Ahh I' haven't scene a Mark Crilley video in such a long time. I've missed them to be honest. They're always so fun and enjoyable. And Mark Crilley is what really started getting me back into art and drawing.
I remember watching your channel when i was 12-13 years old. It was because of your videos i started to draw more seriously. I would love following along with all the steps and would continuously pause the videos just to keep up. I'm now currently 22, in art school and trying to pursue art as a career. Your channel has made such an impact on my life and on me as an artist.
It seems like every video I see people talking about how they haven't seen a Mark Crilley video in a long time and how they miss it. I'm glad, but I hope you stick around and share the videos with friends. Crilley deserves more regulars.
This is so true, he is such a talented artist🤩🤩🤩 And I gotta say I’m one of those ppl who will comment “oh yay another video finally! Pls upload when u can” but it’s not a bad thing
I would say that I've watched your videos when I was either a teen or a pre teen you were one of my sparks towards my art journey I've been filled with lots of sketch books and now I'm going to college studying in 2d animation mark crilley I love you and wanted to say thank you for your Dedication to your videos
Pro tip Mark : in order to freely rotate a drawing without the hassle of tape removal, but still getting the benefits of having it taped down, use a clipboard, just make sure you find one with a small clip so it’s easier to reach all parts of the drawing ✍️
It's been said before, but the angular lines give me strong Tetsuya Nomura vibes. A lot of his characters across both Final Fantasy and Kingdom Hearts use super pointy shapes and pointy hair. Kinda neat that you mentioned curved lines being very Disney-esque, because it makes for an interesting contrast.
Yeah I grew up playing and watching Kingdom Hearts and it was the only anime looking thing I was allowed to watch for a long time. That’s why the characters with spiky styled hair stick out so much, in Disney everything is much more cartoonish and curved Also SoraXKairi Forever🤩🥰😭
Man, I haven't been here in awhile, but I'm glad I checked it out. Ill have to make this a regular stop again. I can't say I've drawn anything substantial in the last couple years honestly, and honestly, Mark, you've just inspired me to experiment with my art again. Thank you.
I feel this. Used to draw a lot through highschool, but I just fell off it. Idk, just don't enjoy it like I used to. But it's nice to see Mark Crilley still makes videos.
It’s cool to see a video early! I’m a gamer so the one with very straight lines reminds me of old polygon sprites and models! So the “cool” feeling to me comes from it reminding me of video games. This character also reminds me of Aerith from Final Fantasy 7 It is interesting to see them side by side! Mentioning the angular one possibly being a robot made me think if Megaman ha ha
GREAT VIDEO! if you look closely there are many mangas or artists that use one of this styles only! One of the best excempales is dragon ball i think. The older part of the story had mostly or almost only round lines and cute styles and the newer ones got the hard and straight lines and more adult style to it. Even if you draw the same stuff you really can give it another look with this
How do you change faces between characters? Every time I draw a face it always ends up looking like a repeat of the last one. I don't know why I can't get out of this pit of drawing the same face again and again, any tips?
It's a thing more artists struggle with. It's called same face syndrome (not kidding!) if you search with those words you should find more people that can help you
Eyelash styles/eyeshapes, nose shapes, and eyebrow shapes are my go-to things to change! If you work in a style with visible lips, they can also vary wildly in shape. Find some photos of people and practice these features by themselves. Just draw a bunch of eyes or noses or lips. If you own a version of The Sims it can be super fun to play around with face sliders to see how these individual parts can change! I have my usual face style that I use to get proportions right but then I go back in and make a point to find unique facial features, such as one person having a round nose and one a pointed nose. It really helps to practice drawing features on their own to see how they really work in different shapes.
For girls I try to give them a shorter, thinner jawline and slightly bigger eyes. For guys I give them a generally wider jawline and slightly smaller eyes (can change depending on character traits) Eyelash thickness/shape can be changed, shape of the eyes/pupils/irises, expressions, and facial features can change everything. For example I have two characters that are brothers who resemble each other very much, but there are significant differences. One has piercing blue eyes and straight spiky red hair and a scar on his cheek, while the other brother has warm brown eyes and curly red hair. Subtle changes make a big difference
The farthest eye should only get thinner with the faces rotation, not shorter. You can play with perspective by just a simple straight on shouldnt have the far eye so much smaller
Hmm... there's a very slight difference in angle of the mouths, and I suspect it's making a disproportionately large difference in my impressions of the two. Interesting.
This really got me thinking how I should approach making lines in my art and how they affect the piece. Thank you! This is my first vid I see from this channel and decided to check it out because some youtubers recommended it to me. Aand... you have a new subscriber I guess.
The straight line eyes are definitely making her look older than the curved eyes. The different hairs aren't really different enough, perhaps the straight line hair is more of a late teens-young adult style, while curved could be young or mature. The mouth and nose aren't straight or curved enough to tell a difference, you could swap them they are so similar.
How to go to heaven when you die. (The Gospel). (John 3:16) For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son (Jesus), that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. (Ephesians 2:8-9) For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith (In Jesus as your savior)-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-not by works, so that no one can boast. (Romans 4:5) However, to the one who does not work but trusts God (Jesus) who justifies the ungodly, their faith is credited as righteousness. Trust in Jesus as your savior and you will be go heaven when you die. I pray that you trust in him and tell your family and friends as well.

The "Bob Ross" of Manga! Great demonstration as always

Hey Mark, Thanks for all you do.😃
I’ve missed your videos Mark, please upload when you can, it’s a real joy🤗🤩🫠

Great tip. I work on a factory and was able to make my own boards!
I have two. But I want to make more 🤣

Your videos are always welcoming. The sense of familiarity brings me joy. Thank you!
Watching your new videos after a couple of years feels like eating comfort food. I hope you're doing well! You are a major inspiration for me
I'm so glad you still upload-- you completely built my childhood
Omg, I'm so glad you're still posted. I first discovered you in middle school. Now I'm in college 🥹
Glad youre still making videos. Bought both series and theyre great. watched you before them. You helped get me started and now I'm working on my own.

Straight lines for me added a sense of maturity vs more youthful
Best artist for sure
The single stroke line....a thing us digital artists cntrl z for a half hour to get XD

To me the rectangular blushies seem like some sort of warpaint. 😄
i started watchimg ur channel when i was 11 now i'm 20 and trying to become a professional mangaka!
Thank you

@@kittykitteh3747 Thanks, I might finally be able to draw different faces now
@@lanzelet7386 Thank you, this really helps

I dig cubism-inspired styles
So helpful!!
Rectangular blushes vs. round blushies
Which one is the victor?
Also where can I find Mark’s book ‘My Last Summer with Cass’?
Entertaining and educational, thank you. Now back to the soccer. 😁⚽
The straight line one will stand out even more if you vary the thickness of the lines.
The farthest eye should only get thinner with the faces rotation, not shorter. You can play with perspective by just a simple straight on shouldnt have the far eye so much smaller
The finished drawing gives me the feeling of 'a girl and her robot clone'
Who has been watching mark crilley for years
Hi, can you make a tutorial of how to draw lap pillow pose? 🙏
Hmm... there's a very slight difference in angle of the mouths, and I suspect it's making a disproportionately large difference in my impressions of the two. Interesting.
Looks like war paint when the blushies go angular.. lol
Hey Mark can you do a video on how to do speech bubbles. I can't get mine to look right
Sir🙏
so, where is the anime adaptation in your vision of the future?
Nice
MARK!!! I think your camera needs to be looked at. From 12:35-12:38 the video gets very dark. Thought this should be brought to your attention.
I also just realized this video is old lol sorry Mark, hope you're doing well
Cool. The first drawing was excellent until you did the second. I love the difference. The second one definitely pops more.
Can't say rectangular blushies are it😆
Rectangular blushies look like upside down eyebrows...

This really got me thinking how I should approach making lines in my art and how they affect the piece. Thank you! This is my first vid I see from this channel and decided to check it out because some youtubers recommended it to me. Aand... you have a new subscriber I guess.
The 2nd one reminds me of final fantasy ps1 graphics
It does look a bit like Aerith.
Man you are awesome but you need a better lighting and camera
The straighter hair makes her feel older than the one on the left for some reason...
It’s not mine And I even feel
A bot recommended me your channel
The straight line eyes are definitely making her look older than the curved eyes. The different hairs aren't really different enough, perhaps the straight line hair is more of a late teens-young adult style, while curved could be young or mature.
