Thank you so much for sharing this, doing all the work and having the courage to interview all of these great artists! I actually have had a booth in Comic Con artist alley in Tokyo, Osaka and Okinawa the past few years, and this info really helps!

Don’t no why this came on but enjoyed the convo

how to become a pro artist. take your time and have an imagination

I love this!!! Yes, i subscribed😉

Instead of "fuck it, it's over" We need to use "fuck it, we ball"

oh great, now talent isn’t important for creating ‘ART’. Haha. Tell that to history’s greatest artists.

If you do fan art how do u sell it without getting in trouble with copyright

Wow this video is so encouraging! Do you have any more like this? Great stuff!

And here I was only yesterday feeling so frustrated and disappointed with myself I felt I was going to be sick. This is so simple! Thank you so much, this really just saved me from more frustration than I needed to suffer through!

This is really great advice. After art school, I spent a few years just wandering aimlessly through the motions. No passion or drive put into my work. But last year I refund the spark and a style I love to work in. Persistence really is key

Very interesting video, thank you

6:52 please include your cat in videos more 🤯

David Finch wooooooo!

Methods will only get you so far. After I grind alot my heads where I draw intuitively look way better than the classic strict loomis or rilley head attempts. Am I just coping or is this actually why I like grinding drawing from reference more than just trying to brute force learning certain methods. Is this cope or is there a truth to it? Of course a balance between method and intuition is whats probably the best.

So this is what Rusty Cage has been up to now

"Talent doesn't help" Is the artist's equivalent to "Money does not buy happiness" told by rich people. Just like money, talent isn't a magical thing that makes everything possible without effort. But instead is the key trait of each human being to develop any skill across their life, since it is in fact the ability to easily comprehend and process some mental/physical patterns above others. That's why everyone is talented in something, yet not in the same thing. While is true that to success in any field you must put a lot of effort (because, once again like money, talent is not a magical thing that works on itself), if you have become a successful artist (for example) it is mostly because you have a talent to comprehend and process arts better than others. You still have to walk the road, you still have to put the practice and training, but for you, talented individual, is gonna be much easier.

I still think talent is critical lol.

Even in Robert Greenes book Mastery (talks about process of mastering a skill). He says you should never chase the money, because at some point if you spent all your time chasing and not developing skills. Someone younger is just going to outshine you

that doesnt sound like David Finch's voice - weird

I'm gonna guess the dog's the best out of the 4 🗿🙏

How can you make art like batman lets say and sell it if you aren't authorized to sell the character? if u sold a batman print that u drew and made $5k off of it and DC catches wind would they hit u up for a cease and desist order?

Just use more expensive materials

Sup

audio is too LOW.

Super insightful interviews thanks so this !

Can’t stand when artists do all fan art stuff. If you didn’t work on a comic or IP, maybe have a piece or two that you did for fun, but I’d rather see your original work. When I go to conventions I don’t know how many people I see that just take a frame from the Deadpool movie and redraw it in pencil. And people are buying that crap. I don’t get it. It’s not creative and it’s not being an artist. It’s just wanting to make money. And they are wasting space at conventions and possibly keeping a “real” artist that does original work from having a space. I actually wish that Marvel and DC would kind of police conventions and stop people from selling their Batman (or whatever) art if they didn’t ever work as an artist on the comics. Artists complain about AI stealing their art, but then they are selling Spider-Man pieces at conventions.

The formula to succeed as an artist: 10% talent + 90% work = 100% Skill

I think you should upload on Podcast platforms too. That would be awesome.

So happy I found drawing, it is the ultimate self development tool and the cheapest of hobbies with endless of variety. No season passes, subscription fees, microtransactions, etc etc.

Nice video. Although doesn't apply to me, I am 69 and retired. Now i spend many hours a day drawing, sketching and learning.

This dude is so insightful. I came for the stuff about balancing art aspiration with family responsibility, as I'm going through it right now. As expected, he hit every point. Ryan's two part discussion series with David Finch is one of the best things I've ever heard on You Tube. Thanks for this Kristian.

Talent is small compared to commitment.

Great content, following the Proko scheme. I would recommend having each artist's name visible during their chats, so that people that don't know them can look them up and discover their art & support the artist.

Some of this advice is stupid..

I was really interested in this video until i had to turn my 70" tv up to 64 to hear the video properly and then I left Sorry guys

Thank you very much for this video.

Keep up the good work Kristian. We all should strive to be Tommy Wiseau.

9:55 I feel the same everyday too

Thanks a lot for this Kristian! David Finch is one of my favourite artists, always great to hear his thoughts. Peter Han is legend too - I’m currently in his Dynamic Sketching class✍️

I’m thankful that my hobby isn’t my occupation. How would I come home and relax if I’ve already been sculpting all day.

This was excellent. Some of the best and most sought after artists in the industry ( David Finch being my favorite penciller) sharing the grounded, real world stuff at the core of a world of artistry that seems so fantastical and many levels out of reach for most of us. Very encouraging and educational. Thanks for doing this.

Art and Business is an abusive relationship. Art is all about pushing the limits for beauty. Business is all about low expenses vs high profit. If an artist has a month to do a painting, they will take a whole month to make it beautiful. Business wants to have 1000 paintings done in a month for maximum profit. So no, "talent" is actually counter productive. Finding a way to make simple, easy and cheap things that can be mass produced is what business needs.

Loved this conversation! Thanks for making this dude!

I’ve watched Jim draw on Twitch and he talks about the body a lot when drawing so you can get an angle or body motion down.

Instructions unclear, accidentally created WW3

Am I the only one that thinks that leg looks awful? Each striation is roughly the same width and fairly evenly spaced light and dark

I love the energy of this video. It’s very helpful to get people motivated.

I would like to elect this man president

Quick answer: Draw, only draw.

So many nuggets of wisdom in this interview. Thank you
