A GREAT idea! I'd especially like to learn to ink in Illustrator.

Hey Higalack, just thought I'd throw in my two cents…

I highly recommend two books by the Brit artist Glenn Fabry:

1. Muscles In Motion: figure drawing for the comic book artist

2. Anatomy for Fantasy Artists

The first book contains hundreds of renditons of female muscle taken from video clips of bodybuilding shows and excercise videos. Very useful. This guy isn't afraid of drawing very buff women.

The second book contains several pages of a character called "Sonia The Adventurer" a buff mohawked chick ( I'm going to use her for a reference in drawing Rampage or She Hulk) Again, his renditions of female buffitude is very useful for the artist who wants to draw powerful women but not always rely on male photo references (which often leads to a "manly" drawing).

Both books can ordered from Amazon.com

Good Drawing!

Just joined this board a few days ago, so I’m late into this thread. Actually, Rampage has made several recent appearances in the Superman titles, the most recent being the crossover with Mr.Majestic of Wildstorm Comics. And nowadays the artists draw Rampage the way I like her; Big Muscles, Big Mohawk. (Although they can’t seem to make up their minds about Kitty; One minute a leggy knockout and in her most recent appearance, FAT! )

I think Rampage has the potential to be good ultility hero, like She Hulk. In fact I’d like to see her be a part of Birds Of Prey. Think of the contrast with the Bird Babes and Rampage. She’s as smart (or smarter) than Oracle and her connection with S.T.A.R Labs would be good for any ass kicking Tech they might need. This would also help with Rampage’s training. Her fighting skills are terrible. She’s the "Worf" of the DCU. ( In the early "Next Generation" seasons, Worf always got the shit kicked out of him, just to show what a badass, the aliens were. Even the Ferengi man!!)
