Art Improvement Montage (You're Not Working Hard Enough!)

SUBSCRIBE ► kzbin.info?su...
PREVIOUS VIDEO ► • Video
Its pretty hard to improve overnight and after many days of practice you don’t feel like much is changing until you look back at what you drew before. I used to always make excuses to practice some other day because I wasn’t in the mood too or something was bothering me. Don’t delay because the days add up. 4 years from now I am not going to remember the day I was upset about something or the day I missed out on a chance to improve because I was in a bad mood. The only thing I will see is the improvement from grinding it out every single day. If not now...then when?

Practice alone isn't enough. It's *how* you spend that time and the quality of the resources you are learning from. It would be interesting to see a video where you explain what your study/practice routine has been like the last few years. Did you have a plan, Did you take classes? The David Finch video courses seem like a good bet.

[@ZHCYT]

sure thing. I can answer that in a video because i have a lot to say

[@Bruno-oe8lt]

ZHC yep thatd be a great idea for a video. I believe that drawing without purpose isnt gonna get u anywhere, so id like to see how u made that time spent quality time!

[@derekofbaltimore]

Mike Emeritz Agreed 100. If you just keep doing the same thing then your actual skills won't increase much but if you practice with deliberate goals then you can EXPAND your skills

[@Yoni123]

Link to that video?

[@BAwesomeDesign]

He did say he was "looking at his favorite artists" during his improvement phase (in the video). I'm coming to realize just how important "input" is and how relatively unimportant "academics" are when learning something like language or art. Babies don't need to diagram sentences, yet they learn language just fine by being mimics. Studying your favorite artist's style and mimicking it can be the best way to learn.... and it will seem natural.

It's so true but so many people want to ignore that fact. I did the same thing, drawing daily 6-12 hours a day not missing a day. It took me 4-5 years to get to where I wanted to be.

[@haydengoodman9525]

I've been drawing constantly since i was a 1 year old (28 now) and would sit there with a stack of print paper just filling sheets up with drawings as one of my favourite pastimes. The amount of progress that you made between 2015 and 2016 is freakish to me. I went from A to B like that over probably a decade, every time you improve it feels like cracking a code and understanding perspective and shadows and all that jazz in a more refined way, and climbing onto a new plateau, and it looks like you broke like 50 plateaus and went from B grade highchool art to comic industry level in a mind-boggling amount of time.

[@kecukritiques2943]

Yeah, your attitude lost me at: "but I'll guarantee you they did not work as hard as me to get to where I am today". You can't call out people for being dumb for doubting your skill, while then simultaneously doubting their own experiences. If it's one thing I've learnt about art in all my years of drawing, education and working alongside other artists, is that it's entirely unique to every individual. And being humble in acknowledging this is something that gives you much greater insight into other peoples' works, efforts and potential. Two people could put in an identical routine for an identical amount of time, with completely different results. You have to see it from this point of view: if Person A does something and gets amazing results, but then Person B does the exact same thing and gets nothing from it, Person B is bound to call BS, or feel disadvantaged to some extent. That's just something you have to expect when sharing your own path of improvement, be it in any field. And the last thing those critics need is someone just telling them "well you're not working as hard as me".

[@BustedBattery]

woah

[@StudioSamSmith]

Kecu Kritiques it’s so self-important , isn’t it - ‘I worked the hardest’, look at me and how great I am. Fucking bullshit. This guy has no concept that he might have a far better support network to allow him to do this (emotional or material) . This is through no doing of his own, but he’ll happily take the credit. His work is pretty boring and lacks spirit if you ask me. There’s a billion other artists out there doing the same stuff but a lot better . I don’t see the point in this kind of work, myself

Me going through my old art: Rips it into pieces like a maniac, burns it and destroys the ashes. ZHC going through his old art: Shows it to everybody without showing any embarrassment at all. Let's just take a second to admire his courage and improvement👏🏻

[@sumsang1221]

There’s always room for improvement no matter how good u are

[@imbored4615]

You may have to add the fact that most of the recent artworks had some references. You drew them looking up other images while probably in the older pieces you didn't: that's a cause of why the first drawings are so amateurish. I'm not saying that you copied someone else, in fact the improvement it's very real, but having a reference for the details really helps. Maybe you even just came up with all these drawings without looking up anything, I dunno. Still, it's very good, I started drawing 5 years ago and I'm still not quite at your level

[@ZHCYT]

Most of these are just straight out of my head haha i used reference for maybe the first year or two and stopped after that. But reference is indeed a great learning tool

[@XxArtzxGoddessxX]

Don't tell someone to not use references! All good artists use reference until they are extremely comfortable drawing the subject matter from their head, and some might always continue to use references anyway. And by reference I mean using a picture to make sure you're getting the correct body proportions and pose. Don't draw from other people's art work.

[@imbored4615]

I did no tell anyone to not use references mate

[@jaytamayo4694]

Seeing this again should help us to push ourselves to be better artist or at least "drawers", huh?!?!? XD amazing improvement.

[@ZHCYT]

sweeet

[@malakai_adam]

So good to hear someone mirror my story, looking forward to my insane gains. Only 4 months into my own reboot. Also yeah you should totally put that comic into our hands one way or another bro.

[@sophandmackshowbandb8208]

I remember when we had a class assignment about drawing hominids into super hero's I drew the flash as a hominid and mine was the best out of the entire class and I honestly didn't like my picture but everyone liked it

[@gigithebird2151]

8:50 that’s a cool pose and all, but I would be shocked if someone put their hand in that position
