That advice about the face being a circle with bent paper is literally genius
I literally had an enlightenment. I felt like my life is no longer the same, divided into before and after this video. I'll go draw some heads
think it was sycra who came up with that
though he wasn't credited
I accidentally used the bent paper while drawing hands in the past, it worked really well
I saw that in a Sinix video, but it is possible for people to come up with the same idea independently
The anime mouth thing is a perfect example of the problem of people copying style over substance. Anime mouths are drawn that way intentionally to save time because they can keep the head as a single drawn frame and then only have to animate the mouth, not the jaw line as well. It saves on the amount of drawing they have to do which is essential for what they’re doing but not super useful for people wanting to copy the anime style who don’t know the intention behind what they’re seeing.
Glad to see someone understand the intention and reason behind that. You will sometimes see anime that have fully facial feature on side view of a head when they want to convey the important of a scene. That one from K-On was for cost and time saving, but people just copied it mindlessly and then claim anime look dumb.
3:49 Imagine abandoning your lips to go talk on the side of your cheek
Couldn’t be me.
Man, I absolutely hate it when people copy the “anime art-style” of making everyone’s chin pointy as heck. The worst part is when these type of people ask for feedback and you point out the chin and they go “No actually, it’s the aRtStyLe”.
It's probably a lot easier to forgive something that's entirely unrealistic like a mouth misaligned with the entire head than be bombarded by something being wrong and not being able to tell exactly what. Jaw movement, plus mouth movement, skin stretching so on.
it’s not even just that I think it is also the fact that people don’t actually know what they’re doing and they’re not willing to seek out new information to get better at the craft because they’re not passionate about it but they are trying to make money from it most times😅
i really love how you don't even have an intro, you go straight to the point
I have absolutely no idea why so many people are shaming other youtubers for having intros
@@smokebomb024 people click on a video for the content that the title tells them about. sometimes intros are very long, it's nice when videos get straight to the point
@@smokebomb024 but of course, no one should outright shame creators for having intros. this person didnt do that though, they were just expressing appreciation for how straight-to-the-point the video is (which tutorials and similar videos really should be imo)
you know shes a good artist when she can make her donts look good for some reason
Yes 😂 my don’ts like like someone who doesn’t even know what they’re doing *at all*
I’m so glad to see the “sheet of paper” method!!! I remember learning about that technique in a Sinix video yearrrrrrrs ago and it was such a game-changer!!
it was nicely quick and straight forward and super helpful !!
We are so glad to be able to help!
okay but the bent piece of paper advice is golden. i've never had something explained so simply yet thoroughly and easy to comprehend. definitely subscribing! this tutorial is great!
The bend paper for face angle is very useful! Thank you🤍
I genuinely never learn anything from art tutorials, but winged cavas… you guys are just like- the way I learned how to draw people. Thank you guys so much!!
I have been struggling with head angles for YEARS using the ball and shield method. You just completely blew my mind with the paper method.
FOR YEARS when I was younger, the techniques I was taught to draw heads (many shapes, cylinders, lines, etc.) just never made sense to me, and it's why I went for a more "cartoonish" style.
The shield/bent paper and dotted line down down the side to bring the forehead, nose, mouth and chin out are SO SIMPLE AND EASY!!
Thank you so much. You've earned a new sub from me! ♥♥♥
perfect guide, you're awesome ♥
I've been drawing for over 6 years and tutorials like this still always help me out. YOU ALWAYS HAVE ROOM TO IMPROVE ON SOMETHING!! You will NEVER be able to 100% master art.
I have never heard of the bent sheet of paper thing. That’s so smart! Definitely trying that my next drawing I do
This video sold me on subscribing to you. You go in depth of the rights and wrongs of drawings, and I think its important for everyone to know that. Thank you for actually teaching in depth.
This is my favorite art channel to date. All of the information you give is extremely helpful. I've been drawing since I was 11 and even now I still have trouble with some of the basics. Thank you for all you do 💜
YOU LITERALLY JUST BLEW MY FUCKIN MIND WITH THE PAPER METHOD
I just found your channel and I wish I could like… hug your face bc u have SAVED my art I never understood the lines and circles when building a sketch, but you broke it down so simply and made it easy to apply to any art style, not just realism/semi-realism. And for FREE? You absolute saint.
I've been crashing and burning with drawing faces recently, and I feel like I used to draw them better. I hope this will help me out.
I never knew about the shield. Imagining a shield that rotates around a ball makes this so much easier for me!!
My mind was just blown by how the thought process of "bent paper" helped improve my perspective.
Squeeling with joy when i tried the paper method. Definitely gonna be a gamechanger
DUDE-
This was all I needed to subscribe-
Like, I struggle with head angles so much and this seems so simple and elegant!! I absolutely love it! Thank you so much for posting this, I'm beyond thrilled to try this out when I draw some more this summer!!
I love your videos so much because they teach you without being intimidating. Like, it breaks things down so wonderfully that it’s so simple to follow. Please keep doing what you’re doing, because you do it amazingly!!
I've watched a lot of your videos and I love how simple but specific your explinations are! Thank you for helping artists, like myself, improve our art issues :)
I hate watching tutorials videos because I usually get bored but you went straight to the point and actually gave some solid advice. Thanks! 😁
This is amazing how you explained heads in a simple way for everyone to understand.
This is a great help, honestly underrated channel, love your tutorials, short and to the point! :)
Great tips and a quick video! Thank you so much
Omg! This is the first video I found of yours and I can already tell you are gonna help me a lot. It’s hard to find actually helpful art tutorials on youtube, or generally just for free so I really appreciate it!
I felt a key open something in my mind when you used the paper method. I’ve never heard of that method in all my life of drawing. It’s really helpful!
It amazes me how many new tips and tricks I learn all the time. Thank you so much
thank you for taking the time to make and share videos like these!!! This is very helpful!!!
this is sooo so so helpful thankyou! It makes drawing faces from different angles much easier and fun now
This vid is simple and short but the advices are really helpful. Thanks for the tips!
"that ball and shield method" I FEEL SO CALLED OUT
OMG! That bent sheet of paper is the awesomest drawing tip I've ever seen. Thank you. That's gonna help so much.
I hope...
aaaa thank you so much, I’m binging all your vids rn, it’s like my 3rd eye is being opened. Can’t believe you don’t have more subs, these are some of the best tutorials I’ve seen on yt.
your tutorial is gold its like simple bit plain helpful tysm
I was having a very hard time trying to practice heads, your advice about the bent sheet of paper helped me a lot with the perspective. Now I finally feel that I´m making some progress. Thank you!!
The plain circle and square was what I always used, I'll definetly use more lines for angles! Thank you!
thank you so much for these videos!
Thank you for making this less than 10 minutes. Straight to the point
The paper-face technique really helped get my mind around the shape and perspective.
I tried drawing a side profile, and now thanks to your advice it actually looks good!
Thank you Jessie ❤
you're explanations and methods and so quick and simple to follow I love it.
Envisioning a sheet a paper for the face has to be the single best piece of art advice I have ever heard. Immediate improvements with drawing faces.
Thanks for the lessons that are easy to follow. Also, about why some anime has an oval for a mouth in a sideview, im pretty sure its just a cheat during animation process so that they can pump out these serieses faster
very simple and sweet! improving side profiles is a big goal of mine
As a new artist, this helped a lot. Thank you.
Dude all ur videos are always super helpful and u get straight to the point tysm
This is literally so helpful, thank you!
This is the most simple video I’ve ever watched about how to draw heads. You’ve earned a sub!!😁
This is the best video for heads i have ever seen.
I never knew how much I needed this so thank you
Very helpful thanks 😊
I loved the intro lol
Edit: I’m noticing a LOT of mistakes in my drawings from the videos I’ve watched from this channel so far.
Concise and clear to understand! Love this video!
I like how clear your explanations I learned something new today!
Wow from the paper sheet trick onward, my mind was blown! Tysm
the bent paper thing is literally the best thing i've ever heard than you so much
This video is a powerful guide and art tips ngl it's underrated
Thank you very much! 💛
That paper tip is AMAZING! You are genius!
This really helped me! Thank you!
Took a break from drawing, ive been struggling with faces and this video showed me exactly why, ty ty.
Thanks. Very helpful and to the point.
Great Lesson!
That bent piece of paper tip was super helpful! Thank you
Goodness, I've been watching these videos quite a bit lately and you're a great teacher XD
I can't believe it!! I always struggled with perspective in faces and this HELPED ALREADY IN 5 MINUTES!!! YOU ARE AMAZING, THANK YOU!!1
From watching this I have found that I actually use all of these tips already, I think that the head is my strongest point as a draw a lot of them, If I’m drawing a full pose, it’ll include a head, if I’m drawing just the head and shoulders, there’ll be a head! I’m definitely not perfect and need to work on my art outside figure drawing especially with outdoor backgrounds but this just gave me a little boost of serotonin.
(I use the loomis method for anyone who wanted to know)
Thank you for this video, I have been struggling with how to draw heads and this has helped me a lot
