![How to Draw a "Realistic" Manga Face [pt. 2: Shading]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/uKrEz0LGZLQ/mqdefault.jpg)
Patience is so paramount, I had to train myself to slow down when drawing and painting, the results are so much better when not rushed.
MrMantastico same I'm good but I just hate waisting time.
MrMantastico lol funny cuz i made a semi hyper realistic portrait in a short amount of time
Enjoyin watching the video.
Ice The masked no you didn’t
One problem is if you're working on something for an exam - like the GCSE art qualification in the UK. You get ten hours - and that soon goes. You think it's a long time - until you try it.
For me the real time shading is what I need to learn. I'm a visual learner, so I learn more by watching people rather than just teaching myself the best way to do something. So thank you Mark for taking the time to do this video. I promise it has not been wasted.
Thank you!
mexican girl you too I can barely shade the complete picture, but I try to make it look so realistic
I can watch 4 hours of how to shade i just love it and i also learn from it a lot so thank you so much! i've been watching your videos since 2011 and i always learn something new from them
+shelly shukrun Thank you Shelly :)
This was amazing! So happy someone has taken the time to teach and not just show off how good they are. The time lapse bits were perfectly timed...and showing the real time gives more a sense of the patience it requires to be a great artist. Thank you
Shelley Norris Thank you Shelley :)
Like so many others, I think the real time is fantastic! My drawing tends to be rushed and while part of that is me, I think watching 100 time lapsed videos contributes to my problem as well because it speeds up my internal clock. Real time video, on the other hand, gives me a specific example of what I can, hopefully, someday achieve. You are literally demonstrating the patience needed to get the results we all desire. This video "resets" the whole pace expectation and that is why it is so truly helpful. Thank you so much! I could write more but, right now, I need to draw something...
I appreciate watching your work unfold slowly. My own speed is full throttle and I’m making too many mistakes. To watch your carefully gentle strokes come together, giving the picture form, makes me realise how crucial it is to go softly. Don’t be self conscious about your voiceover. You have a rather soothing voice pattern that also helps convey the necessity for gentleness as you shade.
Thank you Cheryl!
Mark, this IS so appreciated! I am a teacher and I have been using your books (bought almost all of your Manga series, and your realism book). THIS IS the way to help us understand your process and learn about your technique(s)! Thank you! Breaking it all down more slowly is inestimably helpful.
Watching your stokes is about copying your "touch" and to see it all develop is awesome! Shows me the touch and the directions that help you achieve the look you want.
Keep breaking it down, man. Real time rocks!
Seeing the shading in real time is ENORMOUSLY helpful! Thank you.
This video couldn't have come at a better time for me. Now that I've got some basic drawing skills down, the temptation to rush through the shading has been pretty strong, to the point where quality has been backsliding somewhat. This has been a very useful, timely reminder of the virtues of patience and restraint. Thanks, sensei :-)
CaraKiriyama Thank you!
I love these kinds of videos, when you just work and kind of just says the stuff that pops into your mind! It's really relaxing and I kind of just watch and learn!
Mark,
you are spot on for allowing me to look over your shoulder while you shade in real time. Shading is fundamental to a realistic portrayal of your subject and so subtle it's difficult to grasp other than to see it done. For me the talking is welcome and answers my questions as the pop into head as you move along. If a viewer finds it is too much they can always take a break and return later with a fresh perspective. As for me please continue the way you share your knowledge, It works for me.
You're part of the reason I love drawing and want to be graphic novelist and manga artist. Another great video, Master Criley.
***** Thank you :)
I greatly enjoy watching you do as much real-time as possible. It gives a much better sense of just how long it takes to produce a quality drawing, and shows that you really do get out exactly what you put in.
I’m just starting to learn how to draw and I don’t know how to shade or anything so being shown how to shade correctly and everything like that it will be invaluable to me thank you Mark!
I find these real time videos very helpful. Showing the pace, the patience, helps put my own in perspective. Thanks for the vids, the books, the help ;)
I really appreciate the time you took to detail your shading techniques. Shading is always a struggle for me to do well. Real time seemed to be the best way to communicate your process.
I love the good, soft side of youtube, this is just so beautiful and calming
I love the slow shading and commentary. It’s easier to learn and see why you do the things you do. Anyone can put lines down on a paper. But to see how you bring it to life is where the gold lies. This video is amazing and I hope you do many more like it
Fantastic video. Please don't be shy about long videos. I learn the most from watching the full process. Best shading video I've seen on TH-cam. Thanks!
Mark you are an amazing artist! I have Mastering Manga and am thinking about getting the second one. Thanks for inspiring me! Your videos have taught me to be a really good artist at a young age. Thanks for everything!
chrisARTstudio Thank you for supporting me! :)
No prob! It's awesome how you answer a lot of the comments on here, I don't see that very often.
You should do more videos like this one. Showing the shading in real time really helps. To do the actual drawings, at least in my case is the easy part. The shading part is where I personally get caught up. Thanks for this video.
First off, this is an incredibly beautiful and inspiring work of art. Thank you soooo much. And as far as time-lapse, I prefer real time no matter how long it takes because I try to draw along with you. That's how I learn. So if you run out of commentary music is always great, or even silence. Thank you again. This is so far above most youtube drawings !!!
I find it helpful while learning to do pencil art to watch how you draw and shade in real time. So, I'm very glad you shaded for part of the video in real time. As far as whether you need to talk the whole time or play music if you think you are running out of things to say, I think whatever you decide on that is fine. However, I don't think it is awkward at all if there are times when you are not talking for lack of anything to say. I think we are here to learn, and you are actually telling us things just by drawing even when you are not talking. Thanks for the video.
This is my first time watching your videos, but I can honestly say that they are very useful. I really liked that you showed how to shade, in real time. Some people just see the finished product of a drawing. They never know the exact time and patience that is required to get an amazing work of art. So thank you for this video!
+Nicole Gallardo Thank you Nicole :)
For amatures like me it's great help to watch real artists working in real time. Dont't feel bad if you don'have something to explain. Just watching you is perfect.
I definitely get why you use time lapse, but then again a video like this one once in a while is really helping! I always tend to think that professionals are able to achieve good results fairly more quickly because they have practiced more and know the technique so much it's almost a reflex, but it's now obvious that there's no going faster, you just have to sit there and work patiently. Thanks for this video!
+videokiaki Thank you!
You just have to sit there and work. Very good comment and it is a lesson that I have learnt which did me an enormous amount of good.
Your remark on patience really made a difference for me. I was working on some of my own stuff while watching your video, and focusing on taking things slow and being patient really improved the quality of my work. :)
It's always revealing to watch Mark's video every time I got some real obstacles in drawing. Getting rush in shadowing is always a drawback for me and I did not pay much attention to it before.
Real time is the very best! No music! Just watching is perfect and your quiet voice is just right. Thank you so much for this!
Here's my "no time lapse" series-- Four videos, not a single second of time lapse: th-cam.com/video/Oq3eS43BcPs/w-d-xo.html
Thank you Mark! I love the Zen of just watching and learning in real time!
I really appreciate you making a full length video. Shading is personally a rough spot for me. Watching you do this full video has helped me understand the process more completely. I'd say you doing a video of you shading a picture with music and you talking over technical areas would be amazing. The more I see of you shading the more I grasp it. I appreciate you and all of your videos thank you very much.
You should make a video about fixing mistakes.
More like how to spot and fix errors
Yeah
Thank you.
***** the nice side of youtube I LIKE IT
+jakejasmin jk Haha. I get what you mean
I love your videos. I use to draw and sketch all the time but somewhere along the way I got too busy and eventually lost my confidence . With your videos I am slowly building my self back up and making time for my love of art. Thank you
I used to draw 20 years ago and I’m just getting back into it... thanks for taking time to explaining out the entire process. Expertly done my friend.
Yes! The real time shading was so, so helpful! I've been shading a basic sphere along with you and it's just so interesting to see you do it. Thank-you!
+Stephanie Broder Thank you Stephanie :)
This was really good Mark, nice technique to add to your teaching toolbox.
Thanks...
Carl
skycarl Nice beard, Carl. : 3
+deathdemonist stfu u want his pines
His pines? So his pine trees?
Not only do I find it useful to see you shading your drawing, it also nice to see the drawing slowly come to life.
Mark, this is one of my favorite videos of yours! Shading, tone, and contract are so important. It was very helpful to watch it in real time and understand how long it takes and how patient you are. I think it's fine to have silence at times, so please don't feel that you have to talk the entire time. I've seen other videos where an artist draws in real time and splits an entire drawing into three or four videos with lots of silence. That works just fine for me. I appreciate your time and effort in making these videos for us! Thank you! - Esther
Ehsugai Thank you Esther :)
I think the occasional real time video is very useful, this was very interesting to see and it didnt bother me that you didnt have things to say after a bit. I feel like a learned some important things that i would have missed at full speed, primarily the speed at which i approach shading. Im going to give this slower method a try because I never have, not by choice, but by not knowing just how slow and deliberate you should be, so thanks for this.
i love and admire that mark is a cartoon and anime artist primarily but that he still studies classic art and the old masters, what a great talent and appreciator of art
I like listening to ramblings because in the process, I'm learning a lot especially when you do it in real time. My daughter and I decided to learn it together and your lessons are very helpful. Thank you so much for sharing your talents. Your works are outstanding. You inspire us to keep going. :)
+Watkins Productions Thanks so much, to you and your daughter!
I really liked this video, sincerely. Whenever I'm watching these kinds of videos, I try to catch the moment when the bunch of lines turns into a "real" person or thing. It's almost magic when the drawing starts to "live". I've struggled with some realistic portraits so far and I know how much time and effort does the shading take, even if it's as far from perfection as mine. The video gave me (or rather reminded me - I've looked through numerous shading tutorials so far) some useful information. But most importantly - it reminded me to be patient with all this. I'm aware that impatience is one of my biggest faults while drawing...
Youre right theres not much you can say but it really helps just being able observe you go through the long process. Helps me bring a greater detail to my drawings when I can watch you do it in real time so I can see your hand techniques and how you place your lines. Ive always had trouble with shading large areas like faces in a realistic style
Hey, Mark. Slowing the video down to understand how you shade properly certainly helps. When I shade, I typically try to go too fast(I get a little too excited about seeing the end result, heheh..). I have paced myself on a few drawings and had some very nice end results, but now I feel more motivated to slow myself down and spend hours on shading to get that proper gradation from light to dark. Tedious process, but the way you've built upon the previous layers looks stunning. Thanks for taking the time to show us! Awesome video as always!
AdoptAPuppyToday Thank you, glad I can help :)
As far as I'm concerned the Pieta is the most beautiful piece of art ever created. Even your version is so beautiful it's like you're touching a living face.
I also honestly like to watch the whole process in real time. Every stroke is interesting.
You truly are gifted at making these videos. Expertly taught and always amusing. Thanks!
It is really helpful to see it in real time, plus you make me laugh! I am the most impatient person EVER, and seeing how patiently you shade makes me want to keep taking deep breaths and shading lightly! Thank you !
I really find useful to watch you doing this long and tedious job. And yes, I like the fact that you use the music for the latter part of the video when you've run out of things to say.
Mario Magnanini Thank you; I may try it again sometime :)
markcrilley I think it was a pretty nice thing
i don't know but probably you could do some "long" video's with at the start you could sai (after the drawing edited into the video) on whitch parts of the video you say somthing and what happens during the video
as an exemple: a 4 houre video (probably 2 or 3 parts if youtube stops you on this durations) and say at the start somthing like: "the first 1.5 houres are sketching/linework* a special comment about that thematic is at the 27th minute
on this way people who don't want to see the sketching/basic lineart will just skip that part and go to the one they're interested in
even if there is just music i think every artist who relly want to get better will watch you carefully how you're doing it so they could notice things like how you hold your pencil without commentary
and if they want to hear the *special advice* they'll klick to the place where you said it, and if they're interested to watch you doing that stuff they will skip to / watch that part again
@ Mario... do you also like to watch paint dry ?
Yes - real time is great and never boring in the least. Thanks so much for your videos!
I've watched a lot of shading videos, and i just had to say, this one really helped me. Thanks for the great video.
This is so useful for someone who's always watched either sped up tutorials or finished products and always feels inadequate when trying to shade themselves!
Watching the shading process is extremely valuable!, Thank you
I really enjoyed your video and the fact that it was mostly real time. There are parts you could definitely speed up but all the information you came up with while at certain stages throughout the process was really good advice. It's more like a lecture in a classroom when you get to watch it real time and you get to match up the info with each step as you go. I like the way you did this video. Time lapse when you don't have anything to say and real time when you do. In any case, great work!
It was very comforting to hear your description of the shading process. Thank you!
I could watch you draw all day Mark. very therapeutic. Thank-you! :)
I appreciate the real time and the advice to move slowly because I saw details that I may not have caught had you moved faster. I realize that moving slower really does allow you more time to investigate, explore, and do some guess work in order to produce as many shades of gray as possible rather than just the dark darks and the light lights.
Hi Mark :) I've been quietly watching your how to draw videos for a while after discovering a love for sketching last year. Just wanna say a big THANK you for the advice you give, you have really helped me make some progress. Loved watching the shading done in real time as well btw. Fantastic artist!
Thank you so much for this video! It has helped me a lot and I'm definitely going to refer back to it when needed. I'm glad you decided to show us the process, love this drawing!
***** Thank you Amy, you're very kind
Yes, Mark it helps to see the whole processes of shading! I love your videos, and I recommend them at least once a week to the other art students in my various art classes.
Crystal Cameron Thank you Crystal ^^
I do appreciate you showing shading in real time and changing to music is fine :) thank you!
Thank you so much for this video, it made me see how impatient I have been in the past with drawing and that is why my drawings have never been as good or "finished" looking as they could have been. This is the best video I have found on shading. Most of the other videos I've seen rely on blending tools and I don't use them, so for me this video is perfect. Thank you.
Great! Blank paper, real time, time lapse combinations work perfectly. Soooooo much to learn, thank you for sharing, Mark.
You do a fabulous job demonstrating you art talent. You shade well and get your points across well. Good job!
+Judy McElwee Thank you Judy :)
Watching shading techniques second my second helps me understand how to achieve natural looking shadows. So yeah, Mark... I would really like to see more of these videos once in a while in your channel.
Oh, and don't worry about talking... if you don't have anything to say, music will do :) Don't worry Mark, don't feel forced to narrate every little thing you do.
Mark, I've got to say that when I found you around 6 years ago, I was 12 and just started getting serious about drawing. And at the time I was one of those people that always said "why do you skip through the shading?". The need to add blushies hadn't started yet and you used to say 'indicate' a million times per video (I sort of miss it actually)
Though I'll say that since then you've improved the quality of illustration that you produce in the videos.
I was clueless and intimidated not so much on how to shade, but where to shade. And though this video is very useful in seeing how to shade and how long it takes, you didn't really cover where to shade, though I understand that you were using photo reference of the sculpture and thats how you knew where to shade.
However, I was at that stage 6 years ago. And over the years I can almost say I've outgrown a good amount of the videos you put out, though I still watch them. For example, that 'where to shade' video that I would have so desperately loved to see from you back then I don't feel I strictly need anymore, and I even understand how it would be difficult to teach (perhaps something on light sources instead?)
I like this format of breaking your usual thing to put focus on one aspect of illustration thats not necessarily "how to draw this specific thing start to finish"
As a more advanced artist, I find these videos that aren't so start to finish and that give tips on methods more useful. But I do know that you have loads of beginner viewers, much like I was myself when I first found you. So you can keep at what you're doing but throwing in one of these videos in once in a while, I would find it useful.
Cantrona Thanks for the time you put into this detailed feedback!
i could watch you shade the whole day Mark!!! It's not only awesome but very satisfying as well :)
I mean this in the least creepy way possible; I enjoy listening to your voice, even if you don't have anything 'useful' or 'insightful' to say, haha This format of video was a nice change and watching the slow build-up of shading is actually very calming ^_^ Old man timelapse is allowed of course, but he'll get tired if he's working all the time, right?
So much is learnt by watching this type of video. Like what is the thought processes and how do you get from this point to the next,as well how much time and concentration it truly takes. This is what it takes to become better and better at art or whatever is important in life. Thank you for sharing, even though it feels uncomfortable.
the original sculpture, i think is one of the best that's ever been created by a human, and your shading values are so well balanced, hard not to love this video. M-A himself would be proud. Cheers
Hi Mark, I am just beginning to draw and have learned a lot from your videos. So YES the least time lapse the better. thanks for teaching us.
Love it. Good to see the shading in real time,been a great help,understanding the time value. I like seeing the very beginning of the drawing. As well as the shading
Thanks for sharing on shading! Don't let anyone change how you are doing things. I appreciate your work & I love the sound of your voice, I'm learning from you. (I once allowed someone's comments to make me stop drawing.) Thanks again Mark!
I enjoy real time videos. It shows the effort and creatively needed to become polished and skilled as yourself.
Incredible... I was mesmerised from start finish, thank you xx
Thank you so much for taking the time to do a video like this! I really appreciate it when you explain things like you do, even if you think your rambling I find everything you say very useful. I love your drawings and I find it amazing how much you can do. Thank you again for doing what you do!
I find these videos incredibly helpful! I've been watching your youtube videos since the very beginning and I absolutely love them. I'm not a fan of time lapse, personally, because during the time lapse I can't really tell what you're doing as well and I miss stuff. So, to see the videos without time lapse is super helpful to me.
Finally someone taught me how to shade properly!! I've drawing for 6 months and I just couldn't get it. Thank you :D :D :D now my homework won't look like a bunch of crappy lines
This Really helped me grasp the concept of the time it takes to shade. I am really impatient and i want to draw an amazing picture fast but this video has taught me you just can't speed things up. Next time i draw i am going to take my time, if it takes days to complete, so be it. A great drawing is worth the time.
moonlit sakura1 Thank you, glad I can help!
This has been "very helpful",shading step by step is what I need right now.Thank you!
Fantastic video. I wasn't bored at all. I know for your success to continue you must appeal to the mainstream which is a quick-and-easy, "snap snap!" audience but shading is a delicate process which must be given its due time and respect.
You are a brilliant artist, thank you for sharing your knowledge.
This was a very good learning tool for me. I enjoyed this format of starting with a already drawn figure and doing it in real time.
One of my fave sculptures. Saw it in-person about 11 years ago -- so beautiful!
I enjoy listening to you, even if it isn't about the piece you are drawing. I know you probably get frustrated at what to say, but maybe you could tell some fun stories about things you've experienced during the 'tedious' times. Teachers don't always stay on task, but talk to their students about their lives or things they've been through, be it art related or not. Thanks for a great video on shading. Helps me to remember not to rush.
The balance between time-lapse and real time was perfect, thanks.
So after watching your amazing channel and learning so much from you, I've just ordered your book Mastering Manga and can't wait to learn even more. Amazon can't ship fast enough!
Steve Spence Thank you Steve!
markcrilley you have been my motivation to draw more because of my depression, im so unmotivated to even doodle ive lost interest in a lot of things i used to love but watching your videos makes me get up and draw so thank you for that :D
hey don't get so down. I've been there too and I know how hard depression is to handle. it's best to not think about what's causing it and focus on the positives in your life. it might be tough now but it will heal over eventually if you just believe and stay calm and collected.
Mark, this was great. I like seeing how shading is actually done. Looking at the time lapses was also very helpful. I think you have a winner format here.
Ron
This video was good. Your idea of a balanced combination of drawing at normal speed, with comentairy, (to explain a key points) then speed draw with music is interesting.
Mark..I like you you're nice. Teached me some valuable stuff over the last few months.
I learned so much about the patience of shading.
Great tutorial on shading such a complex and exquisite piece of art as this famous... sculptura. Thank you very much!
Thank you so very much. I have a real problem with shading and this is so so so helpful. Excellent. Love to hear you talk and explain as you go.
I love your slower videos cause they're really relaxing, but your talking is good because if you just had music I probably would have fallen asleep :P. Love the drawing! when you say "real soon" at the end, it always reminds me Almonzo from little house.
Great video!Fantastic instruction by example. Please continue doing real time videos. Dont worry about what to say, your art is entertaining by itself. Thanks!
you are a modern master.
Thanks for this video Mark. As a beginner it's tough to judge how much time to put into a piece. Speed drawing or painting is tough to learn from. Gained a lot of insight from this one!
Well this has been the best day of learning that I have had the pleasure of experiencing .EVER! I thank you for all of your tips and patience. It feels as though you were speaking to me directly which made learning better ..Many thanks
Thank you so much!
I love this video! It is the perfect timing, I am taking a short drawing class, and yesterday we started shading. This was very helpful. I realized I just need to slow down. I am also working on mindfulness, this is great for that, also very relaxing. I did like the way you divided the video.
Honestly, I do find it a lot more helpful to see it "second by second, minute by minute" because I am one of those people who learn by having things broken down into crayon. Shading has always been a difficult task for me but I watched your video about drawing Baymax 3 weeks ago and I followed along and I feel I did an excellent job with it, especially the shading because that pretty much makes the entire drawing. I've learned to draw a good bit from your videos and I want to thank you for that. Great video and I can't wait to see what you do in the future! ^-^ Oh also, I like the music idea.
I loved to see how much patience is involved in a great piece of art. As a newbie, I find I am in too much of a hurry to get to what I call the "fun" part.
To me we need more videos in real time. When learning it's very important to see everything step by step. I enjoy just watching it all take place.
Here's my "no time lapse" series-- Four videos, not a single second of time lapse: th-cam.com/video/Oq3eS43BcPs/w-d-xo.html
