Can you use the Loomis Method to help you draw Manga? Yes...
But you need to understand what is going on. In this video I discuss how we use the Loomis method and structural drawing to help us get proportions and symmetry... but then we add features in a more iconographic way.
This is the same for most really stylised types of art. There is often a mix of structure and perspective and technical drawing.... combined with symbols and abstract features.
Once you get good at blocking in proportion with the Loomis Method you can use it to suit your own style.
It's just a tool you can use to help you draw cool stuff!
Happy Drawing!

I'm almost certain Masayuki Taguchi uses Loomis method of drawing heads in his Battle Royale manga. It's a really good manga to study for visual storytelling anyway, but the Loomis method adds a bit more of interest for me since I love this in between manga and realistic style of drawing characters.
As someone who has been studying the Loomis method and wants to draw manga, this video is a godsend. Thank you so much! 🔥🔥🔥 can you do more videos on the Loomis method? Your channel is very helpful!
Same, bro I just was about "should I switch" cuz people say its for realism not anime
@@RoronoaZoro-yp4wyyeah, you should use the loomis still
It’s also used for anime, all you gotta do is change the proportions up a bit and yeah
Love all your manga videos. Very informative explanations from a knowledgeable perspective, quite rare in regards to UA-cam manga tutorials!
Finally i have seen what I'm looking for...
Been searching for this kinda channel for like a week
Tim draws Naturo. My life is complete!
I once saw on youtube a japanese artist called Minimaru using the loomis method to draw anime heads, so yeah it definitely works
Very very informative
Tim, thanks for your work!
It will be interesting to see the same video only for Disney style.
As someone who's been almost exclusively drawing manga style, using Loomis method, I'm--wait, Loomis method isn't supposed to be for manga style?
I personally found that shifting to Loomis method actually improves my head construct. Maybe it's because Loomis method breaks down fundamental construct better than typical manga method, and it's easier to find your way to stylize once you know the fundamentals to work on and modify to be in your own style.
Thank you for confirming I'm not doing the wrong thing! Hopefully one day I can diversify my style with the help of Loomis method!
That's why art teacher and professionnel artist said that we have to start with realistic art so we can understand the construction
I saw a vid with a manga artists recommending books to learn art. A lot of them were western books like Loomis.
Hey Tim another great vid! Could you possibly in the future do a video on how to draw tech? Like te stuff we see in Tatsuyuki Tanaka pieces. He has all these intricate backgrounds and I have no idea how they approach that stuff...
I've been struggling with the loomis method for quite sometime! This has been helpful. Thank you. Do you think you can do a video on using the loomis method with the disney style drawing?
thanks for the video :D
just discovered you! I am stuned! Where have you been my entire life, sir!?
Can you do a tutorial with Loomis method geared towards today’s modern cartoon and animation on tv? It would be much appreciated
I followed the link and watched through some of the videos on your website and didn't see anything about "head construction mistakes." Do you have another link or did I just miss it somewhere?
I wonder, if you can use Loomis mannequin/skeleton for manga/anime character's poses?... Or is it a "too detailed' of method to use it?
It doesn't matter what you use as long as you understand how to use it
I don't feel like the trdaitional Loomis construction is practical for manga, at least girls in an eastern style, especially around eyes, brows and jaw. You kind of have to make a slight changes to the formula to make up for the anatomical rules that get broken. Adult male characters that are much closer to western comic on the other hand can easily be done well with Loomis I think.
So its yes or no?
Y E S :)

This chanel feels ilegal because it feels like sumthing that shoudlnt be free ...🥺
I like your channel, but this video misses the question. Someone will watch Proko’s video with 10m views and later get frustrated that very little of what they learned applies to drawing like Yoh Yoshinari. Anime and cartoons in general take MANY deviations from the base Loomis style that can’t be broken down as easily as changes in proportion. What’s needed is rules of anatomy and different approaches to drawing, which I understand goes well beyond the scope of a simple youtube video.
