I remember when i was in elementary and highschool i always joined on different school competition for cartooning , and shading is very important it gives life to your drawing. sadly i stopped drawing after college , these videos encourage me to continue what i enjoyed doing before .
All I can say is don't give up lol, I stopped drawing when I entered high school and have only recently started again after a couple years of university. Definitely glad I got back into it and have been having a lot fun (even though I kinda suck rn ngl)
The limbic system doesn't care about logic philosophy and rhetoric. It wants what feels good. People overdosing on sidewalks aren't insane. The part that knows what you should do and the part that guides what you actually do aren't connected. You have to make drawing your addiction. This means giving up your phone and the internet. If you get on your phone when you wake up and again when you take a break, I promise you're hard wiring yourself to hate drawing. The solution is don't touch your phone in the morning, not even to check the time. Eat breakfast and get your coffee and whatever and when that sense of boredom creeps in, that's when you draw. Your brain is going to fight hard to get you to do anything else on your breaks (every 20-25 minutes and stop when you're excited, don't keep pushing into frustration) but it's vital you create a loop where you're enjoying drawing and wanting to get back to it on your breaks. Jung's philosophies on psychology are good for a lasting understanding of yourself but drawing is simple behavioral psychology: create an environment where the thing you want to get good at is the most fun thing in the room. P.S. Reward systems are the most flawed thing society has came up with. Doing something hard then doing something fun isn't rewarding the difficult behavior it's rewarding the fact that you quit doing it. That's exactly how Pavlov would train a person to hate drawing
the way you draw the faces so effortlessly is amazing. I can't do that without very detailed guidelines unless i have a photo reference! You're amazing!
Another way to get a better idea of toning is to have a miniature face sculpture, an action figure from the shop would work. Observing and learning the toning by placing the light from multiple angles also helps a lot. This tutorial gives a very good explanation of prioritizing different shadows. It is also necessary to have a good idea about the way the muscles are distributed over the face. Basically, face anatomy, for toning faces.
I'd love more videos on the comic art style. It's a very unique style to me and a lot of other people who never thought about doing it another way than your usual anime or cartoony. It's also amazing to help with other aspects of other styles
I was so freaking excited for this episode. Huge fan. Thanks to Proko and David Finch for this amazing video! Would love to see more like this in the future :).
To me comic shading is like negative space...instead of drawing a shape and shading the light, you use the shading to give the illusion of a shape and ignore all the logic of light
Thanks for the tips. The arrow pointing the light source really helps. I wonder if comics have some different way of approach to ambient occlusion shading
Most likely for better grip. Plus our hands form into a ball and have empty space so instead of holding our pencil intensely and getting cramps, he puts something for the ball of the hand to hold.

1/6 Hot toys heads are good for this kind of thing.
I never thought that much about shading and lightsourse until I am done with composition and base colors. Thank you, this will help a lot!

Absolutely love Dave Finch. Thanks for keeping it simple.

David finch competent and good communicator and beautiful voice
David Finch art work is stunning.
I just finished making a line art of drawing for my exam and I needed a tutorial for shading. This uploaded perfectly timed after that.
R.I.P
Now I have a little bit clearer how to shade my drawings. Thank you, Proko and David for this basic but truly useful video :D
Shading has always been something I’ve struggled with ✍🏾 thx for making a tutorial
I love David Finch tutorials

Thats what I like about the comic book style its so cool
@@gigaacademia9313sometimes you can show the character's thought and expression by shading lol
@@rightbrained4771 I know
Please explain further... I need to know.
Yeah it's what comic book artists, colourists and inkers call 'dynamic lighting'.....or more commonly known as 'making it up as you go along' 😂😂😂
I like it ❤ It shows easy ways to create depths using shadows and shading .
Dave, is the GOAT!
Legendary! Love seeing Dave on the channel
I've been trying to understand for a while now which types of shadows to cross-hatch and which to leave hard-lined, but this sums it up quite nicely.
Thanks Proko!
This is what I need to know to paint my art works,thank you artist teacher.
Lots of love from Begonia Art. You such an amazing artist
Thanks for the tips. The arrow pointing the light source really helps. I wonder if comics have some different way of approach to ambient occlusion shading
David finch is like the friend who show you a cool trick that you understand batter than you would understand after thousand toturials and teachers
Thank u so much the shading was a huge problem to me and i wanna learn art its one of the things i enjoyed in my life
Thank you
Dave is a beast
thank you so much david!
This man was able to draw a better nose than I have ever made in 3 seconds tops
Great lesson and tips on comic shading from an industry vet like Dave Finch. Very useful yet very handy for doing comic book pages. 👍
Commenting for the algorithm. My recommendations are in shambles
Thank you! This was very helpful!
Short . But i got alot from it .
Awesome as always
Very helpful and clear video, to master this technique

“The Best in the Business”
He really is.
You really solved a problem i was thinking. Thanks you
Yay ive been wanting to learn to shade better
This video is very informational. I've always had problem with the proper shading angles. New Subbie!!
Awesome video!
where do you get the lead holder?? I've been looking everywhere for one and I can't find one :(
internalize the renderer, capture the light in your mind
I know this is a pointless detail, but I just realized that he is left handed
(While Miller, Waid, and the like are incomparable, Finch, he's the greatest - period.)
Does anyone know what kinda pencil is that and how is it called?
2mm lead holder
Staedtler lead holder. They're EXCELLENT by the way.....
Thank you for this beautiful I can’t afford college or any online education so this really helps!
Do you have a shading clothes and hair video?
What is a body shadow if i may ask
Great video 👍
What about shadows when there are more than one figures in a panel?
Very nice sketching wish to have experts like this 😍🔥
I loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee you Mr David F thanks for everything
does anyone know where i can get a pencil like his
I didn't get the light the the dark thing . Can someone explain it to me ?
What pencil is that?
Awesome! Thanks for the tips. /o/
❤️❤️
ALL CAPS QUESTION: CAN YOU MAKE A VIDEO ON THE INTRICACIES OF THE GESTURES OF FOLDS ON HEAVY FALL SWEATERS?? PRIMARY AND SECONDARY FORMS PLZ!!!

Why do you have a bunch of tape around your pencil in the middle?
Most likely for better grip. Plus our hands form into a ball and have empty space so instead of holding our pencil intensely and getting cramps, he puts something for the ball of the hand to hold.

I see Dave, I click
Please don’t tell me you have cancer, I’m going to be really sad if you do, and I’m proud of you teaching us on how to be a better comic artist.
No dont worry, David has had no hair for decades.
@@MrDezokokotar from the beginning?
@@magicanimal1532
i think he never had hair .
It’s likely alopecia.
But I thought we had the technology for boldness?
aigtht betttt
Not David Finsher

Any Ideas on how to draw the complex parts of mechs and robots. Just a little beyond the simple forms making the design look believable
Anyone else think David Finch looks kinda like Bat Boy?
