I never comment, but I really appreciate this. I’ve been in a rut with my art for about a year now, and it’s been a struggle to fight thoughts of “If I hadn’t stopped drawing, I would be an expert by now.” When I say this video has completely changed my outlook, I truly mean it. Some of the techniques you’ve shown I had been doing subconsciously, but didn’t understand how to fully apply them. The eraser became my best friend.. and the product is hundreds of unfinished pieces because I was too afraid to “ruin” them. Thank you for reigniting my confidence! Keep up the great work! (:
You worded my thoughts exactly. After eraserhell i began to draw with inks and my pieces were almost never finished since i spent too much time pondering how im ruining it.
LOL. Well for starters, I began the channel a decade ago but left it sitting. I just now resurrected it in May. That's why subscribers are just now coming in. It's been crazy, man.
I am a 62 year old woman. When I see you working, it reminds me of the grotesque drawings I saw in Holland of Leonardo da Vinci in the Teyler museum in Haarlem. Such beautiful details 👍🌷. I definitely will follow your lessons.and try to take my drawings to a next level. I don’t have to make a carrier out of this, but I simply love it. Greetings from Holland🌷🌷🌷
These have been a big help. I always get caught up with how to proceed with my art. Leave your ego at the door when you draw kind of thing. Never really looked into layering when drawing, but it makes sense when one stops and thinks about it. Thanks for the feather demo. Looking forward to the next one.
Beside the very helpful tips for creature design, another aspect of these videos I'm grateful to see is the speed that it takes you to develop a piece. I know you'd be working faster if you weren't occasionally demonstrating stroke technique or teaching/speaking while drawing, but that scope is completely lost for newer or less patient artists that just see the finished piece. So thank you for the reminder that even professional artists need to take their time.
I agree with what you said about using erasers! I use erasers a lot less than i did as a beginner and it forced me to slow my process down and think more, rather than make a mistake, erase it, and repeat. 😁👍
Love it, very helpful! I was never really good with shading and layering and I think one of the biggest reasons contributing to my struggle, was/is my impatience. I realized, not only do I need this techniques, I also need to work on myself haha!
Huge thanks to artist like you who shared your knowledges on UA-cam platform. It helps clear shade of doubt for some of us beginners for sure. Very informative videos and thanks again from your new subsriber!
These videos are so amazing and helpful i have read a lot of books to learn drawing but almost none of them teach how to render the details they all just say work big to small and these videos have been very helpful
Great video...my biggest struggle is free flowing things...water, clouds, hair, fur ..I can'tgrasp it for some reason. But your video here was great 👍🏾 gave me some real help in area I struggle 🙌🏾
Congratulations on your achievement! I think we all agree it's absolutely fitting because these videos are so awesome and helpful! I just found your channel this past week and I'm hooked!
I don’t usually comment on anything but when I do then there is stuff to be said. I can’t thank you enough for this lesson as I sat down today thinking that I will not be able to give texture to my birds I watched this and it inspired me to produce one of the greatest pieces I have done in a very long while. My gratitude is through the roof for you making this. Your pieces are always inspiring and your lessons stick with me better than anything I have heard before! Thank you Mr. Bobby for a fantastic lesson.
I just found you and Pls teach more lessons about shading, sketching, hatchings, value, contrast, perspective with completing this drawing ONE DAY I WANT TO DRAW LIKE YOU !!!
And finally, this is the day where I find someone who hold the pencil the same way I do it: the pencil on top of the pinky and ring fingers. I feel happy
Can't wait for the beak lesson! It feels like I'm not necessarely learning a lot of notions, but I'm learning better, and that is great Thank you for these videos, I'm glad you are happy to share more!!
Hi. Jim from Madrid, Spain (a fellow artist and a New Yorker expat living abroad). Great tutorial on fur and feathers! Best tips for me are creating the overall under layer of tone first, how to hint instead of trying to replicate each hair/feather (though it is also important to detail some of the feathers and fur wherever needed for greater realism) and very cool how you work on the tips of the feather to highlight/hint the illusion of volume. Can't wait to watch the next video on shiny wet skin, etc. And thank you very much for sharing your knowledge and talent with us, specially how you do it (very clearly and very dedicated on the didactic side of teaching). You have a subscriber for life. Cheers from Sunny Spain! 😁👍😎✌
As a possible future member. I’d love to be able to get feedback and be able to ask questions every once in a while… something to think about :) love your art so much. Enjoy your thanksgiving
Realistic but not hyper-realistic, just like I like it! In my opinion a drawing has more charm if it look like a drawing and not a photo. This seems like an enjoyable approach to draw, thanks so much for sharing 👌
Your routine is merging with mine, I appreciate the time it takes to lay out all these points of view in a chronological fashion. The things that help the most are when you stop to breakdown your most detailed thoughts.
Wow. Thanks so much for the showing us how you draw feathers and shorter fur. I’m looking forward to more on feathers, and anything you draw will be great, but I’m hoping to also see you show us how you tackle the longer fur too. All your tips are great! I’m particularly looking forward to using the initial layering technique, the black prismacolor pencil and I love how you add your darks and everything just comes out of the page. Like magic! Looking forward to the next one, and checking out all your other videos, as I’ve only just discovered your latest ones, so I’ve got a bit of catching up to do. Thanks again!
Loving the shift to traditional. Please please please keep it going! Love all if your work I've seen but the traditional pencils have more dimension and feels much more organic. These last two videos have taken my bird texturing to a new level! All my texturing really! Thank you so much for the lessons!
@@bobbyrebholz2183 That does my heart good. I've been drawing only in ballpoint pen for all my practice and sketching just to take my ability to erase away and your technique really clicked with what I'm practicing right now. I can't thank you enough!
Thank You! For your instruction. I liked the top 10 mistakes beginner artists make. I’ve been painting for four years but just began sketching a month ago. I’ve overcome my resistance and enrolled in an art institute. Thanks Terry from Saratoga Springs NY.
Brilliant tut ! Thanks , that answered my question about feathers perfectly. I do a lot of nature, birds, animals, flowers and leaves plus everything in between! This will help with the realism that I’m missing . Great job and congratulations on your monetisation buddy, you deserve it. Cheers.
I could watch this for hours, so interesting and so amazing at the same time ! I hope I can learn from this and give it a try myself one day. Absolutely fascinating drawings.
I'm really happy to have discovered your channel, you made me wanting to draw again! I've just bought a pencil and will probably grab an old notebook thanks of you! I'll religiously watch your content many time ! I'm really happy for you that your content can enjoy greater visibility. I think you deserve it! : )
Really glad I subbed recently. I feel like this came just in time for my own story project. It’s being illustrated via computer, but the fundamentals of what you’re offering are so incredibly valuable. Looking forward to the slimy skin segment lol
Really great! I love how you explain it, I am watching all your videos. Above all, I like the animal drawings, would like to see more of them! Thanks and kind regards from Switzerland, Bas
Thanks so much! This is straight down the avenue I want to pursue. Much appreciated and beautiful work. BTW, I have a crooked ear too lol! It’s mounted about 1/4” lower than the other. Your ear comment made me grin.
Keeping everything real-time, and getting into details on the various technical aspects of stroke movement and grip is incredibly helpful. Came across you randomly, and you're doing some of the best I've seen on YT. Keep it up!
Your process is pleasant to watch and very creative yet concise; creates magical outcomes. Reminds me of Mike Sass fantasy work mixed with Di Vinci portrait building. Excellent style!
I love this! I'm currently studying game design and want to go into the direction of either concept, character or creature design and these videos REALLY help with educating myself for creature design!! Keep it up man, I'm really looking forward to the series
Thank you so much for these tutorials! I´m so glad I found you recently, you make everything so approachable. I use chalk pastels, but I think the techniques will be just as helpful. I´m learning on my own, so no formal training at all, and sometimes it is difficult to see what I am doing "wrong". The fur I drew often came out more "doodle-y" and tangled than I wanted, and after watching this, I think it´s because I drew them too close together and lost the lighter spaces. I would have never come up with the first few base layers either. I´m off to practice with some small beavers and a toucan, thanks again! :)
Ohh those drawings are pretty good.. "lemme adjust my camera so you can see detail" OH MY GOODNESS THE AMOUNT OF DETAIL THAT APPEARED. I was so sure zooming in would still be blurry but damn that detail was sharp even on a 1080p video.
could you please do a video on how to draw whiskers. Is it a matter of being super careful to avoid them while layering, masking them beforehand, or using white to highlight them afterwards?
Another brilliantly inspiring lesson! I can already see how I can use your method of laying down black pencil over graphite would also work for say, the stripes on a tabby cat…I’ve just tried to order Prisma pencils for the UK. Yikes! £15 delivery charge! However Etsy UK do single pencils, (but not the 935 you use- I hope the ebony is similar) Your teaching method is completely absorbing for folks like me- thanks.
Thank you so much for putting all these videos together! I’m a complete newbie and love learning from you. Could you please do some more on fur (especially the shaggy clumpy fur on the underside of the creature in this video, Im hoping to practice a few wolves soon. Thanks a again
🤔 when i try to shade really far back on the pencil like this, everything always ends up looking really grainy. And when i choke up on the pencil more and don't use the flat edge as much, i just get a bunch of dark, hard lines. Is this a problem with the type of paper I'm using? Thanks! Great video 👍
It's definitely not the paper but moreso, the light touch. If your paper is grainy itself, just make sure your pencil is sharp and you have to make twice as many passes for the value.
Thank you very much for your tips, ☺️ I found this really inspiring and truly helpful to help developing technique. I didn’t know how much I really missed making this studies, since the commissions I work on are so varied and many times a different styles, (I love creature design the most). I would love ❤ to see more of your videos because learning with the masters is a great opportunity and gift to embrace (even if you’re a professional already). 🙏🏻☺️❤️
Late to the party, but congratulations on getting monetized! Can't wait to see where your channel is gonna go, now that you're more visible. 🥳 It's quite eye opening to see the importance of layers in a developing drawing. I have to admit that I truly underestimated the power of this approach (which was a bit of a head->desk moment because ages ago I dabbled in digital drawing and the logic behind it is similar), so thank you for another great tutorial that's been very helpful!
I'm getting back in to drawing and cant draw that well but im aiming for realistic art and your tutorials are amazing. Would love to see some techniques for longer hair so I can draw cats. We have a few cats at home but I've been in love with tigers since I was a very small boy and im now 40. So, I'd really love to see some techniques for different expressions and how to draw longer hair nicely
@@bobbyrebholz2183 I thought, close up hair would need to be a different technique to hair that's more distant or in the background. Like, drawing hair in clumps to cover an area would be a different technique than close up fine looking hair. If you know a good way to do that id like to see a vid on it :)
Hi, I don't comment much, but you reminded me how to draw, I used to decide on every procedure, and I was looking for an intention, I don't know why, but I often rush the drawing and as I don't see that it's not plastic, I'm disappointed, I'm more interested in Line art, because I used to do quite a lot of shadowing, but now that I'm learning line art I can't shade again, I'd like to combine it, Thank you for your videos, I discovered you yesterday and you're great! Would you tell us/me how to keep calm and not to judge the result, but just to create and not suppress creativity? thanks for video, very inspiring!
I've started taking my art more seriously and the "don't draw with your eraser" thing has been a great reminder
I'm happy to hear you're taking it seriously but just remember to have fun. Don't overdo it and draw what you enjoy.
You can draw with an eraser though, just dont erase things that are errors and do it for effect.
Aww congrats ❤❤
I never comment, but I really appreciate this.

I agree with what you said about using erasers! I use erasers a lot less than i did as a beginner and it forced me to slow my process down and think more, rather than make a mistake, erase it, and repeat. 😁👍
It also let me be more relaxed with drawing and not strive for absolute perfection.

Subbed yesterday hoping for this lesson - keep it up! I’m just starting and your work is the direction where I want to get my art!
Rock on!
you're really one of the best drawing teachers of UA-cam!

You should do some paleoart and use these techniques on some dinosaurs, maybe you could draw a velociraptor or another dromaeosaur (Raptor)

OH MY GOODNESS THE AMOUNT OF DETAIL THAT APPEARED. I was so sure zooming in would still be blurry but damn that detail was sharp even on a 1080p video.

Would love to see some techniques for longer hair so I can draw cats. We have a few cats at home but I've been in love with tigers since I was a very small boy and im now 40. So, I'd really love to see some techniques for different expressions and how to draw longer hair nicely
Great suggestion!
@@bobbyrebholz2183 I thought, close up hair would need to be a different technique to hair that's more distant or in the background. Like, drawing hair in clumps to cover an area would be a different technique than close up fine looking hair.
If you know a good way to do that id like to see a vid on it :)
Hi, I don't comment much, but you reminded me how to draw, I used to decide on every procedure, and I was looking for an intention, I don't know why, but I often rush the drawing and as I don't see that it's not plastic, I'm disappointed, I'm more interested in Line art, because I used to do quite a lot of shadowing, but now that I'm learning line art I can't shade again, I'd like to combine it, Thank you for your videos, I discovered you yesterday and you're great! Would you tell us/me how to keep calm and not to judge the result, but just to create and not suppress creativity? thanks for video, very inspiring!
I think the best thing to do is trust the process. Also, allow yourself to scribble.
Please consider a tutorial on drawing crustaceans
I've had multiple requests for that. Noted!
