Simon Bisley Interview

GameSpy: Do you think about light treatment or camera angles or posture when you do them? Or does it just come naturally?

Simon Bisley: No, I actually do think about that sometimes. I do have to think about that. Especially in this occasion when we are drawing some of the female characters. You've got to be conscious of that. My instincts are to draw everything as powerfully as I can. Make it look powerful! But then you've got to lay it back a bit and make the female form a bit more... vulnerable I guess. In certain situations. I almost over accentuate the characters to some degree. If it's powerful I make it really powerful. If it's weenie I make it very weenie. (laugh) I almost go over the top with that. But with this particular strip I've been trying to find a middle ground -- I'm not trying to go too over the top with things. I don't want to stylize things to the point where they become comical.
