Artists that I hate so good.

Ok.  Lately I've found my self buried to my useless nipples in work and things that require my time.  When I sit down to draw, it can be very hectic, and I find myself adding to the pressure that already exists.   I step away and go revel, yea, lanquish in the creativity of others.

Under;  ART I HATE SO GOOD, I'll share with you the artists, from who I wish I could leech talent.

The range will be wide and today I start with someone in the middle.

Bosnian-British Comicbook artist...

...Adi Granov. 

Call out the name Adi Granov to comic fans and chances are they will strike the Iron Man “three-point pose” – that iconic striking-the-ground pose (featured in Iron Man Vol 3 #76), which was not only immortalised in polystone by Sideshow Collectibles but is also heavily featured in the Iron Man movies and cartoons

The 36-year-old Bosnian’s breakthrough into mainstream comics came in August 2004 when Joe Quesada (Marvel’s then editor-in-chief) announced his arrival as one of Marvel Comics’ “Young Guns” – a group of artists with the qualities that make “a future superstar penciller”




Why I enjoy his work.


Granov's technique unique and his pieces universally speak to me.  His wardrobes are realistic without feeling pathetic.  Alex Ross often attempts the same thing with spandex, but never quite comes so close to real but heroic like Granov.


Granov has also become the Master of machines in his treatments with Tony Stark's armor.

Realistic forms with smooth and slim anatomy. 

Look at the images belo and compare them to the  metal skin versions of the 80's when Iron Man wasn't the premier Marvel hero, he was everyone's favorite Shellhead.

Check out the Iron nipples...  not really inspiring and it doesn't look all that invincible.
