I think Ross Draws is good at teaching painting techniques and shows how to make an illustration that looks nice, and they are usually fairly calm/peaceful. Ethan Becker teaches how to simplify and notice patterns, which is extremely helpful for dynamic characters who are in motion(especially in animation).

It's a part of studying and he only draws guide lines; and he knows that Ross won't be mad over simple redrawing of his character's sillouettes, they're not babies :p
WLOP can portrait beautiful faces and expressions at the same time, not always but he's better at it than Ross (both of them are awesome, to make things clear)
Ethan stated at the beginning of the video that he is an animator while Ross is an illustrator, hence why he focuses much more on expressions to make them simple yet lively. Also having beautiful people WITH expressions is the best of both, like others said.
10:43 was much more profound than I think Ethan realizes. He kind of pawns this off as an 'additional tip' but this is extremely important and I feel like my art is significantly more expressive as a result.
ATTENTION BROTHER!!! I have two very very sweet girlfriends who I show off (I smell like 100 not-alive orangutans oh nooo) in my perfectly great videos that most people consider to be the reason of life! Thank you for you attention, dear dude kid yo
The fact that Ross is actually gonna be watching the video for sure I- *This is it, Ethan vs Art TH-camrs who make people think drawing is all peace and quiet WHEN IT’S NOT-*
I really like this “3 simple steps, I’ll explain them briefly at the start, then we’ll go into detail” method of presenting the video Gets to the point, breaks it down, shows all the steps at once So much better than infinite steps revealed at the end of the video lol
i always thought something was kinda off w ross's faces and now that ethan pointed it out it made so much sense because i tend to draw dead faces as well. expressions isnt much focused on i think (in general) but because ethan is in animation it's super helpful for his audience even if theyre not in animation.
@@raz5307 Yeah. Even when he draws them smiling they don't really look happy. It's like looking at someone posing for a camera and forcing an expression kinda.
Ethan is like the Bruce Lee of animation coaches, 'Use what's useful, discard what's useless.' I always watch his stuff when my work ethic needs a kick in the ass.
"Now you can click that link in the description and learn from amateurs on the internet. Or you can click that other link in the description and learn from professionals on the internet. _thats right, I'm my own sponsor now_ " I love your videos, Ethan. Perfect mix of joking and learning.
My dudes gaby drawings r better then urs so take your wojb baby drawings outta here I don't see the point if this stupid ooohh Ethan becier vs Ross itsnlike apple vs Samsung its pointless
i swear every time i don't know how to do something (in this case is expressions) and ethan uploads a video about it he always gives advice that just seems so obvious to apply in hindsight and yet with each video i experience an epiphany
This is definitely one of Ethan's best. Wish he did more of these. Love his angry artist character! As someone who is trying hard to get better at art and learn all the technical stuff, Ethan's videos are very cathartic. It's a real relief to be able to laugh at it all once in a while.
Not gonna lie, this is something that I've noticed. And I know he's not gonna say it's a bad thing, like with the hands video, but Ross's faces to tend to look the same.
you know what. I noticed that about than not long ago. he gives good critiques to help others out in a very entertaining movieish way basically a Ethan movie universe on youtube.
meh, It's every popular illustrators main problem I'd say (yes I am generalizing) but take sakimichan, 90% dead face. Marc Brunet (founder of cubebrush), 90% dead face Yuumei , 100% dead face Guweiz, 100% dead face The list goes on~ I think that capturing an interesting emotion while keeping the character "pretty" is just harder than Ethan makes it look; especially when using a more realistic painting style.
@@hedfe it's exactly because of what Ethan said he is an animator. Our field requires alot of facial expressions, body movement, overall "life" in our work because our work is more simplified so we need to make up for it in other ways. Illustrators focus on the details and create beautiful more complex works that would usually not work if animated/modelled ect. Each field excelles in different parts of art, that's why it's good to learn from artists outside your field they will have insights very helpful to you. It is easy for Ethan because he's an animator, but Ross has his own talents Ethan can't replicate.
@@hedfe It's not because keeping the character pretty while showing emotions is hard per se, but because they're all drawn making svelte modeling expressions (or traced over people making them). It's fine for real life models to all make the same kind of sexy-serious expression because every head and face is unique and we've evolved to pick up on tiny details and nuances in them. It becomes a problem for a lot of illustrators because there is a uniformity to the way they approach things while lacking the detail required to naturally set one face apart from other another within their own body of work, even if their style in and of itself is very unique and distinctive.
@@hedfe i dont think it is harder. i think they are just not going for those vibes? at least with yuumei's work i know that it aims to tell a story not through the expression but the poses, setting, colours - some of her more dramatic art would definitely not work with more "expressing" faces..
professional graphic designer, been drawing since childhood. why did i learn more about drawing expressions in 15 minutes than i have in years?? thanks SO much
This is.. useful. I've been told my expressions are good but watching this I can see I have a lot to learn. Thank you! This was a entertaining learning experience.
Exactly, it's so easy to add some smirk, open mouth a little bit ect, if someone like Ross doesn't do it then it means it's his preference to draw "dead faces" only.
0:00 coming back here and i imagine ross casually checking his notification and sees ethan refollowing him and thinking "what the hell is ethan becker up to this time?"
Ethan: "BReak down children as they are less likely to hold back their expressions, and you get a more raw, real look into how people express themselves" Me: "BREAK CHILDREN."
I dont know why this is recommended to me, Im not even an artist but its great to see someone professional roasting other people on their basically job too
Once I was searching for "pretty boys" on Google bc I wanted to create my OC's face and hairstyle and gosh, I felt guilty for even feeling guilty about it... 😅
Ethan: "I've never traced. Don't know what that is." Me: *spams X to doubt* Everyone has done it - me, you, everyone. I like the vibe of your vids. Keep it up! I'm gonna keep all these tips in mind. Thanks, Ethan!
