I just started mimicking styles and grew into my own from the styles I mimicked. I also learned stuff about anatomy via mimicking
that is great. Congrats.
Same! It’s like my art style is made up of all my fav artist art styles! With a bit of my own touch to it!
@@palabalaba419 the advice from the vid does go with a lesson from silent manga audition. Which is the same from this vid
Yeah it's what some call "steal like an artist" (i forgot the origin). it's annoying how some non-artists just call it stealing or tracing, like bro no 💀. also funny story i mimic so much my art style is non existent, it's a cycle of every time i think i found it, i see cool art and boom back to ✨experimenting✨
I started out tracing then tracing different characters part on to other characters. After a while I started drawing on my own then I started developing a style🔥.
Honestly personally for me, this sounds way more simple than any other I’ve heard. Tysm this is so helpful it deserves more views!! You earned a new sub btw!
Thanks men, means a lot
This was my exact thought at the end of the video. Also extremely condensed. Thanks for the video
But my job is in the summer bro- why you firin' meee....?! 😭🤧
My art style is random
Not really, just draw a bunch.
remember: you change over the years
your style will also change
and its not fine, its awesome
Haha great
I keep changing my art style everyday
Trying to find my style is so stressful lol. This makes it a little bit easier. Thanks for the tip!
Yes it is really hard to find your style… happy to help
Just try to find a process you enjoy, forcing yourself to "find" or settle on a style is stressful for any creatives. Too restricting.
@@YukyDoodle I was randomly drawing and suddenly found my art style and it's been a year I haven't changed it
Same, I wanna have an art style that is only so people know it's by me, for example like Haminations, his art style when you see it you'd know it's his...unless you never heard of him but ya know what I mean.
As I like to say, a style is a way to express things, not just a graphic style, but the way you share your thoughts visually through drawings.
interesting 🤔
Tracing really helped me find my art style! As long as you don't claim it as your own, it works so well!
Very good, yes I agree
That's true! Took me some time to get over the stigma, but in reality as long as you practice in private and don't claim the art as your own or publish it as your own work then there is no problem and really it is extremely helpful as training wheels to get your hand used to making the right strokes and shapes
To me, “Art style” is just a bonus that comes from really being good at fundamentals that you can execute them in distinctively (“stylized”)
Solid fundamentals, idea and expression should be prioritized.
Yes
THANK YOU I FEEL SO GREAT ABOUT MYSELF NOW
haha that is awesome
I started drawing a bit before the 2020 pandemic. And I’ve barely developed my own style recently. It’s been a wonderful journey of learning and partaking in art project on the the TH-cam. Much love to all the rookie artists out there who are just starting out. Good luck my guys and girls
That is awesome!
oh that's me there :D thank you so much it turned out great! love your shapes
Hey there Magdalina! Yeah, I watched your class in Domestika and I learned a ton with it. Since then I'm a fan :D
Seriously, I did this too and it really works!
I was doing a character design for my art coursework, and I'm in this step where I'm experimenting with my artist of inspiration's artstyle
I found mine! And I love it
That is great, very happy for you
Thank god i have found this. Most of the videos i have seen about finding your art style is some sorta like psychic ‘it’s in your heart’ thing.
well hope you liked this one
This was the best advice I ever heard. Seriously for years I made no progress with the drawing part of my manga and having my own style (although this can be attributed to my lack of practice). I used this method and in a single year I have made so much progression
Glad I could help!
just draw what you can, over time you’ll come across stuff you like and it’ll teach you, that’s what worked for me
Interesting, thank you for sharing
Lol I had to figure out my art style by taking a FNAF character I really liked and would draw often (Daycare attendants), and get a sheet of paper and draw the body how I wanted.
It was ugly, especially the neck and waist frills. It was too geometric, and the face structure was hard to look at.
Nowadays, I keep my old art, and my current art style (that improved thankfully), and think, “I was a HORRIBLE artist back in September! Glad I improved!”
I have old art of mine on my walls and I will never take it down for the life of me.
Thank you for sharing
This vid right here is the best example of the sentence “steal like an artist”. It couldn’t be best explained.
I guess
studying other artists and learning the basics, then drawing the stuff you actually want to draw= your very own art style
👍👍
Honestly I find something that's the easiest way for me to draw and the easiest way for me to convey what I'm trying to draw
Okey, that is cool.
I'm not really an art guy, but i like to draw, so my art style is just me learning how to draw what i like in a way that feels right to me
That is cool
I think it’s pretty neat that you can teach something that comes almost natural to you, when I try to understand what I am doing while drawing I can’t quite put it into words, I just do stuff that I think looks cool lol
haha nice
YESSS!! Mimic others styles and eras in history. Scott Christian Sava said it kind of similarly too. Best way to learn!!
That is great, yes. Thank you for sharing
This is literally exactly how I found my style, and how I’ve told others to as well, Pinterest is an artists best friend I swear!
Great, congrats
I did this gardually over time, adjusting and changing things as I went since just sitting and doing studies always made me hate the art style and made me feel like art was a chore. Doing this over time really helpled me! My advice is even of you think a detail is too small to really consider important (ex: the way they draw highlights) its really not. Every little detail counts!
awesome 👍 thank you for sharing 🙏
I feel like most people don't realize that the way you draw things is an art style it's just trying out new styles
I guess you could put it like that.
Pretty much the same advice given to me by every professional artist I've had a class under. In fact one even suggested that if you want to work with a particular company or studio getting your foot in the door meant you had to know how to draw free hand any character from their studio as a test to see not only how fast you are at drawing but how well you can come up with a concept to match their work.
thank you for sharing
I don't really look up to any artists at all so my art style feels very unique to me and thats what I like about my art.
Very happy for you
The funny thing is, that my artstyle IS being the "mimic"
I constantly take things from other people's artstyles, and proceed to combine them in different ways, or just try the artstyle with a little bit of seasoning.
This is called experimental artstyle, but I often call it rotating because it can reuse things from before, or sometimes I do something a few times and then forget hoe to do it.
👍 interesting ✨ thank you for sharing
God I LOVE how Junkil looks, resembling an Oni or just a brute in general, which really helps differentiate him from the other interpretations.
that is awesome 👍👍👍
@@LucasPeinador hey uh, I’m pretty sure I left this comment by accident. It was supposed to be for something else.
Your vid is still pretty good and the method worked, nonetheless!
you don't have to worry about it, keep drawing and you'll have it
👍
That's EXACTLY what I did growing up!
Great, happy to hear that
Gonna apply this for music
Great
I love this idea of drawing favourite food and combining art styles.
I already found my art style( I suppose), but this idea is gold
That's a great!
Thank you so much. I really needed this
Glad it was helpful!
As a kid I watched a lot of cartoons (still do tbh) and when I look at my artstyle and how it developed and the shows I used to watch ever since I was a little kid I can see where I got certain things from! I never did studies like this because mine evolved gradually over time! But I’m gonna try this as an exercise! It would be fun!
haha that is very cool and very relatable
I absolutely love The Venture Bros so that's what my style mainly mimics
That is great
I've been looking for this, thank you.
Glad I could help
In my opinion the best way to find your art style is to draw something, anything, however you feel like. You can do line art or you can skip it. You can shade it using blocked shapes or you can try to smooth the edges of the shadows. (etc.) You should take note of what was easiest for you and what results you like the most.
For me (I am not sure if I have found my art style yet) I liked when i used kind of random brush strokes and i used many to do the shading. I don't do line art, instead I make a rough sketch and use that as "line art". On layers below I fill in the general shapes and shade them. Then I lower the opacity of the sketch/line art layer.
Thank you for sharing
Most of the things I've learned was though a strategy called ✨mirroring✨ This is very helpful for some things, especially art styles.
Thanks for sharing!!
Another idea: You can also mix up artstyles to make your own unique one! I did that in discovering my best art style.
That's a great idea!
Honestly i wanna draw like you. Ofc i wanna change things like the coloring. Sometimes the way i draw things. But honestly i wanna draw like you
haha tnx, you just have to practice
@@LucasPeinadorive found a new style i like. But you still inspire me ☺️
I just when threw 15 years of suffering and practising until one day I was doodling and was like ‘oh wait this is kinda good’ and didn't stop :)
That is great, congrats
Also just playing around with different things. I've noticed I have different styles depending on what I'm using to draw with.
That is cool, as long as it makes you happy
Great advice! To me personally, you gotta set what do you intend to do with your arts first, do you have visual stories or messages you'd like to share with your arts? Do you have certain vibe you'd like to convey? Dark, happy, whimsical? Then explore what styles and skillset you need in order to deliver what your visions are. This is a way to keep yourself motivated. It gives you a sense of purpose. It gives you a goal to achieve and subdue your sense of anxiety and aimlessness. And you do this so you don't waste your time learning the skills that won't support your intended style.
You don't need to learn complicated perspective if you're aiming for something like sponge bob for example, you need that if you want to become a superhero artist. Unless you have broad spectrum of interests, from cartoon to photorealism, then you gotta learn more skills, but your style will develop itself as you go on this exploratory journey.
If I'm into fairies or mythical stories, maybe I need to look for other artists that have similar style I'm aiming for, Claire Wendling for her organic lines, Arthur Rachkam for his inkwork, maybe Manuel Arenas for his aesthetics and combine their styles into my own. I'll go for a whole different direction if I want to create something comedic like spongebob. I can't stress enough how important what your intentions are.
But then again, it all depends on what kind of artist you want to be. Style works perfectly if you're an independent artist. But if you're working with animation studios like disney for example, you got to be able to adapt your style with the current project you're in, right? You gotta toss your personal style out the window, unless you're told to go with your style then others have to toss theirs and follow yours.
Thank you and tnx for sharing
It took me a long time to realize that I had an art style because what I liked was different cartoon styles, but I always defaulted back to a more realistic style when sketching characters. For some time I thought it was just because my art style was boring, but since realizing my style is more realistic it's gotten easier to draw the things I've wanted to.
Very happy for you
I just find my art style out of the blue. Somehow
that's great 👍 congrats
my favorite artist is oda and i bet every one piece fan agress with me
that is cool
Great advice. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Idk I just watched many different art tutorials on how to draw nose,lip, etc and took the ones I like and smashed them together in my brain and bam that's what I call
✨mY sTyLe✨🤩
Hahaha very real
@@LucasPeinador yep👌
This is actually very helpful! Tysm! 😭💕
👍👍 happy to hear that
But I like several contradictory styles. Like, i love bright and colorful images with clean lines and shiny highlights, but I also like that emo art style with the scratchy lines and minimalist color palletes
thank you for sharing
Im a traditional artist so my art style is how my pencil and hand wants to move that day
you can do this in traditional also, you just have to be a bit more patient
I'll find my style soon tysm ! You earned a new sub!
That is great, tnx
@@LucasPeinador np!
I DO THIS AND I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS LIKE A TIP NOR LIKE THAT so I kinda stopped doing that BUTTTT THANKKKK U SMMMM IM NOW GPNNA CONTINUE THAT
Great, happy for you. Hope it works
Awesome job. Wonderful.
Thank you very much!
I wished I knew this sooner, when I started I struggle a lot, at first I just kinda copy different artists style, and it's just not good enough for me, and I started to try to draw what I want, seems like I picked up some styles and combine them into mine
Finding your art style can be very hard, so don't worry... But I am very happy if now you found it and you like it.
My artstyle changes so fast
that's okey 👍 there is nothing wrong with that
Thank you friendo!
No problem
Taste is exactly for every skills fits.
👍👍
I only have one favorite artist, Mr.Hirohiko Araki, so I just copied his art style for a few months and I gradually changed parts to fit me better without even realizing
That is great, congrats
What I am doing is .. studying the artstyle I like and then do it from memory or simple reference. It comes off differently every time though. Guess my style isn't stable yet .
just keep practising and you will get there
I started trying to perfect the rubberhose art style and it started turning into it’s own thing…so that’s me
that awesome 👍🔥👍🔥
I just kinda… draw what’s easy… that seems to work.
haha nice 👍
Thank you so much
You're most welcome
"i like that theres looks good"
"Im never guna get anywhere"
haha
I found mine by messing with what I did and did like in anatomy. I figured out I liked to round things out and make them simpler. I liked to draw things as fluffy and just really soft and anime esque in general. But don’t let that fool you. It makes everything so much better when I show my friends what i actually do, which is draw scenes with a lot of disturbing imagery. Yes i do draw nice things, but I enjoy screwing things up and making things feel just a little wrong
Thank you for sharing
*me having different artstyles based on my mood* 😍
haha I understand 😅
I love tbhk art style it’s just so hard for me to draw
I understand, just keep practising
You don't find your art style. It finds you.
okey
This is excellent
thank you very much, hope it helps
A link in a pinned comment or the description would be a great addition!
But I have a link that Leeds to all of my thing, the first thing in the description
Bruh I legit thought that drawing was an insect person until the color reveal-
haha, that is cool
THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I DID YEAAAH!!! best tip fr
haha happy to hear that
My arts style is drawing mangga and anime honestly that's how I relax finishing a one episode on one day is so relaxing I was happy too because you know it's hard to draw an chapter of magga in a day
That's cool
I'll admit, I thought this was going to be just another silly thing that makes it way too complicated and inaccessible to everyone, but you really did break it down pretty well. When I really think on it, I started when I was very young. But I traced when I got a little older and moved from crayon scribbles. I traced Pokemon and DnD monster manuals. And then I went from tracing to looking at an image while copying it. I did Pokemon drawings for the kids in school. Art is how I protected myself from being bullied, and how I made friends with just about everyone. I'd draw them their ideas, I'd study the art of the animators I liked.
Then I entered highschool art class, and learned anatomy, techniques, exercises, perspective, et cetera.
And slowly, over time, it just sort of happened. One day I was drawing and people in my small circle were saying "oh, that's definitely a Mermaid drawing!!" And "your style is awesome!"
And then I found animation. And I've been in a slump for a year and a half but I'm slowly coming out of it. But suddenly I had just found everything I love about creating wrapped up in one genre and was making stupid animations that we're getting a lot of views. Nowadays, I don't. I had to start from the basics again because of personal things....but the point of all this rambling is, just do what you love. Sometimes you'll hate your art, sometimes you'll think you're the worst artist on planet earth, but never ever give up. Draw what you love, get really good at it, and then push yourself outside of your comfort zone even more. Push the boundaries, and find what you love about art over and over.
Don't worry too much about developing your style though, it will come, and this video is a good breakdown on where to start. trace, practice, copy, study. Tracing isn't stealing art unless you claim it's yours. It's a good way to establish muscle memory.
Thank you very much for your comment and thank you for sharing
So mine is doodle and monster sketch vibe
awesome 👍
ive seen that art style comes from problem solving. first people will try to draw what they like, and it will be hard, but eventually you figure out the easiest way to complete art for your own mind. the tricks you teach yourself will show in your art. and if you do professional art work for a studio, you would then correct your art to look closer to the designs your employer gives to you
Thank you for sharing
My digital artstyle: Watercolor with realistic body proportions and goofy faces.
haha that's cool
@@LucasPeinador Tank you
My character has no arms, has a robe instead of legs, a hat, and is all black.
I feel proud of thy art I created.
haha interesting 🤔 well that's nice, you should be proud of yourself
@@LucasPeinador
I wanted my art style to be simple, yet unique. It's still a work in progress of course.
Yes, but the bad thing Is, often the things we like about it is parts the we aren’t good at.
what? 🤔
Me: Likes almost every kind of art style
haha that is cool, makes is easier
@@LucasPeinadorNot really. My reason for developing an art style was so I didn't get stuck on someone elses. If I binge watch a show, for example, I struggle to draw anything but that shows style (even when I am not good at it). So having a personal art style I can reference helps.
I can't do realistic, I can't wrap my head around complex shading so at least I know what I'm not doing. Originally I wanted to do a semi realistic version. Where I take stuff from real life and cartoon it.
It took me like a year to find my style so yh this is helpful
Congrats, thank you
Interesting, I need to try this sometimes
Yes, hope it is useful
I actually have multiple art styles it’s just better that way for me 👍
that is great 👍 if that works for you - it is the only thing that matters
Akira Himekawa (art duo that do the "Legend of Zelda" mangas (So far, I love their take on "Twilight Princess".) and Ayami Kojima (artist of the Castlevania video games) have influenced my art style deeply. For me, I love how Himekawa does eyes, and for Kojima, it's the hair and skin. For clothes, it's both.
That is cool
if only i could do this, bc i feel scummy mimicking artstyles after i got into drama with someone (who didnt use the artstyle may i add)
👍👍
You don't look for an art style an art style find you
interesting 🤔 thank you for sharing 👍
After years of searching and comparing and trying to mash different styles with my own I decided I literally just want to learn the 2000s moe art style
interesting 🤔
I'm not even a visual artist but I gotta say some of my favorite artists are Vincent van goth and Q hayashida
nice, thank you for sharing
Got this rec after watching you on a samdoesart vid😂❤️
haha that is cool, which one?
even better way is to learn all fundamentals and try to stylize them urself
of course
This is very helpful tysm
Glad it helped!
I love: jaden Animations, odd ones out, somthing else yt, dingo doodles..
Wait-
..Neytirix?
...
REALISTICK CARTOON/ANIME STYLE IT ISSS
haha that is cool
My favorite artists: horror artists
My style: shojo
haha
If you're still learning drawing fundamentals it makes more sense to focus on that instead of style. Otherwise it's like a kindergartner trying to achieve a certain handwriting style when they're still learning how to write
Yes I agree, but this can be just for fun
i’ve done this before and each sketch i do is like someone else made it, and i kind of like the randomness that i make
haha that is interesting
my art srtyle is whatever that looks good me
haha that's cool
Hmm thanks
Sure thing
Hirohiko araki style is already a mix 😭
haha yeah
What if my likings are super different from eachother like what if I like someone's art because they're lines are super dynamic and the other's art are super soft? Or someone's artstyle mainly focuses on very exaderated hands, feet, etc and the other artist has made everything practically the same size? What if someone had a very detailed artstyle and the other didn't?
You can just choose what you like from each artist and include just that into you art style. Mix and match and you will get some very interesting results
Cool 🤠
😀
Thank you
