Liefeld Appreciation Thread

[BLACKVULCAN]

I appreciate Rob Leifeld like i appreciate my lazy uncle who comes to stay with me.
I always wondered why heroes with super powers needed so many damn pouches on their costumes.Hawkeye i could understand but not the others! I mean did they keep spare change in all those extra pouches in case they had to take a bus or something. dumb ass designs!

 

[UK_Stu]

ah, but you see the reason for so many shoulder pads and pouches, is it means less actual anatomy needs to be drawn. Draw a bicep? hmm If I put a massive pouch there I won't need to bother.

 

[Brian Braddock]

It's a wonder Liefield doesnt just draw everyone as giant pouches then.

Giant pouches holding hairdryers.

You people are criticizing the M.C. Escher of our generation and you should be ashamed.

 

[Johann Krauss]

I think I might have to kill ob Liefeld now...

 

[Killgore]

Oh, and this might have been posted already, but I didn't see it if it was. If so, apologies...

What the hell is up with that floating head?

 

[TheCorpulent1]

Heroes Reborn Cap was a mannequin fetishist.

 

[bunk]

I'm more bothered by the floating hand/forearm. 10 points to anyone who can identify the thumb.

 

[Brian Braddock]

I was bothered about that too - until I noticed that Cap seems to have a giant piece of Licorice stuck to the undercarriage of his pants.

 

[Odin's Fury]

I think that's his foot. His tiny tiny pesky foot.

(I secretly love Liefeld because of the joy he's brought me over the years....for all the wrong reasons....)

 

[Manic]

Is it me, or is his left leg looking kinda weird from the knee down? It's like the bottom part isn't attached, and is just sorta glued to the bottom of his thigh.

 

[Dark Victory]

Wow my cousin has his autograph. I have to show him this.

 

[Brian Braddock]

I guess when it comes down to it; no amount of energy or enthusiasm can make up for the fact that he's a bad artist, and most likely forever will be.

Having said that, if he went to a few life drawing and anatomy lessons - I guess it wouldnt exactly hinder his chances of improving.

 

[wobbly]

I think that's his foot. His tiny tiny pesky foot.

With where it's placed and how its drawn it kinda looks like Steve is wearing an odd shaped strap-on...

 

[BLACKVULCAN]

I appreciate Rob Liefeld like i appreciate having diarrhea on a mass transit system. what i wanna know is going on with my boys neck. i guess thats suppose to be veins but it looks like he's got scurvy or something! bleah!!!

 

[[A]]

Ugh.

 

[Nasty-B]

Uh, let's see, where to begin:
1. Only two fingers on the right hand?
2. The knife is...well, weird
3. Torso is entirely circular= no shoulders
4. Arms are disproportionate and coming out of his back

I like the hair though. Very creative Rob.

 

[BLACKVULCAN]

Heh dont forget those everloving pouches on his outfit.He's gotta have those. plus "Wulf" what the hell is a "Wulf" oh i see he means "Wolf." you know there were probably some little kid who tragically misspelled wolf on a spelling bee and is scarred for life due to this comicbook. Way to go Mr.Leified.

Leifield is one of the reason i don't like Wolverine now. he did so many feral characters "wildchild", Bloodwulf" and ummm "Feral" trying to maybe get some of wolverine popularity that i got sick of those guys.Again I appreciate Leifield like i appreciate Christmas fruit cake from my Aunt.

I like how Liefeld managed to draw only two pouches

 

[joke]

But he compensated by making the bootkneepads X-TREMELY! large.

 

[[A]]

I'm sure he went all mad about the dustcloud not bein' big enough to cover the guy's feet and he had to draw one

 

[Spike_x1]

That is if you can call what's been drawn there a "foot." It looks more like a pickle.

 

[CBG]

I'll never really understand how or why Liefield STILL gets work.

 

[Brian Braddock]

I like how Liefeld managed to draw only two pouches

Hmmmm, Only 2 pouches?

Obviously an attempt to embue a more hightened sense of realism (and thus, credability) to his work.

If so.......



I'd say he's got a tad more work to do in that area, wouldn't you? He needs to brush up a bit on, you know, the little things; anatomy, perpective, foreshortening etc (I wish there was a 'sarcasm' smilie).

It's funny; Liefield gets a lot of criticism for copying other peoples work but here's one book that I don't think people would have a problem with him stealing ideas from:-

C'mon Rob - give it a go. You might learn something.
