Details

This is a sheet with sketches / studies that served to find the correct facial expressions, anatomical postures and composition of a scene in a story when making the Tom Poes daily comics. For example, on this sketch sheet there are some drawings that were used for the legendary Bommel stories. First the sketch was made and then the final/completed drawing in the day strip. Just like Hergé, Marten Toonder was also a perfectionist who devoted a lot of time to the quality of the Bommel daily strip through pencil studies. The sketch sheet is signed lower right.
