Mistake 12: blaming yourself for not immediately understanding a complicated concept
Ooooh! :O
Yes! Good one
This is me... now I am learning to teach my self how to learn like a beginner.
"Watching art tutorials without practicing"
i feel so called out
I used to do that one! :p that's how I know!
@@ImadAwan Thanks
That's me with learning how to shade, I understand the theories of it but always afraid and mind goes blank when I planned to do it
ive been much better at practicing since ive gotten Procreate on my iPad, I can have it comfortably in my lap while I watch tutorials.
V3n0m u can actually get a jumpboost from others if you have understanding better than a beginner from watching tutorials then just do hands on
7:20
"Get a sketchbook and swear to God no one ever sees what's in that sketchbook"..
Ok😅😅😅
Not even kidding :D It works! Try that!
@@ImadAwan it does though, about a month ago I set my foot down and agreed to stop trying to perfect my drawings and I draw what I want. It’s such a relieve of stress
@@ImadAwan there would be a time when your friends are like "WHATS THAT" "LEMME LOOK I WANNA SEE"
I think mistake 11: Trying to draw anime without any fundamentals.
Yeah i know man :D
anime fans never understand when the art teacher tells them not to draw it lol it's not because your not allowed it's because you need to learn the real body first then GO BACK and make stylized bodys such as anime art teachers seem awful at explaining this
@@randomcallum I totally agree. At least learn basics then you can go nuts drawing Narutos.
did i done good drawing please tell me🙏
funny thing is, if you take a real close at professional anime/manga art, you'll see the creators know so much about perspectives and anatomy it puts beginner realists to shame. bones, muscles, minute details... everything's there when they need to be. it's all about conscious exaggeration and simplification for a clear purpose.
U really inspired me to restart the drawing just for myself
Not to show off
That's awesome!!! Have fun drawing!!!
*Comparing your failures to other artists' success is a big one.* We see amazing works by other artists and wish we could've made that but knowing our skill level just isn't there yet will hit you hard. Understand that every artist has their own journey to go through, and that success comes with dedication and time. Every amazing artist had to learn, practice and struggle their own way too.
Never heard of hiding behind art style before , all I do is copying anime that I love lol but I did learn something from this video thank you so muchh for making this😊🙌💕✨
So glad you found it useful! :)
@@ImadAwan Thank you for teaching us 😢😄💞💞
I was thinking about you, my graphic tablet arrived just now and yeah here you are now it's time to watch all of your videos again 😌
Awesome!!! ;)
Which one you have purchased?
I regular rewatch this cause you reiterate the importance of time and practise. Thank you for helping through a tough year
just listening to you speak helps a lot of artists let alone your skill level which is absolutely amazing
When I found your channel I was just looking for tips and tricks on how to make digital artwork look good. I had gotten comfortable with uncolored traditional artwork, and was trying a new medium with digital art and animation. To be honest, I've worked away from the mistakes you stated in the video for the most part... But I'd still call myself a beginner. Your videos are so helpful for me. Thank you.
Love this! It is so articulate and clear, and hilariously truthful! Thank you! I am watching your videos and I really appreciate your honesty and your expertise. Will recommend your videos to other artists.
It is a great feeling to underscore everything you declared. This is a great gift you give to us!💐
this is amazing!!! the colors are just mesmerizing. Great work
Really enjoyed this. All the things I needed to hear. Thank you.
Always the right balance of encouragement + tough truth. Great advice as usual. Liking that drawing style too 👍
Thanks a lot man!!!
Sir, from the bottom of my heart, I appreciate what you are doing, Thank you for sharing these information.
Thank you very much for this video, this is all I needed..I recently started learning anatomy and I got frustrated that it is going to take a while. As always you never disappoint.
Glad it was helpful!! :)
You sir, you came with the right video at the right time! Get out of my head though it's scary.
hahah oops! :D
Such a great list! Also in my own experience doing a lot of 3d renders and postwork i look back on some of my early work and i cringe, however there are things i did in previous pieces that i really love and i have learned bad habits that take me away from the purity of my art. I realize i am not the same person i was, but sometimes i wish i could get back some of the mindset when i didnt have a lot of skill, or tools and had to make due with what i had. I feel like i was more creative in some ways because i had to develop things around the scarcity.
I wasin a bad mood thinking that I'll never be able to do good art but when I saw you your videos... They helped me, not just in a tutorial way you made me realize the Truths, I was rushing and expecting to improve very fastly. Thank you for all the thing that you helped me, I really like you🙂. (I am drawing for like 8 moths )
That's great! Glad to be helpful! :)
I admire your straight forwardness and not sugar coating to encourage. Thanks a lot for giving a perspective.
P.S nice accent and great drawing
Peace 🙏
I went through 6 years of art school 20 years ago and just picked up drawing again a few months ago. I give myself a year to be back true to form. But that comment about "it's just my style.... No you suck" that is so true yet so funny. love the videos and your "style ;)" lol. Keep up the good work . You gained a sub.
This video was exactly what I needed to remove those shackles off me. You made a very honest and truthful point about not drawing hands. I have admit that I do not draw hands a lot and I definitely need to work on that.
Thank you so much for hitting it on my head xD
Happy to help! ;)
This is very helpful for those who are just starting out. I gotta admit I did all these things back then lol it's just so cringey seeing my works from 4-6 yrs ago. Also having a long term goal helps you to stay motivated.
So glad you found it helpful!! Looking back at previous work is painful :p
Thank you so much brother I am an traditional artist just move to digital art and the things you have mentioned I did that a lot I will make progress thank you so much 🔥🔥❤️
BEAUTIFUL ❤ Thank YOU very much 😀
Bro, You are doing a great job
Watching tutorials but not practising is the biggest mistakes of beginners like me and I discovered this factor some time ago but I was heaving no mentor who can help me to understand its concept you helped me a lot.
Keep doing good work.
JazakAllah
Glad to be of help friend!!
Just loved it.. proud of you 🤩🥰
i just start painting, good to know what behaviors to avoid and see where people often fail to avoid it, thx for the video^^
Hope you find it helpful! :)
Your art work is amazing. Art is really about passion and dedication ! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you! Cheers!!
Thanks brother.You are not only a skilled artist but also a great motivator
Thanks for the kind words!!
this is brilliant! Followed your advice, persevered, and did my first decent environment art. I think another big tip is that art takes a long time! you can't expect to draw something good in ten minutes, sometimes it can take hours or days. :)
Thank you! And yes that's quite true; thanks for sharing! :)
Hello, I'm a new begginer at digital drawing. This helps me a lot. Thankyou 🙏
U r just awsome!!!.....love the way u explain each n everything...keep it up man!!!
Thank you so much :)
That's so amazing, thankyou for remembering me, i'm ur subcriber now, and maybe now i can't bought ur bundle brush, maybe one day i will become good illustrator, and bought ur bundles, cause i believe, i will be what i believe, thanks for sharing and ur free bundle brush it's was so helping me to dedicated my self to be productive. Thankyou so much!
I love your channel's content, learned a lot from it, priceless
So happy to know that! :)
Thanks for the 'tough love'-style of this video. All these tips are great, but really boil down to the fact that you need to accept that practice makes perfect, and that you need to keep challenging yourself.
When I was young, people treated me like I was some kind of drawing prodigy. Sadly, I did not keep honing my skills, and 'didn't have time to draw' when 'adult life' started.
Now, after not having drawn for maybe 15 years, I'm exploring digital drawing, and let me tell you: it doesn't come easy, and I sure don't feel like a good artist. However, your videos have taught me so much, and this one is just spot-on.
I'm rambling, sorry, but long story short: thank you for your inspiring content:).
Wow thanks for sharing man! I hope you keep finding inspiration through my videos and achieve your goals! Have fun! :)
You motivated me today
Thanks for this guid video
Well said :) I'm a beginner and I'm doing all this mistakes😁!! now I'm going to crt it by practicing new suffs (thank you ur videos very useful for me 👍)
You're always welcome friend! :)
So helpful...
Thank you❤
Thank you! Some tips are new for me.
You are most welcome!
Thanx for great tips, Very helpful and motivational.
Glad to hear that!!
I'm just here to watch u draw 😊. Looks so relaxing
Thank you! Cheers!! :)
Mistake 12: Taking too long gaps between drawings, like extremely looong gaps. Seriously dont do that, youll only force yourself to learn everything over from ground zero.
Another great vid ✌️
Thanks for sharing!
thanks for pointing out the hand app. just bought it. damn usefull. for those outthere interested. it also has heads feet props etc and you can save scenes you set up.. this is amazin (and im not from that app)
Damn, I'm glad I stumbled upon your channel, so much helpful content for digital artists here!
Thank you! And welcome! :)
Great video and artwork but I noticed that the brush you used at 1:37 was not In your brush set and I thought it was really cool so I would love to know where you found it.
I think when it comes to learning from mistakes, while getting a sketchbook you won't show to anyone is a good way to get going if you're insecure about it, I think it's super worthwhile to aim at being just fine with mistakes altogether. I've found it very useful in life to not take mistakes personally. Plus people love correcting other people, and if you just act towards them like it's useful (even when it sometimes isn't) people will react more positively towards you. I mean there's no reason to go "Hey everybody! Here's my smudged mess" on instagram, but I think sharing it with a close friend - especially if you're both learning painting - can be pretty helpful in identifying and remembering the mistake.
This is most informative video I've ever seen... Thank you so much imad sir!!!. Can we able to see your inktober series??? I'm very excited!
Thanks a lot man! And I hope I get to create some ink drawings! I don't think I'll be able to do all 30 though :p
Hey Imad, love your content. Wondering if you were considering doing videos about sculpting, such as modelling in blender? I saw that you used a model of joker in blender for one of your drawings?
That advice about practicing is definitely what I was looking for. I see a lot of tutorials but rarely practice. Thanks
Any idea how can one push oneself to practice more and come out of procrastination?
I got the same issue...what works for me is that i don't wanna miss any digital art contests&challenges..great oportunity to push your self forward and do your best ; )
Wow ! this painting impressed me kk reminds me of aqyelas with oil paint. good job ! very cool, I think my most apparent mistake is still the textures of things, especially kk skin but it's like you said, constantly practice kk
Thank you very much! :)
I know asking for brushes is kinda beginner-ish but this particular one hit me hard, I wouldn't mind sticking with it through my learning journey
liked the video so much!
Thanks a lot man!
It's from Greg Rutkowski's brush pack!
This video is perfectly timed for me haha. Recently started trying to draw both animated stles and learn how to do digital art after years and years of traditional realism. It feels like starting over again and I've gone back to touch up on all the basics from proportions to focusing on eyes, mouths, etc (especially since anime's anatomy varies just enough to be weirdly difficult for me >.
Wow, so happy to hear that! Enjoy the process; happy painting! :)
Friend, I appreciate the contribution, I have subscribed to your channel, and I appreciate the brushes, the only thing is that to practice the style of this video of the swordsman, those two brushes of the effect of pastel crayons on canvas are missing, there would be a way that you can go up, if not then you are always great, and teach us more, which is always helpful, regards.
Thanks a lot for this info
sos un crack, tu trabajo será una fuente de inspiración
Already know this is gonna be good! 😎
Hope so! ;)
Thank u so much i really needed this
Glad it helped!!
THANK YOU!
You know, it usually takes several videos for me to subscribe to a channel. However, after seeing this, the first video I've seen by your channel, I think it would be beneficial to follow you. You have amazing tips. Thank you!!
Welcome aboard! Thanks for the sub! :)
Thank you very much, this video helped me.
So glad to hear that! :)
I agree with what you said so, I am going to practice a lot and keep a private sketchbook. I will focus on fundamentals too.
Just a small request, please do a video about correcting your subscribers art. Pretty please? That is going to help us a lot.
DAMN! I'm really expecting a concept art course made by you for a so long time!
I really wish I get time to create one! :(
@@ImadAwan I'll always wait for u!
Awesome talk + Awesome Art 👌🏼😊
Thank you so much 😀
Pation dictates action!
Awesome Video I will try to avoid these mistakes ;)
You got this my friend! :)
the top ->10
Your videos are great and there's a lot to learn ...👍👍👍
Thank you! :)
This video came in the right time, yesterday I bought a new sketchbook and I was thinking about return to learn to draw. Anyway, thank you for the videos, I met your channel some days ago, but the videos inspire me.
I'm sorry if my comment have grammatical errors, I'm still learning English, I can listen and understand, but sometimes is kinda difficult to make some sentences, especially when the phrase has words that I don't know. Hugs from Brazil 🇧🇷✨
That's wonderful! So happy to hear that! :)
9:13 lol I'm the reverse of this - I've been making art since I was 2 years old and when I see someone younger or with less experience making way more advanced art, I kinda kick myself for not having practiced enough.
What's the second brush name? please help, I love that
Thank u sir u are such a good person ❣
Thank you❤😊 🎨
No worries at all!
Damn good video - I don't tend to be one of these people that believes I'm good in my own bubble, but much more that I won't be any good because of a massive lack of faith that leads to lack of practice, that then leads to me not improving much, then I point at that as why I'm not a good artist and the cycle continues...
Do not lose faith in yourself friend. Learning something new can be a slow process. Try to enjoy that process!
@@ImadAwan thank you for your kind words man, been learning for what feels like years and don't seem to be progressing but I guess that's the struggle :)
Enjoyed the honesty
Thank you!!
love your art
Thank you so much!
as always, really good and helpfull advice. I can only strive to become better so I can perhaps one day work on animations!
Thanks man! Happy to know it was helpful for you! :)
About making excuses, I see many acquaintances of mine doing this. I don't have a computer or tablet and I can't even afford to buy one, but I wanted so much to draw in digital, that it wouldn't be the lack of a computer that would limit me, and I started on my cell phone, I found that I can work miracles with it. When I have a computer and can use Photoshop, I will have a previous knowledge because I took the first step and I DIDN'T INVENT EXCUSES!
Man truth has been told! 🔥
Great talent!
What brush do you use for painting at he beginning of the video?
Couldn't find the brush you used for the hair at 1:37 in your brushpack🥲 can you give me its name please?
Now I need a live stream. From you.
have dought about the brush set, could please told me to set this type brush
Sir your super I'm watching your videos from so many months. It's really helping me so much
Please do one video about matching colors in painting please ☺
Thanks man! And noted!! :)
I really really want to be a concept artist at some big studio.... you inspire me brother🥺❤
Thanks a lot man! Keep practicing, keep having fun!
Your videos are great motivation to me.. Thank you.....
my pleasure!! :)
Can u please spot out that reference books once more..
thank you for the wisdom
You're most welcome!
Good inspiration
As a beginner, your videos are a great source of help. Thanks for producing such amazing content. BTW where are you from?
Thanks a lot!!!
Number 4 is my main criticism of a lot of youtube artists. Some of them are incredibly talented but they are stuck on repeat with their content. There's countless channels i was initial excited to watch but after they did the same static female figure for the 10th time, I tuned out.
What's your opinion on software? I'm using Krita right now since it's free, but am I missing out on much compared to the paid software like PS? Also, keep up your style of videos dude, the no-nonsense, honest and non-sugarcoated way of explaining things is extremely endearing.
Could you make a cityscape painting tutorial from scratch with no photo textures? Thank you
Thanks a lot for the video🔥. Can you talk about how I can identify the mistakes in my art that I can improve upon. Where can I find people to critique my art?
I feel like family and friends praise our art no matter how bad it is.
Thanks man! Try joining the Discord server!
great video, thanks!
Glad you liked it!! :)
I am a Brazilian fan, his works are perfect. Would there be any way for you to subtitle your videos in Portuguese? That would greatly increase your fan base here. thanks!!
great video. books link in description are same.
ممنون پسر♥️
As a beginner artist myself this was really helpful 😇
Glad it was helpful!!
