A big thanks to Evgeniy Evstratiy for sharing his knowledge on character design! For more on the topic check out this design lesson - th-cam.com/video/CjiKlLE3NuI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=JWcuQqzqacvnX1NV
I would like if there was a course from Evgeniy Evstratiy teaching character design as I like taking more depth into it and watch him while he is drawing. if it's possible , this would be perfect.
Taking Notes: Visual Mix: Combing objects, elements, creatures What if: What would happen if something happened in some environment Reverse Approach: Rather than adding or combining, what would happen if something was removed? Scale experiments: Changing the scale of everyday objects/creatures Influence of Environment: How can it change a setting or character? Genre fusion: Genres, styles, setting, and fuse them Anachronisms: Historical period and put something that doesn’t belong, or set another path Thank you so much for the idea component, it really makes a difference in immersing a character into a story, definitely adding much more depth. This video is such a gem.
This video is INCREDIBLY informational and is the best character design tutorial I've ever watched! I hope to make a game one day so I'll carry this knowledge with me and make it work with my creativity. Ev's art is incredible and his style is great!
This is amazing, one of the best Proko videos I've ever seen! Evgenyi gives so much much information in such a concise manner. Very impressive, thank you. This is so good, I'm going to have to watch it several times because of all the valuable information. Please see if he can be an instructor on your site, it would be much appreciated. I'd definitely get a course instructed by him.
Lol, before I clicked this video, I wondered how Genshin Impact's character designs are so good that they make people keep pulling for them. Thank you, I hope this video can help me in studying character designs.
The fantastic editing of this channel compliments the fantastic knowledge being provided in these videos, there's never been a better time to be a hungry artist looking for inspiration to elevate their tool set!
1:13 bro you just gotta love the pronouciation of the "The Evil Wizhin" Also 2:20 SCAVENGER'S REIGN MENTIONED LETSGOOOOOOOO"!@"!!!!"!!!!!! WTF IS A SECOND SEASON CONFIRMED???!!?!?? 💀💀💀💀😭😭😭
I would be interested to see if a recognizable silhouette still applies to characters that are lesser known. Kind of like playing "who's that Pokemon" while only knowing Gen 1, you know? Feraligator might be recognizable... Once you know him.
Knowing who the characters already are does a lot. But with good design, you can already have a pretty solid chance at guessing a lot about characters from just their silhouettes. You definitely won't go "THAT'S ELECTABUZZ" if you don't know them. You'd be a psychic to know their name lol But you can infer so much from that classic Electabuzz pose in a silhouette.
my biggest issue when trying to make characters is getting the pose down. I have been working years as turnaround artist or clothes designes that trying to make characters stand in interesting poses has become issue for me
Should I design the outfit with the same shape language of the character or have it represent the current state of mind? I know characters that swap outfits often while still being recognizable
I have insane amount of chaos in the way i gather references and it's clear that I fucked it up as well. Still the hardest part for me to categorize them.
Could you tell us which program or app you used for moodboarding?? (Not Pinterest but the 2 different ones that seem to appear in the video) I use an iPad pro but sometimes it's hard to do a moodboard and that one you group things looked amazing
If you're using Procreate, you can create a reference layer. It's a pretty handy feature they include that won't even show up in your process replay. In this, though, he's using PureRef.
Hello, this was very helpful, and it would be great if you had a TH-cam channel where you could share your excellent content in videos. In any case, this helped me a lot, and I am immensely grateful to you.
When explain about char design what if a combine b + c . Is LoL char Braum from your student idea? 😂 What if my teacher + Mucle body + Big Shield . Thankyou for explanation Proko + Evgeniy

Thank you Stan for the opportunity and I hope this information is helpful to the audience!
Thank *you* for sharing all this knowledge in such a helpful, direct and concise format, good sir!!
Very good concise video! Loved it.
didnt know braum was an actually reallife human lul
This was incredibly helpful. I'm wanting to design my own comic book superhero, so I will definitely keep this video in my favorites for reference.
Thank you so much 😇

Evgeniy is crazy good artist, both his ideas and shape design
We couldn't agree more!
Yeah I’m looking him up, his shapes and control of light are 🤌
No time wasted, many topics covered, clear examples. This may be the best vid on art I've ever seen. I'll be coming back to study it for awhile.
Thanks!
One of the best designs videos here. Short, simple, and with lots of examples.
Glad it was helpful!
This quite literally posted the second I needed it. You guys never cease to amaze with your impeccable timing!
Perfect! Glad it helps!
I was just going to say this!
Same lol
The "idea" part of the video is incredible, it's impossible for me to create characters and that part has made me think a lot
In impossible if u not creative ...
This was a genuine masterclass in character design. Not a second wasted, no fat to trim, just constantly good information. Thanks!

So much fantastic information jam packed into a relatively short video. Amazing stuff. Get designing chums!!
Incredible video! I think this can apply to all sorts of designs, not just characters.

Your game or Wild West idea is really good. I would play/watch if you made it irl!!
Thanks man.. your "chicago bulls like" beard style is as best as your craft. Kindly continue inspiring us..

This is an important lesson in character design, right here. What people see immediately is what they'll assume.

This was a good video. Saved it in my playlist.

We hope it can happen!
Very informative! Thank you very much 🎉
Thank you Braum!
your mustache is so magnificent... woah... im entranced by it... reminds me of my European uncle

I need that hand model behind him on his desk!! 😭 Been looking for something other than the standard wooden hands for agesss
That's the Kotobukiya artist support item hand. It's a great one and well worth it.
I didn’t know Bronson teaches art 😂
Exactly!! 😅
Btw, can someone tell what software does Evgeniy use for his moodboard? It looks very handy and simple at the same time
its pureref, a free amazing software to organize references
@@eduvcruz many thanks!
The The Rock of Art!
Amazing video!!!
Thank you so much for this ❤❤❤❤
Excellent Video 👏👏👏
1:45 What if... I were to purchase fast food and disguise it as my own cooking?
If it's just for you, hell yeah you cooked that Big Mac!
But if you go to sell something, you'll have to put some more work into it than that.
@@ProkoTV To be cleair this is not my idea, is from a Principal
@@luigispadaccini140 Seymour's steamed hams are one of our favorite New York delicacies, for sure!
Thanks Bronson and Proko
I KNEW someone else would say what I was thinking!! 😅
He is the real life Braum omg
my biggest issue when trying to make characters is getting the pose down. I have been working years as turnaround artist or clothes designes that trying to make characters stand in interesting poses has become issue for me
Will there be courses from him in the future? I would love to learn more about character design from him:)
We'd love that! That's up to him and what his availability is.
This is a really good video
This is amazing thank you
good video ty
Glad you enjoyed it
i love your mustache
Us too!
Well done 👏
....sketch and refine, Refine, REFINE.
This is some useful knowledge being shared by Proko. I also have this urge to watch the film "Bronson", starring Tom Hardy for some reason?
thank you! now I can understand better ;)
Great work
can our amazing artist also teach us how to grow such an amazing moustache?
We'll talk to him about doing a course on it. 😂
You look like an villain who would be adjusting their moustache and top hat while doing an monologue to the captured protagonist
OR a good guy like Armstrong in Fullmetal Alchemist! haha Not just a bad guy 🤣
damn, that is gold!
1:12 The evil within is SUCH an underrated series! Too bad the company shut down by Microsoft
agree :(
Should I design the outfit with the same shape language of the character or have it represent the current state of mind?
I know characters that swap outfits often while still being recognizable
Thank you so much

No offense to great artist Evgeniy, but I am so glad subtitles are available.

Suspeita de sotaque brasileiro, belo vídeo meu nobre, fiquei de xereca com todo esse conhecimento desbalanceado
