Mmmmmmomo
Momomoommmmmmmmmm
One thing I absolutely love about these kinds of videos is that even if I'm not at the level to execute this, it really really increases my ability to study other people's drawings and appreciate them even more deeply. 🙌🏽
th-cam.com/video/36XJ_CyQTCk/w-d-xo.html 🌸🙏
Ikr!
At the end you can really analize it better, the techniques come together as a whole!
well said
@1:38 "If you draw a circle just like this."
Me: "Thank God. There's hope for me still."
I've come to understand that most artists can't make a perfect circle in one stroke. They just give a lot more effort making one.
Yeah ghosting is real helpful for circles amd lines
You just described the first exercise from the book Fun with a pencil by Andrew Loomis. Check that out.
@@reallyoriginalusername4574 yes it isss!! ghosting > lots of confusing lines
I'm left handed, so this video is a godsend.
Lefties unite
Join the club 🤙
It makes absolutely no difference
God is probably left handed
Haha same for an my forename
Finally a worthy lesson. My learning would be legendary!
Sure does dude! That's why I love learning from guys like David Finch; a treasure trove of experience and he damn well knows what he is doing. Thumbs up to this guy!
all lessons are worthy..
this is the best thing i’ve seen all day
Good one hehehehe
Kung fu panda Doom doom do doom
Idk how Proko manages to top themselves every single year, 12 days of proko and lightbox always blows me away but this year is on a whol other level!
Also the production level is high on the sky!
Its call passion for the craft. There is so much we don't know
This is the first time I've heard anyone explain 'why.' I literally had this question back in college and my professor told me to just study what others do, nothing about the technique. Thank you, thank you, thank you, Mr Finch sir
I’ve been drawing in a western comic book style, mainly focusing on poster and cover art, for over 20+ years. I have never felt strong in my inking skills because I just couldn’t get a ‘professional’ look with my finished inked drawings. These videos have taught me so much in an amazingly short amount of time. Thank you so much for doing this series David, I have been a fan of your artwork for as long as I can remember. Much ❤️
In my humble opinion I think it can be better to forge your own style and not compare your work with anyone else's. Someday people will look at your art and say "That's instantly recognizable as a Light Echo and it's fantastic ".
Dave Finch’s technique is awesome. I love his style. Thanks for having him on your channel.
👍
Jim Lee inspired.
@@greencasehe was making comics since around jim lees time
David began working at top cow for Marc silvestri in 1995. By that time Jim Lee already established his own style. So yeah many were inspired by Jim. Nothing wrong with that.
His quick and dirty examples are better than my best drawings
Well, he has over 20 plus years of even uglier works. So, hang in there and keep practicing like they say...
Don’t remind me…😑
It's mostly that crazy pencil.
@@loubonnett Yeah that pencil is magic, man.
That is what I call service to humanity with unconditional LOVE...THANKS
The single greatest description of not only how, but why, on crosshatching. Bravo! Very well done!
Finch's probably the most detail oriented comics artist on the planet and in the best way possible. Love his work!
I’m so glad Proko is inviting David Finch he and his wife are very nice people and all artists are struggling in these crazy times! Love to Meredith , Dave and Proko from the bottom of my heart! ✨✨💕💕💕👍✨✨

David Finch on Proko? Yes please! Merry Christmas indeed
Excellent. I've never studied comic art, but I noticed that the crosshatching seemed codified, and this explained it very well.
Stan looks like he secretly knows quantum physics but decided not to tell anyone
Stan both knows quantum physics and doesn't know quantum physics until he confirms.
:0 big brain
We can only guess at the tips that they won't tell us. Like what to do when practicing makes you worse
well.. dude needs rendering algorythms haha
So awesome to see this great collaboration, Everyone check out David’s streams they are amazing!
th-cam.com/video/36XJ_CyQTCk/w-d-xo.html 👍
David is the man, everysingle advice is gold OMG.
I come back to this video so many times, all those artist here are just incredible, I'm in awe every time I come to this channel
I learned more from this than literally all the other videos I’ve watched combined
DO more like this
I love Proko
i’m glad you all have been branching out from the academic stuff and touching on the more casual or graphic stuff.
Just finished watching David's hand tutorial, now this!!! 12 days of happiness indeed ❤️❤️
Yeah, the notification for this came on while I was watching the hand tutorial he just uploaded lol
Yeah.
I love Finch in comics! So underrated!
I just finished watching a couple of his videos so the is a good surprise.
Same here
Yes I can’t wait to watch!! Been waiting for David to make a tutorial on this, and it’s nice and long. So much to learn!
And on top of that my commission made an appearance at 7:10. So cool! This is the way
This is the way! 👍
Yes I remember hem drawing it for you it was a fun live stream ❤
its nice and long

Great to see a master at work. Truly impressive and shows just how much skill and work goes into something the reader takes for granted
All of these videos have really helped me improve in countless different ways. Without taking art classes or ever having the opportunity to do so, these videos have been huge in my journey with art. I am very appreciative of every video. Thank you!
It is amazing how you can breakdown the complex parts into simpler components of art. Thanks for your great lesson.
Decided to become a comic book artist. Wanted to be a manga artist but the diversity and realism of comics is just amazing. Here's to hoping 2021 is my year to finally push my career forward and escape the horrors of general labor. Fingers crossed 🤞
How’d it go?
its been 2 years.... I hope you succeed in all your endeavors
I've watched this video several times and it never ceases to amaze me, how effortless David is with his drawing. His skill level is really insane. Thanks to Proko and David for sharing this!
now we know where does ZHC's style come from
IKR, ZHC's version explaining his style was inadequate, he is a great artist but not a good teacher. So it is satisfying to learn it from someone who is both a good teacher and a good artist.
Love both but David is my favorite teacher 🍀
ZHC yoinked Finch’s style and got famous off it
@@zombiecandy570 True, ut David is totally okay with ZHC having him as a big influence.
Did you see the comfort thing in the middle of his mechanical pencil?As i saw it the only thing that came in my head is that video on how to mod your mechanical pencil
Awesome break down of rendering. Love David Finch's process!
David Finch is an extraordinary artist and a masterful teacher!! Thank you 😊
Aaah man, three decades I’ve been rendering and ink drawing, almost but never clearing the hurdle, too many times I overworked, lost consistency of form direction, and this genius nails it it one, WOW thank you so much for the knowledge ....simply and perfectly put.🙏🏻
All artists were friends!
I’m just so disoriented from seeing a fellow left handed artist
Ikr I thought something was off for a lot of this
Fellow left handed artist here lol
Proko, Aaron Blaise, and Kopinski are all left handed.
This is definitely my favorite rendering technique. Reminds me of being fascinated by comic illustrations as a kid. I was born in the 80's lol
th-cam.com/video/36XJ_CyQTCk/w-d-xo.html 👍
My 6th grade art teacher (back in 1962-'63) made learning crosshatching sound like some mysterious rite of passage that we would only get to as more advanced artists. Over the years I just taught myself as I never had anyone actually teach me outright.
He is really amazing, good teacher and he didn't mind to share his technique completely ,I always struggled using this cross hatch technique, not any more, nice video
Thank you so much for sharing your mental process during the creation of theses masterpieces!
Must see lesson for every, I mean EVERY, student in woodcut/engraving studio. Bid THANK YOU to David and Proko as well!
Thank you David Finch AND Proko for this video. Been waiting forever for David Finch to explain his cross-hatching!!!!
Thanx Proko. For having david finch do a tutorial! Very useful!😊👍
Such great advice! The separation from form shadows and cast shadows finally made sense to me in this video, and it revealed to me different philosophies to crosshatching that I had no idea existed. Thank you David Finch and the Proko team!
th-cam.com/video/36XJ_CyQTCk/w-d-xo.html 👍
Holy crap -- this is a 27-minute masterclass.
David Finch is for sure one of my favorite artists and one of the best comic book artists ever.
Thanks, David for your time and great lessons and thanks, proko for providing us with the best artists' advice including yours
th-cam.com/video/36XJ_CyQTCk/w-d-xo.html 👍
That's amazing... learned in 27 minutes more than in the last half year! Thanks!
this was the one I was looking forward to the most, and it did not disappoint! I needed these tips. Definitely checking out this guy's channel.
Hatching and cross hatching are my favourite types of mark making!! Thank you for this!!!
This is the best crosshatching lesson I've seen. Bravo!
Thank you for posting, I found this instantly useable and am already happier with my drawings after implementing the hatching towards the light trick he shared here! :)
Now it will be nice see Proko on Finch's Monday Night Draw :D
Please make it happen
Outstanding demo by David loved his explanation as he rendered the drawing
Outstanding teaching of cross-hatch technique. You have amazing talent David. You are truly, truly talented.
I love this, been struggling to render things with cross hatching.
Thanks Proko! for featuring a true master. I love your tutorials very much as well Proko, I definitely have improved my skills with them.
th-cam.com/video/36XJ_CyQTCk/w-d-xo.html 👍
This is the first time I’ve seen something like this before and it was incredible for me to watch. I learn so much just watching him do some cross hatching at the beginning it was amazing. Thank you so much for sharing David Finch you are truly a master.!!
Thank you David. I've been drawing all my life and you taught me some great new techniques and really explained why you did each step. Brilliant!
I have been a David Finch fan for many years. Loved his tutorials on Human anatomy!! This was a good one. Thanks
th-cam.com/video/36XJ_CyQTCk/w-d-xo.html 👍
Slap!!! That sound is my hand hitting my forehead. I've been struggling with crosshatching after watching this video it finally makes more sense. Davids channel is awesome everyone check it out.
I'm left-handed too!!! It's so nice to see another left-handed person do it instead of a right-handed person and trying to adjust it my brain. That never works out right
This may be the best crosshatching explanation/demonstration I have ever seen. Thanks.
The amount of material David is putting out, I think I should put him on my CV as a teacher. I don't even draw professionally lmao
Also, holy hell thanks proko! New to your channel as well and was just a delight to see this.
th-cam.com/video/36XJ_CyQTCk/w-d-xo.html 👍
Yesssss! David is the best hatching/shadows artist in comics!! ✍️
Hi
@@kennywang171 Hi Kenny 👋 nice to see you over here lol
Nice drawing
Always love watching David
thank you for this so effective explanation and demonstration of cast shadow, cross hatch direction and direction of light source, worthy lesson !
th-cam.com/video/36XJ_CyQTCk/w-d-xo.html 👍
Imagine his son gets a school project on comics.....
Did your dad draw this, little Timmy?
no!
@@DeviN99de David in the background: Hey son does your teacher want me to do super detailed artwork or just figure sketches
You mean ZHC? Jk
@@sidjones16 have you seen ZHC's channel lately. Only his old fans whould know about his comic book style drawings.
@@natnaelzeray3673 I dont like his content anymore tbh
Literally the best ever video tutorial I have ever seen about cartoon hatching. Thank you David Finch and Proko!
One of the best tutorials on how to advance your cross hatching I’ve seen. It can be challenging to find advice that covers how to actually create different quality lines and what to bear in mind in relation to direction and type of line to use. Having a base of shading in place was really useful. I’m keen to develop a more representative (?figurative) style of drawing rather than totally realistic yet still keep form and shape. Thank you so much.
I feel like everything is now good in the world. An amazing left handed comic artist.
This was definitely a treat. It's nice to see how to render, especially when other processes proceed rendering, such as coloring or watercolor. I have the problem of turning everything into what looks like a lithograph. I like working in detail like Alphonso Dunn, who is a great pen and ink artist, but seeing a tasteful, succinct method of rendering is great. Knowing when less is more...
th-cam.com/video/36XJ_CyQTCk/w-d-xo.html 👍
This guy is an amazing fucking teacher. Actual comprehensive steps that break down the most intimidating aspect of that stunning style of comic book everyone wants to make. This is rare
Amazing demo. Best on the subject of cross-hatching!
NIce clear demonstration, good explanation of underlying principles
You legit made a random shape look good.... I wish I had your talent!
A tutorial by a left handed artist just like myself! Thank you!!! 😁 Love your works and this video! 👍❤️
I watched other videos but u got my attention by showing how it's done in details in the beginning of the video thanks
Thought David uploaded twice, the Proko intro rolled and I'm like "waaaaaiiiiitttt... Oh shit!"
David Finch is awesome, this taught me some new stuff, thanks Proko.
Pls join FinchBunch all Mondays! His wife Meredith and him are the nicest people ever! 💕
Fantastic video! I love David Finch so much
✨✨✨👍
Loved the demo! Always thought cross hatching had to be, well, crossed! But this type of rendering to soften things up really adds to the overall look.
You learn a lot each time，thank you
This was amazing!!! I’ve been a fan of David Finch for a while and this was very helpful!!!
This helped me understand hatching on another level. Thank you
Amazing tutorial, love it!
Perfect timing after the Heinrich Kley video
Great Demo and class!!!!
I think David is the best artist currently working in comics because of his versatility and ability to draw *_everything_* brilliantly and excitingly. And although they may not be connected thru any living continuity, I think his rendering style is a worthy successor to the incredible inking of Rudy Nebres. Thanks, David!
Absolutely impressive.
This was great! Advice from the master! He‘s just the best, I learned so much from him!
I've recently gone through your channel. You're no less than a master to alot of us, sensei.
@@adeeltahirmusic thank you so much, that’s very nice of you to say ☺️😅🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Thank you very much for the upload! Great lesson!
OMG,DAVID HERE ? YES ! YES !
"We are just gonna take a figure i've drone here" Just casually putting my monstrous level here... there we go.
Thank you! So useful 😍👍
Wow... I didn't like cross hatching much before but now... that's an incredible demo! i love it!
Excellent demo, clear explanations, great advices. Thanks
