These videos are all about “everything you need to know and no one will never tell you, who knows why”. Thank you, your videos are all I ever wanted to know. Keep it up!!!
Hell yes Mr Finch! I'm absolutely over-the-moon about the fact that you're uploading consistently now! Not only that, but tutorials as well? You are a legend
If you had told me back when I first watched your Gnomon DVD I still wouldn’t be as good as you in ten years, I might have been disheartened. Your draftsmanship was so inspiring, I’ve been studying your work off and on for a decade. Luckily, I practiced for so long I forgot about the goal and drawing is just a thing I do now. So cool you’re down to earth enough to release lessons. I hope more is coming. Thanks a million!
Wow. Watching you draw and comment on why you made the adjustment is extremely helpful. Like drawing the drawing the basic shape and then partially erase it only to finish it off. I’m trying that right now. Thank you.
Holy crap the best artist in the business, and someone who’s style I accidentally emulated, is now doing tutorials?! This is the best news I’ve heard all day
Saga Draws good luck, I’ve been drawing for 4-5 years and it’s been somewhat of a roller coaster ride, you have ups and downs, my best advice is to not copy others work but to do your own and make your own unique style and experiment with it and take your time, study anatomy and shadowing and how light bends around an object, do different characters and styles e.g realistic, comic book, concept art, anime, portraits e.t.c. Best of luck my friend. God bless
French comic artist also have excellent drawing skill. For exemple, Moëbius was pretty famous in USA for his scfi universe, but he begandrawing a western serie called Lieutenant Blueberry which is certainly one of the most impressive one you could ever read.
Very informative video Dave! Shadows are always a tough thing for me to get right on my characters. This tutorial made perfect sense. Thank you very much for creating this great content and can't wait for the next one! :)
I know your professional work but just found your channel. I've been binge watching and I'm amazed! I used to draw and when I was younger I thought I'd draw comics for a living. But as I got older, I lost my imagination. I began to draw more "still life" or photos even. But ive even stopped doing that (due to life and stuff). But watching you draw makes me feel like a kid again. As I see your picture take shape I get all "gitty" and find myself giggling with enjoyment! You make me want to start sketching again!! Thanks so much for the inspiration!
The experience really shows... I can do the same shadows as you but it wont look as confident, just because you have been doing this so long it's become second nature. man, what an inspiration !
People ask me how I have such clean detailed pages... well I’m lazy and one of the greatest illustrators in the history of the WORD so I just go ahead and draw it correctly the first time. Lol! Finch is GAWD!
Shading is one of the most important topics n helps bring your flat subject to life. This video will for sure help me!!! More shading/rendering stuff please
I'm a visually kinesthetic learner. Meaning i have to actually see what i'm trying to learn, annalise it, then do it myself. So this genuinely helped me better understand shadow for a figure, as well as how to better draw those figures. (I may have accidentally analyzed how you draw the figures for penciling, then figured out how to put that into ink. Now i just need to practice it.)
Thank you Mr. Finch, for inspiration and instruction! I was into comics and drawing back in the 90´s but I stopped couple of years before the first X-men-film came out (I live in finland and floppies were pretty rare here, most (mostly Marvel, some DC) comics were trades, compiled by the finnish publisher from all over the place (i.e. "X-Men" was basically a "best of" collection from every X-title from the late 80s to mid-90s, and it was impossible to follow...) I started drawing again 18 months ago, since Chris Nolan's DK-trilogy got me slowly back into comics. The Snyder/Capullo-run on Batman changed me from a Batman-fan who used to like Daredevil, Wolverine and Punisher to a Batman-fan who loves all things DC-related and likes some things Marvel-related. I'm 33yrs old so the fact that I'm a guitarist, first and foremost, it helps a lot since I've trained myself to practice new things. To some extent I know what to practice but it's getting harder and harder. Shading has been hard as ****.... So thank you!
Too few artists coming up today seem to grasp fundamental three-dimensionality. They just don't understand how to shade basic forms, and don't realize anatomical detail alone won't save a drawing. I greatly admire the work of artist/inker Rudy Nebres, who take things one step further and adds reflected light to further define and reveal form. He can get carried away sometimes (lol) but when firing on all cylinders, I think his work is amazing. Mr. Nebres is retired, but still doing commissions: The two of you should get together on something!
Thank you for this. I just turned on notifications so I will receive your posts to-the-minute updates. This inspired me to unearth your comic art tutorials from years back and I discovered content I purchased from your website I had forgotten about. This is awesome. Looking forward to future posts.
I appreciate this informative video. Since I don't want to miss upcoming content, I am subscribed. The rendering was sublime; it reminds me of sculpture.
Amazing talent. Amazing drawings. I absolutely love those kind of extremely detailed pages at the beginning (right before they get inked I guess). I just regret I have never had (and never will have) the patience to do those kinda of detailed drawings. I usually only spend a few minutes on a drawing, then stop, watch what I've done and deem it fit to be thrown to the trash can. Thank you for your artworks and for your talent. Cheers from France.
Bro I relate to the lazy artist thing, and also I kinda needed this video because I had wanted to get into this kind of style. It helped a lot and thanks
Just found this after trying Robert Marzullo's video. Can't wait to try it out!

Amazing chance to learn the secrets of drawing with one of the best artists of the world!! Many thanks David for sharing your skills with us! Great video!! :)
Wow this has helped me so much! I couldn't see the mistakes you mentioned in my art before this, so thank you so much , I'm a huge fan of your work by the way, I'm glad to see you starting up this channel 😁🔥
I can’t believe I just found these videos, amazing. I wish I’d known earlier. I’m working on a small group indie comic right now and I’m applying as much of this as I can now.
Fantastic! You guys inspired me to start sketching again, these videos are great to get the old noodle arm back in shape and learn some new techniques!
This is very informative.... You are one of my favorite living artists. One of your Batman pieces is the wallpaper on my phone. I'll keep watching.....
The ZHC tutorial we never got, i finally found where zhc's art style came from
That ZHC dude now only do custom iPhone Drawing and it sucks !
@@spikespiegel3197 yep some of his videos slowly turin cringe
You dare mention that wanna be's name in a holy place like this!?
@@theco-fownder9262 fax
ZHC used to be an awesome artist channel. Now he’s become a Mr Beast clone, and I don’t think he even draws anymore
0:09 number of years is irrelevant!!! The work speaks for itself! Beautiful!!!!!
These videos are all about “everything you need to know and no one will never tell you, who knows why”.
Thank you, your videos are all I ever wanted to know.
Keep it up!!!
I didn’t even realize you were uploading now. Yesss. This is awesome I love your art.
Thank you Sisilio!

So happy to have your videos on TH-cam. Thank you!
having grown up reading your comics, it is SO cool to see behind-the-scenes of the art that’s inspired me for so long. thanks for making these videos!
love your stuff man, you're incredible - thanks so much for giving back on utube!
Apprentices around the world! Behold!
Take the greatest pleasure in your study and appreciate this blessed knowledge

The modern master of shadow and hatching. Thank you Finch.

Holy crap the best artist in the business, and someone who’s style I accidentally emulated, is now doing tutorials?! This is the best news I’ve heard all day
In my opinion, the best comicbook art style is Travis Charest's
Saga Draws good luck, I’ve been drawing for 4-5 years and it’s been somewhat of a roller coaster ride, you have ups and downs, my best advice is to not copy others work but to do your own and make your own unique style and experiment with it and take your time, study anatomy and shadowing and how light bends around an object, do different characters and styles e.g realistic, comic book, concept art, anime, portraits e.t.c.

Thanks Robert! And thanks for earlier on. I really have forgotten a lot, and I got a lot out of talking about arms.
@@DavidFinchartist Happy to help where I can. Your tips on foreshortening and perspective were super helpful. You’re a great teacher!
ROOOOOOOOB!!!!! I LOVE YOU MAN!!!
@@DavidFinchartist your Magneto at 0:13 is awesome! What comic/issue was that featured in?
@@lawrenceinsley4114 It is featured on ULTIMATUM series. Written by Jeph Loeb and art by the great David Finch.
Wow.. I was shocked when I saw the notification thanks for the video
So insane to see my artistic hero’s from my youth give tutorials-When I was a 12 y/o kid I wouldn’t have even fathomed such a thing!
So many years thinking I was shading a detail things wrong. But nope I was on the right path thank you.

Thanks David not in all the tutorials teach the shadows in the anatomy as you do, for those of us who are learning this is a delicacy
The experience really shows... I can do the same shadows as you but it wont look as confident, just because you have been doing this so long it's become second nature. man, what an inspiration !

Thank you for these videos David, your work truly inspires me.
You're one of my favorite artists out there now! Love that you have a channel
You're one of my favorite artists, thank you for these tips!
Thanks, this is the thing that I always try to analyze from your art, since it looks so sick
amazing and your articulation is so easy to understand. Thank you
Another top video, this is something I need to work on in my work so this was very very helpful, thanks again for your time.
Been a fan of your shadowing
I think this is the tutorial we've all been waiting for
This is super helpful . I think I speak for everyone here when I say : thank you so much !!!! Keep it up

How can you not have more subs with the miracles you make!? *Sigh* I forgot I'm in a place where only a chosen few know the meaning of art
Thank you very much for the advice and examples. Easy to follow along and explained well. Again thanks sir!!!!

Great quick lesson. Thanks for sharing!
Love your pencils Mr Finch. They always look better than the coloured picture.
Great lesson. I understand this but have not been able to implement it. Thanks
for new inspiration.
Fantastic video! This will help me so much! Thanks!
And THAT is one big reason why, "Learn your anatomy" is usually one of the first pieces of advice you hear when learning to draw figures.
Yes! Great video, hopefully new artists can get this and practice up!
That was amazing, I have always wondered how you drew such beautiful pencil work, now I can see how. Please keep up the good work.
Thank you for this. I just turned on notifications so I will receive your posts to-the-minute updates. This inspired me to unearth your comic art tutorials from years back and I discovered content I purchased from your website I had forgotten about. This is awesome. Looking forward to future posts.
Wow! This was really helpful. You teach really well David. I'm also glad that your video quality is really good. ❤
Really solid teaching here David.
This is definitely what I needed rn, Im really struggling on how to put shadows on my figures. Thus is very helpful Thank you.
I appreciate this informative video. Since I don't want to miss upcoming content, I am subscribed. The rendering was sublime; it reminds me of sculpture.
Great tutorial, Dave! Im going to use this to help me with the piece l'm working on now. Thanks 😊
This was a very detailed explanation, sir. Thank you for this video, it will help out a lot.
Excellent video there are many great artists but few are also great teachers, thank you for sharing
Amazing talent. Amazing drawings. I absolutely love those kind of extremely detailed pages at the beginning (right before they get inked I guess).
I just regret I have never had (and never will have) the patience to do those kinda of detailed drawings. I usually only spend a few minutes on a drawing, then stop, watch what I've done and deem it fit to be thrown to the trash can.
Thank you for your artworks and for your talent. Cheers from France.
HUGE help. Thank you so much for this !!!!!
Bro I relate to the lazy artist thing, and also I kinda needed this video because I had wanted to get into this kind of style. It helped a lot and thanks
I totally understand what you mean when you said that you’re a “lazy artist.” I’m the same way myself. The less work I have to do, the better.
Just found this after trying Robert Marzullo's video. Can't wait to try it out!
