Bernet and Brushes
I have been constantly turning to "TEX - L'homme D'Atlanta" by Jordi Bernet for inspiration; his drawings have a looseness and accuracy at the same time which I can't get enough of. His interplay of light and shadow is fantastic, as are the compositions, and...well, basically everthing about it is cool. I've been playing around in Photoshop a bit to get a digital brush that feels more natural to me and thanks to Mr. Bernet's work, I've been getting closer to the mark. I was also given a different type tip for the Cintiq pen which feels more like scratching on toothy paper; I kind of like it so far. Experiments will continue...here's the first.

Hey! That looks great!
Bernet is a favorite of mine too!
Can you show me how to make that brush?
T,
very cool man. i like the look. i use a similar brush for my LUNCHBOX comicstrip. and my storyboards. i agree with what you said about loosness and control.
looks sweet man, keep it coming...
also, ive used that toothy tip you mentioned, but that thing wears out like pencil..weird.
>oVi
Boy, that is a sweet drawing. I indeed see the scratchiness you're going for -- nice!

Great stuff Ted. I think I'll be dropping by for a visit to check out those brushes. (I also want to ask about pen tips.) Can't wait to see more of Cora.
Oh, I LIKE this. Bernet is one of my all time favorites and it wasn't too long ago that I "discovered" him.
New tip for the cintiq pen?
Love this direction
RoboTaeKwon-Z - sure, man. drop on by.
ov! - thanks -- the toothy tip is weird...trying to get used to it.
moth - thanks man!
mr scribbles - thanks...drop by and I'll show you some Cora stuff.
monkeyfeather - thanks! yep, bernet rules!

Real cool. You can feel some difference.
Wanna see more!
Very Cool.
bernet is awesome, but tex isn't one of the better things he did - manuel auad recently published a great monography about him which covers his whole carreer, might wanna check that one out.
thanks guys
tonci - i have that one -- it's awesome.
