Career [edit]

Early piece of work [edit]

Hughes, who had no formal training in art,^[thirteen] began his career in 1987.^{[8] [xvi]} His showtime comic book work was a pinup in Eagle #six. He penciled two short stories and the first result of Decease Hawk, created past Mark Ellis. In 1988 Hughes became the penciller on writer Mike W. Barr's detective series Maze Bureau, as his portfolio bore samples of both that series and Mike Gustovich's Justice Car. Maze Agency, published by Comico, and edited by Michael Eury, became Hughes' first regular serial and his first color work. Despite wanting to draw activeness-oriented superhero stories at the time, he credits his piece of work on Maze Bureau, whose scripts Barr composed in the total script format, with improving his skill and confidence at storytelling. In a 2004 interview, he stated that this work also developed his preference for character-oriented stories over action-oriented ones, both as an artist and a writer. Hughes' interior pencils were inked by Eury's longtime friend Rick Magyar, and because Hughes aspired to ink his ain work ane day, he took Barr's suggestion that he produce pinups on each consequence's back comprehend as an advertisement for the next issue to do inking his own pencils. It was around this time that Hughes switched to inking with a castor on the advice of Dave Stevens when Stevens looked at Hughes' samples.^[17] Hughes stayed on the serial for a year.^[18]

Afterward two years of providing background fine art or interior pencils on independent books, writer/artist Nib Willingham, who like Hughes, had done work for Comico, introduced Hughes to Andy Helfer, the editor on the DC Comics serial Justice League America. Helfer was impressed past Hughes' portfolio and asked Hughes to contact him when his contract expired. A few months afterward, after Comico went out of business, Helfer contacted Hughes, hiring him initially to draw inventory covers for bug like Mister Phenomenon #19, i of Hughes' favorite creations by Jack Kirby. Hughes was then made the regular creative person on Justice League America, with result #31 being his first published DC Comics work.^{[11] [19]} At the time he began on that book, he was still working at a comics store two days a calendar week.^[twenty] He connected doing covers and interior art on the title for ii years, before switching to providing covers only.^[21]

At the age of 24, Hughes moved to Atlanta, Georgia to join Gaijin Studios, assertive that working more closely alongside boyfriend artists would improve his own skills. Hughes stayed with Gaijin Studios for 12 years.^[15] That same year, he penciled Comics' Greatest World: Arcadia #three for Dark Horse Comics, which featured the start appearance of the supernatural character Ghost. He drew that character subsequently in the 1994 ane-shot Ghost Special. When that character was given her ain series in 1995, Hughes penciled the first three-issue storyline, "Arcadia Nocturne".^[18]

From 1994 to 1995, Hughes drew the satirical storyline "Young Helm Take a chance", which appeared in the first several issues of the adult comics anthology mag Penthouse Comix. Hughes also provided a painted cover for issue #ii, and a pinup in consequence #26 in 1997.^[18] In a 2011 interview, he indicated that while he did non regret that work, he felt shame at the time he produced it, as he feared it might end his future prospects with companies like Marvel Comics and DC Comics, and because he feels that depicting full nudity is less fulfilling than just suggestive art. Hughes explains:^[22]

I firmly believe that drawing a fully clothed, beautiful adult female is more than sensuous than a completely naked, laying on a table getting ready to go in for a True cat scan. I firmly think that it's what you hint and suggest—that is more attractive—and that goes for both men and women. When you get into total nudity, and swing for the fences with the nudity, it can exist titillating at offset, but afterwards a while yous get kind of tired and kind of spent and decide "Hey, you know what, I am just going to become spotter the ball game." I think that you need to have the mystery, and that layer to exist peeled away so that the interest remains there.^[22]

In 1995 Hughes wrote and illustrated the 1996 two-event miniseries, Gen¹³: Ordinary Heroes from WildStorm, his first writing assignment. Because he did that at the WildStorm offices in La Jolla, California, he spent evenings in the suite where the studio's books were colored, where he learned how to color with Photoshop from colorists Homer Reyes, Ben Dimagmaliw and Laura Martin.^[23]

In belatedly 1998 he began a four-year run every bit embrace artist on DC's Wonder Woman, producing 49 covers for the series. He likewise provided encompass art on Tomb Raider from Superlative Cow Comics. He would eventually gain a reputation as ane of the all-time known and distinctive comic book embrace artists.^[7]

2000s [edit]

When Wizards of the Coast created their 2000 d20-based Star Wars RPG, Hughes created designs for both the original and revised core rulebooks, as well as the Star Wars: Invasion of Theed adventure game mini-RPG. When he reused his portrait of the Jedi guardian, Sia-Lan Wezz (his favorite character), for the embrace of the 2005 one-shot Star Wars: Purge as a gag, at that place was such editorial interest that she was written into the story as i of Darth Vader'southward early victims.^[24]

In May 2007, Sideshow Collectibles debuted a miniature statuette of Mary Jane Watson, a perennial honey interest of Spider-Man's, based on artwork by Hughes. The statue, which depicts Mary Jane wearing a cleavage-revealing T-shirt and low-cut jeans that expose the elevation of a pink thong while bending over a metal tub holding Spider-Man's costume, generated controversy amid some fans who felt that the statue was sexist.^{[25] [26]} Marvel addressed the thing by stating, "The Mary Jane statuette is the latest release in a express edition collectibles line. The item is aimed at adults that have been long-fourth dimension fans of the Marvel Universe. Information technology is intended merely for mature collectors and sold in specialty, tendency, collectible and comic shops – non mass retail." Sideshow Collectibles stated, "Our product is not produced to make a political or social statement only is fashioned afterwards entertainment properties currently in the marketplace place (sic). We suggest that if yous exercise detect the Mary Jane product offensive that you refrain from viewing that spider web page." Elizabeth McDonald of girl-wonder.org, an organization dedicated to "high-quality character delineation" in the comics manufacture, was incredulous at the statue's design, though she stated, "Honestly, the difficulty with this statuette is that if yous're a adult female who likes comics, it's non fifty-fifty noteworthy. Many male comic fans tin't understand the outrage it's generated, since this is adequately tame within the industry. This portrayal of Mary Jane could be considered superior to some in the industry, since her clothes don't seem to be actively falling off her". The Toronto Star'due south Malene Arpe echoed this, pointing to female characters with even more revealing appearances, such every bit Black Cat and Witchblade.^{[27] [28]} Gary Susman of Entertainment Weekly lamented that the statuette was not issued some weeks earlier, and so that it could have been included in the website x Zen Monkeys' list of "Ten Worst Spiderman Tie-Ins".^{[29] [xxx] [31]} Sideshow subsequently released several other statues, or "comiquettes", based on Hughes' depiction of other female Curiosity characters, including Black True cat, She-Blob, and various X-Men-related characters.^[32]

In 2008, Hughes created a poster of major DC Comics female characters as a giveaway for that year's San Diego Comic-Con to promote the publisher'southward upcoming projects. The poster, called "Existent Power of the DC Universe", features xi female person characters continuing and/or sitting abreast of one some other, like to a Vanity Off-white gatefold layout. Per DC's request, the characters are more often than not clad in white outfits rather than their familiar superhero costumes. Hughes, wanting to avoid making the poster look like a bridal magazine layout, gave each outfit a dissimilar color temperature. He also gave each character a distinctive style. The garment worn by Wonder Woman resembles a Greek-fashion tunic, while the 1 worn by Poisonous substance Ivy features a floral trim. Considering the Catwoman series was coming to an end, DC instructed Hughes to leave her off the poster. Hughes was fond of the character, so he drew her on the far left, figuring that he would edit her out of the final version. However, having seen his progress, DC'southward editorial team decided that that they liked his version and told Hughes to include Catwoman. She is dressed in a blackness latex evening gown with a white shawl. Hughes reasoned that Selina would accept been irritated by being included in the group at the last minute and thus wore the blackest ensemble she could out of spite. The poster's popularity resulted in requests for Hughes to create like ones with men, Marvel characters, etc. Information technology is one of the images for which Hughes has gained a reputation every bit one of comics' foremost cheesecake artists.^{[four] [v]} Nearly this condition, Hughes has said:

I don't know if I embrace the term 'cheesecake creative person'. I don't like hugging anything. Maybe I requite the term a warm yet firm handshake? Information technology's dandy to exist known for being good for something, and it not existence altogether infamous.^[4]

For an article by Hal Niedzviecki on the affect of blogs, social networks and reality boob tube in the Feb 2009 Playboy mag, Hughes illustrated a double-page spread depicting a group of voyeurs observing a topless woman in front end of a computer.^[33]

Although Hughes was announced equally the author and artist on All Star Wonder Adult female in 2006,^{[34] [35]} he explained at the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con International that that project was "in the freezer" for the time being, due to the difficulty involved in both writing and illustrating it himself.^[36] His website indicated that after the current Catwoman series ended with issue #82, he would finish his DC cover piece of work, and would focus on producing the six-issue All Star Wonder Woman series,^[37] though he stated in an October 2010 interview with NJ.com, after the Catwoman assignment had concluded before that year, that All Star Wonder Woman was even so on concord.^[13]

At the 2010 Chicago Comicon, editor Marker Chiarello offered him the art duties on the iv-issue miniseries Before Watchmen: Dr. Manhattan, i of eight tie-in prequels to the seminal 1986–1987 miniseries Watchmen, which would exist written by J. Michael Straczynski, and which would require Hughes to delay finishing All-Star Wonder Woman. Hughes accepted the job of drawing that miniseries, which was announced in February 2012,^{[38] [39] [twoscore]} and premiered Baronial 22, 2012.^{[41] [42]} Hughes commented: "I love Alan Moore's canon of piece of work, with special affection for Miracleman, The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, and most definitely Watchmen. I promise to do some sort of justice to Dave Gibbons' bright art: he's one of the all time great illustrators ever to work in the field of comics...I'one thousand fairly stoked to be working with the fabled J. Michael Straczynski [sic] I loved his Thor run, specially. The human being knows how to craft astonishing tales, so I feel like you & I are in skilful easily."^[43]

Between 2009 and 2012, DC Collectibles produced a series of statues of various female DC characters that were based on Hughes' cover fine art called Cover Girls of the DC Universe. These included statues of Black Canary, Catwoman, Zatanna,^[44] Hawkwoman, Harley Quinn, Toxicant Ivy, Supergirl,^[45] and one of Wonder Woman based on Hughes' cover to Wonder Woman vol. 2 #150.^[44]

Influences and approach [edit]

Hughes doing a convention sketch in May 2009

Hughes' artistic influences include comics artists such every bit Dave Stevens, Steve Rude, Mike Mignola and Kevin Nowlan, classic American illustrators such as Norman Rockwell, Maxfield Parrish, Drew Struzan and Dean Cornwell and notable pin-up artists similar Alberto Vargas and George Petty. Hughes also keeps collections of works by Alphonse Mucha almost his drawing table.^[1]

According to Hughes, he does not illustrate comics interiors on a regular basis because creating artwork whose quality satisfies him takes as well much time for him to produce it on a regular monthly schedule, and that while he is capable of working faster, he is typically dissatisfied with the results when he does and then.^[59] As an case, he points to the 1996 miniseries he wrote and illustrated, Gen¹³: Ordinary Heroes, which took him ten months to consummate.^{[16] [60]} He elaborated on this in a 2004 interview, explaining:

Storytelling is a lot of work, and to be a expert storyteller is a lot of work considering you have to pay attention to it. I recall anybody with enough time under their chugalug can hack out a story. I think anybody can tell a safe story, or tell a story safely. You know, six panels, one head shot per folio, that kind of thing. But to do it with any sort of style or inventiveness requires you to be on the brawl all day long, and information technology's difficult piece of work. Whatever niche I occupy in comics right now, it's the goldfish filling the bowl that information technology's in. I tin can't benefit storytelling and practise it in a timely manner, which is why nobody offers me stories any more. Any artist who does put out regular comics with interior stuff is a better man than me.^[17]

Hughes varies his fashion between projects, sometimes exhibiting a "cartoony" look in his drawings, and at other times employing reference to achieve a photorealistic piece of work in his art, equally in his work for Playboy magazine, in gild to produce more than varied works for his portfolio, should his prospects in the comic book manufacture ever fade.^[15] When given the liberty to illustrate what he wants for a cover, Hughes prefers not to depict action scenes, which he feels is his weak point, merely the "significant" moments immediately before a climactic moment.^[61]

Materials [edit]

The penciling procedure Hughes employs for his cover work is the same he uses when doing sketches for fans at conventions, with the main difference existence that he does cover piece of work in his sketchbook, before transferring the drawing to virgin fine art board with a lightbox.^{[62] [63]} When penciling his convention drawings, Hughes prefers 11 x 14 Strathmore bristol vellum paper, considering it prefers that paper'due south rougher surface, although he uses smoother paper for brush inking,^[64] and he illustrated some Catwoman covers on animation paper.^[65] He does preliminary undersketches with a pb holder,^[66] considering he feels regular pencils get worn down to the nub too quickly. As he explained during a sketch demonstration at a comic book convention, during this process he uses a Sanford Turquoise 4B pb, a soft lead, though when working at dwelling in Atlanta, where the humid weather tends to dampen the paper, he sometimes uses a B lead or 2B atomic number 82, which acts like a 4B in that environment.^[64] However, his website explains that he uses 6B lead, with some variation. For pieces rendered entirely in pencil, he employs a variety of pencil leads of varying degrees of hardness.^[1] Afterwards darkening in the construction lines that he wishes to continue, he erases the lighter ones with a kneaded eraser before rendering greater particular.^[66] For more detailed erasures, he uses a pencil-shaped white eraser, and to erase large areas, he uses a larger, hand-held white eraser, which he calls a "thermonuclear eraser", considering information technology "takes intendance of everything".^[64]

For inking, which is Hughes' least favorite role of the illustration procedure,^[67] he uses a size 3 Scharff brush and Dr. Ph. Martin's Black Star How-do-you-do-Carb ink.^[i] Hughes besides favors Faber-Castell PITT artist pens, which come in a multifariousness of points, including fine, medium, assuming and brush tips, which Hughes uses for brush work on convention sketches. Though he stated in a 2006 interview that he favored PITT pens for convention sketches, but never for cover work,^[64] he after used them to illustrate the cover of ImagineFX magazine #67 in 2011,^[63] and for an analogy of Burn down and Ice for a Justice League card game.^[68] He occasionally will use Copic markers in both warm and absurd grey tones to return covers in grayscale.^[1] Similar to his penciling, Hughes tends to ink different portions of the sketch at random,^[69] though when rendering an attractive female, he begins with the face, so that in the result that he fails to capture her good looks, an entire rendered illustration has not been wasted.^[63] He uses Sharpie markers to fill in larger areas,^[64] which he feels would be too wearisome to render in pencil, such as the costumes of characters similar Batman, which he believes should exist rendered in black rather than blue.^[62] He uses Photoshop to color his encompass work.^{[13] [1]} He initially colored his covers after inking them traditionally, just offset with Wonder Adult female (Vol ii) #195, he switched methods to one in which he renders the greyscale phase in pencil, pen and marking like a painting, and then uses Photoshop'due south Layer tool to colorize each element in the epitome separately.^[70]

Hughes sometimes uses colored markers to embellish parts of a convention sketch, equally when he uses red for female characters' lips, or a silver pen to render scenes set in outer space.^{[64] [71]} When rendering an entire sketch in grayness tones or full color, Hughes, who once used Prismacolor or Design 2 markers, explained at the 2010 San Diego Comic-Con International that for the past four years, he had been using Copic markers, a ready of which a fan gave him as a souvenir, because Copic markers are refillable, and because he plant that they produce longer-lasting colors, and can be used several times longer than other brands,^{[72] [73]} as he was withal using the aforementioned parcel of nibs as of August 2010 that came with the get-go prepare of Copics he was given iv years previously.^[74] When using Copics, he takes intendance to erase his pencils, and to non work dark-to-calorie-free, because of the mottled effects that result from doing and so.^[75] He has conducted demonstrations of Copic markers at conventions on a number of occasions.^[76]
