This is an amazing take on drawing and I cannot express how grateful I am for finding your content! I aspire to create things that I'm proud of, as I haven't been able to do so even if others appreciate my work. You sir are a friendly reminder that we as humans can accomplish anything we put our minds to and I just want you to know you're awesome. ❤
This is something i wish they taught lesson like these when i was in "advanced drawing " class back in school. My experience in drawing class were somewhat not great they kept teaching repeating subject without going into new materials, worrying too much about dead lines rather than giving us time to process the information taugh to us, not having to teach us about color theory, not learning how to understand anatomy when we told the pose or posture where way off causing countless erasing , too much prasing on favotrite students, having to start your project all over again when it wasn't good enough, not being shown how to even hold the pencil in different ways and it wasn't helping me at all, hence why the school i went to is rather corrupted and overcrowded.( Sorry about my little rant here got carried away.) Anyhow, I've got to ask, can you also apply using this method when working on character design, backgrounds etc...? Does it also help bring your drawing into more realistic way than having a complete flat 2d look? I actaully do appreciate that you bring videos like these to help beginners and long time artist alike to find new ways to improve. Without videos like these, i think i've been lost in knowing how to improve my drawings. Thank you Dan.
I think you can! although you are restricted by the end goal of anatomy, using organic shapes makes it... well... organic. Try experimenting with what you like - after all, you wont know what works until you try it.
@theory816 I had to learn that the hard way after I graduated from high school (though I wasn't even proud of it, long story) still, it took me years to get to the point that I getting into a difficult road of becoming a better artist and having to do my homework about the materials I wanted to try out. I'll be honest here, I still got alot to learn and trying to get to some art school is one hell of a difficult thing to do, even when it isn't in your area (and its not simply to get into one as well). I still got some homework to learn how to do a comic, always wanted to try it but I have yet to get around to do so.
I was really struggling to wrap my brain around this concept, had to watch the video a couple times but I get it! Thank you so much this is not explained well anywhere else I've looked lol
I know that the minor axis always toward to the vanishing point in two points perspctive, what if we draw a cube in one point perspctive, and then draw a cylinder, so does the minor axis go to the vanishing point too?
"The minor axis always points to the vanishing point" : in my opinion, this in not true at all! But I'll admit that's a very widespread assumption & many videos and even (recommended) books on perspective say so. Maybe it's an ~ok approximation when the object is near the horizon? but generally speaking I don't think it's true. I'll be glad if someone were to have a proof of this, or thoughts on the matter, because it has always bothered me ! Aside from that, great vid', as always!
Your comment is a year old so I don't know if you still need the confirmation, but you're absolutely right. This misinformation has caused me much wasted time, and is even repeated in all caps in Scott Robertson's "How to Draw" book. That guy is a master at drawing, so I thought I was going crazy. It is in fact a wonderful rule of thumb that you can use to get a good looking ellipse provided that you are drawing near the center of vision, as you say. The only way to get a CORRECT ellipse is to draw a cube in perspective and then fit the ellipse inside of that. You'll see that the ellipse you get from this and the ellipse you would've drawn following this rule of thumb are different. The only book that I've EVER seen address this issue is David Chelsea's "Perspective for Comic Book Artists." He's an absolute beast with perspective. I can't recommend him enough.
I was wondering if you could draw me a picture of Bakugou from Boku no hero academia.. can he be wearing a black skull hat, black earrings, a black skull shirt, and grey ripped jeans...plus red shoes.... PLEEEEEASE...IF YOU DO...well I can't really offer anything...but I would be eternally grateful..thx
Ugh I’m so obsessed, every time you finish the drawing it looks like something out of the matrix to me.
Funny you mention the Matrix because the background music reminds me of it
This is great. I am slowly getting back into drawing after letting the skill rot for 30 years.
I struck gold, literal gold, thank you for this channel

Brilliantly explained and demonstrated - thank you for sharing

Awesome video, thanks mann!!
Thanks for another great video Dan the Man ✊✊ Helping us become better artist each week
Outstanding technical knowlege which is explained very nicely!
Timely video, thanks Dan.
amazing videos and content , benn following closely. thank you so much
Always learning from you man, great video thank you
New video ! Allways best quality ! Keep going , I love your viz !🔥🔥
woohooo thank god. i really needed this man
Yesssss, thank you so much!!!! 👍👍👍
I feel like a peasant bc of your accent, but I really appreciate every perspective lesson.
So helpful, thank you!
gahdayum you are a god at circles
Ah! Amazing!
I loved this so much, I feel like you could really reach me how do adopt art and become better at it
Love your videos!!!
YOO I litterally found your chanel right now and there's already a new video
Why no vanishing points for organic forms? We only need contour lines?
🤔 Very imformative and helpful, thanks!
Start anywhere, practice on everything. I got a free coffee today for drawing the waiteress.
great video ty for making this
Thanks for the vid
Nice
Wow, I thought it was impossible to draw perfect circles and ellipses by hand. Digital drawing removes the need to do it
I was really struggling to wrap my brain around this concept, had to watch the video a couple times but I get it! Thank you so much this is not explained well anywhere else I've looked lol
hmmm... we have the same mech pencil, hope it help me get better like you
Is that a kuru toga pencil I see you using?
I know that the minor axis always toward to the vanishing point in two points perspctive, what if we draw a cube in one point perspctive, and then draw a cylinder, so does the minor axis go to the vanishing point too?
How the hell do u draw so clean ellipses, teach me your ways
I’m struggling with drawing an hexagon thats in 3D
5:50 'As we progress with this series, we will be required to draw more organic forms..." makes one last video in the series lol
Damn, everything was going so well until the very end. Thank you. lol
i really wish i could get it but im really not
Where did you learn this information?
In some of his videos he mention's a a book called "Scot Robert son's how to draw" book
IM TYPING IN CAPS BECAUSE I WANT YOUR ATTENTION.
ALSO PLEASE PUBLISH AND ART BOOK! ON I BOOKS!!!
Slow it waaaaaaaay down.. this is what i need but i need it teached slow !
hehehehehe yeeee boi :D:D:D:D:D i
What accent is he speaking in? So cool
British, I guess.
@@fndTenorio obviously, but which one of the British accents 🤔
It's funny your result is so clean when you're actually chicken scratching n.n
Hey goirl
Make a book.
Good Video, why are you chicken scratching?
are you chicken scratching or is that on purpose?
thanks, can you speak with more enthusiasm tho, your drawing deserves it!
Please, PLEASE. DO THIS ON A NINTENDO 3DS. PLS
