Thanks for posting these Draut stories.<br /><br />I apparently like Draut's later work better than you do...slicker, to be sure, lacking the rough edge of his Prize work. But still solidly drawn, showing a degree of care many artists lose later in their careers.<br /><br />Though Seditionist has a point, much of Draut's 60s work still seems to have been drawn on large pages.<br /><br />To me it seems the effect of the size change wasn't so much that drawing flaws became more obvious. Rather it seems that many artists felt cramped, and began using closer shots, fewer figures in a panel, simpler backgrounds, etc.Smurfswackerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11807173070389349098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25254614.post-9592461442807451602010-05-22T04:51:31.044-07:002010-05-22T04:51:31.044-07:00About losing stuff as time went by: You have to re...About losing stuff as time went by: You have to remember that in the later 60s, the original pages got reduced by about half. So a lot of stuff that disappeared in the reduction to print size from the larger boards became apparent when the original pages were reduced. The finished work was a little less homogenized, sometimes flaws became more apparent.The Seditionisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06054750794702860380noreply@blogger.com
