Learning From the Best: Steve McNiven

Steve McNiven is a Canadian artist who became well known in the media after drawing Civil War for Marvel. He is now drawing "Old Man Logan", a Wolverine story by Mark Millar for which Steve may get a prestigious award.

If you like photo realistic style, take a look at Steve's work. Study his lines, and then using photo references, try to mimic his style but also, add some of your own. You don't want to become a McNiven clone, just "inspired" by him. Try to produce vivid and impacting artwork like Steve does.

The following are sample drawings from "Old Man Logan".
