HNH Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 I am an illustrator and would like to learn more about traditional style designs. Does anyone have suggestions on where to start? Tracing flash sheets, emulating artists I like, etc.? I wanted to reach out to people on this forum because I would like to learn the right way and respect the tradition of the style. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment https://www.lastsparrowtattoo.com/forum/t/8022-flash-technique/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
bongsau Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Find some books on Sailor Jerry. https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=sailor+jerry&rh=n%3A283155%2Ck%3Asailor+jerry I'm sure he's rolling in his grave with how accessible the designs are.
