About
This brilliant and simple introduction to the mannequin is a great place to start before delving into the Comic Art Visual Storytelling lab. In this stand-alone session, you will learn how to construct a versatile mannequin figure that you can rotate and position throughout the panels of your comic book in order to work efficiently and draw figures consistently. This is a great entry point for beginners, but can be a great tool for experienced artists to improve upon, as well. About the instructor: Brian Atkins is a St. Louis-based illustrator with over a decade of experience penciling, inking, and coloring comics. His creator-owned comic work includes The Family Graves and Final Street, and he is an inker and colorist on G.I. JOE for IDW. Brian is an experienced educator, being the head instructor of Ka-Pow!! The Comic Art Academy, and teaching courses at Webster University. What to expect: 49 minute video lecture. The live class was 90 minutes with Q&A, edited here for the recorded version.
