Shiny metals have been one of my favorite things to draw so far (despite not even being all that good at it yet), so this video is just perfectly up my alley
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU SAM this is literally the video i've been waiting for. for the past like three weeks i've been thinking "man i need to learn armor. it's so pretty but i don't get how it works. i should go find some references and practice." and then you SERVED and gave me the exact video i needed!! thank you so much ima go practice now
my face always goes :D whenever I watch sam does arts' videos cus they teach me more than any book or art tutorial ever has and for that I will always be happy also I pre-bought your art book and I've been counting the days since then, waiting for it to arrive lol
This was actually exactly what I needed. The next section of the art fundamentals course I designed for myself is rendering materials. This could not have come at a better time.
i know these videos may not get as many views as some of your other content, but i love your art tutorial/info dumping videos, they're so informative!!
the thing I liked about Samdoes and other Artdads out there and art teachers doing free video tutorials on ytube is that as we improve our arts these people are still out here giving us the tips we needed some reminding us of how far we've gone through in this journey....
As someone who would like to one day draw their dnd characters, this is fantastic, thank you. As someone who knows a lot of mini painters, I can never show this to them in case it inspires them to try painting non-metallic metals. Because that way lies madness.
Ruan jia is polar opposite of sam, that madman literally does pixel detail. He doesn't draw for others he draws for himself. And i respect it. Remember that drawers
I practice Historical European Martial Arts, and doing so actually helps a ton when drawing fight gestures, designing arms and armor, and understanding anatomy.
i remember sam referring to himself as an art baby compared to people like wlop and guweiz, of whom he considered art gods. now he refers to himself as an art god! progress! (i received your art book in the mail a couple of days ago and it was PERFECT)
I can't even explain how perfectly you timed this! My current project is a knight in armour and I wasn't really in the mood to start the armour, because it looks STRESSFUL. I think I'm ready to start now.
Even though I knew I would have to depict what's reflected, this made it look so easy! It will be useful for my current project... When I figure out what environment to place her in.
Gracias por el video, lo necesitaba para un personaje de mi libro que dejé hasta el final por miedo a no saber cómo hacer armaduras, gracias a tus videos y tutoriales en gumroad he podido hacer ya poco más de treinta personajes y estoy a solo tres de acabar a todos los personajes de el libro que menciono, me cayó como anillo al dedo este tutorial, me suscribiré a patreon para ver algunos de tus video haciendo armaduras, gracias maestro.
THANK YOU I've have so many ocs that are somehow involved with war or fights, so they have a lot of armour and i've been STRUGGELING every time i drew any kind of metal. This helps so much ty man ur insane🙏🏻💜
3:22 true! I mean it kinda depends on preference me personally I usually use a semi-textured (it has no texture when I press all the way but some texture when I press lightly) flat brush but like I use it for EVERYTHING and it works wonders, but I can do pretty much the same thing with a round brush it really is just a matter of preference
A place called outside? I've heard stories of how dangerous outside is. I've also heard about these metal boxes with 4 round rotating thingys. Very spooky indeed
Btw, at 7:00 you said that the jewelery is reflexting the light from her face, but the lightsource is from the opposite direction, so why didnt you draw it on the left just like on the right??
Thanks art dad!
You mean daddy😂
@ByronWilliams_Topic 💀💀
More like art daddy 🥵
@ByronWilliams_Topicyou mean art diddy
This Sentence is not properly written you should of said Thanks art DaDdy 😩 isn't that better and we need to touch some grass ❤
I didn't know that I needed to know how to draw armor,but Sam easily convinces
0:46 "I'm sure you've never seen it before "
Ah, Sam knows me so well.
Samdoesshinyballs!! thanks for the shiny thingy tutorial!!
Does shiny balls 😭😭
Working on a scifi series and this tut was severely needed😭😭
3:42 "its gonna be a little bit yellow, like me"
I felt that, Sam, as a fellow yellow.
Thought it said "yellow fellow" HELP
Greatly appreciate Sam actually drawing armor from scratch to demonstrate :)
Finally. The key to drawing Silver Surfer
But he's in space what background can u even use 😭😭
@ThaMemezgodd comets and the sun I guess
0:23 This drawing is INSANE whatever u said cause the environment around the oc is so hard to copy in the armor ur INSANE sam.

Hi! Loving the work! I’ve been trying to make metal but I never found a good tutorial until this.
The fact that you posted this while i’m drawing armor , is making me paranoid😂
He'd in ur closet probably
The amount of dedication that I watch with even though I will never do it...
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU SAM this is literally the video i've been waiting for. for the past like three weeks i've been thinking "man i need to learn armor. it's so pretty but i don't get how it works. i should go find some references and practice." and then you SERVED and gave me the exact video i needed!! thank you so much ima go practice now

Sam:BEHAVE YOURSELF 😤
puppy: *cutely runs away*
Sam is straight up one of the GOATs for me when it comes to art content. Such a good teacher
Sam posted!! It’s gonna be a good day!!
"No one is ever going to look at your painting that long". I needed to hear that.
6:22 imagine mid battle turning around and seeing shrek staring at you with those abyssal eyes, i'd pray he's not my enemy
STOP THIS IS PERFECT TIMING I JUST STARTED DRAWING A CHARACTER WITH ARMOR
how dare UA-cam hide this from me for 22 seconds
Oh beleve me it can be worse... mine hided it for an houer!!
@@katriencreatief9056mine worst….9 HOURS!!!😭😭😭
I followed along with the tutorial and just the bit you mentioned today I will forever remember. Thank you Sam, it definitely helped.
This was actually exactly what I needed. The next section of the art fundamentals course I designed for myself is rendering materials. This could not have come at a better time.
“The more you know the less you know” 😭😂 true
I HAVE BEEN DYING OVER HOW GOOD THE ARMOR IN THE ART BOOK LOOKS THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR SECRET
IVE been trying to draw metal for ages, and all I previously knew was to include brown and blue, because metal reflects and you need contrast :p
i know these videos may not get as many views as some of your other content, but i love your art tutorial/info dumping videos, they're so informative!!
Ngl I miss when sams videos were longer
the thing I liked about Samdoes and other Artdads out there and art teachers doing free video tutorials on ytube is that as we improve our arts these people are still out here giving us the tips we needed some reminding us of how far we've gone through in this journey....
Thank you for being so gosh darn entertaining while holding us accountable
Finally an armor tutorial from the Goat
i've been wanting to draw armor like this for a while now, I absolutely love the way you paint armor
Sam has a way of making the hardest things in art more simple to understand. ❤

He doesn't draw for others he draws for himself.
And i respect it.
Remember that drawers
7:48 I'm so excited about this
so much shade... all the shade .. all so on point too. Thanks!! Learned a lot :3

0:31 becoming Armour art gods starts with balls
I think this is the best tutorial for shining armor I saw until now❤
i remember sam referring to himself as an art baby compared to people like wlop and guweiz, of whom he considered art gods. now he refers to himself as an art god! progress!
(i received your art book in the mail a couple of days ago and it was PERFECT)
AHHHH YAY SAM POSTED
This is the reason why I am happy subbing to Sam’s Patreon.
This video made me want to draw backgrounds first instead of last.
under 1 minute ago is insane (i swear i wasn't stalking)
I can't even explain how perfectly you timed this! My current project is a knight in armour and I wasn't really in the mood to start the armour, because it looks STRESSFUL. I think I'm ready to start now.
Really needed an armour tutorial lately, thank you Sam! ✨
Even though I knew I would have to depict what's reflected, this made it look so easy! It will be useful for my current project... When I figure out what environment to place her in.
You can't even imagine how much I needed it. Thank you for your positive videos
I adore that you made this video after I’ve been OBSESSING over how you draw armour
DUDE I just saw this post on instagram you did so good at drawing armor! My friend and I were in awe bro
Thanks a lot, Sam. I don't know if I'd ever be interested in drawing armor, but this is very useful in drawing other shiny objects like jewelry.

A place called outside? I've heard stories of how dangerous outside is. I've also heard about these metal boxes with 4 round rotating thingys. Very spooky indeed

Sherek is right behind you!
Super helpful Ty Sam!

Btw, at 7:00 you said that the jewelery is reflexting the light from her face, but the lightsource is from the opposite direction, so why didnt you draw it on the left just like on the right??
looks pretty good 👏👏
So it just depends on the background.... Gotta learn how to do background as well-
The armor of Sema's drawings shines more than my future.
