      @@dready529 Ooh wee. I actually just took Anatomy and Physiology during this past first semester. So, uh, I now understand the human body in pretty high depth. It's, um... actually made it harder to draw. Now my shoulders and chests look like crap. So I have to rediscover how I drew. Because my art has taken a toll. Trying to use my detailed 3D model of the human body to draw on a flat, 2D sheet of paper is actually backfiring. Go figure.

      True - However - It may just feel overwhelming to some of us to encounter such a huge difference in ability and not feel like one knows where to start.
      But, essentially, yes - "Less crying and more trying." ;-)

    • @johnaquino7619
      @johnaquino7619 4 роки тому +8

      @Ipinu Yusuf .
      Correct - Discouragement is one of our biggest challenges to overcome.
      Nothing wrong with being modest enough to try to honestly admit we're not where we want to be in ability,
      so long as we don't fixate on that negatively to such an extent that we lose sight of the bigger picture.
      Conversely, overestimating our ability can be a problem too. :-)
      Anyway, it's all a work in progress.
      If any are getting stuck with despair - Essentially - Chin up. Hang in there! It can get better. :-)

      I think its normal though, since if someone get bored, they will do some kind of that thing, just draw the one they like, the character, making new characters. But basically, someone do that to save more paper and they feel that the paper still can be use for drawing even though that the space was not really big enough, they will try to make it fit

    Seeing this disheartened comment section makes me want to help 🤣 So, here’s how I improved rapidly fast. It may not work for you, but it did for me.
    1. First priority is to learn how to draw from the shoulder. That’s how you get those satisfying sketchy lines.
    Draw circles or hearts over and over. As light as possible. When you’re doodling in class, fill up the corners of your page with them. This will also allow you to learn how to draw new styles/techniques way faster.
    2: Don’t worry about style at first. Focus on being able to sketch and doodle. If you happen to stumble upon something you like, by all means, stick with it, but don’t make it first priority.
    3: Watch everything around you. Inspect the anime’s you watch, look at the people around you, watch real life perspective. Now, everything around me looks like art because of the amount of attention I pay to detail 😅
    3: After you can draw from your shoulder and doodle, then start binging art tutorials and following along. You’re already miles ahead from the comment section complaining how they can’t draw a circle properly or sketch.
    I’ve been drawing for about a year and a half, and I’m not to the level this artist is at by any means, but I’m at a pretty good level for my my age 😅 I can draw my ideas how I imagine them and sketch pretty well. As someone who didn’t even know what construction lines were three years ago, I can confirm that there is hope for all of you

  • @silentunclear6706
    @silentunclear6706 4 роки тому +720

    Well, if anyone is still here, here's how I got better:
    Basically I'm studying animation and we have drawing as the second priority class,
    First exercise: Blind contour - Pick up your book and pencil, ask someone to draw them, now without looking at the book, draw the person in one line only. Yes it looks awful for everyone in the beginning, even students who had arts for high school. This is great for line control.
    Second exercise: Textures - Find a texture, now draw it as best as you can, no you're not meant to do it with just one pencil, be resourceful, make your own brush if you need.
    Third exercise: Perspective - First take pictures of corridors, now trace the lines, you should find that it all connects, that's a vanishing point. IRL there's too many vanishing points, in illustration we keep it to one, two or three points.
    Fourth exercise: Model drawing - This is hard because you can't just hire someone whenever you're at home ready to draw, so find ANYONE, look at them once, now draw them super quick. You're not supposed to draw the faces or the hair or the fingers if you can't, just the body, understand weight and movement.
    Fifth Exercise: Lines of action - If the one before wasn't fast enough, this one is. You want to draw the person like they are movement and not even a person. Find the line of action on their body (Search it, it just be one simple google search.)
    Sixth Exercise: More Perspective - Like, we're getting into geometry here. Cubes, balls, triangles, rectangles, whatever, set up a small assortment of random crap, sit down, look at it and draw it with 1:1 scale (From your POV), use your pencil to take a medium measurement, now use that to guess the other measurements, you can however measure everything by pencil, but that's a ton of work.
    Seventh Exercise: MORE PERSPECTIVE - Not just any simple shapes anymore. Draw your room top down, now add a point where you're standing and draw your line of vision. You will now turn your 2D drawing into 3D! Super hard to explain in words, so I don't think you'll be able to understand this one, which is fine, you're here to be grow, but not take a whole class.
    Eighth Exercise: IRL Drawing - Use what you learnt in the 3rd, 4th and 6th exercises, go to a park, draw the scenery first (This is a must always, scenery first, characters second), when you're done doing what you can with your line work, draw people and their poses as quick as possible, don't try to get that finger right, can be up their bum for all you care for now.
    Ninth Exercise: IRL Shading - Apply what you can from your 2nd exercise to your Eighth without ruining the whole thing. How? If you don't have enough line control, refer to fifty pages of the 1st. Leave the people white pastes on the sheet.
    Tenth exercise: Deconstructing - Now you'll start drawing faces and whatnot. But first, animals! Horse, now draw him, using rectangles, no smaller than the hoof as a singular unit. Apply perspective ALWAYS. Like just have a one point perspective, fuck the scenery for now. Done? Good. Other animals like dog, rat, birds. Just keep doing it.
    Eleventh Exercise: Human Deconstructing - Using perspective, draw a person with hands as cubes and singular units. Feeling good? Use the thumb as a singular unit (Fingers, wow, also forget the face for now).
    Twelfth Exercise: Facial Deconstructing - Same as above, but the face only, but cubes won't do it now. The name is the same but the exercise is quite different, use a mirror to decode your facial construction with a pencil, just measure distances from eye to eye, eye to mouth corner, nose to ear etc... The objective is to draw your face in 3/4ths with the things you learnt on this exercise comment.
    This is the extent I'd go, but here's a list of easy exercises that just help you out without feeling like a college chore (Like it did for me):
    Blind contour; Model lightning sketches (Same as 4th + 5th but just faster); Textures; Applied Perspective (Basically deconstruct bodies like the tenth).
    As a matter of fact this sheet doesn't cover a fifth of what I did in one semester, but I'm learning real life drawing (Which just helps with any drawing down the line), but it does cover most of the essentials. Two things you need to note: No pictures, as you lose sense of depth; Work harder. If you REALLY want to draw better, nothing like drawing all day long, perspective is good, with textures even better. Also, if you feel like your line control is shit, just refer to the first exercise. Nothing better than to draw to increase control, especially when you can't see what you're drawing, so pay attention to it, follow the lines, the curves and the spikes, not the nose or the mouth, think in lines. Unfortunately there's no better cheat to drawing better than to keep drawing with methods, and the real one is the best because it surrounds you.
    Extra exercise I forgot: Negative Drawings - Search it, easy to understand, easy to do, and it helps with thinking in objects.

      Whoa there Fisher. I think you need to take a step back and reevaluate your life. Randomly antagonising and attacking people over the internet where you have anonymity? Not only is it just sad but cowardly too. Why try and deliberately hurt someone else? What is wrong with you? Someone likes something you don't (even though you've probably never even watched it and given in to the "anime is trash" elitist mindset of people filled with bitterness at the world), what's the big deal? Why does that bother you? It shouldn't.

    Ive always liked drawing but I just recently(around a year ago) decided to brush up on my skills and actually improve to a point of which I am proud of. I haven't yet gotten there but I feel very accomplished in what I have achieved in that year so I wanted to provide some tips that have helped me that may help you! I'm not by any means saying you have to do this to become better but this is just what has worked for me! I wanted to be of some assistance after seeing the negativity in the comments.
    I have been binging art videos and honestly what seems to help me the most is references-whether that be a real life reference or somebody else's art that you admire, every little bit helps. I now bring like three sketchbooks with me to school and just draw things around me(my art style at the moment is exclusively bodies and faces). I find that this tends to help a great deal. Honestly I find myself drawing every little thing that peaks my interest.(so mostly frames from animes I watch haha)
    Another thing that has helped immensely is guidelines. I always thought that people were exaggerating when they said that guidelines are essential but to my surprise, they really weren't. At the moment I am working on body proportions and breaking down the body parts into shapes has been the easiest starting point for me. From there, build up the shapes and add muscle and bam, you have a solid base!
    I can't provide many tips at the moment because its only been a while but I hope this helped you in some way! I don't want anybody to be discouraged by their art because even if you don't like it, you can use it as a stepping stone for your next piece-figure out what you did wrong and redo it differently. I am in no position to tell you what to do so if anything, just have fun with it! Luckily I am young(15) and have a long way to come so I think that my work is pretty good for someone who has only just really picked art up a while ago! Remember guys, practice makes perfect so if all else fails just practice until it is satisfactory!

    Hello :3 I found this video in July and it inspired me to change my way of practicing and I have to say it was the best advice I could receive. I improved considerably. It also helped me to get more confident in my drawings. It was difficult at first, but once I started to understand everything became so much easier. I watch this video sometimes again, because it's so motivating and inspiring. Thank you so much for sharing this video. It is still so helpful to me!!

      Read some books, Successful drawing by Andrew Loomis is a good start and other Andrew Loomis books are good too and when you start reading them you will know what to do or read next. Also check out Steve Huston's books and his videos on UA-cam they are amazing, find other drawing channels follow the artists you like etc.
      Basically you just have to gather all the information you can get on UA-cam and from books, and work twice as hard than somebody who goes to Art School. Books will tell you how you should go about learning drawing, I use UA-cam videos just as reference I don't depend on them.
      Don't work hard work smart, and overcome every obstacle one by one.

    • @pyrofxk

      dude, when I had that problem, I learned and redrew basic anatomy,
      just complete the drawing, and then redo it, but dont make the drawing so complicated that it takes too long to redraw
      think of it like shooting a target, first you will naturally over shoot, but with enough time+repitition (5-10min a day for a few week or 2)
      and L+R dont need to be exactly the same, like if you zoomed into a portrait and cut the eyes out and flipped one side over the other, it would probably not match exactly. this was quite revolutionairy for me lol

      Q1. Circle
      Drawing a good looking circle takes times, try taking baby steps.
      1. A circle is actually 2 semi-circle combined.
      Start by drawing 1 semi circle and then joined it with another 1.
      2. Having trouble with semi circle?
      Then draw a quarter of a circle and draw 4 of those to make a circle.
      IMPORTANTLY, draw confidently.
      Meaning, take as little number of strokes as possible to draw, 1 long curve.
      After a circle, then draw a basketball.
      A basketball have lines on it.
      This will give your face a more 3D look.
      Q2. Left and right side
      This also takes time. A ruler would help.
      After practicing with a ruler, try it without a ruler.

    Listen guys, anyone new to drawing, don't get discouraged by seeing speed drawings. A lot of artists use it in thier videos to make it look like they effortlessly draw, that page may have took him 1 min to make in the video, but remember these pieces that are sped up usually take them hours. Artists take a lot of time and effort to make pieces, and you may be like duh. I know this. But next time you say "oh they make it look so effortless." They actually putting a lot more then you know! keep drawing new artists. Do not get discouraged from watching things like this. And you'll soon know exactly what I mean as an artist! :)

    I'm actually really upset that I've been drawing for years but I can't draw. Sure I might be able to create art. But I can't draw.

    The thing that helped me get better is to first draw lines and circles that you draw before you start the actual drawing (I dunno the name but those help measure the size of the drawing), before I started doing that, my drawings were kinda stupid because there was always that one mistake I couldn't fix that was tht one part of the body would be slightly smaller or larger compared to the rest. I kid you not how much this small change has helped me, And to the people just starting, find a drawing style that makes you happy instead of always copying others, All I came to say
