Can this art course also be of help for traditional new artists as well? So, I'm not exactly starting at 0 since i use to draw hideous pieces back in art class in HS (i just have absouletly no structure,practice,or full basic knowledge of art theory) I'm now 27 but all i've seen from reviewers is this is worth the value, but what if i decide to follow along with pencil/pen until i feel satisfied in my sketches to where i'm able to buy the desired tablet/ipad to return to complete the related terms. How many terms do you think can i complete/grasp in before investing in one? or would it be wiser to just start drawing digitally without paper knowledge/EXP.

Good stuff, the fox at 24 minutes has human style legs instead of digi legs like an actual fox. Other than that looks awesome

Very inspiring video! You for sure improved a lot! Do you have any tips for the rendering proces of a piece? It's something I keep struggling with because I feel like after I'm done it still feels very flat

In conclusion no you did not improve to become a professional, but just an entry ticket to become normal as starting artist. You got a long way to go, but realistically, you are not going to reach in concept art industry since there are younger people better than you. Sad but true

I would pay for something similar. I just don't need anything drawn.

This is an incredible commitment

I m going through the monthly challenge right now. Decided to learn to draw as an absolute noob after turning 27. Hopefully i can be a good character artist someday for a video game or a cool super hero comic. Is 27 too late now. I really don't know but hopefully it's not.

👍

Your progress is very inspiring. For professional work I'd say you probably need one more year and you're good to go. You achieved a lot and can be proud of yourself! Good job!

Tl;dr, have fun. If you aren't having fun doing it, do something else. They say you can only eat an elephant one bite at a time, and this is true for art as well. There's a mountain of information that needs to be introduced, understood, and mastered, and then turned into intuition if you want to become a master at art, but a beginner is not a master. A beginner is a beginner. They are a toddler trying to race as fast as usaine bolt because of the sheer idea (or sense of obligation) that it MUST be done before you can even call yourself an artist. In my opinion, art is a series of questions that the art piece asks you, and then you, the artist, have to answer them. How long do I draw this line, how does this curve match my reference, how do I draw a circle, how do I draw a skull, how does the light bounce off my subject are just a few of the questions you'll be asked. However, if you cannot ask yourself why you're learning to draw and say you either want to enrich your life by learning a skill of self-expression or to have fun, you should stop immediately. (This is assuming you don't want to make it a career. That requires a whole other set of skills.) Learning to draw is not something that society inherently encourages people to do. It is much better (because it is more profitable) to be able to perform basic arithmetic, draft papers, give public speeches, test taking skills, learn how to study texts to then regurgitate the information on a test later, etc. If you go into pursuing art because you feel some moralistic obligation ("I HAVE to learn it because x"), ask yourself if the relationship you have with art is healthy or if it is an extension of some grander way you perceive your relationship of how you express yourself as a whole. I say this, because I hate seeing people who constantly whine and complain over their art, talking about how horrible it is and how they perceive themselves, or how they look at art years down the line as a monster of their own creation instead of a fun little thing to do when they're bored now that they're so knee-deep in it. And if drawing doesn't work for you, don't fret. There are so many different mediums (calligraphy, pixel art, painting, iconography, etc.) and so many different forms of expression (dance, music, etc.), and unless you wish to publicly share the prowess you specifically achieved with any of them as a means to show your expertise (or lack thereof like those shitty art accounts made as a parody), it should only matter to YOU how deeply you wish to learn and master the concepts.

To be honest, I don't consider myself talented, so in my mind I'm worried it may take me longer than 2 years (I said "longer" than 2 years, not in 2 years) to feel like I'm finally getting good enough to start earning money even if I see someone else getting there faster. And this is coming from someone who actually have the art school course too from Marc. Hack, some part of me even worry that I'll never get good even if I practice everysingle day. That being said, I still like seeing others getting there in just 1 year though, even if I don't consider myself talented, even if I'm abit concerned that it might take me triple the amount of time to get to that point, it's still encouraging to see that being possible for other people, on the plus side that does mean I won't disappoint myself it I don't get good in 2 years, though I am scared as of right now because of it. Since I'm pretty new, hopefully I can get good, in 2 years if not 1 just like how I was recommended to draw for 2 years. Hopefully, lol XD

And if I am an animalist the process of learning will be same?

A lot of this stuff can be applied to more than just art. I've found myself using a lot of what you said when learning blender and Japanese, and I'm using them to great effect as I start my art journey. I hope everyone can understand the value of your advice and be able to use it for every venture in their life

I would definitely hire you for commission work. I don't know anything about game studio work but your style definitely would have an appeal to the right company. Keep going 🦅🔥💥💥💥💥☢️

Wow, bro! Your art progress is incredible! You should be really proud of your work. Keep it up, you're definitely on the right track!

what do you use to draw on?

My biggest problem in drawing is not even a burnout or motivation or etc. but seeing other people doing a day 1 drawing better then i am after like 5 months... which really hurts :/ i draw alot and started this year since january and if i compare myself (i know its not good but everyone does...) to your video of the year I just feel bad for myself seeing someone do so much better even do i really try my best and cant even do shit no matter how hard i try.. its just annoying. still like your Videos <3

Don't forget to share your tips and techniques under this comment

5:20 i am indeed drawing right now

a Koleen diss, u love see it

my boy really went from Noob to Teacher in a Year

I mean I think if you burn yourself out by drawing everyday. You're probably not cut out to be an artist. Because I can literally draw for like 10 hours and not feel tired because I love doing it. People struggle might just not be that into it

What is the app your are using to draw?

Great video and tips keep it going! Also a tip to prevent burnout is to draw something you enjoy drawing (similar to a tip you talked about but this one goes a bit into why you should draw what you like), if you want to draw characters then don't feel like it because it isn't what it seemed at first just move to another thing, art really has a lot of things to offer and checking some of those things out won't do bad, whether it's landscape drawing, characters or portraits, there are so many things and if you draw something you don't like drawing but you want to draw because you feel the need to it (whether if it's because you want to draw the same stuff as your favorite artist or you're just afriad to draw the thing you love to draw) you'll burnout, I see lots of difference between wanting something and liking something.

Bro this is the perfect tutorial for me although I will forget all these tips anyway I still won't know how to draw I was supposed to do the annual challenge this year but I didn't want to do so much guesture 😢

I loved seeing your progress. I'd love to see your progress after two years. I think you should also work on coloring, because good coloring also makes your work more professional.

Honestly thinking about doing it. I'm not a complete beginner but I certainly could use a little bit of finetuning, especially when it comes to proportions. Your Review looks promissing.

"this is my last furry drawing" *also draws **6:55*

You deserved a sub! ♥️ Keep it up bro! The only one thing that i want to you is please learn more about foreshortening because this concept was actually good! What if, you use foreshortening instead? It'll be look more "Action" vibes 😎

I have no motivation anymore....im 35and i did Music and painting my whole life now with social media and AI i lost all drive and motivation 😢😢😢😢😢

Great video! I just subscribed! I'm learning how to draw faces with accurate proportions. It's a lot harder than I thought it would be lol 😆 But I'm making good progress!

Great progress in just a year, looking forward to where you will be at by next year :)

I always laugh when peoples before art is better than my current art in these kinds of videos. Having said that. Keep up the hard work. It's clearly paying off. Doing great.

awesome improvement. I recommend focusing on stuff like shape design and values to get your art to the next level. Marc is a great artist but I find that youtubers like sinix design are much better teachers. watch every single sinix video. you will learn so many things about design you didn't even know you needed to learn.

Can you learn to draw in a lifetime?

hello I'm a fellow artist who did something similar, and i see you have made a lot of progress. but i do still see you have a lot to improve on, i think i know i study that can help you a lottt, it has been the most helpful thing iv ever done. i cant explain it completely to you, but i can tell you whare to find it. on schoolism if you go to nathen falxes he has a course on color and light, when waching his videos he talks about a 1h daily study of making a color master copy of an illustration. if you go learn about that and put it to practice, i think you would improve a lot. but if you want me to point to a fundamental to study, go for value and color. study soft edges and hard edges. and how to better control your values. also learn how to paint in light with harder brushes, you don't need to always paint light with one but, i can see an overuse of the soft round brush. try learning how to paint with hard round brush. turn down the brushes flow and use pressure sensitivity to control opacity. having that skill in your pocket can make you a more versatile artist. you don't have to do these things, this is just what i think would help you the most, and this is coming from someone who dose not know you or know whare you want to go.

You've definitely improved alot. Im on a similiar journey and like you said to get better you gotta make some sacrifices. I tried growing my social media presence as i started drawing seriously but i find that to be bad for improving myself. Seeing how much you've drawn in a year motivates me to draw more. Im drawing everyday but not nearly enough. Though two things i can confidently say that I've improved in since last year would be drawing faces and hands. And my line quality has gotten significantly better as well. And like yourself im looking forward to learning more anatomy this year. And perspective as well. So good luck on your journey. 🙌

There is clear progress. Though I personally think those monthly goals are overly ambitious. Fundamentals like making a mannequin out of simple shapes is something that you can see significant improvement in even if you practice efficiently for years. And certain skills build upon others, I personally don't see much point in dabbling with colour if the understanding of values is lacking.

Foreshortening will come with practice, use lots of references and if you can real life references

Love you bringing us along on your journey. You got so much better and inspire me to continue grinding. Thanks.

Great video mate, i was supossed to start this challenge 1 january last year, but im so lazy lol, gonna start now.

Great progress! and not gonna lie all of your worries will forever remain like that. Even my art teacher still feel that his art "sucks" even tho he worked for alot of triple A compagnies for concept art and illustration so yeah we just gotta find out how to cope with it and not let it give us art block ^^

Non artist take here, do with it what you will: There's definitely improvement, and the final illustration improved a lot as you worked on it, but I still wouldn't say it looks professional yet. Something that really impresses me about pro artists is that they have a very clear understanding of things that aren't being drawn, like the muscles under the skin, the way details would look from a diferent angle, etc. I think that's missing here - bandages look a bit like just a texture, with the torso looking mismatched to the arm and face, and the fennec fox kept having its joints bent backwards, the poor thing. So idk, maybe try thinking about what isn't visible, and even drawing the motions that would come before and after a pose to undestand it better. Anatomy is a big thing and seems like half the battle when it comes to characters. It will probably improve your stuff a ton. Looks like you struggle with depth on detail and perspective as well, which kinda ties into imagining the object instead of the drawing itself that I described earlier. I didn't see you draw the same thing from more than one angle in this video, which might explain it. The last point I'm not sure about because I can't tell what issue I see with it, but the way you colour things is very common among beginner artists who put some unflattering stuff out there. Not the colours themselves, more so the technique or something. Can't say anything more specific sadly.

What ai app did you use to get feedback? I haven’t seen this done before, could be very useful.

Oh! hello there ! looks like we are in the same boat. Nice to meet you.👋

Alright my turn to grind😂

@pewdiepie

This was awesome and super inspiring. I have creative shell shock with this. There's a ton of stuff I like to do. I love to write, read, play music, sing draw, etc... so I bounce frenetically between these things week over week. I'm alright at all of them, but I'm not particularly great at any (except writing if I can be a bit self aggrandizing, I do it for a living) and it's likely because I don't have the requisite discipline you do to sit there and commit to studying and practicing it. A lot of things have come easy for me and the downside is that I have practically no capacity for arduous grinding. Despite this, I'm always drawing. I subconsciously do it all the time. On napkins at a restaurant, deposit slips at the bank, sketchbooks in traffic, you name it. I think it's time I listened to my brain and commit to this process. Thanks for the inspiration, I'm gonna ride this ephemeral inspo as far as it'll take me and hopefully break this plateau I keep crashing into.

My first time on your channel and loved this video. You have improved so much, i loved the rendering in the final piece. I saved the challenge to do it back then but never started. Now im so inspired to start it.
