J. Scott Campbell cover and his photo reference model.

Why even use reference? He completely lost the relaxed natural body pose.....

 

I was glad to see the tense pose. It works with the newspaper headline "Spider-Man Frightens Citizens" with Spidey webbing his way behind her.

Apparently there's some pent-up demand for good reference books..

Isn't this still in print?

Locke and Key's Gabriel Rodriguez stands out to me as well. His work is just masterful on that title. I don't know if I'd call him a master of anatomy or if I'd call him a master of body language, which could be a different side of the same coin.

In that case her face doesn't match the pose. It looks unconcerned.

 

Arched eyebrows. Down-turned mouth. A pensive and concerned look. But while I know nothing of any modern Spiderman stories (around the 20 centers is when I stopped except for a brief foray into the 252 black costume bit) my assumption is she has an interest in Spidey. She is wearing a Spidey t-shirt. And the pic on the wall - no idea but it could be her and Parker (or whoever Spidey is today).

 

So if she does have an interest in him, real or just imagined, she seems concerned for him.

I think you're giving him too much credit.

That's what I see too. Very closed off body-language, hugging her coffee and herself at the same time, tucked legs. It's a physical "if you get hurt, I'll be crushed".

She looks like she could be watching The View

 

Serious question. What is "The View"?

If I answer this one the thread will get locked

Just a correction, but that is a cosplay recreation photo, not a reference he used :grin:

Thanks! (thumbs u I just grabbed it from the portfolio offered, assumed the context.
