Drawing Outside Your Comfortzone – Into The Spiderverse

[image error]

Into the Spiderverse, is the most visually stunning movie I have seen in many year, and is the best superhero movie I have ever seen. Not taking anything away from the joy of the MCU, but Spiderverse is a pure comic book movie, so much so, it is like having a comic book explode in your face. Simply stunning.

I am so enamored with this movie, I set myself a challenge to draw all the main Spiderverse characters from the movie. That’s right, Miles Morales, Gwen Stacey, Peter B Parker, Noir and Peter Porker. Each one has a unique style, from cartoon, to manga, each one would take me straight out of my comfortzone.

Oddly the two hardest to draw out of the set of Spiderverse heroes was Peter B Parker and Peni & Sp\dr, both of which had very different styles. Mecha and human form have, and always will be a challenge to me. But the good thing about drawing out of your comfortzone is it forces you to learn. Oh, if anyone is keeping score the easiest to draw was Peter Porker – I guess because Spider-Ham is the closest to my style.

All the Spiderverse illustrations were drawn and colored using the Procreate App, on an Apple iPad using an Apple Pencil.
