    Enjoyed your video because I wanted to be an architect but ended up being a draftsman in the spacerace in the 60s and 70s and finally working on a project where I got my name on Mars. So I too was in the school of everything square and parallel. After watching Ian’s TH-cam videos, I am loosening up a bit myself. Thanks

  • @toshabeans
    @toshabeans 10 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Another nice thing about using complementary colors, if you do want to tone the hue down a bit they can be mixed together, maybe for the colors further in the distance. For what it's worth, i preferred how yours turned out 😊 Using the darkest pen and the most detail in the foreground really gives the scene depth of field and added perspective

    It is good that you are able to set your ego aside and are willing to learn. However, also try to stay truth to yourself. It seems to me that you are throwing away the baby with the bathwater if you try to follow Ian’s way. He has his own talents and qualities, but you have yours. Ian could never draw from your vision and experience as an architect, for example. Try to develop from within instead of from the outside. Everyone is unique. Follow your own path and try to find your own unique expression.

    Hi Larry. Jim from Madrid, Spain (a fellow artist and a New Yorker expat living abroad). Nice sketch. Damn I miss the US... The retouch done back at home and including the darks and shadows made it pop more. You can see your architect's mind at work! 😁✌ It is not easy to achieve the "fish eye" and/or skewed effect on buildings... But, it's a very cool technique to master 'cause it gives a lot of personality to the sketch (I'm still learning too!). Great sketch and cheers from Sunny Spain! 😁👍😎✌

    @garysandel6549 ปีที่แล้ว

    I am a former drafter, so I clue onto details that messes the whole thing up. I wish I could figure out how to post a picture here, as my version (made while your video was rolling, so 5 minutes including color) is against the grain of everything I have been trained as....but hell, its messy, but I can see my way to a looser way of interpretation that is way more fun. i get stressed out on all the details having to be right (and they never ever will be)....so Ian's technique is somewhat liberating.

    • @UrbanSketchPad-cx1ep
      @UrbanSketchPad-cx1ep ปีที่แล้ว

      I know what you mean about the drafter's mentality of being detail focus. I have had that issue too. What I find that is helpful is to draw only the outline of the overall main scene. Then, fill in the details layer by layer. To a point, you will want to stop before over-working the composition. I would love to see your 5 minute sketch. Feel free to email it to urbansketchpad@gmail.com.
