Obsessed with inky lineart and those thick strokes that not just determine the distance of the object, but also the feel and motion of the artwork. *_I set my Ink Brush up to 25 pixels and then erase them to give that dynamic lining._*
Ouu i know what you mean kinda like a manga esk style? I tried to do that for my first vid haha, I made messy lines so you can better feel the movement of the piece!
@@wimosuka I was also aiming to study the art of digital Ink Wash (Sumi-e) Painting, but I ended up utilizing the Ink Pen and going deep into the art of cel shading.
I have to agree that brushes play a huge role in development of a personal art style especially as you mentioned about feeling. Experimenting is good and helps a lot to develop confidence especially in sketching and getting rid of the “chicken scratches” ( that could also be a style choose more than the insecurity itself ). But good video! It definitely is going to help a lot those in need :D
Thank you so much! And you’re totally right! I forgot that you could even lean into the chicken scratches and make a whole new artwork/ develop a new style!
I was surprised by what the bonus tip was 🥲 I recently changed my brush to be more similar to a pencil in the WAY it draws, not how it looks. (I do my sketches on paper then send it to my tablet) It’s much more fun, takes less time, and looks better. I used to hate lineart as well until I changed that.
Yeah did the same Robert Marzullo Comic Inking Brush pretty much cemented how I should approach making brushes. It did not take long to have a brush that does a slight dithering when shading. That way less time on choosing a custom brush for 5% of the time and more use that brush 80% of the time.
there is one artist that despite being able to use clean lines, uses chicken scratch on places where they will place the movement lines, like shiver, tail wiggle and so on and it gives nice movement feeling despite, you know, art not moving. I reccomend everyone to have fun with it!
instant subscribe you’re funny asf and your videos are entertaining. straight to the point n great advice!! the bonus tip was literally crazy to me bruh😭
Thank you for this informative video on skipping line art and emphasizing the benefits of sketching. Your insights offer a fresh perspective on the artistic process, and I appreciate the bonus tip shared at the end.
As an artist that lives on line art, I can 100% confirm the tips are true! I “skip” the line art by committing to this rule: the sketch art is my line art. Only secret here… I sketch it twice-ish (hear me out…) the initial sketch is really rough, not too many details because that one is just a guideline, but important landmarks, flow, composition and things I don’t want to forget go here. Then I lower the opacity and sketch it again on a new layer, this time the aim is to sketch it - but more deliberately with all the bells and whistles - and anything can change here, even the landmarks I decided on earlier will probably get changed in the final sketch. This is why making the lineart with the same brush you sketch with is vital. I was slow clapping listening to this video because it is true. Yesssss the type of brush really makes or breaks the line art. Sometimes, I just draw it on paper and scan it - its so much faster haha. But digital is convenient too so I gradually got to this point after bleeding sleepless nights worth of blood, sweat and tears over this elusive line art situation. It’s freeing to see another person express similar thoughts and techniques I use. I feel seen. 👏💛 Liked and subbed!
LMAOOO “slow clapping” that killed me 🤣🤣 But that’s amazing! I’m glad you were able to relate to the vid! 😄 thank you for subscribing! Feel free to join my discord too if you’d like, it’s in the bio!
It’s nice to know other people share the opinion that line work is superfluous. For me personally, it brings every project to a desktop because I just don’t wanna f😮king draw the same lines over again, only to end up with a lifeless simulacra of the original.
You’re right! I didn’t know so many people shared the same thoughts! Since line art takes time and it’s a hit or miss for most people including myself, I guess it kinda makes sense 😅
this!!! I've been one of those people who do the original sketch/concept art?) and when i move onto the line art its just so much worse T0T and so whenever i draw my first layer with the defining lines, I try to not chicken scratch as much as I can, and clean up a few parts, and theres my art. (I think the problem with sketching and putting lineart above it is that.. it looks so forced? i also agree on the fact that people think line art needs to be perfect, and then it looks so stiff, unmoving and unnatural, although you could say my ''sketch'' IS the lineart, I know, weird but I've met a few friends who do the same. ''my sketch IS the lineart'' is the thing i constantly repeat to people now lol. Also yes, when I just used the same brush that I used for my sketch, for the time I did lineart after I skipped it for like months, it flowed so nicely? I felt all the lies flash before my eyes at that moment about art haha
I also don't like doing line art, I'm a visual learner, when I see something or someone I observe them and slowly start sketching. I also then realized why I don't always want to draw is because, I didn't like the process of doing line art, thinking about it makes me not wanna draw and it also stresses me out. So I thought, just draw from imagination after you got your materials for inspirations. And I gotta say, this video best describes my situation as a beginner newbie baby artist. All the other online drawing tutorials are good, but the line art wasn't it for me, I want to kind of just start drawing, the inspiration as my guide and all. Plus I can get myself familiar with anatomy and all those stuff just by observing the model and carefully drawing them by visual. Plus, not every artist tip is going to work on everyone.>
Yeah you’re totally right! I find that sometimes doing line art kinda makes my art look dead whereas when it’s all sketchy I can see more “life” in it. The best way I practiced was to pick something I wanted to learn specifically and make it into an art piece. For me personally I felt like practicing on my own was just wasting time and I never remembered what I practiced, but when I focused on what I wanted to learn and then rendered it I found myself to be learning, having fun, and having an artwork to show at the end!
@wimosuka I've seen great comics with great line art, but there's always something about sketching even maybe a touch of line art in some places for stand out pieces but there's just something that feels better seeing real drawings that look like it's been worked on with great effort, I think lineart takes away from that a little bit, makes it look produced, not drawn, despite how long lineart takes, it just seems effortless sometimes
My brain: Skip lineart, go full sketch for your true artstyle. Also my brain: Skill issue. Again my brain: Sure, but sketch art is underrated. Lineart is overrated. And my brain, again: True... skill issue anyways.
Im the same..i hate lineart!!...all i do is my silly messy af sketches and start painting on top of them without even finishing the sketch AAHH I feel like lineart sometimes makes my art look weirdly flat, and it's kinda limiting...so I like to paint on top of my lines hehe
I totally know what you mean by the lineart making the art look flat 😩 I feel like it’s 50/50 for me, sometimes it turns out great and sometimes I can’t salvage it 😭
@@wimosuka soo truueee aahhh it's so hit or miss for me that I barely bother with it anymore ;; I had a manga style phase recently and the clean lineart worked out fine but it's honestly so hard and BORING...I get impatient and wanna go for the rendering and colors aahhh but i enjoy it way more than lineart
Dude for realllll, line art is so time consuming, hard, and BORING for me, all that work for me to even go back to the sketch cuz the line art looks dead sometimes 😫 I also get impatient and just start throwing colours 😂
Kind of sad that it has to be said that learning on paper should be first 😢 The three most important things to drawing and painting are line quality, shape design and edge control. You can “skip” learning one of them but it will always show in your final product
Learning on paper first just helped me out! I’m sure there are others who can do the same digitally but I just wanted to let people know the tips and tricks that helped me get to where I am! But yeah I agree it kinda sucks that I had to go back to paper, but then again… I prob wouldn’t have done it if I didn’t have so much free time at some of my jobs lmao 😂😂😂
I watch this vid in public and i can say that i regret it so much.... That scream in the early video made people looking at me like im sort of weirdo watching h*ntai
@@wimosuka that will be wonderful and helpfull cz I saw the pack previews they were nice but I was able to put those in photoshop... BTW thankyou if you do so
Idk where you saw AI lol I didn’t use any for this vid, if you’re referring to the images on the pop quiz, I added all the artists usernames below their piece. Hope this helped with the confusion 👍🏽
Jokes on you, I have to do chicken scratch while sketching with pens bc my pens are always hardly usable 💀 gotta redo every line to see it
Uhhhhh grab a sharpie then 🤣🤣🤣 lmao I’m jk ik what you mean 😂
Well my personal belief is that limitations bring forth the opportunity for experimentation
Same
Get better pens

This is a masterpiece of a video and very helpful, thank you :)
That’s so kind of you! Thank you so much I’m glad you enjoyed it!

I didn't know UA-cam could do that XD
Lmaooo did it really?? That’s so funny I didn’t know either 😂
@@wimosuka Yes, I immediately started laughing 🤣
Lineart is good for some, but sketching is where you get full character, emotion, feeling and personality, lineart is a waste of time
Some people can really make magical artworks with line art but for me personally I agree it’s kind of a waste of time 😵💫
