- There are many things we drew wrong as a child, like the lower lip brighter than the upper lip, a star without guidelines, and fire. But let's change that. Here are three ways of drawing fire (or a fireplace) as a pro artist.

I actually LOVE when people draw stars without guidelines if it matches the vibe. If you want something to look funky, sloppy mismatched stars are your hero
It depends on what you’re drawing
@@_Kasa_Kun_ they stated that
@AEuropeancommenter okay
@@_Kasa_Kun_ 🙂👍
@@Bubblywatertastesliketvstatic I love drawing silly sloppy stars!
*cries in traditional artist*
@JETER-c7k FR 😭
*joins you but also happy about being both*

@JETER-c7k just draw?
you can do the fire smudge thing with oil paints and a dry blending brush too
If you want it to be hotter, you can add transparent blue and purple UNDER the yellow and have a layer where theres "no" fire under that, because that part is too hot to be in the visible light spectrum.

@@CheekieCharlie i thought you said "if you want to look hotter" 😭
@Yumi-Art I mean🥵🥵
@Yumi-Art me too 😅
for the lip one i always put the top lip darker cuz that's how mine looked 😭
@real-lz1sn
That is the right way to
@@lilcommentno siempre
@@lilcomment it isn't the right way, people have the same color lips, darker upper lip and lighter upper lip
@@seoasahiSome people have naturally two-toned lips. Google "natural two toned lips" and scroll down until you see a picture of someone without makeup on
@real-lz1sn same here!!! Only v slightly
I love making the upper lip lighter then the bottom 😭
It's your artstyle so it's ok! But it is better to make the top darker because have you seen anyone with a lighter top lip?
@ToastyCheeseBread sometimes I make the top lip dark and the bottom light, sometimes I make both lips dark and sometimes I make both lips light, which doesn't at all have anything to do with me changing my artstyle every year I just like, playing around
I do- my top lip is more light and desaturated 😭🙏
@ToastyCheeseBread My top lip is lighter too 😭
@ToastyCheeseBread I have a lighter top lip...
Just a reminder, art never goes wrong😌
AGREED
@@aliakarim1935 unless it’s the rule 34
Unless I do it because I checked my stats and I have ZERO art 🙏🏻

@@MadzMi absolutely
Bros art is FIRE🔥🔥🔥
LITERALLY 🤣
I’m sorry this is so funny- ima steal this but give u credit
Thanks dude
Cooler...
I mean hotter 👍
@@mchb84 LOL
I was looking in the comments for someone to say that
Earther
Op I mean airer
Bro went from a comedy skit to a tutorial in less than 15 seconds😭🙏
Hearing navi's voice made the already great tutorial greater for me
I’m confused by the comments saying this can’t be done in traditional when i feel it totally can. The airbrush and blending brush aren’t special tools giving and unfair advantage, they are literally needed because you can,t have precise texture and pressure control on digital like you can on traditional. “Airbrush” and “blending” just means shade lightly first and then blend. This can be done with a singular pencil. I really don’t understand why people often say traditional is harder. I do both and i find traditional mediums A LOT easier than digital. I feel like both are too different to compare, its like arguing if using oil paints is harder than using graphite.
i think a big part of it for me is the undo button and layering features, as someone who does digital art and finds traditional art harder. erasers work but they smudge and stuff, and it feels like you have a finite amount of times you can erase the same spot or how much can be erased at once, while with digital you can just redo the same line as many times as necessary. obviously im biased because im used to using digital tho
@ the undo thing is definitively huge but i have to disagree with layering cuz whenever i do digital i want my pens to blend together i hate that everything is on top of each other😭 layering feels necessary to make that blended effect happen tbh. But yeah i prefer traditional because it comes so much more intuitivly to me when i can actually feel what im making yk? The main reason I find y’all’s work harder is cause digital feels like litrally drawing in air. My proportions always end up off and i can NEVER make colors look good. Its so much easier with real paint where even one dollop looks asthetic. Its so funny we are arguing for each other’s mediums being harder tho😭
@@niharika3280 i kinda get what you mean on the layering but even with regular blending being more convenient i just find it super helpful to do stuff like colouring and outlines on different layers so i can erase one at a time, especially if i need to draw multiple objects touching or close to each other. i totally get how traditional art feels more intuitive tho, especially if ur used to it
traditional artist here! it’s not the same. i do digital art, and it’s way easier. i don’t have to spend extreme amounts of money over and over on supplies (1 paid for program, some are free, and one tablet), there’s layers, unique/texture/making your own brushes, overlays, brushes as large as the page, do i need to go on? it’s simply unfair to compare the two when digital art has so many extreme advantages
also whichever you’re better/comfier with often depends on what you practice more and what you started with
Plenty of people have lighter top lips, so it’s not really a mistake
@@pumpkincat4594 *all
it's more about the shading, not the actual color of the skin
@ yeah but the upper lip isn’t ALWAYS in enough shadow to make it darker, its odd to have that as a general rule
@@pumpkincat4594 the top lip looks darker 90% of the time because of shading, unless the person has crazy differently coloured lips or the light comes from the bottom. So generally it's better to make the top lip darker even if the person has a lighter top lip because it looks more realistic and 3 dimensional
@@nakinana_ my lip is crazy lighter than my top lip, also if you have smaller lips your top lip won’t be in much shadow much of the time , It’s not a mistake its just not as common of a trait
In childhood, people draw logically - they draw pictogrammes. Like, the sky being a blue stripe on top of the sheet because the sky is logically above, or the sun's rays (not diffraction spikes, but rays in one direction) coming down towards tbe ground. Then, they learn what stuff really looks like, and add logic and perception.
That’s a really interesting take on this, thanks for sharing! Feel like my frontal lobe just developed.
@@prototype014 oh boy I loved the time after we showed my niece what the actual sun looks up close. She drew a huge ball of flames for a couple of months on all her lovely meadowy and farm drawings 😅
@@prototype014 tell that to my childhood drawings with 7 fingers on one hand and 4 on the other :,)
@@Caanzelol that’s cute
@@prototype014 i wouldn't say they draw logically, I'm an art teacher and I would say a lot of my students basically draw icons to represent reality. I call them shortcut drawings, to convey the object they want to portray. Most havent learned to really look. To learn to look is to learn to draw, because you stop thinking in shortcuts, and you start seeing in shapes, lines, forms, light, shadow and understand the whole. Without reducing it to simple icons.
Your art style is so cozy ngl
Actually my upper lip is lighter than my down lip❤
and fires are yellow not red.
Yeah but it’s logically darker because it’s in shadow while the lower lip faces up towards the light yk ? But that’s with flat/cell shading, lips irl are in a gradient from dark to light and the darkest shadow is on the mouth line which can be drawn as a black line or something to indicate the mouth in anime or canton styles
@@Tsukiyumi3 no my upper lip is actually lighter. It as nothing to do with lightning.
@ ik ik but I was explaining why people make the upper lip darker
That's amazing!
Now how do i do it on paper?
You could just draw rlly light and use a tortillon to smudge (or a rolled up paper towel if you don't have one)
I’ll actually probably use those methods for drawing fire, I struggled with it for awhile
I love the navi thing!
The "Hey ! Listen" always makes my day ( doono if I hear it right )
Your art is so amazing 👍
Thanks for the fire tips (I do animations often with fire)
I love your humor and the second way of drawing fire.
Your mustache is awesome 👌 😊
I finally found the cute voice at the start of this guy's videos!
It is navi from legend of zelda saying "Hey,Listen!"
@@smart505 wwooooow.....now I can pass my exam.......
oh :D
I thought that was common knowledge.
i LOVE the use of Navi's voice lines here that is a fantastic idea
"Hey"," listen " is such a scary sound 💀
I actually love that every single artist draws fire differently and sometimes you can even tell what they're better at drawing in general by how their fire looks. Mine tends to have a lot of shape and curves as if they're roots bc i'm pretty good at drawing curves
your tutorial are always entertaining yet useful haha
Congrats on 298k subs!!
Personally i think drawing starts without guide lines can maje them look really unique
The way you draw is really creative Love the art 🔥 🔥 🔥
"Drawing a star without guidelines"
Nah fam, those who make without and looks good are the real deal 💪
I’m the type of artist with only a pencil I found on the ground, a sharpener I won at a scavenger hunt, and a dream
Thx for tutorial
stars without guidelines is actually really easy imo, I've been doing it almost perfectly since I was a child. It's like a flower shape, just pointy.
This tuto is a fire 🔥🔥🔥
Things i drew wrong as a child
1: everything
This really helped me
That fire is absolutely FIREE🔥🔥
And that mustasch was CLEEEAN.
The Fire nation supports this short 200%
To be honest I usually use the 3rd way to make fire🔥
As a 14yo, I still make the star mistake 🌟✨️
The fire tip sounds really useful. I'm gonna try it out.
Ty!!
My way of drawing fire is just do some kinda orange leaf but more fire-shaped and crop the spikes to make them sharper
Can you please do a video for traditional 😢😢
i dont know, but u can try to follow his steps! xD
@Star.Steff12347 how could for traditional art we can follow these steps?
You can actually follow these steps. Example in colored pencil, start with an orange one as an outline to the fire, then color it gradient from the core of the fire outwards yellow to orange. Then the blur is by smudging the sides with your fingers or with a cotton.
With markers just same too, just that you can't really smudge it as much and it looks more cartoonish.
Acrylics and Gouache is just the same.. as above too. You can even layer with these two mediums xD.
Watercolors on the other hand are like.. outline the fire with water, with yellow just dot it on the wet surface. Then add orange to the side. Then let it dry.
Ngl it depends on the mediums you use.
The smile in the end always gets me 😭🙏🏼
OH NO NEED TO CALL US OUT!
The second one, I want to freestyle and make it more creative, the third one, it took me several time to remember how flame color works 🔥
flames have but one colour, the artist is d u m b.
Have you seen a real fire? They're mono coloured, they are yellow-orange in colour, that's a colour, not 2. And they're brighter in the hotter regions of the fire, and colder the further away from the source of heat they get.
HELP I HAVE NEVER SEEN FIRE BEFORE😭😭😭
I actually use a bit of blue in the downer part of the inside part because it's more realistic
but there is no red in a fire.
THE CAMERA MOVEMENTS FOR THE AD HELP-
And Minori and Saito's silly noises + reactions were absolutely hilarious xD (honestly it's very cute how Saito gets to be a part of the friend group and just be excited with them, good for her💚)
Can't wait to read more 👀
Ty for translating!
Edit1: Did... Did I just end up landing on the last episode by accident 😭
If the fire should be really hot/glow, make a small portion of the inside white
white and yellow are the only colors a fire should have.
Calcium makes a bright orange flame.
Copper makes a very cool teal/cyan flame.
Lithium makes a very pale red flame.
Sodium makes a very Orangey flame, I mean it's literally Orange the fruit colored flames.
Potassium makes a very pink/magenta flame.
Strontium makes a very Strong Red flame.
Iron makes a Orange Yellow Flame with sparks.
Barium makes the most Warm Yellow Orange Flame.
Fires are monocolored. That's the problem people don't get that there's no yellow and red fires. A fire is single colored, and the outside is just less bright.
Simple technique and great results
my upper lip is darker than my under lip cuz my WHOLE upper lip is a scar bc i ite it when i was a kid and now its a scar, not a lip anymore
You ate it? How and why?
@Hansuki1 i was 3 or 4 when i bite my upper lip, it was all full of blood and no lip anymore, thats how i got the scar, but nowdays..i laugh about it😂(im 12 now)
@@SophiaCampagna-zo9ch OHHH! I was so confused and concerned, I thought you ate it as a snack or something 😭☠️
@Hansuki1 i was wrong, my mother explained the story to me😂😂
I fell down on a table and accidentaly ate my lip while falling on the edge of the table🤷
Still funny towards me tho😂😂
I’ve been struggling with fire for ages, thank you so much!!
Thats actually kinda...LIT
Did u get it 🙈
❤
I needed this before I made my animation 😭
Wich app do you use to draw? :0
Nice mustache !!
Your art is lit! 🔥 Thanks for the tutorial, I'm going to put it to practice 💜
What do u use to draw? I’m trying to get into digital art 😅
The app? Its Clip studio paint
@@mementahan2808 ty so much 😃
"Upper lip brighter than lower lip"
Proceeds to smile at the camera with a lighter upper lip and darker lower lip
I'm just wondering what app do you use for your art and maybe if you could tell me❤ please
He uses Clip studio paint.
hope that helped!
@@Kerry-c6k He uses Clip Studio Paint :)
@javery0125 fantastic 😍
I personally take after the 3rd method, as I feel it really matches my more "simplistic" style.
Also, I really like your mustache. It's gotta be the coolest mustache in town. 😎
What app did you use?
omg this actually helped me sm thank you
How u do it on paper? 😮
I love a normal top lip with a darker bottom lip; with lipstick too it's so pretty
Hey random question what app u using to draw
The loop with navi was perfect
Can you pls tell us what the best drawing apps are plsss
honestly i've found my biggest success when drawing fire comes from just sort of letting the flames build themselves if that makes sense. no real guidelines. the pen knows where it should go on its own
Whats the app your using for your art?
Procreate
I don't know the first thing about art, but this video makes me feel confident about drawing fire even though I have no clue what I'm doing. Thank you.
Hey man, what program do you use to draw? I want start to I draw digitally and I don't know which program to use
Im so glad i found this channel. im getting a laptop for Christmas that i wanna use to learn digital art, and this is the perfect channel for me to watch to help me learn. Thank you for your wisdom, lplucasarts
What the name of the app you use, I want to try it
It's probably Procreate since thats what most artists use.
a very easy and effective way i use to draw fire is to draw the shape with the lasso tool, going really wild with it doing lots of curves and leaving empty spaces + adding some smaller shapes around, then use the air brush to paint the shapes going around the edges and leaving the middle more transparent. to finish up I just use smudge in a few places and airbrush in an overlay layer for a better effect and lighting (using the lasso tool to map out the brighter parts of the flame/highlights, then painting them in the overlay layer and smudging the edges). this works especially well when drawing characters with fire powers
What about traditional artist's 😢😢
@@bhartiadhikari3472 fr they is forget about it
Thank you for tricks😊
Bro became Austrian artist in end
Fun fact: there is no “wrong” way to draw. It is simply a drawing style and choice wether you make it look one way or the other. I personally love making the lips different shades to make them look not the same. I love wobbly drawings. I love when the environment isn’t perfectly angular, it makes it feel surreal, and I do art to escape reality. :)
This is great thank you!!
immediate sub as as painter learming digital drawing rn!
This feels like two separate videos: things you drew wrong as a child, and how to draw fire. I want to know how to draw lips better, and I want to know how it makes sense that yellow goes on the inside of a fire
Cool, so I've been doing the 3rd way :D
I mean, it's not exactly, but it is close
i think the ``hey, listen!´´ in your video sound music is just ur mark haha
I still did the yellow on the outside… putting it on the inside looks amazing!
Thank you so much
that loop was clean af
The yellow part always gets me
This was very helpful!
I like the third way most
Thank you so much! Eu tinha dificuldade em desenhar fogo mesmo!
Idk what a "star guideline" is meant to be, I just kept practicing till I got good at free handing them
Art has no wrong ways.
Instant sub thanks for the hand!!!!!
candles are a good real life reference in my opinion
I feel insulted because my upper lip is actually slightly lighter than my lower lip
When I was little I did red on the inside because it’s a warmer color and a fire is warmer closer to the center, so it made perfect logical sense
I love the art style and I really want to learn more about art cuz I'm not that good
alright man I love your work I can't keep resisting to subscribe 😅😅
