hey can someone help an artist out? i have no clue what level i am. my art Instagram is @wqfflesyrup, can someone help me? thank you 💘💕
@@wqfflesyrup8740 lvl 4 your eyes I am sure are intended to be large but they seem like they are abit outside the face and your necks are too thin and long work on it particularly that's really dragging everything down hiding it wouldn't help in the long term. good luck

Massive thanks for using my art in level 0!
whoa that's yours? it looks amazing XD
dana dekker thanks! I owe it all to practice!
My god I wish I could draw like you
@@LambOfRegress Just keep (not) practicing and you too can achieve this!
I really hope to be as good as you someday xD
Hey random artists! Just a tip on eyes:
-When drawing eyes, don't draw one eye, then the other. Instead, draw both eyes simultaneously by working on a certain part of the eye on one side, then do it on the other side copying the first.
Hope this helps
As a newbie, thank you for the advice! It does help a bit.
As a not-newbie, thanks for the advice as well😇😊.
I always need a reminder to do that👍
Thanks, i am new to drawing faces.

Agreed! Problems with videos like this are people joking but she genuinely critiques very respectfully!
yeah she did get on this video especially on the intro😊
Yeah!

Artist: *works whole life, drawing, making comics, and trying to improve*
Artist: watches video
Arist: is a level one
Artist: me
;-;
I thinks your comics are around level 2 or 3 not only level 1. LOL
;-;
i think you should focus on the simplest anatomy before anything else (personnally i still aint got this right), THEN focus on the lighting, then on the coloring. 3 years ago i was trying real hard to improve my level 1 art to LITERALLY ANY LEVEL, i never tried coloring before this year and after watching my dozens of anime and disney movies, i got coloring right ! i also got shading right ! and creativity radiates from me like for real:) so really u just need to focus on one thing at a time ! and choose a style thats really easy for you ! try to make line arts w no color to improve anatomy, make it all with references! try drawing a simple curtain or a skirt with its shades and lights to practice where you place ur lights ! for COLORING man idk how i got it right, try using coloring pencils to get back to the base of coloring ! and shading doesn't always have to be gray w colors! thats the only advice i can give u ! im not a professional AT ALL but my art isn't trash and you're definitely not a professional but your art isn't level 1 ! dont give up boo ! keep drawing !

10000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
Shes maybe a level 6
baked potonion was placed at a level two but if you check out their work now its super clean and nice, easily way higher
The problems you can have:
Level one:
-you usually spend a lot of time on your art
-the lines on your drawing aren't as confident as a level two artist
-held back by anatomy and shape
-the coloring is scribbled in fill for traditional art, in digital art there's white gaps or pixellated edges
Recommended drawing programs: FireAlpaca and Krita (they're both free)
*Keep drawing for fun, draw things you like and you will automatically get the experience you need to reach level two.*
Level two:
-lines and colors are cleaner than level one
-shading is imprecise
-anatomy and shape problems
-boxy feeling
-trying shades
-sketches aren't strong
Level three:
-rarely has issues with line
-pose might be awkward and unnatural
-maybe inbalance in the character's symmetry (flip picture to see if it's ungood (it's hell))
-shape can be off
*Even if you draw cartoons, you need to practice anatomy and shapes from real life*
-you should start paying attention on composition
Level four:
-if there's anatomy/shape problems, they are unnoticeable
-solid composition; rarely useless space
-some pieces will be well composed
The drawing can be very simple.
*Improve your art skill you have two options: formal or informal training. [...] Read a book. Do life drawings. Look for classes by artist who have been working professionally for more than ten years*
Level five:
-probably anatomy problems
-could have more defined light and shadow contrast
Level six:
She can't help you and I cannot either, it's just perfecto
Thanks for making this very helpful video, I going too look up at this channel!
Don't forget guys, never give up your art! ^w^
When you can't even draw a stickman
@@pillow1557 Try it, you will be suprised how easy it is to draw a stickman
@@pillow1557 no one can draw a stickman if they never try. If great artists gave up before they could even start there would be no good art. Art is not something someone is magically either good at or not good at. It's a learning process. You wouldn't expect someone to be good at math if they never learned how to add, why would it be any different with drawing?
I'm a 3
Me: Oh, I must be level 2...
**sees "spends long time on art"**

I'm not wrong tho
Yea *sits in lvl 2-3 with anime style amd too much ocs*
I rewatch this every year to see if i leveled up lol.
Same
Yeah.
Compared to a few months ago, I leveled up from 2 to 3
@@catsinwonderland7473 thats me too :) I've been here since 8th grade when my art was level 1 and now its level 3 as a sophmore!
Same! I was level 1 when this video was posted and now I think it’s safe to say that I’ve progressed up to level 6. Very proud of my improvement over the years but there’s definitely more I can keep improving on.
Woah. 5 years ago I saw this video and tried to place myself in one of these sections, and I found myself at a one. I was around 11 years old. Now it’s 11 at night, I’m 16, and I’m so proud of myself to say that I’ve improved - even in the slightest way. I’m at a level four or five now, and I’m trying to push myself even further! Super cool to see how far I’ve come, this is more of a self indulgent post but damn is this awesome
So proud of you man keep going!
@@beige_ing thanks so much Siya! You’re very kind :)
@@equally.marketable ofcc. I myself have been struggling but I’m really trna push myself. We’re in this together, the art community here
me and you both! thought I was level 3 at age 13, now I'm 16 and level 5 to maybe 6. perhaps it did pay off to keep going
I'm 13 and I'd say I'm about level 4! Super proud of myself:)
Me: Draws something shit thinking it's good
Video: You're level 1
Me: *surprised pikachu face*
No worries you'll probably get into lvl 2/3 2 years later
Lucky I'm on the lost lvl of
.0001 cause my drawing is just bad. Nothing else just bad
I still dunno what level am I tho =.=
ItzSuperEmily _ I think I’m level 5...
😂 LITERALLY ME 🤦♀️ I've been drawing for 8 years or more and I'm a level two or MaYbE level 3...
I remember the days when my art was in the 1-2 range. I would see beautiful drawings other people did and I aspired to become just as good as they are. Here I am seven years later with a 5-6 level skillset. For anyone who is just starting out, never give up. Draw as much as possible and give it time. Improving doesn't come quickly and that's perfectly fine. You will get there :)
Furrŕrdrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
*sniff* I needed to hear that, thank you
damn well done my guy :)
i also know that drawing improves over time... because... well... *looks over my bad old art using only circle heads*.... yeah.
Imagine in another 7 years, maybe exceeding level 7 or 8
Sometimes I think about little me 7-8 years ago drawing paw patrol characters & making warrior cats ocs and dreaming about having good art like the youtubers I watched at the time and here I am today, an adult, with a level 4 mindset, an actual tablet with a screen (albeit being an android tablet, still a huge step up from my pad tablet of years past).
I don’t make traditional art in the sense of like fully finished art with blooming colors and crazy realistic parts, mine is either b&w or using more faded colors and every time I try to finish something I make into a smooth colored piece I get so discouraged and usually give up. My finished pieces are always sketchy in some form since my style favors it & just looks off with smooth lineart. Weirdly though I take most of my inspiration from hanna barbera cartoons which are pretty smooth in looks
Anyway, I’m not sure where I’m going with this, I’m very proud of myself for how far I’ve come since then and I love my art style since it’s unique and I wouldn’t trade what I make for smooth brightly colored art. But I’m still insecure about it since a lot of people believe the latter to be “good”, and sketchy grayscale art to be “bad”. One of my mom’s friends has a kid who makes seriously incredible hyper realistic art and when I was a bit younger, around 4 years ago, making my cartoons she would always compare what I made to her and it really ruined my outlook and will to keep making art. If art and drawing weren’t outlets to get my emotions out I would’ve definitely given up because I felt I HAD to make a certain kind of art for it to be good. Luckily I didn’t and here I am now :)
What kind of art do you make if I can ask? Like what style do you primarily have?
I’ve been considering biting the metaphorical bullet and setting up a deviantart or something to post mine since I don’t share it and I’d love to make more art friends
sometimes I'm level 2, sometimes I'm level 5
Clorox Bleach sometimes I feel like shit😐
wow ;-;
Same, If I take a hour or more, it could be a 4,5,6

My best friend is THE BEST ARTIST I personally know (her yt is GreenTree Illustrations) I guess you'll have to see for yourselves 😜
This video has been on my "watch later" list for 4 years.
Today I finally watched it.
Good to know I'm between levels 4 and 5.
Love your content
Drawing is weird. When you just make a drawing you think you're like a level 5 but then a few years later you look back and realize it looked TERRIBLE.
Ultranoahroblox - Roblox & AJ Videos! I agree XD now I want to throw them away but my parents think that they’re *MAJESTIC*
Thats the struggle of keeping old art, but it shows you have improved
I'm a medium of confidence and not confidence.
Ultranoahroblox - Roblox & AJ Videos! So true
I know looking back at drawing i made as a kid with shadows and all aka level one and think its okay as a kid I though....
Omg this is the best thing ever lets go put it in the musium
Everyone: I'm good at traditional art but I suck at digital
Me:I can use black but when I use color It looks like a 4 year old colored it

Same bruv
SAME my old art is in this video and I come back to this all the time
Nice I have level 3 art :/
Me to!! :D
That moment when you realize a lot of level 1 drawings are better than your own, and you've been trying to draw for over 10 years.
*quietly sobs*
If it's anatomy/poses you're struggling with, try drawing athletes (baseball is my favourite to use) or dancers. It's helped me at least.
It took me about 30 Years of training, to learn how to draw. keep working.
Yeah. That's what makes this video false.
Nikku4211 no it is just very simplified
Alrik Scyriel That's not the case because an art experience where you've been drawing for years yet it still looks like a drawing from a 4 year old actually disproves what the person in the video is saying. That's not simplified. Simplified is if you're addressing everything that is important. Pretending some people don't exist isn't simplification, it's not knowing or ignoring.
My traditional art: Who are you?
My digital art: I’m you, but better.
So controversial, yet so brave
8 88 (and true)
Eh it’s debatable, it honestly just depends on what the person is better at.
HAHA ME TOO

I love how you made constructive criticism for lower levels without putting anyone on blast

@@viviv6774 why??
3:12 It’s my art! And it’s kinda cool coming back to this video years later.
I remember sending that drawing during my time in junior high, and I was super excited for the video to come out at the time! Of course, I was a little disheartened when I first heard my level, but eventually I started trying to work through some of my proportional issues!
I’d say I’m now level 3 and 4 nowadays, but I hope to still improve 😄
Nah your a good 4 or 5 imo by just looking at the stuff on your channel. Your an amazing artist keep up the good work! 💕
Wow! What a coincidence to find you here, and I'm proudly say you're on level 4 to def a 5 now! Your works are really amazing
I was actually surprised when they put you there, that was one of my favourite ones lol
When i saw ur art i was like "xiaochio? XICHI??" Massive progress youve made omg good job
See now it's kinda weird because at every level there are pictures where I'm like "I'm a million times better then that" and others on the same level like "That gonna take me a long ass time"
Yes, in my mind, she isn't objective by choosing the pictures.
And all the pictures made on pc or mobile - the app can do some shadows and highlight, so: why are you talking about coloring - I mean - jeah, do some art with pencil and paper"
Ikr
Same
Right
Relatable
“You can’t improve suddenly.”
*Me making a breakthrough in the overall design of a body part in my character*
“Hold my beer.”
lol same i do this too
Even that was because you practiced, studied anatomy or used a reference! They mean that you can’t do it immediately and not do any of these haha. Also this comment is old and I understand that.

@@forrestseven8355 I figured out how to draw legs like three months ago when I was drawing on my bathtub (dont ask) and I was like "Oh, what if I use this shape for the legs... :0" and now I can draw legs. I didn't really use references and I don't think I've ever studied anatomy other than the standard anatomy everyone knows lmao
Me, drawing:
I fear no man
But that thing
*making both sides symmetrical*
it scares me
Ellen Sacco HOW DO WE DO THIS
*_Digital artist laugh in symmetry tool_*
@@sumsum3873
It actually depends if you are drawing a living or inanimate thing
Like if it is a humans or animals you don't have to make it symmetrical
But if it's something inanimate like a building or a box try to keep sketching inanimate objects around your house and eventually you'll get enough muscle memory to draw symmetrical without thinking
@@sumsum3873
Sorry for my horrible grammar cause English isn't my first language
Quick trick: when drawing digitally, draw the character straight on (if going completely symmetrical) like you would normally. Make a layer above that, and make a black box that covers half of the character. move the box left and right to see which side you prefer. Then slide the box over which side you *don't* like, select the box, delete the box layer, and then erase (or cut) the line art within your selection.
Then select the other half (the side you liked), duplicate it, (copy and paste) flip it horozontally, move it to where it needs to be...then merge them together.
bam. Perfect Symmetry. (some programs have a symmetry function in them, and if yours do, then for the love of god use that.)
However, in every other angle, (that isn't "head on" or "facing the audience") perfect symmetry is useless and can make it feel unnatural. if drawing human figures, learn how perspective affects the various body parts, and use "arcs" (or half circles) to keep your limbs proportional, even when in a pose or in perspective. Facial features also line up on arcs rather than pure symmetry, which helps you a lot more when tilting the head in *any* direction.
I went to this video in middle school disheartened that I was only level two. Now, years later, I'm 4/5 and proud of how far I've come.
I remember watching this in 2016 where my art was probably around level 1-2. I felt really bad about being scored low, but really motivated to do better. almost 4 years later I can somewhat confidently say I'm a level 4 artist.
EDIT: It's January 2022. I'm going to Uni this year to study visual effects and entertainment design. I would probably say my art is level 6; with some elements of level 5. I am so proud of myself for my improvements and I only hope I keep getting better. Please don't give up. I've seen a lot of "but I'll never Improve" or "I've been drawing for over xyz years and I'm still not good!". I used to be there when I was much younger. I was sure that I was never going to improve but I stuck through it, worked harder than I ever did before and didn't lower my dreams of what I someday wanted to be. You will get there. It might take a decade. It might take an overwhelming amount of learning and practice but you will get there if you don't give up.
Same in 2018 I watched this and would probably have been 3ish and now I'm probably 5ish
I've recently started to practice my drawing. I'd say I'm a level 1.5 right now. Thank you for your comment. I'm trying to practice every day and hope to improve to a level 3-4 eventually. I don't plan on persuing and art career, but I really love animation and want to learn and improve my animation and drawing skills.
@@kirin1230 That's amazing, I watched this video last year when I was a level 1-2, now I'm a level 3, which is so cool for me to come back to. Hope you can do the same and be proud lol, good luck!
I cant figure out what level my art is-
First time watching this, I’m a level 4 artist, I do mainly traditional art. And now I have to ask for help and critique from my aunt, I’m lucky and have a professional artist literally a call away. I’m stuck right now, I don’t know how to improve so I’m gonna have to contact her. Wish me luck that I’ll level up into 5th level next year or even in 6 months! I’ve been drawing for 5 years now and I’m 13 years old.
0- when I have an art block
1- when I'm like 'meh'
2- when I actually put in some effort
3- when I put in A LOT of effort which I rarely do.
So yeah I'm a level 2
wait what exactly in the world same , how old are you im gonna gues between 11 and 15 .... Im 12
Poot Lovoto 13
I'm a level 2 RARELY I'm a level 3
wait what exactly in the world I'm level 2, sometimes I space out and become level 3 for a minute before being level 2 again.
I'm the exact same, I'm a level 2 but I can be level 3 if I try hard enough.
That moment when your drawing is a 4-5 but your coloring is 1 ;-;

When your coloring is 4-5 but your drawing is is 1.
Wow exactly how I feel. I was about to comment the same
When I first watched this in 2016 I was definitely a 1. I remember being insanely impressed by the higher levels. Now I think I’m somewhere between 4 and 5 :’)
I say this because even though I don’t think my art is on the technical level of five, I do think that stylistically would sell? Like I think my art is good enough and my art style is good/unique enough that people would buy art, but it’s not perfect execution, and while the technique is pretty OK, I have issues especially with proportion, hands, and lighting. However I don’t think that these are bad enough things/that I am bad enough at these days that it would stop people from finding my appealing
the gaps inside lvl 5 and 6 r so huge tbh when i first watched i was at 5 and now at 6 but the first piece from 6 is like lvl 12 im not getting to it ever lol

His anatomy wasnt bad. He saw a figure by different perspectives and tries to figure out the real form of life (for him and Braque, senses deceive us, and real shape it’s a 360’ view of the object or model)

Great idea. I'll just throw the proportions all over the place and pretend it's cubism.
I remember when I first found this, I was like level two. Now, (probably 2-3 years later but maybe more cuz my memory sucks) I’m at level three! I’m so proud of where I started and how far I’ve come and also just remembering how much I loved this person’s channel when I was in my Warrior Cats phase. No regrets, and I can’t wait to see in another 2-3 years where I am again!

I first watched this video when I was 12, 8 years ago. I come back to this video every couple of years and reminisce on how much I've grown as an artist.
Same here. It's really satisfying to see my art has improved, and how I feel like it stands up to other pieces in this video that stood out to me.
"When you look back at old drawings you'll notice the improvement."
And you'll think it's horrible and want to burn it!
yep, last year I drew stuff and I thought: Wow this is great! Now I look back at it and all it is is a scribble with some paint
i drew something in art class today, and i now want to burn that paper and stop drawing.
Lol me reacting to my old fnaf drawings like
"KILL IT BEFORE IT LAYS EGGS!!"
God I'm so glad I got outta that phase and improved in my drawings 😹

I watched this video as a kid, back then I was maybe level 3, and now coming back to this as an adult, I can confidently say I've reached level 6!

I just have problems with light my dude its tuff but we'll make it
It's been years since I first watched this video, my art was at a level 3-4. I remember looking at the level 6 artworks and dreaming of being able to create something of that caliber. Well, it turns out,
dreams do come true.
I know you posted this ages ago lol but can I see? That's incredible!

@@hlebzon first peice is fully rendered, depends on style tbh and also the others are more simplistic but you can see how they were drawn with ease and don't have any anatomical flaws etc. color choice and lighting are also very intentional. you can tell when someone knows anatomy and willingly bends it with those principles in mind vs makes mistakes which might happen when you're less aquainted w/ it
@ everyone who is saying they are at a lower level/saying they suck at drawing:
Congrats! You created something. You took the time to put pen to paper (or stylus to tablet) and created a piece of art. You created a character, a place, an object, a story. That's incredible.
You took your feelings and brought them to life. You took a thought, a sound, a texture, and turned it into something people could look at. Not a lot of people can do that!
So if you created something today, congratulations! You've added something to the world. In another universe, this character, place, object you put on paper today now exists.
So don't ever say your art "sucks". Because if it came from your heart, it's amazing.
That being said, criticism isn't the same as hate. Those who give you helpful, constructive criticism are experienced in what they are doing. They know how it feels to bring a feeling to life. And they want to help you bring yours to life as well.
That's why, don't ever get discouraged. Always keep creating art. If you don't think your art is worth it, you're wrong. It's worth it, because it came from you.
But the stronger your art becomes, the more your thoughts will radiate off the paper. The more you practice, the more your art will come to life. Creating something knew feels great. And having that feeling constantly grow stronger? It's incredible.
So keep drawing. Keep painting. Keep animating. Keep doing whatever you're doing because you have the power to take something imaginary and make it reality.
We believe in you!

@@TheWildBrownWolf thank you
So I'm 15 and I've recently been through a phase of not drawing anything for weeks because everything I did looked awful and I was too scare to try to draw something and have to face it's not as good as I wish it was

-drawing
Maybe you should watch this UA-camr called Nautica Williams
i used to struggle a lot with the other eye (and just covered it with hair lol) but i recommend lightly sketching the general shape of the eye before adding all the tiny details. about heads, i think doing the circle + guide line thing is super useful to get the general shape of the head. about hair, i would think you need to learn about hair volume and flow before adding all the details. LeslieLu Marie's hair tutorial is pretty good for anime / decently detailed hair, hope this helps^^
SOMEONE WHO UNDERSTANDS THE HAIR YESSSSS!
I hate drawing the front hair. w-w
Pinello I had that second eye problem too a while ago but now it’s not a problem anymore. When you draw them, don’t do the first one and then the second one, drawn both of them progressively.
A little tip for level two sketches! Pressing down you pencil can indeed help with bringing up the contrast of your work. However, it can also create a glossy, reflective quality in your drawing. I'd recommend getting some 6B or 8B pencils to color in darker areas, and rather than press harder you can try going over the same area multiple times (This covers the paper while adding minimal amounts of reflection)
is sketch here meaning it is done but looks like sketch OR does it mean it is meant to be erased and replaced by the actual thing?
I assume the 2nd meaning
I press lightly because i need to erase, if i press harder i cannot
@@aykarainthey were referring to finished grayscale drawings where people press their pencil down harder to make it appear like a darker color

Everyone is talking down below about how "bad" their art is. It's not. Listen, Levels 1 and 2, your art is NOT bad. You simply need to improve it. take a step back and say "what can I do to make this better?" And then do it. Look, you're not gonna learn how to draw in a day- or a year for that matter. It takes dedication and practice. I've been taking art seriously for 5 years, and even then, I'm still only a level 4 or 5. It will take a while. All you need to do right now is focus on learning and observing. If you need help with this, I've made a sort of checklist to help you.
Step 1: Anatomy
This will take you FOREVER to fully understand and draw. heck, I'm still struggling with it. It's best to start figuring it out asap. Trace images online to help you or try to copy them. What you need to focus on to help you learn are these:
- Limb length
- Placement of joints
- Bones (drawing skeletons really helps)
When tracing, think of these things. Experiment with them often and draw without tracing to help better your understanding of how it all works. If you don't want to trace, take a reference photo and try to copy it. This sounds hard, and it will be at first. However, if this is the way you want to do it, make sure you take note of the same thing as above so when you need to improvise, the drawing will still make sense.
Step 2: Coloration
Like what Crowne Prince said, it's highly recommended that you use colors that compliment each other. What I mean by that is this: Orange and blue are opposites, so they look very, VERY harsh together. However, blue and either red or yellow are (slightly) softer and more pleasing to look at. The best two combinations, however, would be blue and either purple or green. This is because they are right next to each other on a color wheel. Look up Color Theory to learn more, but in a nutshell, it's this:
- Opposite colors look harsh when put together (blue+orange, green+red, purple+yellow)
- Cool colors (green, blue, purple) look good to make a calm piece
- Warm colors (red, orange, yellow) look good to make an action or eventful piece
- Neutral colors (black, white, brown) go well with basically all of them
By putting complimentary colors together, you make a piece that's both easy to look at and easy to understand. You can, however, use something like purple and yellow together to reinforce the oddities or importance of a certain detail (Yellow cat fur, purple eyes). Putting big chunks of these colors together is a risky move, so be cautious while doing it.
Step 3: Shading & Lighting
DO NOT TREAT THESE TWO LIKE THEY ARE THE SAME THING! There are differences between them, and they will affect the look and feel of your drawing differently.
-Similarities between both-
Both shading and lighting will make your drawing pop off the page. All you really need to know is where your *light source* is and how the *anatomy* works. For tips on anatomy, see Step 1. Your *light source* is the single point of light your subject will be in. If you're a beginner, refrain from drawing things like multiple spotlights for right now. The light source will determine how and where the shading and lighting will be. If it's behind the subject, the shadows will be visible all over the character. If it's to the side, the shadows will be opposite the light source and the lighting will be more toward it. Both will follow the movements of your subject, which is where anatomy comes in. Now, let's dive deeper into each.
-Shading-
Shading isn't too much to learn. If you've got anatomy nailed down, this should be a bit easier since you know how the body moves. First off, please, PLEASE avoid using black or grey shading. This color will make your drawing look flat and not so lifelike. A good technique for shading is using the complimentary color (the harsh ones that look bad together) to do this. LEMME EXPLAIN. These colors look bad when they're al full, high opacities. HOWEVER: shading is usually on lower opacity, making them look kinda nice. Also: (depending on the piece, of course) going closer to the color black (but again not grey or pure black) is a nice way to do it. Example: the Detroit Lions colors, orange and blue, are pretty harsh together, right? Well, when drawing their tiger logo, the color used to shade is commonly blue! The color makes the base colors stand out and really brings it to life. Another technique (the one I use) is to take the current color, make it darker, and then add more color in. This means that the base color will need to have some grey in it, but trust me, the results look amazing.
-Lighting-
Lighting, again, follows the subject's anatomy, however much more loosely. This means that there will be less lighting than shading in your piece (usually, every piece is different). You want to make sure you know how the subject moves (which means that if you were to spin the character around 360, you'd never have the shading move unless the lighting is moving as well. Practicing shading and lighting with both these techniques is a good way to study both anatomy and s + l). Example: Shading usually goes under the cheeks of a character, and the lighting usually comes to a stop in a central dot (no matter how big) on the part of said cheek closest to the light source. Again, every drawing is different, but generically speaking, the lighting will only highlight either the most important parts of a character or the part of the character facing the light source. A good piece will often combine the two to create something that looks very natural and often realistic.
Step 4: Texture
This is one I'm still experimenting with myself, but from what I've seen and tried, texture needs to not only look appropriate on a subject but also needs to be well shaded and lighted so the viewer knows where the attention should be- where the artist PUT the attention. Here's what I mean. If your character has fur, you want to make sure that the viewer can clearly see the fur and what it should feel like- rough or soft, gnarly or straight, etc. If you choose not to put fur, however, that's fine so long as the less important things in an image DON'T have texture. If they do, the drawing will feel odd, like we should be focusing on the background more. I mean, unless that's what you want. Here are some important things to watch out for:
- Texturize the most important thing in your image the most above all else
- Make sure the texture fits (a messy cat's fur will not be straight)
- If you're drawing with line art, make sure you plan ahead with your sketch what all needs to happen so you won't need to go back and edit
- Make sure your shading and lighting also follow the flow of the texture (rocks are hard in this sense)
Texture will take a long, LONG time to master. Like I said, I've been goin' for years and even I'm still figuring it out. Look at reference pictures with the same or similar textures and see how it flows there and try to either copy it or apply it. Seriously, reference photos are HUGE. I attended a three-week, twice-a-week college class with a pretty darn good artist (he does photo realism) and he used reference photos for. EVERYTHING. I'm learnin' why: they're SUPER useful, especially for textures. Use them often- they're what'll save you from a massive headache later on, if not now.
Step 5: Practicing and Critiquing
Practice drawing all the time. Try doing different animals in different positions, or if that's not what you want to learn, do what you want. However, there are a couple of tricks you can use to help yourself.
- Sketch everyday things around you over and over to get the feel of them
- Practice drawing random people just walking by you. this forces you to draw fast and still comprehend how they move
- Sketch the same thing over and over until you nail it
- Watch speedpaint videos and tutorials (take what you see there, critique it, and apply it to your own art)
- After completing a piece, step back and ask "What can I do to make this better?" and apply it to your NEXT piece
Sketching every day all the time is what really got me going to where I am now. A flower, a bee, your neighbor, anything. Study that thing and learn how it moves, how the shadows and light fall onto it, the anatomy, and of course the coloration. By watching speedpaints and art tutorials, you can learn from other people who are already good and apply the same tactics they use. need help finding some good ones? Search up Artyjoyful, WalkingmelonsAAA, Arron Blaise, and that one person who made a realistic Santa Clause on FREAKIN MS PAINT. Those guys are all good examples of incredible artists who know what they're doing. Now that you've got a video, don't just watch it or jam out to the song playing in the background- study it. "Why did they leave that part unshaded? What's with that tiny almost unnoticeable dot on their nose? Why didn't they add color to that spot?" Now that you've started really looking at what they're doing, critique it. "Well, I don't like that one blank spot (it was probably a mistake), so I'll make sure that my own art doesn't leave any large holes like that. And that dot on their nose helps really bring out how strong the lighting is, and I like it, so I'll apply it to my own art." Then actually apply it and boom. You're already improving. Do you live in a house with stairs in it? How many are there? can't answer? Well, that's because you've seen the world around you but not observed it. Count those stairs (there's 12 in my house going upstairs, 15 going down). Do this with art as well. Try to take in every detail and replicate it. THIS DOESN'T MEAN ADD EVERY HAIR ON A PERSON'S HEAD. Try to texturize it so the viewer knows those strands are there but you don't have to go through the agonizing pain of drawing every single one. Do this with reference photos and speedpaint as well.

Dimonds 456 mmm i would say your art is more like level 2-3
Aurélie Chen Why? Not to be rude, im honestly just curious, but why a 2-3? What makes it this?
Dimonds 456 if they need to improve it wouldn't it be considered as bad?
PJ P No. No one ever, EVER masters art. There is always more to learn. So, by applying your logic of “needs improvement, is bad” that means that no art is good.
Just because it can be improved doesn’t mean it isn’t good. Take me for example. I’d call myself at least a fairly good artist, and yet, I can see all the places I need to work on (feet, clothing wrinkles, glass, backgrounds in general). You have your own opinion, but my art isn’t completely terrible, is it?
No art is bad, nor is an artist considered bad at what they do. I all depends on how much experience they have, how much they are willing to improve, and how far they are willing to push themselves to ge there. All those Level 6s? They have serious self discipline. Levels 1 and 2 are either beginners or don’t want to push themselves to improve. It’s all about experience, not how “good” or “bad” art is.
Dimonds 456 oh, i'm not trying to be rude either. well, first of all, you seem to have a problem with anatomy. the hand aren't quite right, or sometimes the head is too big, or the arm or too long etc or the faces aren't quite symmetric. also, the positions of your characters are quite stiff looking. moreover, your compositions lack details; either it is clothes, background, hair etc..which makes the overall composition look simple. also, the shading/coloring; even if your colors complements each other, they are too mmmh bright? like, it isn't really pleasant to look only at primary colors and such. Maybe you should try to use more varieties of colors which are less bright, and also try to not only shade with one single color.
moreover, we don't really know if you're aiming for a 2D cartoonish art style or a 3D one. that's because you use too much airbrush but then the lack of depth breaks the 3D feeling.
of course, i'm just being objective, and mainly biased on this video; I gave your level comparing the compositions of this list. And that's how i found some similar mistakes level 2-3 artists make; most of the time, lack of consistency. ( i would say your art looks a lot like (not in terms of art style ofc) : 2:59 ; anonymous / 4:20 ; DeviantKeyBrian / 4:42 ; Gosku3 / 4:46 ; Hayden R / 5:47 ; NightClaw / 6:48 ; Bokkunthedrawperso / 7:14 ; Fliksie & Frostedscales / 8:52 ; MelloChello195 / 9:29 ; ScribblePen / 9:34 ; Sleepy-Sheepy-Wolf / 9:54 ; Tori M / 10:01 ; Waterfallandthegang )
sorry if i'm not really clear with my words, english isn't my mother tongue.
watched this when it first came out, level 1 or 2 & I finally consider myself level 5 7 years later
6:08 my god listen to her! Everyone I meet asks that, my grandfather could *learn* to animate. Illustration is finalizing a still image of something and putting effort in a scene, animation is putting images to 'fake' movement. You may want to be a good illustrator if you want your animation to look a certain way but the worst illustrator could make a beautiful animation just for the fluidity of it alone.
Well said
Like bill wurtz
My worst enemies:
Hands.
Nose.
Mouth.
(When I try to draw realistic)
Hands and mouth. Totally
Just look at the bones in the hand and do some life drawing from pictures on the internet. In fact, learning the muscles and bones would fix all of those problems. Some people find that boring, but it really helps.
oml yes
nose its not that bad
Always observe people, the body posture and the anatomy.
Just by observing for 3 years, I don't need to use a base drawing anymore. I only draw stick people... :(
Ok... so at first, I’m like:
“Oh I’m probably a 2”
And then later im like:
“Nah, I’m better than that. Imma 3”
After that, I still didn’t believe my thoughts so I said:
“Ok, imma 4”
Until, after that I decided I was a five
(No six was ever mentioned...)
So... I drew a picture and showed my mother.
The first thing she said:
“What is that.”
Thanks for all the likes! 😋
Wow XD
That's honestly sad xd
That made a depression inside me
x to doubt
just depressing lmao
Coming back after a some years to know my art went from juuuust passable of a 4 to now professional work tickles me. This video popped up when I was a wee 13 year old with the unsteady work of a new skill; I’m currently in my second year of uni and am on track to become a games concept artist!! Idk why I’m writing this, mostly for my own merit because I’m honestly pretty proud of how far I’ve come in the seven years since I found this video. It’s scary how quick time passes, but with everything I’ve learned, I wouldn’t change it for the world. Keep at it y’all! :3
That's really awesome to hear!!, do you have any socials where u have your stuff? im really interested to see your art now
Ages ago when I watched this I was at Level 3.
Now I am just graduating to Level 5. 😅 oh my how time passes by.
This video is more about cartoon characters I think. Drawing stuff from the real world and trying to make them as realistic as possible is so much harder than a simple 2d cartoon and looks so much better. Im prob at lv4 or sth but to be honest most of the lv5 and some of the lv6 pictures look like nothing special and I like my art better.
Luminaara I was 9 when I watched this and I was at level 3 and now I’m 10 and I’m at level 5
Luminaara I'm watching this now xd
And congratulations! :D
@@ih8tq u suRe AbOut Dat
Last time I watched this I was around 2-3
I think I’m 1 now
artist nightmares
hands
feet
other eye
(for traditional) drawing for 2 hours before realising that ur paper is slanted
hair
*art block*
I cant draw without my paper being sideways
Bendy the Little Devil Darlin my nightmares, as someone who would die if to save my life I need to draw humans:
PAWS
OPEN MOUTHS
POSES
And that’s it.
thaT LAST ONE FR
I can't understand what your saying
@Abbixlina Oh nvm, I could not understand why the "art block" is bold.
i can almost hear the angry artists screaming HOW DARE YOU RATE MY ART now
also i watched this a year ago: level 3
now: level 5 depending on how much effort i put in and how well drawn the reference i'm drawing from is. i got way better at anatomy and posing, plus shading practice.
More people should see this comment. Someone who improved from a 3 to a 5 over the course of a year. You should post some new and older art Yuanyuan. I too have improved in the last year and a half. From about a 4 to a 5.
Lies.
I improved from a 3 to a 5 in a year, I didn’t know it was that incredible. I can’t show you because I’m not allowed to have a DeviantArt, so I don’t expect you guys to believe me XD
MAWS 329 agreed
Hey, same amount of improvement in same amount of time! (是中国人吗？）
OH my God when I first watched this video, I thought I was for sure level 3 (probably in 2017.) Now I'm looking at my new art, and I think I'm a level 5 or 6 for some of my best pieces. I'm totally shocked, I'm just so proud of myself and how far I've come. I've even started selling my art, teaching at a local studio, and gotten accepted to a college. Thanks so much for inspiring young me :)
*has beautiful level 5 shading and coloring*
*literally has no anatomy*
*draws a well colored puddle*.
I guess I am a level 5.

Socia Lips nope I'm pretty much the same. I think my art is generally a level 3 though I hav some level 2 art but my school artwork is level 4. But my school work does take a LONG time to do and it's quite detailed. I once stayed up till 3 finishing a piece 0_0
