This is a great video and reminder. Often in my studies i was more concerned with the placement of the line regarding form, but not considering the lighting, texture and depth. I *know* these things but i still find myself only applying this stuff in limited fashion aside from the very obvious moments. Again, thanks!
Glad it was helpful. I expanded this approach to more and more ‘lines’ as I could see it working. Doesn’t happen overnight, but once our mind is in the right place, we start to see its uses more. 😀
One of your most useful videos (at least for me) . I think my next step is to do the sketch with a pencil and think about what lines need to really be there. Looks easy when you do it 😂, but I know I have to break some barriers in my brain to be able to do it
Even if I already do this with pencils/painting, it somehow didn't hit me that I can use this same strategy for ink drawing, so thank you for the reminder! Also, have you ever tried printmaking? Because I can't imagine just how marvelous your art would look in the media of dry point and/or etching - that last drawing especially (the two figures walking among the trees) gives me heavy dry point vibes, cheers!
It really depends on the person drawing, if they want it cartoon like or realistic, but if they are watching this channel, one should learn to do it realistic based on your tips. Lived the references shown in this video, your technique really evolve with each new video.
Yes, I do make assumptions about the broad drawing aims of the viewer, or else I'd never be able to say anything without making a thousand qualifications first. I'm glad you can see my drawing development as well. I'm not just imagining it.
im 14 and i just discovered ur channel ur so awesome and u explain things so well im learning so much :3
So good to hear. Welcome aboard and all the best with it. 😀

Thanks for this very important insight-- will indeed be good food for thought before attempting anything.
Time to start Aditya😀
Thank you foe that.. I did not realise that edges made so much difference 😮
Yes they do. Have fun exploring this. 😀
In my brain, "edge" has always equaled "line." Thanks for pointing out that this is not always (and rarely should be) the case!
Exactly my point. Hope it’s helps for your drawings😀

If we are consistent with change, it happens more easily😀
Thanks
Very kind of you. Much appreciated 😀

Thanks Michelle. I haven’t done printing, but I’ve also noticed the similarities and am thinking about it. 😀
Copic multiliners, pens and markers. I got mine from US Amazon.

Stephen, what kind of pen(s) do you use? Can I find them in the US?
I use COPIC Multiliners and Sketchmarkers. I’m sure they’re available in the US. 😀
