Did you happen to scan (or photograph) the sketch / planning phase of this commission -- this is one of those "complex" perspective pieces that I love seeing the steps in the construction of the piece (perspective grid, etc.).••• It's not as complex as you think. A pretty simple three-point perspective.

WOAH !!!
Thank-you John !
I'm more than happy with this one. I wanted a more dynamic commission, and i always had this picture of Jen falling in the street (i guess from the FF ?). I also enjoyed Thundra. So i asked for this one. And it rocks.
Funny thing : i almost make the mistake myself, and Jim did the same : thinking Thundra and writing Titania !
4th She-Hulk. I must admit that next to my commission collection, i've also started a new one : a collection of refused commissions (it must be my 4th or 5th ?). I guess not all my ideas are good !!
; )
And thanks to Ari for telling me by mail ! Just when i'm back from work, it's so cool !
David

Awesome.
And I like how She-Hulk's foot covers up an area that one of today's
hotshots would have put in a detailed camel-toe for the sad boys to enjoy.
Great, great piece of art!

Images like this are what hooked me on comics as a kid! How could anyone see this and not want to know what happens next?

The angle and perspective are gorgeous as many have already pointed out, but what attracts my eye the most are the varied line weights. Just perfect: limbs closer to the camera have thicker line weight, and areas underneath or away from the main light source have thicker line weight. Wonderful.

When I have tried to teach line weight to eager young minds, I usually start by telling them, at least in the beginning, to think of the line as a heavy elastic band stretched around the figure. This is not 100%, but it points in the right direction, and gets them thinking about where the line would be under tension and where it would be "relaxed". From there they can get on to working out the practical application.And, of course, the near/far, light/shadow part is pretty much a gimme!
