Thanks. I'm really trying to incorporate the European artists I like into the
old American Illustrator style. I suspected there were European influences
on certain artist like Dean Cornwell. Looks like Cornwell was influenced
by Fechin.

If I can combine super designy forms with good edges. I think I'll have my style.

lol He man anatomy is pretty awesome. Still trying to figure it out myself.

I think as it stands you have a pretty distinct style. I mean there is def. enough divergence from JCL for it to stand on its own, but certainly it will evolve as your tastes change. Can def. see the relationship between cornwell and fechin, but with a guy like Fechin you will have a tough time finding illustrators who dont have some signs of his influence. I kinda feel the same way about Hopper and Lautrec. In any case, keep it up, it is great fun watching the evolution.

I use painter for these studies. I use all default settings
with the oil brush and bristol brush. I have a rule for studies
like these. All on one layer and no ctrl z I miss painting
traditionally and painter gives me a quick fix

Usually painting em perfect to maintain form and unevening them
up seem to be the best route to go
