The last video of this year.

Full Lore and Backstory of Chivalry Medieval Warfare & Chivalry 2
Is that a Greg Land meta joke that you traced this video on the Comic Tropes one, just with less talent and details?
Personally I think he should be banned for trying to brainwash kids into p**n. It's pretty sick knowing children will be looking at the images while he laughs inside knowing the real image behind it. No wonder marvel and DC love him.
Does Greg know about A.i? He could make Marvel really happy with the speed the slop A.i can make
tell me you know nothing about comics and deadlines without telling me you know nothing about comics and deadlines. LOL wtf was that scribble of a knight on your X profile?
Traced corn and plagiarism.. just wow
Alright what's step 2
Yeah, I hate that he traces, but the fact that it’s corn gives me a little bit of respect for him. Looks terrible, but is f*cking hilarious.
2000ad was the only comic that could actually ship out to Macedonia without costing a fortune on shipping and now i own so many progs and collections im almost done collecting the nemesis the warlock series
Here we go with another person thinking that artists own poses 🙄🙄
you're defending a tracer
You are extremely confused about what the issue here is my friend
Not related to the vid but i found this in my fyp and you just happen to cover my two biggest special interests rn and I had to sub, this vid has really good paced editing and i hope this channel grows big !
If Greg Land didn't have a job to which he had to meet deadlines a normal artist wouldn't meet up with, would he still be tracing art to this day?
1:22 frankly I'd rather he draw them older than what they are, given his... source materials of choice
Tracing from zorn is WILD. When you're a gooner but still need to get the paycheck.
I mean, if you’re practicing a certain art style or want to draw something for yourself, it’s okay to trace. However, for official comic books, tracing is ridiculous. The time it would take for him to trace other people’s work could be used to actually create his own lol
I was really confused when people started ranting about this because there had been a Wizards article where he detailed everything. I can see the inconsistent faces would be aggravating though. Worth noting that tracing and assembled art (another subject of ranting, especially around CAD) were pretty core parts of cartooning, being essentially what a light box is for. I’m not exactly bothered by shortcuts when the page rates are what they are, Greg just got a little _too_ lazy…
i think why Land keeps getting work besides a high turnover rate, is because comics at the big two is a bit of a good ol' boys club. people who wouldnt get hired elsewhere get jobs at marvel/dc because they have friends or connections in the upper levels at those companies. also, i wonder if land can even draw still without resorting to tracing everything? probably can't because he's so used to it.
1:00 that's not Sue Storm, it's Arcanna from Squadron Supreme (sorry for being kinda 🤓)
The GregVers or The TracingVers. Just came to say this
This is the straight version of those cropped gay porn memes with non-sexual context captions
Lol, I have that book, the comic book pose book. I couldn't believe his tutoial was about TRACING. And of course, because it's a Greg Land image, he completely nerfed her hips and legs. I think this man is sexually attracted to funnels.
The problem is the industry that paid him for theft anyways
Ive cobbled together references out of various stock photos and images and my own photos. Its a very different endevour than just tracing. Mainly because you have to actually think about what youre doing
I can´t tell if you´re defending him or not
@r.a.fgattaiguy845 Oh no Im talking about Alex Ross' method. The reference part is key here. Because reference is not the same as tracing. Reference is a core and important part of art, a visual library that you can look at while drawing. Especially useful if youre like me and have full aphantasia. Tracing is just lazy and results in bad work that doesnt make sense or even look good because there is no effort or time put in to understand the image. Especially the way Greg Land does it. There is a way to use tracing to learn, but its very very different to Greg Land. It focuses on the shape and not the details. Its how I improved my poses because it helped me to focus on the shape and the feel as apposed to the fine details that I got stuck on and thus ended up with a mess. greg land is just sad as an artist tbh
Why the hell are male comic artists so damn WEIRD when it comes to drawing teenage girls??! Why are these dorks constantly sexualizing characters that are supposed to be LITTLE GIRLS??!
because western culture is in general very weird when it comes to teenage girls
FOR THE GLORY OF AGATHA!
He would be a great commercial storyboard artist
You know what, thanks for pointing me to Alex Ross. I was feeling very insecure over having the same technique, using self-made references in drawing. Good to know that I can still make it if I'm being original with it.
It is very common for artists with classic or traditional training to use photos as reference. Even someone like Alphonse Mucha (the art noveau guy) had models posing for him and taking their picture, like how Alex Ross does. What isn't ok is to downright trace.
To trace 🌽 is crazy, kids be reading these comics dude. The goon grind never stops for him ig.
People like Greg Land makes my goal of becoming a comic artist seem much more achievable
Yeah he real "enjoys" his job. Do you think hes allowed to watch prn on the job under the guise of "research"
This guy was doing AI art before AI is a thing
Tracing and reusing art is fine, and if you’re open about it and giving the originals credit, can do his job on time AND do it well. By all means he is an artist. just stay away from the 🌽.
one important part about being a artist is creating something and this is hard to do when you are copying something already done like you can literally see how this hurts the comic with inconsistent characters and out of place motion
He is an artist! A pretty bad one
I definitely hate his tracing bullshit but AT LEAST HE DRAWS IT! I’m shocked he hasn’t utilized AI for his bullshit
I'm not defending this guy's "art" or even insulting this other artist I'm going to mention, but why is it that Araki, the author of JoJo's Bizarre Adventure, can get away with tracing poses from fashion magazines? To the point where Araki actually has drawn stuff for some of those fashion brands. Now, I love Araki, and at least he doesn't trace the same stuff over and over again, but that seems weird to me. Again, no shade at Araki though, he's a million times better than this guy lmao
To be fair at least with Araki, he doesn't trace every single thing when it comes to his works.
Araki makes those poses work in context ngl. Like it adds to the strangeness and drama of the Jojo franchise.
hunter x hunter author too
because Araki has his own artstyle and very rarely does it, meanwhile doodoo boy can´t draw a woman without putting the paper over one of his 12 active tabs
@@seancrosby6837 Went back to this video to mention that even the source material that they get their poses from makes a huge difference. Araki gets his from fashion magazines, while this artist even uses adult material for his references, especially women. That alone rings alarm bells for me.
I don’t know about Neutral Evil. Chaotic makes more sense when it comes to the specific source material.
Ya know, tracing royalty free images? Meh, anatomy be hard. Tracing over your own art again and again? Okay sure, deadlines be damned and why not save some time. Tracing CORN???? Yeah... That's a no from me dog.
I think one reason he traced from CORN is so people can't found the source/ not notice they're plagiarized.
Gave Iron Man a mouth, nose, wrinkles through his suit and just thought it was good enough. Can't believe editors didn't get him just straight canned after that. How was that shit approved?
IRON man bro, how did they let him run with that shit????
Bro tracing porn for your job as a comic artist has to be thebmost down bad degeneracy I've ever heard of. It's actually disgusting and obviously lazy af. Man must have swiss cheese brain from overconsumption
Are you speaking english? You sound like you have 10 dicks in your mouth. UA-cam ain't for you brosephine.
did your dad touch you again?
Well....I wasted my time learning consistency and all those drawing techniques for comics. All I needed to be hired at Marvel was tracing and zero shame, like Mister Land here... I got my portfolio rejected twice by Marvel, and Greg land makes a living out of comics by tracing porn and stealing art from others... And then people ask why manga hits ells comics so hard.
I would suggest speaking slower if your target audiences include American-based Enlglish speakers. The captions helped me a bunch but they missed the mark and so I had guess and/or keep rewinding to understand certain parts.
I think he kind of a big troll. One day he thought, "I bet I can draw a girl sucking a big pee-pee and get it published." and he is trying to see how long he can get away with it. It doesn't matter if people notice and call it out, just that Marvel/DC sign off and put it on the shelves.
the main character of Wanted is totally Eminem. It's a bit distracting but the rather nasty storyline makes up for it. they deliberately made Wesley look like Eminem as a way to try to convince him to be in the film, which is pretty good and not as nasty as the comic.
Funny that you mentioned Wanted, cause I was thinking of buying and getting into it recently.
This mf really made 3 different comics with the same covers and nobody said anything. This gives me hopes that I could make a comic, because nobody in the comic industry gives a fuck
*the **_#ORANGEshirt_** still looks like he's in a **_#PRISONcafeteria_**_._*
To be honest, I will always love the weird yet interesting ways comics with interweave real History into their world building. ( Great video man, amazing editing and just comedic timing, I hope this gets more views )
Hilarious and 100% accurate. Great job!!
I really loved his work on BOP 1999 and was extremely surprised to find out that the Greg Land that drew that series is the same Greg Land as this one 😂
