    does anyone know what equipment Michael Turner used in his sketches? Only the shading in his sketches doesn't come off like traditional pencils and I'm not sure what he used to get the effect. It looks very simple and elegant and I'd be interested in any information people had on that. Thanks.

    well don't know exactly wat he used but his technic was kinda simple.
    he would draw out the sketch of what he was drawing. then erase it to the point were you could still see the lines. he would then redraw it and add details.

    here is a sample of one of his sketches (unfortunately marvel chose to published another version)
