Perspective is a tricky subject! 🤓 Join our digital art class to improve your angles and create depth in your art with our professional instructors: www.wingedcanvas.com/virtual-art-class/digital-art
When you are drawing in any pose using prespective you must determine your vanishing point and i always use geometrical cylinders for arms and legs when i draw. If you want to use cylinders for foreshortening .If your foreshortening is pointing toward you will slightly widen those cylinders.
I’ve been doing this subconsciously for a while now. After starting my first year in art school I definitely payed a lot of attention in my art history and drawing class. Me seeing foreshortening in paintings during my art history class really helped me start doing it in my drawings. Of course I was told about it a bit in our drawing studio as well but only when we starting doing figure drawings.
I love how your videos are helpful and easy to digest in a small amount of time! I have a short attention span so it’s hard for me to watch tutorials but yours are so easy to understand and very helpful in a short amount of time! ❤️
I’ve been struggling with this for years and you just explained it in a way that I finally see where I was going wrong! Not sure if I’ll get it right yet but at least I can see it now.
i really want to thank the youtube algorithm for recommending this video to me because as a non native english speaker i would never have searched for the word "foreshorten"
I'm delighted to have found this amazing channel, your tips are really good and easy to understand for beginners. Keep up the good work! Abraços do Brasil! (:
I have a completely different perspective on foreshortening now It's like a cartoon-ish art style (that just happens to hold ground in reality) Real neat-o advice here
This is what really makes digital art, I hesitate to say 'easier' but, maybe.. more streamlined? Cause you can do all those forms and then go over them without destroying your paper 😭
The amount of stupidity I felt when you showed me if I close one eye and put out my arm, then bend my elbow.. how did I not know this is how things work.? Either way, thank you so much-
These videos have actually taught me how to do this a bit of a hybrid way: with cones! Both methods have their pros and cons but in doing my own analysis of pictures and my own limbs, I started realizing that especially with arms our hands serve as the horizon point, and our forearms work as likes reaching towards it. I’ve had difficulty doing it with either method, especially the spiral method, but viewing it as a sort of horizon view actually makes it a bit easier with my art style cause I go for more cartoony shapes and aspects with humans. I think where my issue came from is that especially with more extreme poses, more and more of what isn’t the main focus point gets lost and gradually grows less noticeable, which doesn’t translate well to methods like spirals and especially not the shape method. I recommend other people try that out of the spiral method and the form method aren’t doing you too well!

People: art is such a creative and free thing!
Perspective: is literally math
Going to give it a try and see how it goes! I'm still struggling with the subject of foreshortening and perspective(especially perspective)
How did it go?
@@eduardo_332fr how did it go it’s been a year

The first lesson we got on drawing techniques class was to make a distinction between forms and shapes and damn if I still forget how useful they are

I know right she's able to get what you need yo know right off and even shows the don't and a lot of visuals

So nice 😻
literally saved my life OMG
Well thank good I pay attention to geometry this year
this was literally so helpful! tysm :DD

Sorry to break your streak, but...
*I* DON'T STRUGGLE WITH FORESHORTENING AT ALL! *MANIACAL LAUGHTER*
Great video :D
nice :D

I think what makes it so hard for me to draw foreshortening is the fact i have to think about the 3d shape and that i cant draw the whole arm.

why were you using medibang?
Ah so that's why my Spider-Man drawings have better foreshortening than my non-Spider-Man drawings. There's actual logic behind it.
