I've wanted something like this for a very long time. When you do a search for TH-cam videos on line weight you get almost nothing and only a few of what you do get are very good.
Promoting such a normie anime. It's not nearly as well produced as all the normies think. Go look at something produced during "and golden age of anime" (late 80s early 90s)
@@someuser4166 lmao okay bud. Does it make you feel better acting like you're better than everyone else? The reason I specifically asked Demon Slayer and not an 80s or 90s anime is because its art style has a particular emphasis on line weight AND it happens to have popularity and relevance right now. If you don't care for that, good for you. I'm not pandering to snobs.
I study architecture and I wonder why none of our teachers actually pointed this out. Its such a good technique to highlight shapes in your concept or just make plans easier to read
This channel is amazing at simplifying hard to understand concepts that others tend to struggle understanding. Thank you so much for all your work! You’ve been helping me and many others with their art journey! Keep it up!!
Years later, I still frequent this track!The intensity and melody is fantastic. I can admire the original for its triumphant nature in that the dragons are recognizing you as a symbol, but this just sounds sooo much better even with the context. Nothing jubilant here, just a pair of dragons with powers considered distrastous to the planet, yet are humble enough to maintain peace.
@@sael5084 I find if I'm stuck to have the mind set of problem solving. I'll try and analyse what the problem is and try different things to fix it. TH-cam/internet is a great tool to workshop ideas until you get it working for you. Keep at it. 💪 🔥
@@sael5084 Maybe you're expecting too much from yourself. Classic paintings from the masters used to take MONTH to YEARS. Some even produced only a few paintings in their lifetime. No one is gonna remember how long it took you to do anything so go easy on yourself. Plan for results not the fastest path.
I was wondering about this topic, and gladly this video popped out in my feed, it's really informative and it gave me technical reasons of why this lineart style even exists in the first place, I thought it was just some cool thing artist do to be quirky. Thanks a bunch!!
Thank you so much for this video! I've tried to find out why specific artists use which ones for what reason for years but never really found a clear answer, just contradicting fragments of info. That made it harder for me to find out how to do it "right" in my own artwork. Finally getting that explanation about the different techniques and especially when to use which was exactly the info I needed!
This was really helpful, thanks! I’ve been so focused on having varying line widths and avoiding having a “dead line”, that I haven’t been mindful of incorporating thinner lines for the background. It’s something you can easily pull off with a hunt 102 dip pen. Cheers!
Heavy outline used to be used for perspective technical drawings. Such as exploded drawings in a workshop manual. The lines should taper as they go to the background.
after 6 months i finally found the reason my lineart sucks. i've been drawing for 6 years. i know colour theory and stuff but at times i would make lineless art just to purposefully avoid doing the lineart but not anymore. tysm
I love line work, as I'm most familiar with it in making art. But when I draw digitally, I always feel like my lines are way too thick all over, despite me shrinking the pen size so much! I am now having to shrink down to a value less than 1 on a pretty big canvas and that just seems ridiculous to me 😅
@@pinkajou656 I tend to dislike any sort of texture in my brush I use, but I can certainly try. I use Clip Studio Paint and my linework is always on a vector layer, just because I'm trying to make a webcomic where I draw the pages in print format first, then go back and resize/rearrange panels into a scrolling format. Literally have been working on it for a year now and have hardly anything to show for it, but I'm not the most disciplined at working every day, as I also stream three times a week and work full time 😅
I used to draw like this, and still somewhat do... I found with realism sketches, it's great to use for important lines that are subtle and easy to lose.... Like elbow creases, direct lighting or shadow points, the curve of a car or an underboob..... It's used slightly differently than in comics, but ALOT the same
Its very important to understand the role of lines and shapes. A great Vid, thanks much. Btw, could anyone suggest an artist pen, wich can make thinner and weighty lines in one stroke? Do they use special brush tips with ink?
That more than anything has been my most insurmountable barrier as an artist-my teachers would tell me my line weight was lacking without telling me what specifically I needed to do to improve. In other words, where to put the thick lines and where to make them thinner.
Great but what about the thick line that sometimes separates shadow from a bright area, on the same object, and it is not because of reflected light etc...
There's, unfortunately, not a one-size-fits-all path because of all of the different styles that fall under "drawing". I recommend doing figure drawing and anatomy study early before trying to tackle complex rendering so that you're not spending your time trying to properly render bad forms that will never look right.
There’s so much to line weight and we cover even more in the premium course. Continue learning at proko.com/drawing
can i ask a question how to find your style ??

No doubt ❤
Art really is a career
How do you know for sure? Any evidence please?
My art teacher loved showing his videos
Use of line weight on the anime Demon Slayer is super interesting. I'd love to see a breakdown on how it's used there
I can try if you want

Just in time, some hours ago I was searching about the Lineart and how to make it better.

Awesome lesson as always Proko
If only I could apply then correctly 😢

Line weight, sharp lines and bubble shading is literally my entire artstyle.

I Agree, the way he teaches is so clear
Can you please make a video on drawing clothing/ folds and drapery? Or if anyone has any good resources in the comments what would be great! Thanks
I've been doing this unconsciously and knowing what exactly to do them helps me with my composition more
Self learning here noobie and this channel is big help for me🙏🙏🙏
Cool! People need to point this out because it's important but often being underestimated of how powerful it is.
This was so helpful. I hear a lot about line wait but have never had anyone explain it much. So this was a lot of help. Thank you
Verg useful, especially for comics and manga.
This is so helpful, I can never figure out where my lines should be heavy or light.

AYYYY DUDE, THAT IS AMAZING!!
loved the conclusion
On the topic of depth, "Nothing carries importance because everything is the same" was a pretty deep line...
Thanks heaps! This video answers so many questions that I could never put into words.

Maybe using a different kind of pen or brush would help? I find there’s a big difference with how they each feel even with the same numbered width.

Something you might want to include is the way line weight is commonly used on weight bearing areas.
thank you for this video! really helpful ❤
Thanks
very helpful thank you all :)
Been asking myself for years of drawing that should you start draw a body to look like a box or a sphere. hope you answer my question.

Tombow Fudenosuke brush pen!! Or dip pens if you really want to challenge yourself.
I like your drawing ❤️🔥❤️🔥
Man, we really will never stop learning from them huh
Love this guy ❤️❤️❤️
Exceptional !
So lineweight is basioally adding natural occlusion as part of the line drawing process?
Great proko 😅
