Bart Sears' Drawing Powerful Heroes: Brutes and Babes V2!

Created by Bart Sears

We are back with the second volume in Bart Sears’ Drawing Powerful Heroes series of definitive, how-to-draw books by Bart Sears. This second volume will be a massive, 144-page oversized hardcover, and continue one of the best how-to-draw series ever published. Completely written and edited by Bart Sears, this edition will be perfect for beginners and more advanced artists alike, as well as anyone interested in the art of and creative reasoning behind drawing powerful comics. Acclaimed comic artist Bart Sears taught an entire generation to draw with his Brutes and Babes column in Wizard Magazine, which was the bible of the comics industry for a decade. In the pages of Wizard, Bart presented dozens of drawing and storytelling tutorials, providing an expansive education in comic art and illustration.

Hello, Brute Force! 

We have more amazing art from the Brute & Babe Pin-Up Project, which features original Brute & Babe art by a diverse array of   spectacular comic artists. The original illustrations are being offered as rewards, so you can own these one-of-a-kind art treasures.  Our second batch of super-cool Brute & Babe pin-ups come from renowned creators David Finch, and Tim Seeley with many more artists to come!   

Tim Seeley has made a name for himself as both an artist and a writer, including credits on Batman and Robin Eternal, Grayson, Nightwing, Green Lanterns, and more at DC, Shatterstar at Marvel, and his acclaimed creator-owned series Hack/Slash and Revival. Tim’s also an old-school Ominous fan, as he shows in this incredible piece of Babe going up against the evil Insidious! Our money is on Babe! 

The original art measures 11 inches by 17 inches. This Tim Seeley original can be yours for a pledge of $600 or more. The reward also includes both digital and physical copies of Drawing Powerful Heroes: Volume 2, and a print copy of the Blue-Line Drawing Guide

Each of these pin-ups is a singular piece, so pledge now! When they’re gone, they’re gone!

Thanks!

All my best,

Hi, Brute Force!

As this juggernaut of a campaign keeps chugging along, we want to talk about some art rewards that you can get right now at certain pledge levels. We have four incredible covers still available from Turok, John Carter and Ghostbusters. These one-of-a-kind covers are pulled from my personal collection, and I’m offering them only as part of this Kickstarter. If you’ve always wanted original art from me, these are the ones to grab! Or, you can choose from one of the awesome interior pages from titles such as Unity 25, Sabretooth, Bloodshot, Death of Pheros, or Scream!
