    3:00 I agree. The more you draw the less you need to construct everything. I find myself now starting pictures with the arms first or a simple action line and still coming out with a well made sketch. It's as if the drawing simply falls into place.
    Also, I'm drawing things in different perspectives now. I use to be afraid but realized that it benefits me more to just go for it. Using an action figure helps a lot with this.
    Btw, I love this channel. I'm considering Joining it to support it. It's like a virtual text book.

    Well kim jung gi. drew all his life. he is amazing because he was able to constantly draw constantly throughout his life. He did not automatically create his amazing scene. Also he probably made mistakes while drawing throughout his life. But this is good starting point to get a understanding of his abilities.

    • @umario992
      @umario992 3 роки тому

      I know that I am 3 years late to the party but I have the book and I had to take a break from it to learn perspective from other sources. The book spends 6 pages on perspective terminology and jumps right into techniques and construction and leaves a lot of perspective 'rules' untouched. For example, I didn't find anything there about tumbling boxes (when you tilt the box on the x and z axis), the nature of 3 point perspective and how to place that 3rd point and so on. It's a good book but it doesn't feel like a perspective book but a book on how to use your existing knowledge of perspective to construct forms from imagination.

    • @coded8527
      @coded8527 2 роки тому

      @@umario992 I think the book expects you to have at least some prior knowledge of perspective before starting it. I've been planning on jumping into it but I decided to read perspective made easy by Earnest Norling. I'm a little over halfway done with it and its more geared toward people who have pretty much no understanding of perspective.

    There was an article (or was it a video? I forgot) that states that Kim Jung Gi spent hours in browsing things that he has interest in at that current point of time of the day and started drawing one object from different perspectives. He'd continue to do it again and again and again with the same object for hours untill he's satisfied. After that he'd do everything else that he needed to do for the rest of the day.
    So in short, yeah, you're right. Mileage and experience. Draw more, observe more, draw some more again and again and again and again. Kim Jung Gi even stated that he often screws up even when people sees his work as amazing (he has a healthy self-criticizing attitude) and he even wasn't shy from saying that he'd make things up tiny details that's actually different from real life objects that he's based his drawings from (from his visual library). And to top it all, he does so while enjoying the process.

    KJG has this fantastic ability to visualise things before he draws them and it can be intimidating, but looking at his sketchbooks one thing becomes apparent: he draws ALL THE TIME. At a restaurant, at a talk, waiting for his car to be serviced, in a museum, on the street...
    So leave that phone in your pocket and pick up a pencil! Like Indy said: "It's not the years, it's the mileage."

  • @atomaalatonal

    thats all the best way to learn drawing. start simply, as simple as you need. think the blocks etc. in 3D and perspective. then the way up to blocked figures in all sorts of perspectives and gestures. drawing it all day and night long, then start sketching loosely. it may not kick in inbetween the first weeks, but at one point its like you said. you just no more relying on the blocks, you just start sketching freely. you jsut need to do it daily and not overpacing. one thing to be worth mentioning tho is, just combine the blocking with shading. right away from the start the simplest rectangular blocks. just imagine the source of light and shade the blocks. it will boost your abilty to sketch out fast drastically, when you go further on details.

    One thing I heard somewhere is that five point perspective is just one point perspective with curved lines. If it’s above and to the left of the vanishing point, then the vertical lines will bend so that they bend up to the right, and down to the right. The horizontal lines will curve so the ends of the line point down. It’s actually quite simple once you can imagine a grid.

    The problem is that most aspiring artists think watching tutorial videos is as good as practice. Like it's a shortcut to somewhere. Sure you have some idea of the things you need to do but that's like seeing a signpost. You still have to trek and get mileage on your understanding of the fundamentals through practice. It is only then, the things you learn in these videos will be put to use. So keep at it. I myself draw my commissions while I watch the series ( awesome job by the way James, I like the skit you put it which is new from most of the art channel in YT) then try out the techniques he used in my spare time.

      Also, I think it's worth mentioning that so many people totally discount the years of very specific and very rigorous practice that Kim Jung Gi has under his belt. Yes, he has a skill that very few artists have and he practices that skill with unprecedented competence, but he has built up hundreds of hours of drawing in a more traditional manner, bolstering his visual library and developing techniques.

    Lol. I drew a model car like 5 times. Now I can draw cars. Around the 3rd time, you start to learn what cars have in common. The 4th time and you start to realize why cars have these things in common. Certain curves nd shit have aerodynamic function and most cars have them. The 5th time, you barely gotta look at the reference. In terms if perspective, idk. I did fisheye and perspective stuff in kindergarten. Not tryna flex but, I was also eating worms nd drinking from puddles at this age so, cha boi was a simple ass thinker. A puddle was water. A worm was protein. Everything was shapes. I could not draw flat, 2d forms for awhile because nothing looked like that. And my one friend drew 3d stuff in the class before me and taught me before I ever tried drawing so, that helped. Fisheye just came into play cuz I wanted to fit more shit on a page and it still looked good enough. So yeah. If you wanna remember how to draw something, repetition. If you wanna draw in perspective gi style, repetition, I guess? Idk. I just kinda draw that way cuz ive always drawn that way. To simplify, force shit into the intuition zone. It can take like a week or less to do with something if you’re obsessed with it....except colour theory. I still find those watercolour masters fucking scary. Like, gi is scary. But, I at least know where that monster is from.

    Could you do a video of like how to apply form and anatomy into stylized drawings e.g anime. Similar to how artist like Artgerm do. No one has covered it yet even though it's pretty popular in the illustration world.

      I like this Idea, maybe I'll make a series breaking down particular artists' styles. I don't typically draw anime, but I love it and I'd be more than willing to try!

      You don't apply form and anatomy to stylized drawings. In reality you apply stylized drawings to form and anatomy
