    I’m constantly in awe of your talents. Your tutorials are thorough and easy to understand. They give me the confidence to recreate this. But, of course, this is where talent divides us. I won’t stop watching. Please continue to share your talents (however). Thank you!

    nice squiggly lines for the top edge, and great explanation of the basic form. I'll use those principles in my ink illustrations to impress my neighbour from a minimum distance of 6 feet. Wish me luck.

    Man, he always gets into the real technical stuff they don't teach me in school. None of this "how does it make you feel BS" I wanna know technical skill, not how to feel. Damn hippie instructors.

    I’m really enjoying your videos and how you bread things down. I’m struggling a little on this one of how I turn these waves into a composition. How do they work together? I’d love to see a video like you did with your more triangular prism waves to know how to apply it in a piece.

    Subscribed and liked.... your break down is like sick... this has to be the best video ive seen on making waves.... drawing waves. Amazing and yet so simplistic to something that can look intimidating to draw. Love your videos man and thanks for the information. Some artist would have you pay for such knowledge. Its sick out there. Keep the videos coming!

    so good.Excellent explaining. I have used microns and copics , now into fountain pens (with waterproof ink cause I wash over it.) (i use one by noodlers, ) i have a good 5 dollar pen- Mengran brand-that will save a lot of landfill plastic and money, gives more character to the line than the disposables too.

    Great video bro helped a lot I created some techniques I could use to help make this process smoother , so basically for the water curves I just took a stack of construction paper and bended it and started drawing it , for the water splashes on top I just thought of the letter y and those squiggly lines you see at a birthday party . DOPE VIDEO ! Hope to see more .
