Then, work up the time. Draw whenever you can, as long as you can. That's how you get better faster. Drawing with a purpose is arguably just as important but drawing more is so important. Not immediately because it's exhausting but build it up over time. I have started drawing in March 2020 and now 2 years and 3 months later I draw 3-5 pages every day, around 2+ hours. Now I want to focus more. Too often, I sit there 1 hour but only draw 20 minutes. And I got to drawing so much because I always set goals for myself to draw every day and it naturally just go more.

      Honestly I believe it truly depends on the person. Some people do really well with near constant drawing, but bottom line, you know yourself and your limits. Making art very often is great, but you don’t have to feel bad about yourself if you aren’t drawing every single day. Looking at your mistakes with intention (like how this artist said he would study where he went wrong, and correct his anatomy mistakes later) is more valuable than sheer mileage IMO. I guess my point is if you aren’t consciously thinking about how to improve, tons of drawing can only get you so far. Good luck with everything! 😊

    *Awesome sketchbook* . It's clear why the artist was hired by Riot.
    I really love the use of ballpoint pen (blue primarily with red) as well as gouache. Ballpoint pen is not only cheap, but more like a pencil. You can create soft lines as well as bold darker lines. Completely understated and it's evident the artist understood the media but mastered it!

    • @yoanmihov5143
      @yoanmihov5143 Рік тому

      the thing is ballpoint pen can basically only be used for sketches and not much else, that's its weakness, other than that it's soo good for sketching, I also think its much easier to start sketching with a ballpoint pen than with a sharpie for example.

It's also pointless and I can't imagine a bigger waste of time than just sitting there trying to be a printer, feels like something only 12 y olds are impressed by. Once you've drawn a live model hyperrealism looks amateurish af. Also what I meant is that ballpoint pen unlike ink, pencils etc does not work well with other media. Also if you consider a tracing of an Ariana grande photo to be a finished piece I think there is nothing more to say to you.

Thats just my personal process, and i cant really choose one or the other because both serve different parts of creating art.

    • @oight
      @oight Рік тому +5

      both! i'm in the industry and went to university that mostly just pumps out concept artists and 3D artists. we all had mandatory traditional drawing classes throughout most of the degree, until you do your graduation portfolio at the end. learning traditionally has a lot of value, because it forces you to learn in other ways than just purely digital. also the progression of AI art, (despite being not that good, but "good enough" for a company to cut artists' jobs for profit over good art), the need to know traditional forms that aren't as replacable is becoming more of a focus i've seen from a few of my friends/professionals on twitter.
      such a massive part of finding our styles and ways of looking and interprating the world into communicative art pieces, is through the way we learn how to draw/paint/sculpt or whatever methods you specialise in. each method has different ways you try to overcome difficulties, different constraints that make you less reliant on ways to "speed it up" and work in a more unique way.
      most professional digital artists also learned traditionally for some time too. i believe one of the most important ways to becoming a good artist and finding our own style/understanding higher forms of art, are the ways we learn. the whole process of being bad and then getting better, and the process of trying out different styles and constraints that make us have our own personal styles instead of say, the thousands of corporate concept art styles that look so similar with basically not much storytelling or personal touch. the abundance of obviously traced 3D models, anatomy that is too perfect but the line work is not as good quality - this is mostly the result of artists not having enough time to work on art because companies/people want things done quicker and cheaper, stuff that is just "good enough".
      all these things are not really the fault of the artists. i feel it's only more recently we've started to question the "this is just how it is in the industry - trace and use as much images as you can and hope that no one links it back". it clearly is impacting our sense of personal style and making it harder to survive as a skilled artist in the long run. it creates an abundance of the same corporate styles that people become bored of. us artists in the games industry have been expected to produce artwork faster and faster over the years. it is just purely to make as much profit for the company executives/shareholders as they can. concept artists are expected to create an unrealistic amouunt of artwork in a such a short time, become a pro at 3D modelling also, while sacraficing the artistic value of the art work and the artist.
      i could go really in-depth about more of artist's becoming increasingly exploited and constrained by the richer executives/shareholders drive for only profit, thus resulting in an increasing overreliance on "tools" out of a need to prioritise speed over art. this has made a lot of the artwork in games the past 5 years look very stale and similar, but i feel i've rambled too much already lol.
      went quite off-topic and rambled so much omg, but i basically mean that yes, draw both 🙂 try out as many different art medias as you can/can afford too. oils/watercolours, inks, charcoal, metal etching - all these really helped improve my quality of art. and when you've drawn anatomy for so long, the feeling of not needing so many references is great as i used to spend soooo many hours just trying to find a good reference of what i had in my head!
      last thing... my other advice is don't believe the nonsense of some toxic beliefs that you should give up all your life and time to drawing. not only will this make you burn out usually, but it won't actually make you improve more than someone who spends a good deal drawing, but also spends time going out and doing things/watching good cinema/going to galleries/travelling & going on walks with friends. all these things can be research too in making you a better artist. even seeing artwork that inspires you is studying in a way, when you break down the elements of the work in your head. obviously drawing a lot needs to be done too, but i mean also spend time living in the world too.
      i notice a lot of these guys who propagate that drivel are usually men who seem to have that same realist/kit-bashed art style that is not very communicative/artistic, because they've went along with a mindset that is nonsense and only benefits rich executives wanting artists to not get better working conditions. these guys are not exactly what art critics and curators would consider the peak of art lol, some of the best artists from the past 100 years did not produce art work nearly as fast as we're expected to in the games industry, and was/is more artistic due to more time spent on growing as an artist due to being less commodified.

    When you are a designer, illustrator or photographer. It can sometimes just be one single picture/mockup in your portfolio that seals the deal instantly. It happened to me frequently. I got 2 clients and a permanent job in my design industry just due to one experimental photograph I took that's part of my Portfolio. Im a graduate communication designer & photographer, and Obviously I met the requirements in my work, they wouldn't even go through my stuff if I didn't. But as a creative, you should have some concepts in your work that stands out -which shows you can think out of the box and actually conceptualize successfully. Because the idea/concept of your work matters more than the skill applied, it's way more valuable.
    This message goes out more to the undergrad Art/Design students. Not the hobbyists. But yeah, obviously get your technical skills ready and perfecto. It's not that hard, literally just repetition mixed with applied design/art fundamentals, will take you maybe 3-5 years to properly grasp with the guidance of a lecturer or mentor of course. But your conceptualization skill is the hardest part. Combining ideas to create new unheard of concepts. That's going to sell and be the most valuable, as no automated system can incubate ideas like us. Literally a God given gift that only we can perform.

    When you guys were talking about methods one of the best pieces of advice on drawing the face was from Ethan Becker. It was just less than a second when he talked about the face being a mask and something clicked for me. Combining that with some Bridgeman and it set me on the right path.

    I see a lot of this style of drawing, a commercial approach, and that's probably what it takes to be a successfull artist in the industry. I see this style at a lot of people, like Even Amundsen, just naming one that got into my mind. Not bad at all, actually very nice, just exactly the visuals commercial studios want.

    i always used to get so embarrassed/disappointed in myself looking back at my old sketchbooks cause i was comparing myself to other artists constantly and feeling like i’m not where i want to be, skill-wise. but this inspired me to look back with a positive mindset and acknowledge that i was growing, developing my voice and skill through every drawing as well as sparking ideas for things i want to try as i keep filling up my pages and getting new sketchbooks.

    “This is the drawing that got me hired.”
    Pretty sure it was just the last drawing he talked about before offering him a job. It was the paintings and everything else that got him hired.

    • @lyingeyes5579
      @lyingeyes5579 2 роки тому +6

      When you are a designer, illustrator or photographer. It can sometimes just be one single picture/mockup in your portfolio that seals the deal instantly. It happened to me frequently. I got 2 clients and a permanent job in my design industry just due to one experimental photograph I took that's part of my Portfolio. Im a graduate communication designer & photographer, and Obviously I met the requirements in my work, they wouldn't even go through my stuff if I didn't. But as a creative, you should have some concepts in your work that stands out -which shows you can think out of the box and actually conceptualize successfully. Because the idea/concept of your work matters more than the skill applied, it's way more valuable.

    • @Garl_Vinland
      @Garl_Vinland 2 роки тому +4

      @@lyingeyes5579 Sure, but they also want to see a consistent quality bar for your work. If he flipped through his sketchbook and that image was his best sketch with everything else being doodles, he would not be hired.

  • @yul1032
    @yul1032 Рік тому +2

    I see how that sketch got him to be hired by Riot Games. I think its not only how grand everything you paint is, or how awesome and epic the canvas will be after hundreds of hours poured into it. The importance of the smaller things should have not been overlooked in the grand scheme of things. Showing a motherly love with the kid hugging her mom is a very strong message to know that the artist spends time on very simple, but affectionate moments.
    The show like Arcane has very good visuals and epic scales in art, but it also gave moments like Powder and Vi being scared and hugging each other as a way to cope with the situation. Riot hired artists like him that not only shows skills, but also messages and themes. Arcane wouldnt have that good dynamic in characters if you didnt see artists animate them being close with like comforting each other and they just do flashy moves. Never forget what made them human.

    He said be good at it before you get a job ! I agree with that too but a lot of people tell me that no get in the field and learn with the flow so then I feel like that make sense too but I totally comprehend the idea that if am good at something before I get a job in that , I will be much more confident and less stressed and open to new ideas and won't be scared to try other ways rather than just finishing the deadline cause it's so hard and I don't know if it's good enough!
    A person I worked with would just watch a tutorial and start a new tool just to get that job done ,he would get the job done by this approach but he would then leave that thing there, like this you are just getting done with things . However I on the other hand want to get to the fundamentals cause I don't wanna revert back and learn fundamentals while in between a hanging job. Most people ask me how do you know this much stuff (I am not a pro yet but dream to be ) and I tell them cause I tend to educate myself in better way , don't you?

Your work is absolutely beautiful, but there is so much more value under the surface in the fact that it is so incredibly inspirational!
