I started with an interest in drawing anime; however, since watching your videos and trying your techniques my drawings evolved to more realistic comics.

[@RobertMarzullo]

Thank you for your comment Francis. I often go back and forth on styles too. It is a great way to find new things to add to your preferred methods. Some of my favorite comic styles incorporate both Manga and American Comics in them.
Good luck with your art and more videos on the way! 😁

[@bankitv5190]

[@iamalmetal]

[@venomousviper2781]

How are ur drawings now after a year?

[@iamalmetal]

i'd say i've improved. this channel's been a great help, other channels that helped me improved are mikeymega and brian proctor. i draw traditional style so those 2 channels are also a great help, go check em out.

"if your lucky enough to have friends..." XD why did this sentence sound so sad,

[@a_totally_normal_human]

Yes why

[@joshuamason1221]

Cause some people aren't.

[@Steaknlobster27]

Ye why

[@iwannasupportu5227]

[@jackb348]

Cos most people suck and most “friends” will stab you in the back.

Always gotta thank Robert for his tutorials!

@WellFishSticks thank you for giving credit where is due!

[@j.s.oliver2447]

Damn really wanted to know how to do this and then this video comes up. Saved

[@RobertMarzullo]

Happy to assist! :)

[@philipwhollingsworth3872]

I have practically learned everything I know about digital art and comic books from you Rob. You explain everything so simply and I hate when you put yourself down. It makes you sound like me Bro but at least I have an excuse. Live long and Prosper Bud and May the aForce be with you.

[@landonegan4210]

Dont draw comics but I’m a character design guy and not knowing how to draw a torso is a problem and this video just earned you a subscriber 😎👌

[@garykuzminski7969]

Holy heck. Just getting back into illustration after decades off. My work was traditionally cartoon-y and psychedelic. Never was good at "realistic" and would fake my way through. This video cut through so much and was so right on point. I cannot thank you enough. You have cut through so much future frustration in getting back to my first love. THANK YOU, BROTHER!

[@MR-ub6sq]

Thank you Robert. I really appreciate your speaking style when you are humble and modest when you explain. It’s enough because drawing works the way you sketch and develop the drawing - it tells you everything you need for your skills.

[@Spike-st9fn]

You’re really doing the art community a service with this one, I appreciate it so much! Thank you!!

[@LiamJonesArtist]

Not only have you taught me stuff about the neck, but you've inspired me to make my own tutorial! You rock, Robert Marzullo!

[@loop5720]

LITERALLY.....I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS FOR SO LONG! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU MADE A VIDEO ABOUT IT! THANKS YOU MAN! ;D

[@RobertMarzullo]

You're welcome and thank you for supporting this channel! :)

[@DarkestKnight2424]

@@RobertMarzullo hi, I recently started out with digital art
I'm interested in drawing cars, horror art and scifi , fantasy etc.
I plan on learning how to do digital painting.
But for now, I want to focus on cars and also learning the human body.
Learning how to draw the human body/anatomy will help me with my horror art as well as all the other art I plan on making.
So my question is, will this 'comic human anatomy' help me out or should I look for a more realistic style?
Btw, I'm using your video on the Lummis method for drawing a head
I know there is another guys method too but I'll end up using both and if I can find another one I'll use it too

[@BenMellingerArt]

thanks for sharing! your youtube channel is so helpful!

God, I WISH I CAN DRAW LILE THIS! I’m 31 now and I go through phases with drawing. And I always give up and stop. Tho, I can make it seem like I can draw.
