Holy crap this is my life, but I have my best friend constantly bragging and showing his art/animations (it's not intentional bragging, and I still love him to death, but it's just like c'mon dude can I please just have this one drawing without being reminded that everything I create is crap compared to yours). Edit 1: spelling/wording Edit 2: changing pronouns regarding my best friend as he recently came out as transgender
I’m currently in the “I have been drawing more cats than humanoid characters for the past month and I now know how Erin Hunter felt when creating the Warriors books” phase
Nago Ibu I’m in the “only using pencil” phase out of pure fear of fucking up nice drawings by trying to add anything else lol. Like I will only add colour to photocopies of my drawings haha
Nago Ibu I’ve never been in that phase honestly, but many of my friends are and it just baffles me since experimenting with how I can use colored pencils is the funnest part for me
I’m definitely a self taught artist, I pretty much entirely skipped the “draw from books” phase. I am FIRMLY in the “oc phase.” I LOVE lore, so I make an insane background for my characters.
im the opposite of you all i don't think that i have ever invented an oc i can't come up with poses, clothes,nor expressions. almost all of my drawings are from reference, i don't have much creativity but i make up for by understanding concepts like shading, proportions, and anatomy. but my worst trait is unless my art is the best i can do, i realy hate myself but if other people see it they are realy impressed by it
i can draw femnine bodies really well but not eyes im 17 my friends think my drawings are nice Including eyes that i draw but this one time I drew somthing and showed it to someone else and they just thought i liked drawing "Boobs" just letting you know its un aboidable to draw the "Boods" of a figure also im a boy so that makes it even more akward.
Speaking of phases, I feel like most artists have gone through the phase of being stressy and depressy while their art is really messy and they need to work lessy ‘Cause like yeah
The phase I’m in is called “Constantly switching my Artstyle because everything everyone else makes looks so good and I wanna be like them” Edit: Sorry for like never saying this, but I see y’all in the comments sayin same Artstyles are not required to be consistent, hell you could have 3 going on at the same time and choose which one to do at a spur of the moment. That way you won’t really feel like it’s too inconsistent!
Oh god same i used to be in that phase, i remember looking through my old sketchbooks and i kid you not every three pages there would be a diferent artstyle
"A lot of artists get really into making their own original characters. They love them, they talk about them all the time, they know their favorite food..." Meanwhile, I can't even come up with names for mine.
i’m in the “i cannot draw realistic human faces or body proportions so i’m resorting to creepy art that don’t need those things” phase. update: after 7 months, i’ve gotten better at human anatomy, and am now drawing in more cartoony/webtoon style. i hope you all reach your goals in art! i believe in you! :D
You forgot one The “Surprising Yourself” Phase. Example: in only 4 months my art started improving at an alarming rate! In April I was still somewhat stuck in my old way of drawing until I started working for streamers. Now August and I’ve improved so much it’s scary, and it never stops surprising me…
Im in the phase " help i drew girls all my life but now im trying to draw boys and they all look feminine,, and some are supposed to be masculine and im sOBBING- "
Some other phases: 1) Anime/Manga Phase (don’t necessarily have to watch/read them, just draw in the style) 2) Constant art style change phase 3) Only busts/portraits phase 4) Fashion phase (this might just be me but this was my first phase and the reason I even got into art) 5) Draw this in your style challenge phase (fairly new) 6) Only drawing one gender phase 7) Sketch phase (when you have a million sketches but no finished drawings/illustrations)
I've been through that SO BAD and even stopped drawing for 2 years which I hate myself for because that's wasted time I could've used for practicing. But I'm finally getting into drawing more, though I have alot to catch up on.. =.=
But I mean, technically you don’t ever *have* to draw more realistic as you get older (but knowing how things look in real life can help when you do draw something cartoony)
I have a lot of different phases Im going through "why are hands so hard to draw" "Im just gonna draw eyes everywhere" "I only draw in pencil" "Im to scared to add colour or outline" "I want to draw but I dont know what to draw" "Im only going to draw from the head to shoulders"
I'm in the "learning/baby artist" phase of things, just got a tablet that I like so far and I have started learning a bit about drawing hands as well as eyes. I still have a lot to learn but I am intent on learning it :)
The fact that you can recognize flaws in your drawings just the next day sounds like a sign of rapid improvement. I got the opposite problem right now, I am content with my art and as a result I don’t see flaws and don’t feel the need to improve at all.
omg i HAD this phase. the way i got over it was to use a big (9 by 12)sketchbook, and always start out by doing a little sketch and the top of the page or smth so it doesnt look so intimidating anymore. I also sometimes used pencils with hard graphite(H6 or H4 or smth) because they dont make super dark, intimidating lines
I'm in the "Im jealouse of every artists on the internet. They make better art then I do. I must improve to their level faster even though it probably took them years to improve" pharse
When I'm really stuck and can't draw anything I just fill an entire page with shapes or lines. Or both. Free-form, sometimes butt-ugly but absolutely COMPLETE pages of doodles. Seeing a completed spread in my sketch book just makes the whole book feel better, you know. And then I can feel a little better because at least I made a complete page.
Giulia D try to draw the same character it may be the fact that you might be drawing different characters idk I’m not in that phase anymore I’m in the oc machine phase
Omg, I feel you so bad! Like it's the same for me! I drew something with a simple pencil and then I'm afraid to outline it in fineliner and add colors!!
Kittystar 707 eventually, saving up for a tablet will be amazing for you . (If you are actually interested in digital art) mind you tablets are still very expensive, but not as unattainable as you might think. I grew up thinking digital art was just for rich people, but I most likely could have afforded a lot sooner than I thought . Then again, if you have to choose between being able to feed yourself or a tablet, pick the tablet 😅
I’m the kind that wants to draw and has a perfect image in their head but as soon as you get ready to start drawing you lose motivation and walks back to the couch again.
i’m a senior in high school as of watching this, and can say i’ve been in every phase! i’m sure you won’t see this, but i just wanted to say that you’ve been an inspiration to me throughout my art journey. i remember 6 years ago, in 6th grade, when i put you as my favorite artist/inspiration for an assignment. it’s crazy to think how far both of us have progressed, and i’m so proud of myself. i’m currently working on a short comic while taking portfolio classes, since i’ve exhausted my school’s digital art and drawing/painting programs. i had a critique today where my teacher and classmate gave some great feedback, and i’m gearing up to apply to art school for next year. in short, thank you. you’ve been an inspiration to me for my entire art journey, and i’ll always look up to you.
anyone else watching this video and reading this comment, i believe in you! keep at it no matter how old you are, what you want to draw, or how good you think you are. whatever spot you’re at, i’ve been there! just keep at your passions and you’ll get to where you want to be, and beyond. i love you all!
I’m at the “only to the shoulders” and “the bodies I draw don’t match the faces” phases Edit: thanks so much (first and only top comment) and is it weird that I actually love drawing hands?
if yuore having trouble with anatomy, what helped me was drawing realistically But *completely* out of proportion. Playing with different proportions can help you see your error and eventually get the proportions correct.
I was in the "Everything I make sucks" phase, but now i'm out of it and currently in the "I AM AN UNSTOPPABLE ART GODDESS AND YOU MUST BOW BEFORE ME, MORTAL" phase.
I didn’t start out with books. I started drawing when I was three because in my nursery I went to there was dinosaur templates and I used to spend hours using the templates and then basically colouring them (it looked more like scribbling on top of the outlines though). I only got art books on my 12th Birthday.
Im going through the "Drawing stresses me out" phase And the "stops drawing for a month" phase, and finally... "Messes up one thing on their art and cries" phase.
Jojokes 'n' Stuff omg this is SO relateable lol like I haven’t drawed for months and if I draw I make like only one drawing per month and then I hate it and threw it out
Im between “sometimes learning animation but then I get sad that it doesn’t look natural and then I switch to drawing and same,only few results are cool”
Stupid bts Fan same.. i have no motivation to even start bc i know i suck at drawing plusninthink depression has a partnin this. Altho i wanna become a character designer.
Carolina Furtado omg same depression and my eating disorders and anxiety play such a big part I bet you are a better drawer than me anyway Would you like to be UA-cam friends, and do you have like Tik Tok or some’in 😊maybe we could help each other get motivated with comics and stuff
Stupid bts Fan mood. I suffer from anxiety too but for now it hasnt shown to be troublesome for my drawings. Trust me im not even with references i just suck big time, plus its been a while since ive drawn cause like i said cant make myself pick up the pen. sure! I dont have tik tok tho but i do have my insta? (I dont have any drawings there, its my personal acc)
I’m not allowed to but my brother previously made an account so I could dm a singer, so I could use his😊 let me know what your account is and I’ll say hi, btw I feel you, and I’m still in the everything sucks stage as well but looking back at where I started and to where I am now I got so much better I don’t think positive, but you can ❤️ just look back at old drawings and say “wow I got way better”
Kam w the original creators of Batman are most likely gone but the legacy lives on with others’ original interpretations and stories. But it’s very true what you are saying, being in that “phase” myself. It really isn’t a phase if you take cartooning seriously.
I am kind of in that phase but I am also in the ‘everything I make sucks’ phase. About half of the oc’s I make will have those bangs covering the eye but I make more now with both eyes than I did before so I think I am slowly moving out of that phase.
you forgot the *THE ONLY THING I DREW WAS THIS ONE CHARACTER FOR 2 YEARS AND NOTHING ELSE* phase or *if i cant draw it, i dont draw it until i can, resulting in the phase above* phase
Mom walks into my room Mom: umm.. Me: *Has black paint under eyes* Mom: is it anot... Me: it's nOt A PhAse At ALL mOm Mom: ok *walks out of room slowly*
@@aiiiia9971 I am kinda lucky with just having a feeling about what color combination is good and which is bad. I mean, I know color wheel I use it, I love it
I saw a tumblr post once when I was like 13 that said how to draw: fill 14 sketchbook and I was like Okay this is my mission I’m 17 and I still only have like 7 hahahahah I’m 1000000x better than I was back then though!!!
If you draw every day even when you don’t feel like it, is probably the worst thing you can do. Obviously you need to give yourself a break. Often after a long break you come back way better than before. If you push yourself to draw to much you will get sick of it.
I went through a similar phase, whwrw i would just put a really long coat to not to draw legs and hands Heck, once i even made a one-armed dude because i didn't want ti draw the other arm!
Better than the "only draw elementles so i can blend the dress into the floor and make it floofy and get rid of hands, legs, and feet with one dress" phase i had last year
I’m in the “I love art, but I have no motivation so I don’t draw so often anymore.” I’m also in the “I can only draw females and want to learn to draw males, but I still feel like my female drawings are not enough.” phase.
I only draw female bodies because they're so fun to draw :) But I have to say, I'm getting better at male characters, too, even if I don't draw em that often
@@JustTurt practice ik it sounds like bad advice but practice makes perfect, as long as you don't get overly negative or gain a large inflated ego and keep a balance of knowing your pretty good/ok rn and that you could get better with the right criticism. Also be original and don't just become a copy of somebody else inspiration is ok but there's a line between straight up copying and inspired. And my second to last advice to you as an artist is to never give up you might wanna sometimes but if you keep going then when your a bigger artist who's been drawing for years and years you'll be happy that never ever stop going up that hill. ( sorry I got into the mood ) but also know it's ok if you don't think art is for you not everyone has to do it you can do it if you really think that's your passion and or hobby that's just what art is a hobby something you love doing that makes you happy. My final advice is to always remember your art is for you not other ppl. Yes there's commissions and stuff but always remember it's ok to like your own stuff as much as it is to know that you need improvement.
I'm currently in a rare phase of "OH MY GOD I ACTUALLY LIKE MY ARTWORK" which I'm savoring. I finally feel like I'm starting to develop a distinct style, and it's a blessing after seven long years of self taught scribbles dissmissed as never good enough
I remember always being interested in art but I definitely wasn't talented... however looking back on it all the generic "oh wow thats really good, your gonna be a great artist" compliments really got to my head only now have I begun to compile the basic framework of decent art skills. I can't believe 12 year old me thought he was hot shit lol
For some cursed reason, I can only draw men. Hot ass men, but still. I can't draw girls. I'm a girl, I used to do ballet (Only girls, lots of them), I went to an all-girls school, and guess what, I'm a lesbian. But I can only draw the hot dudes.
I feel like one phase that could work in tis video is "finding your style". I personally think this is one of the most important steps for improving. This phase helped me so much and I think it can relate to most artists no matter what materials they use.
Many of the people I know (myself included) did not have that phase. For me there is no such thing as finding a style, because this process never stops. I understand that it may work for some people, but, at the same time, I've seen so much beginner artists who got stuck because of this idea. When you're good enough and you have a good visual base (from the artists you like), it can fluently lead to your artworks becoming distinctive based on your preferences. So, it really depends.
I’m in the “roasting my art and everyone is like ‘oh you shouldn’t be so hard on yourself!’ But roasting myself is one of my favorite hobbies and I don’t take myself seriously enough
That phase lasted so long for me that i eventually gave up on drawing and got a degree in neuroscience instead. I guess it's fine, but i do always wonder what life would have been like if i decided to keep pursuing creative outlets instead. I still have my old drawings that i look back on now, and think they were actually kinda good, even though i never made an OC, i basically mimicked other artists styles and characters. Oh well, i can live vicariously through you guys and everyone's awesome OCs on YT lol
To learn how to draw the lower body, just use some references online and look at the way tge hips and things curve and how big they are in proportion to the torso. The thighs are a few inches shorter than you entire torso. With legs, keep them tucked together and if you have trouble with that, stick one leg in front of or behind the other in a kind of relaxed state. Also helps if youa ccidentally curved your character's standing to the left or right. Gives it a reason. Actually wait no I just made huge leaps in drawing today ignore me
@@fiona9830 I would really suggest it! I didn't make a lot of OCs at first, but now that I have, I have a really fun time drawing them and adore them 24/7 haha.... If you are a writer, you can also put your OC in a bunch of stories or use them in a roleplay! If you are interested, I would highly recommend starting an OC.
This video is literally me in a nutshell- I also have a few suggestions for videos!! 1) the DOs and DON'Ts of making videos, and 2) trees/plants as cute characters!!
Whenever I’m in the everything I make sucks phase it’s because my mind tells me it’s bad or people say it’s cringy or sucks or I reflect that n what they say🥲
I don't show my friends my drawings anymore because I didn't like how sad and critical of their own work they got-I'm terrible at drawing! But now I'm super shy about letting ANYONE see my sketchbook.
@@meowshroom3945 Look mate I'd kill to be someone whose art is liked. Nobody ever wants to see my shit and if I show them they don't even glance at it.
I’m in a few phases: •The “I only draw young girls” (about 7-13 is my age restriction) •”I’m proud of my art but too scared to show anyone” •”I can’t draw fingers” •”I draw eyes all the time” •”My art sucks” •”I’m bad at colouring” And finally, •”The everything must be perfect”.
Try looking up poses on the internet, they can be real life poses or sketched poses. When drawing poses get the simple shapes and put them into your sketch as body parts, ive been using this method and i have been getting alot better at poses, hope this helps!
i don’t think that’s a good art teacher, i’ve seen that most art teachers and the good teachers don’t grade students on the quality of their art, but they grade it on the way they draw it, the idea etc
That sounds like the teacher from hellllll, but I must say I’ve had this teacher as well, and we made her quit cause some kid put hot sauce in her tea. Frick you Miss Lennon.
Rippp this is why I don't take art classes in school for like fun, cause they aren't. My friend had a teacher who didn't let you draw with mechanical pencils, and didn't let you shade normally. You had to cross hatch shade. You aren't allowed to draw anime, or anything "cartoon". Drawing at home: 👁👅👁 Drawing in art class: 👁👄👁
I had a teacher put me down for a sketch, “that girl is NAKED“ she litterally yelled that outloud in the class. I put chili peppers mixed with hot sauce in her coffee.
I'm in the "Art style is *constantly* changing because I'm becoming bolder and trying a lot of new things with my art to find things I need to work on or that I find easier to do so I can develop an art style that the aspects of it blend better" phase, lol
i'm in the different characters looks the SAME phase. yesterday i drew Shiro from NGNL amd however she looks like Ray Gardner more than Ray Gardner...???
I have a phase where I’m like: “I need to draw but homework is taking up all of my time though…” And “HOW DO I DRAW A WOMAN’S CHEST WITHOUT PANICKING-“
Hey you can do art too. But be warned, if you’re not completely invested in learning to draw, you will lose focus. Art is achievable by everyone. BUT. Try to find the book, “Drawing on the right side of the brain” It helps you learn how to create without restricting the way you look at things. It’s really boring, but it helped me so much in my journey as an artist. Try it out!❤️
my artstyle evolved from drawing my little pony my whole childhood but then my friend who's a literal god can draw perfect hands, anatomy, character design, stories by just watching anime for 2 years
Who are you and why do we share the same fate. When I was like... 8 years old I draw My Little Pony stuff a lot and then there’s this kid who is basically can draw anything
I used to trace bases, then I tried making a SOOPER UNIQKE AWRT STYALLL,then I started using sketches underneath my art, then I got kinda better and started changing my style and adding in things that I saw famous animators do cuz' was inspired by them, then I became partly cute edgy because character development. Also hello lazii
I'm in the "everything I make sucks" phase, literally when I'm done working on a 23 hour artwork I just end up deleting it and then find a new idea to draw and then delete again.
Don't delete them, even if they look like a pile of trash wanted to look vaguely like what you want. When you've improved (and you will if you keep at it) and you feel like everything is horrible, you can look at the stuff you've made before and see that you have come farther than before.
I just end up getting frustrated with the art I make because it isn't the thing I imagined I understand I need to learn but whenever I sit down and try to pull up a youtube video or just sit down and draw random things I'd get bored that I have to just draw poses to teach myself how to draw the things in my head. I'm very afraid that I won't be able to draw again );
I'm in the phase of 'I just got a new drawing program and have so many options but I don't really know what to do so I'll just improv it and see how it goes'
I didn’t have the “how to draw phase” using books. I struggled to follow the tutorials when I was a beginner artist. I learned by using basic shapes and looking at other photos for inspiration. I still use that method now lol.
I’ve been in the “everything is bad” phase for about 14 years now.
Oof

Not David when I first drew an actually decent human I felt like god now I think everything I make sucks TwT
Look back at old art it might help u see that it’s not that bad :)
same tbh

Is it sad the only thin I care about in this comment is the “warrior cats”???
hah im in that phase rn
I’m in the “I’m never going to be good at realistic art so I’m just going to stick with cartoons” phase
Same
*Me*
But I mean, technically you don’t ever *have* to draw more realistic as you get older (but knowing how things look in real life can help when you do draw something cartoony)
Same
(yelling at myself) It's not a phase, it's an art style!
I have a lot of different phases Im going through
"why are hands so hard to draw"
"Im just gonna draw eyes everywhere"
"I only draw in pencil"
"Im to scared to add colour or outline"
"I want to draw but I dont know what to draw"
"Im only going to draw from the head to shoulders"
Lol that is me rn
Bts _extra BAHAHA MEEEE
for me, the “hands are so hard to draw” is not a phase, it’s there
PERMANENTLY.
I'm going through all of those right now. 😅
V S C O true so true
I'm in the "learning/baby artist" phase of things, just got a tablet that I like so far and I have started learning a bit about drawing hands as well as eyes. I still have a lot to learn but I am intent on learning it :)
good luck on your future ventures!
I think the draw book phase has evolved into the "trying to copy art from artists you admire and binge UA-cam tutorials" phase
SkitAWulf242 I agree.
Fucking. Me.
How dare you talk about me! My art style is too similar to my favorite UA-camr Hyanna Natsu XD
That was literally me 6 years ago
Fr!!🤣
I’m in the “I don’t know what to draw but it’s not an art block” phase. Not sure if other people have felt that before.
That's when you look to other people to give you prompts. Your prompt is winged space cow.
I just end up drawing pages full of slightly scary people with long noses. Help me.
feel ya' :(
@@ankleina Have fun :-)
Yup. I want to draw SOMETHING, but nothing seems appealing..... not prompts..., not my normal style.... not drawing random things...
I'm in the "Every time i draw something so good that I'm proud of and after tomorrow it looks weird phase"
Still stuck in that.
This is too accurate to where I am feeling now
its the one drawing you drew at 3am
The fact that you can recognize flaws in your drawings just the next day sounds like a sign of rapid improvement. I got the opposite problem right now, I am content with my art and as a result I don’t see flaws and don’t feel the need to improve at all.
That’s not a phase THAT IS PERMANENT
Im in the "draw the same two shirts for everyone" phase
Therapist: calm down
Me: BUT I WANT TO DRAW MY OC!
It does feel good to do

The phase of..
What-the-hell-am-I-supposed-to-draw-this-sheet-looks-so-crisp-and-clean
idontwannadirtyitwithsomeweirdshitart
XD
omg i HAD this phase. the way i got over it was to use a big (9 by 12)sketchbook, and always start out by doing a little sketch and the top of the page or smth so it doesnt look so intimidating anymore. I also sometimes used pencils with hard graphite(H6 or H4 or smth) because they dont make super dark, intimidating lines
Have that literally all the time
That's exactly the reason why all my school notebooks are covered in doodles and all my "sketchbooks" have lines
I'm in the "Im jealouse of every artists on the internet. They make better art then I do. I must improve to their level faster even though it probably took them years to improve" pharse
Yo saaaaaame 🙃🤣
me too. it sucks and i feel so sad everytime i look at my art cuz all i see is really horrible drawings
I'm in that phase but it's only that case with dotpict
@@elizabethe.4860 I do something similiar with references.
Same here
When I'm really stuck and can't draw anything I just fill an entire page with shapes or lines. Or both. Free-form, sometimes butt-ugly but absolutely COMPLETE pages of doodles. Seeing a completed spread in my sketch book just makes the whole book feel better, you know. And then I can feel a little better because at least I made a complete page.
I’m in the, I-literally-have-1,000-art-styles-and-every-time-I-draw-something-it-looks-completely-different-then-my-other-drawings phase.
ah yes, the ultimate phase
I've never related to something more please anyone has advice?
Lucky
Giulia D try to draw the same character it may be the fact that you might be drawing different characters idk I’m not in that phase anymore I’m in the oc machine phase
Ah yes, the phase I am very familiar with and have been in for the last few years
My phase is “i dont color because it will mess up”
Omg, I feel you so bad! Like it's the same for me! I drew something with a simple pencil and then I'm afraid to outline it in fineliner and add colors!!
Same, thats why i usually only color things in digital, because layers and undo button
@@ashefox2648 I'm too poor for that.
Kittystar 707 eventually, saving up for a tablet will be amazing for you . (If you are actually interested in digital art) mind you tablets are still very expensive, but not as unattainable as you might think. I grew up thinking digital art was just for rich people, but I most likely could have afforded a lot sooner than I thought . Then again, if you have to choose between being able to feed yourself or a tablet, pick the tablet 😅
Kittystar 707 Jesus Christ I meant pick the food , the food!! Don’t starve omg I’m sorry 😭😭😭
I’m the kind that wants to draw and has a perfect image in their head but as soon as you get ready to start drawing you lose motivation and walks back to the couch again.
Me lol

I feel the same way
Same tbh 😭😭👍

i’m a senior in high school as of watching this, and can say i’ve been in every phase!
i’m sure you won’t see this, but i just wanted to say that you’ve been an inspiration to me throughout my art journey. i remember 6 years ago, in 6th grade, when i put you as my favorite artist/inspiration for an assignment. it’s crazy to think how far both of us have progressed, and i’m so proud of myself.
i’m currently working on a short comic while taking portfolio classes, since i’ve exhausted my school’s digital art and drawing/painting programs. i had a critique today where my teacher and classmate gave some great feedback, and i’m gearing up to apply to art school for next year.
in short, thank you. you’ve been an inspiration to me for my entire art journey, and i’ll always look up to you.
anyone else watching this video and reading this comment, i believe in you! keep at it no matter how old you are, what you want to draw, or how good you think you are. whatever spot you’re at, i’ve been there! just keep at your passions and you’ll get to where you want to be, and beyond. i love you all!
As an aspiring 14 year old artist, thank you!
I’m the “Oh god I can’t think of anything to draw so I’m going to draw fan art and cute people” phase
In my mind like I can draw that so perfectly but
Expectations=awsome
reality=the drawing is ugly
honestly yeah

NCT has ruined my life. I don’t mind though.// Sammmmmmeeee

I’m at the “only to the shoulders” and “the bodies I draw don’t match the faces” phases
Edit: thanks so much (first and only top comment) and is it weird that I actually love drawing hands?
Oof that was a hard one. I still do it sometimes.
Omg same
You don’t understand how accurate that is for me. It is my drawing handicap and I have yet to get over it
Sameeeeeeeeee I like cant draw legs at all
if yuore having trouble with anatomy, what helped me was drawing realistically But *completely* out of proportion. Playing with different proportions can help you see your error and eventually get the proportions correct.
Im in the “i used to be able to only draw females but i started drawing males and now i cant draw females” phase
same but opposite 😏
Huge mood HAHA

I was in the "Everything I make sucks" phase, but now i'm out of it and currently in the "I AM AN UNSTOPPABLE ART GODDESS AND YOU MUST BOW BEFORE ME, MORTAL" phase.
Lavender: "I see a lot of artists start out with the how to draw books"
Me: "wE hAve BOokS?"
Same I started by looking up how to's on yt
i watched a lot of cartoons when i was five so i saw the different art styles and thought " i wanna do that "
and now im stuck drawing anime for life
Welll... I do
I didn’t start out with books. I started drawing when I was three because in my nursery I went to there was dinosaur templates and I used to spend hours using the templates and then basically colouring them (it looked more like scribbling on top of the outlines though). I only got art books on my 12th Birthday.

Stupid bts Fan same.. i have no motivation to even start bc i know i suck at drawing plusninthink depression has a partnin this. Altho i wanna become a character designer.
Carolina Furtado omg same depression and my eating disorders and anxiety play such a big part I bet you are a better drawer than me anyway
Would you like to be UA-cam friends, and do you have like Tik Tok or some’in 😊maybe we could help each other get motivated with comics and stuff
Stupid bts Fan mood. I suffer from anxiety too but for now it hasnt shown to be troublesome for my drawings. Trust me im not even with references i just suck big time, plus its been a while since ive drawn cause like i said cant make myself pick up the pen. sure! I dont have tik tok tho but i do have my insta? (I dont have any drawings there, its my personal acc)
I’m not allowed to but my brother previously made an account so I could dm a singer, so I could use his😊 let me know what your account is and I’ll say hi, btw I feel you, and I’m still in the everything sucks stage as well but looking back at where I started and to where I am now I got so much better I don’t think positive, but you can ❤️ just look back at old drawings and say “wow I got way better”
Stupid bts Fan thats the thing i look past them and in my opinion i didnt improve on anything... my insta is Demoonia2
Every artist/writer/creator is still in the oc phase lol til they die. Things like Batman to Naruto to Frankenstein, that's someone's oc
Kam w the original creators of Batman are most likely gone but the legacy lives on with others’ original interpretations and stories. But it’s very true what you are saying, being in that “phase” myself. It really isn’t a phase if you take cartooning seriously.
Are you talking about the monster or the guy?
Guys On A Train I know Frankenstein is the man who created Frankenstein’s monster lol many people get that confused.
Deadpool is an oc
Omg your right. I never realized those characters are the OCs of someone.
My sister is in “I’ll just draw bangs so I don’t have to draw the other eye phase”
Ally Hugum yes
That makes them emo!!!
Mmmmmm yes thats me sometimes
I am kind of in that phase but I am also in the ‘everything I make sucks’ phase. About half of the oc’s I make will have those bangs covering the eye but I make more now with both eyes than I did before so I think I am slowly moving out of that phase.
OMG I'm in that phase too 😁😂
you forgot the

And Im now in the "I need to color my art" phase,totally the exact opposite

Lavendertown:The Oc phase is next

I thought "well I've never been in that phase" but then I remembered Middle school.
Then it was like "Oh shit! Oh god! I WAS in that phase oh nohoho!"
I am in it cuse of my universe
10:20 i Like to point out this is the one reason why I’m not going to art school
I feel u
I AM an oc at this point
How to draw:
1) Just draw
2) Every day
3) Use some references
4) Think outside the box
Right what I do
I saw a tumblr post once when I was like 13 that said how to draw: fill 14 sketchbook and I was like
Okay this is my mission
I’m 17 and I still only have like 7 hahahahah
I’m 1000000x better than I was back then though!!!
eh
If you draw every day even when you don’t feel like it, is probably the worst thing you can do. Obviously you need to give yourself a break. Often after a long break you come back way better than before. If you push yourself to draw to much you will get sick of it.
I've been doing this for 10 years straight! I've improved a lot.
I am going through the hands don't exist anymore phase
Same all my characters ossicle have flippers
I went through a similar phase, whwrw i would just put a really long coat to not to draw legs and hands
Heck, once i even made a one-armed dude because i didn't want ti draw the other arm!
Better than the "only draw elementles so i can blend the dress into the floor and make it floofy and get rid of hands, legs, and feet with one dress" phase i had last year
Vyolett McIntosh omg

@@what-mv8yp lol thx
Some of my best art has come from life drawings, since if I can see what im drawing it just makes it so much better
I’m in the “I love art, but I have no motivation so I don’t draw so often anymore.”
I’m also in the “I can only draw females and want to learn to draw males, but I still feel like my female drawings are not enough.” phase.
Same
lol yes I'm in a lot of phases right now and that's one of them- I'm still starting to learn this-
omg facts
I only draw female bodies because they're so fun to draw :) But I have to say, I'm getting better at male characters, too, even if I don't draw em that often

@@xxcandycornxx8255 teach me your ways
@@JustTurt practice ik it sounds like bad advice but practice makes perfect, as long as you don't get overly negative or gain a large inflated ego and keep a balance of knowing your pretty good/ok rn and that you could get better with the right criticism. Also be original and don't just become a copy of somebody else inspiration is ok but there's a line between straight up copying and inspired. And my second to last advice to you as an artist is to never give up you might wanna sometimes but if you keep going then when your a bigger artist who's been drawing for years and years you'll be happy that never ever stop going up that hill. ( sorry I got into the mood ) but also know it's ok if you don't think art is for you not everyone has to do it you can do it if you really think that's your passion and or hobby that's just what art is a hobby something you love doing that makes you happy. My final advice is to always remember your art is for you not other ppl. Yes there's commissions and stuff but always remember it's ok to like your own stuff as much as it is to know that you need improvement.
@@xxcandycornxx8255 omg you didn't need to do that, thx for the advice XD

I’m in that phase now T_T
I'm currently in a rare phase of "OH MY GOD I ACTUALLY LIKE MY ARTWORK" which I'm savoring. I finally feel like I'm starting to develop a distinct style, and it's a blessing after seven long years of self taught scribbles dissmissed as never good enough
Same... I've been searching for this phase my entire life-
i have those phases but they last for a small time period and then i get art block right after lol
I remember always being interested in art but I definitely wasn't talented... however looking back on it all the generic "oh wow thats really good, your gonna be a great artist" compliments really got to my head only now have I begun to compile the basic framework of decent art skills. I can't believe 12 year old me thought he was hot shit lol
*I think* I'm getting closer to that phase lmao
same, even though there will always be people better at art than me, i still think mine looks great. we all have our different ways of style.
im currently in the "i only draw girls bc i left my comfort zone and cant find my way back" phase
I only draw girls but I sometimes draw guys (I have only one guy in a whole sketch book that I believe I don’t use anymore)
Luckily most of my OC's (not all are countryballhumans) don't have hair,like...Steve
I used to do lots of girls, let's just say a lot of the fandoms I'm currently in has buttload of guys xD
@@riulf3476 Dude make sure u dont go to far in to a point where you cant go back
;-;
For some cursed reason, I can only draw men. Hot ass men, but still. I can't draw girls. I'm a girl, I used to do ballet (Only girls, lots of them), I went to an all-girls school, and guess what, I'm a lesbian. But I can only draw the hot dudes.
I feel like one phase that could work in tis video is "finding your style". I personally think this is one of the most important steps for improving. This phase helped me so much and I think it can relate to most artists no matter what materials they use.
Many of the people I know (myself included) did not have that phase. For me there is no such thing as finding a style, because this process never stops. I understand that it may work for some people, but, at the same time, I've seen so much beginner artists who got stuck because of this idea. When you're good enough and you have a good visual base (from the artists you like), it can fluently lead to your artworks becoming distinctive based on your preferences. So, it really depends.

That phase lasted so long for me that i eventually gave up on drawing and got a degree in neuroscience instead. I guess it's fine, but i do always wonder what life would have been like if i decided to keep pursuing creative outlets instead. I still have my old drawings that i look back on now, and think they were actually kinda good, even though i never made an OC, i basically mimicked other artists styles and characters. Oh well, i can live vicariously through you guys and everyone's awesome OCs on YT lol
@@BothHands1 that went from 0 to 100 real quick
ok but, you're literally drawing the phases, saying their good and bad sides, and giving tips too??? like i love you 😭😭
I'm at the...
"Only draw the upper body of a character"
Phase.
To learn how to draw the lower body, just use some references online and look at the way tge hips and things curve and how big they are in proportion to the torso.
The thighs are a few inches shorter than you entire torso. With legs, keep them tucked together and if you have trouble with that, stick one leg in front of or behind the other in a kind of relaxed state. Also helps if youa ccidentally curved your character's standing to the left or right. Gives it a reason.
Actually wait no
I just made huge leaps in drawing today ignore me
Empress Kam its not a phase......its forever

@@fiona9830 I would really suggest it! I didn't make a lot of OCs at first, but now that I have, I have a really fun time drawing them and adore them 24/7 haha....

“HEY that hand in your drawing doesn’t look like MINE you’re going to FAIL”
i don’t think that’s a good art teacher, i’ve seen that most art teachers and the good teachers don’t grade students on the quality of their art, but they grade it on the way they draw it, the idea etc
Change teachers
That sounds like the teacher from hellllll, but I must say I’ve had this teacher as well, and we made her quit cause some kid put hot sauce in her tea. Frick you Miss Lennon.
Rippp this is why I don't take art classes in school for like fun, cause they aren't. My friend had a teacher who didn't let you draw with mechanical pencils, and didn't let you shade normally. You had to cross hatch shade. You aren't allowed to draw anime, or anything "cartoon".
Drawing at home: 👁👅👁
Drawing in art class: 👁👄👁
I had a teacher put me down for a sketch, “that girl is NAKED“ she litterally yelled that outloud in the class. I put chili peppers mixed with hot sauce in her coffee.

I just draw sketches and never shade them ;-;
Me to
Same lol I draw too cartoony

I don't think learning realism is the only gateway to becoming a real artist. That's kind of a middle finger to us cartoon artists.
For me the hardest to get out is:
"I can draw well but I can't imagine what to draw"
Really this should be titled "phases character artists go through". The ones doing environmental art might go through different phases.
Shit i just begin this phase. God help
I am in this phase to so i just draw horror game and Creepypasta characters lol
The best way to get out of that phase is to draw something that you haven't before, it works for me
5 years. I've been in that phase for 5 years.

Me too! Cool username btw!
raccoonz raccoon gang 👌👌👌
Omg, same.
me toooooo gghgff
I'm in the "the same character looks different every time" phase
I'm in the opposite phase, "every character looks the same even though they're different people"
Other Side of the Screen omg AAAAAA SAME
But every other character you do looks the same, the only person I get the same every time (not including the face) is me as a character.
Somehow, I can’t make someone look the same consistently, but everyone looks the same??? I think I’m going insane
i'm in the different characters looks the SAME phase.
yesterday i drew Shiro from NGNL amd however she looks like Ray Gardner more than Ray Gardner...???
I have a phase where I’m like:
“I need to draw but homework is taking up all of my time though…”
And
“HOW DO I DRAW A WOMAN’S CHEST WITHOUT PANICKING-“
i’m in the “EVERYONE’S ART IS SO BEAUTIFUL, I WANNA DO THAT TOO!” phase-
sameeee
Yep same here
Same
Ah can relate
Hey you can do art too. But be warned, if you’re not completely invested in learning to draw, you will lose focus. Art is achievable by everyone. BUT. Try to find the book, “Drawing on the right side of the brain” It helps you learn how to create without restricting the way you look at things. It’s really boring, but it helped me so much in my journey as an artist. Try it out!❤️
my artstyle evolved from drawing my little pony my whole childhood but then my friend who's a literal god can draw perfect hands, anatomy, character design, stories by just watching anime for 2 years
Who are you and why do we share the same fate.
When I was like... 8 years old I draw My Little Pony stuff a lot and then there’s this kid who is basically can draw anything
Not with the MLP, but yeah everyone has that kid who can draw everything great.
I used to trace bases, then I tried making a SOOPER UNIQKE AWRT STYALLL,then I started using sketches underneath my art, then I got kinda better and started changing my style and adding in things that I saw famous animators do cuz' was inspired by them, then I became partly cute edgy because character development. Also hello lazii
Hmmmm do i know u?
Honestly same
I'm in the "everything I make sucks" phase, literally when I'm done working on a 23 hour artwork I just end up deleting it and then find a new idea to draw and then delete again.
Don't delete them, even if they look like a pile of trash wanted to look vaguely like what you want. When you've improved (and you will if you keep at it) and you feel like everything is horrible, you can look at the stuff you've made before and see that you have come farther than before.
@@mangle9143 THIS ^
I did a 17 hour artwork and I didn' t really liked it and also another 6 hour artwork which I still love seeing it every day
dont delete your work no matter how bad it is. im a new artist sorta and theres so many paintings i wish i wouldve kept to see my progress
I just end up getting frustrated with the art I make because it isn't the thing I imagined
I understand I need to learn but whenever I sit down and try to pull up a youtube video or just sit down and draw random things I'd get bored that I have to just draw poses to teach myself how to draw the things in my head.
I'm very afraid that I won't be able to draw again );
Best drawing tip ever: START SIMPLE. You can work your way up from there.
im part of the "i only draw one pose for every character because im not good with anatomy" phase xD
Yep....actually I have started to break through that phase, now I'm able to do more flowy poses but at different characters
They are mechanism body's in Walmart
That was me for the first like 10 years of my life
Same
I'm in the phase of 'I just got a new drawing program and have so many options but I don't really know what to do so I'll just improv it and see how it goes'
ive had my newest drawing program for 6 months and im STILL in this phase
Same!
Same
I actually fucking screamed when I saw that you're a filthy homestuck like me owo
@@midas3910 well then, hello, fellow filthy Homestuck
4:14 *Slaps down OC* This character can fit so much original ideas.
*Nods*
Is it a Mary Sue? ^•w^•
I didn’t have the “how to draw phase” using books. I struggled to follow the tutorials when I was a beginner artist. I learned by using basic shapes and looking at other photos for inspiration. I still use that method now lol.
“Hands always behind your characters back phase”
My littlest sis is in a one hand or both behind back and a peace sign
Phase
Snuggy Bug I relate
