Why this book? Well, obviously, the spectacularly beautiful women. But there are plenty of cartoonists out
there—and illustrators too—who draw beautiful women to much popular acclaim.Why does this book matter? Why has there been so much interest from a large and fervent fan
base for a behind-the-scenes look into Frank Cho’s process of anatomy-building? What makes him different from so many others mining a similar girly vein?
For starters: Because Frank is going to pass the test of time. There is an underlying classic quality to his work that transcends the sensationalistic dressing. Which has much to do with his study of a wide array of time-tested sources and inspirations, and his ability to reimagine them in a delicate balance that adds up to something new yet timeless.
The balance is the thing. If too much of one influence predominates, a drawing becomes a pale imitation of that influence. Traces of influences and inspirations will always be present in the work of any artist, but the work of artists who transcend their influences features a careful blending of those influences in the right proportions and creates something unique.
Frank’s influences and inspirations are varied and balanced with great precision within his work. To be honest, I have no idea as to how much of what we see of Frank’s wonderful output is calculated and how much is pure, spontaneous instinct, but the combined results can’t be denied.
I think, as relates to this book in particular, it’s safe to say that Frank’s greatest inspirations come out of American illustration, particularly that of the early twentieth century. He’s made no secret of his study of the techniques of Franklin Booth, Joseph Clement Coll and Dean Cornwell, but what I see when I study Frank’s work is the importance of Charles Dana Gibson’s renderings of the female character in grounding the style he has developed for himself. Gibson created a pen-and-ink version of contemporary female beauty that absolutely dominated popular taste in fin de siècle America. His renditions featured a perfected idealization of feminine beauty as well as a sex appeal that, while tame to the point of nonexistence by today’s standards, was considered pretty hot at the time.
Frank picked up a certain amount of Gibson’s masterful penmanship in his ink line, but what most interests me is what Frank learned from Gibson’s anatomical proportions and the attitude he put into his women. Gibson used decidedly heroic proportioning in his figure work: His men as well as his women are exaggerated idealizations purposely imbued with a sense of larger-than-

life nobility. They are members of a school of figure rendering with ancestry at least as far back as Greek classicism with descendants continuing through N.C. Wyeth, J.C. Leyendecker, Alex Raymond, Al Williamson and right up to Frank’s girls.
Frank understands the use of heroic exaggeration to a specific purpose: His depiction of the human form is an exaggeration, but it’s a thoughtful exaggeration that always lies within the realm of the reasonably believable. You’ll never see a Cho figure contorted into the boneless hyperextensions so common in typical superhero anatomy that pretends at naturalism, or one of his heroines constricted and ballooned into insect-like fetishism. He’s a cartoonist, but one who keeps more in line with the informed, subtle exaggerations of Norman Rockwell or Frank Frazetta—distortion that enhances the message without destroying the credibility of an objective viewer.
And, again, it’s all about balance and proportion. The other important element in Frank’s work that I see linked to Gibson is attitude. The
expressions and gestures that define Gibson’s women—casually alluring, in command, never rattled for long—imbue Frank’s femmes. The full skirts and S-Bend corsets have been shed for fur bikinis and spandex, but the poise remains the same.
Why is this important? Because it gives Frank’s work a degree of timelessness that will transcend the popular look of any given moment, of any passing trend: It will always wear well.
A classic understanding of proportion within human anatomy is the bedrock underlying Western draftsmanship. Ignore it if you wish, choosing to believe that a knowledge of the rigorous skills necessary to translate the three-dimensional human form to accurately representational 2-D illusion is by now an unnecessary artifact of past aesthetics, but I’d argue that all knowledge is important and useful. Pablo Picasso, Charles Schulz and Jack Kirby all got the fundamentals under their belts before making considered decisions about reduction and distortion. They didn’t assume they could get by, could communicate well enough, without that deeper understanding.
Let’s just say that we can all learn a thing or two from Frank’s classic structuring of the human form, no matter where we might end up. His is the solid foundation on which many brick houses can be built. And that, in my opinion, is why Frank Cho.
Of course, if you’re here just to check out the spectacularly beautiful women—that’s okay too.

Art is about communication. Drawing enables the artist to translate his ideas into physical form. The ability to draw the human anatomy is one of the foundations of being a good artist. What I’m going to show you is the classical ideal of the female anatomy, which is best suited for comic books, pinup art and other representational art in the popular entertainment industry.
I will not address the elementary lessons of how to hold a pencil or drawing basic shapes. I will assume you have a general knowledge and skill level in art. We’re going to dive right in and hit the floor running. In this chapter, the basic form, anatomical landmarks and general physical measurements are focused on to help you understand and draw the female figure. Also, to aid you in retaining the anatomical information and to improve your figure drawing, personal observational notes are attached with the figures in hand. But to improve as an artist it’s paramount you draw from life, models and photographs. DRAW EVERY DAY.

Eyelashes make the woman, but when drawing simplify them by grouping the lashes in clusters and try not to draw individual eyelashes. Eyebrows, like the eyelashes, should be relatively simplified and drawn as a singular mass.

Like all women, legs come in a variety of shapes, but the general rule of thumb is the larger the butt, the thicker the thighs. Try not to draw women bow-legged, because people will talk.

Now that we know basic anatomy, let’s move these gals around. Again, it’s essential that you draw every day. Repeated drawing of the human figure will enable you to gain a visual understanding of the body’s structure and its dynamics. It will also help you understand the general movements of the human body.
Loose gestural drawings and sketches will be addressed throughout this chapter. Various knowledge and disciplines of the human body will come to play. The importance of twisting, turning, bending and exaggeration of the anatomy will be highlighted. The more knowledge you have, the greater range you will have as an artist, and more ease you will have at reaching your visual outcome.

The ink technique in this chapter is inspired and influenced by Franklin Booth, one of the great artists of American illustration from the early twentieth century. This technique is to control your ink lines to essentially mimic the effects of engravings and woodcuts.
Before I start inking, I reduce the form to its simplest elements. I see the figure in terms of shapes, cones, cubes and spheres, and how the light and shadow will play across its surface. With that in mind, I divide the image into various clumps and ink the darkest area first. Leave the lightest area last to ink in thin lines or not at all.
You’ll need a very steady hand, organizational skill and patience to master this ink technique. Not for the weak of heart.

I wanted to draw a woman wearing a large flowing dress against a big window. I wanted to ink the rich and vibrant folds of the dress but midway through realized it was a fairly boring picture. It needed more drama. The picture needed to tell a story.
Step 5: Continued by inking the dress, dark areas first. Step 6: Moved on to inking the figure.

So I sketched out a new idea incorporating the old drawing. As I was drawing it, the idea of Bernie Wrightson’s illustrated Frankenstein book came to mind, especially the image of Doctor Frankenstein’s dead girlfriend after Frankenstein’s monster killed her. I decided I wanted to show the scene when she meets the monster. I wanted to capture the creeping terror in the woman as the monster silently reveals himself to her with the terrible deed in his mind. I used Micron Pigma pens, sizes 08, 03 and .005.

Step 8: Inked in the drapes.
Step 9 (opposite): Adjusted the arm and inked the rest.
Step 7: Started inking the background.

This image started as a basic exercise and study of fabric folds, which grew into a lovely pinup of a reclining woman. I started with a loose scribble. As the drawing progressed, I started refining and detailing after getting the basic structure and anatomy down.
Once I had the drawing to my liking, I started inking the dress. Since the dress was the original focus of the illustration, I paid close attention to the fabric folds and how the light and shadow reflected off the surface.
Always ink the darkest element first, using thick ink lines. Add the lightest element last, using thin ink lines.

I went through a few sketches before settling on this image. The idea was of a mysterious lone woman sitting in a snowy wasteland. I wanted to capture the solitude of the woman and the vastness of nature. This was achieved by making the large black sky the dominant element of the image against the small image of the woman.
I wanted to add texture to the vast night sky and give it a sense of wind movements instead of painting it a simple black. I used Micron Pigma pens, sizes 08, 03 and .005. I used a watercolor brush with black ink in some of the heavy black areas. I added the snowflakes using dabs of white acrylic paint.

After form, color is the next logical expression of art. Color is one of the most versatile arsenals of the visual medium. It can capture light, inspire emotion and influence the tone and message of the art.
Usage of color can be complicated or simple, depending on the artist. I use an easy sense of color when painting. I try not to deviate too far from the primary colors. I put the most details and brightest colors on the figures or areas that are the most important elements of the painting. It’s simple, direct and the most effective way of painting.
General rules: 1. In watercolor, you paint from light to dark colors. 2. In oil painting, you paint from dark to light colors.

Another color scheme I use involves making the important figures or areas the brightest element of the picture against a dark background. It’s a basic spotlight approach pioneered by Caravaggio and Rembrandt. This visual approach is very simple and very effective.
I like to use primary colors and don’t mix the paints into a dizzying collage. When I paint, I like to bathe the central figure or figures that I want the viewers to focus on with warm colors and place them in a cool colored-background.

Step 7: Blocked in the background color using acrylic paint. Normally I would have the background mapped out and painted in first but I was still trying to figure out the background design when I drew in the female figure. I didn’t nail the background design until I saw the rough color of the woman and built the background around her. All these uncertainties could have been avoided with a tight color study and guide, but I often like to start from a central figure and then fan out, and see what happens.

Step 8: Refined and finished the painting. I purposely used acrylic paint for the background to give it that matte finish and used oil paint for the female figure. This is done to give her the rich, lush appearance that will stand out against the flat background.

I always wanted to tackle a large painting. This is a large nude oil painting that I've been working on periodically for a few years during my off time. I wanted to paint a life-size woman reclining in a semi-dark room with a soft light spotlighting her. As you can see, I wanted her face to be the focus, so her face is the brightest element in the painting.
I used the traditional method of painting the background first and the figure last. This was done mostly in "wet-on-wet" oil-painting technique. I'm still working on this piece.

This was a large experimental vertical painting. I wanted to create an image of a figure that blended into the background, and her face and torso were the only clear things in the painting.
I worked backward by painting the figure in completely before dealing with the background. I added the background by dappling in a single brush stroke of color at a time without blending, to give the illusion of hazy snowfall.

Step 1: Penciled in the woman leaning against the log.
Step 2: Inked the pencil drawing using Micron Pigma pens, sizes 08 and 01 with sepia color ink.
Step 3: Loosely blocked in the overall color-scheme using warm colors. I wetted the paper first with water, using a large house painter brush before I applied any watercolor. I had to work fast while the paper was still wet, which makes mixing and blending the color easier.
Step 4: Refined and finished the painting. After the watercolor was dry, I went in with colored pencils to help define the figure. I also used Micron Pigma pens with sepia ink to detail the eyes and hair.

Drawing with ballpoint pen is a tricky thing. Once the ink is laid down it’s permanent. Drawing with ballpoint pens is something I accidentally stumbled upon in high school. Bored with class, I would draw endlessly for hours in my notebooks with my ballpoint pens. Gaining confidence, and class detention, with each passing pen stroke and marveling at the versatility of this writing instrument. From there, I grew to love the ballpoint pen as a drawing tool. The overall effect of the ballpoint pen drawing is similar to that of a silverpoint or pencil, like you see in Renaissance-era drawings.
Drawing with ballpoint pen is like sculpting in clay. I add layers of details and tonal value over the figure and build up the delicate shading gradually over time. You need to be patient, since any mistakes will be unforgiving.

Art is about communication, especially in comic books. If the reader has no idea what you’re trying to say or what the story is about, then you’ve failed as a storyteller.
A good comic book storyteller can tell a story with just images. Comic books are a fine marriage of novels and movies. I see comic books as movies on paper and often treat them as one when I draw comics.
I often write things backward. When I wrote Liberty Meadows, I always started with the punch line first. Once I settled on a punch line, I then tried to figure out how to set it up. This backward style made writing jokes in four panels that much easier and more efficient. After a while, I started thinking of everything in four panels.
Now I write comic books and screenplays, and I still work in this fashion. I start with the ending first and then try to figure out how to steer the story into that conclusion.
Most pages should have a visual punch line. It is the panel where the most important thing is happening on that page or the most important information you want the reader to notice is on the page. It is often the biggest panel on the page. The bigger the panel, the bigger the visual impact.

When drawing fight scenes, have the characters lean into each punch and kick. Have the figures twist and turn. Show the strain and the impact. Same thing when illustrating horror scenes: Have the characters recoil in terror or disgust. Make the characters’ facial expressions and body language reflect their emotional state and situation.

As I have stated before, to illustrate the point that you can tell a story visually without dialogue, I’ve crafted a short story starring my creator-owned character, the Jungle Queen. You can see that each page has all the visual information the reader needs to understand and propel the story forward. It also has the visual punch line in each page, the body language, the physical exaggerations and logical panel structures that conclude into a neat visual ending of the story.
I hope you enjoy the story and hopefully learn from it also. Good luck, and keep on drawing, folks. For all you completists out there, this is the Jungle Queen’s big official public debut. Be sure to check out further adventures of the Jungle Queen soon.
I’m a constant tinkerer. I wasn’t too happy with the T. rex’s head and its tilt. So, over the course of illustrating the story, I kept making small changes to the T. rex right up to the point when I started inking the double page spread.
