So, I really enjoy the art of Tradd Moore. But Sadly until now he only worked on Luther Strode and Ghost Rider.
So i come here to ask, are there any other artists with a similar art style? Especially in the way they illustrate motion and force. Any art where you can not only see, but also FEEL whats going on.
I am just a sucker for those extremely overexaggerated motions and proportions.

try Ryan Ottley's stuff if you're looking for a more traditional take on the overexaggerated action stuff.
Tradd Moore's particular brand of heavily stylized motion linework is pretty uncommon. To my knowledge he's the only one that does what he does (while having it still look good.)

Put far too much pressure on your pinky holding the pencil.

Then draw.

If you think anatomy is the god of art you'll never have a judgement of art worth listening to.

Anatomy aside there's nothing great about guys in stiff action poses in a sea of blank space.

thats from "Baki, Son of Ogre". Its the 3rd Manga in the series,

>>83286875
You have to see the whole chapter, There is always a buildup and than a stop frame for most punches.
I can understand you if you say it looks like crap. It really does. But the artstyle is extremely expressive. You can really feel the impact.

It's the "god of art" when it comes to drawing humans well.

You might as well defend Liefeld while you're at it.

I know I said anatomy aside but if they didn't look like a bunch of lumpy masses of elongated flesh this would be better. And I say that because:
1. The poses themselves would have more energy in them if the body flowed with them instead of constantly jutting outward. Then he wouldn't have to rely on an overabundance of action lines.
2. It's pretty hard to discern these are even supposed to be people at times. Maybe anatomy isn't "the god of art" but its at least a good priest.

>pretty hard to discern these are even supposed to be people at times
not that anon but half the point IMO
>>
>>83287311
Reminds me of aeon flux or the Alexander animation.
>>
>>83287416
>>83287467
You totally have a point.
But i do think alot of the energy comes from the overexaggerated anatomy and impossible poses.

Do you have an example for an comic with strong energy in their action while keeping the characters realistic? Whould be interesting to compare.

There's A LOT of manga artists that do this.

The dude that does Baki the Grappler has a similar style.

Black Lagoon has some vague similarities in the gunfights.

Masamune Shirow kinda somewhat has elements of that to his style. Check out Appleseed, Dominion, and Ghost in the Shell.

Black Joke has hardcore crazy action scenes.

Trash might be borderline.

Deathtopia maybe slightly.

For western stuff there's Officer Downe and some of Frank Quitely (to a degree, especially in Jupiter's Legacy).
