[@keo_chu]

I'm studying this book where he breaks down anatomy into simple shapes and rly go into details with every part. I had no problem with the perspective and form since it was the first thing I invested my time learning but the part I was struggling most was how to actually pose the mannequin and apply all the simplified muscles because they always end up being stiff. This video rly rly rly made some things clear for me! I can't believe I get to see this for free😭 thanks!

[@sandwich3044]

What was the book called? I'd love to add another to my bookcase.

[@SyaminiKaushik]

Posing in perspective. Step 1: use a 3D software. Step 2: Be a 3D software.

[@hyphendash5815]

you must be first 2d artist then 3d .

[@longjourney3027]

you are just cheating if you use a 3d software to pose a character

[@blackoutgenez]

Long journey oh so its cheating to use references

[@hyphendash5815]

you can transfer emotion with 2d art but not with 3d.3d is good for clean and ocure and fast resualt .

[@postmodernerkindergartner960]

So by your logic people who draw 3D mannequins in 2D beforehand, like shown in this tutorial, end up with emotionless and stiff drawings? What utter nonsense.

[@tacticslc4805]

It's been like 10 years since the last season. We want more episodes now.

[@MyDrawingTips]

Fantastic channel and tuto James! Thanks

[@goodguybuy7961]

love the orange and blue pen colors. so simple yet really sleek id also like to point out that i feel you should incorporate some light music in these tutorials. so that these moments: 3:28 dont seem so awkward.

[@alishakhan5469]

it appears as a math class😅

[@drawforge9640]

That's exactly what kjg said in one of his streams

[@greyhameavandhat1220]

secretr is out : best artists are in fact mathematicians too

[@samucaeosmano9207]

Prob the best video I’ve seen about perspective and body figures

[@bruceymako]

wow. no wonder why a lot of people are not getting better in their art as they expected from watching other tutorials that were seems "easier". its not just about drawing more, its such a complex study, and the basics looks like this(?) damn its hard

[@Blacklipstikkz]

How is this hard this is like the easiest part now try wrapping your head around organic shapes in perspective I'm still trying to learn that I can sketch vehicles in perspective humans but I can't draw cool poses yet but anyway it should take about 15 years to get really good at any form of art I come from a family of artist my grandpa is a industrial designer my dad does drumming and poetry and writing my mom a painter and my mom's dad is an engineer but also does like the technical drawings and I asked them like how long it took for them to get god my dad told that it took him 20 years to master poetry

[@IntricateDolphin]

the thought of drawing maquettes makes me feel like taking a nap but i totally see how simple shapes like this are easy to imagine in perspective and i think that's the point.

[@potatopotato9131]

“Notice a silhouette line is a combination of these two curves, and not one or the other” woo! This just made something in my brain click, thank you so much!

[@Pete_the_Fuzzball]

I don't understand half of what you are trying to say but you are good at drawing that's for sure

[@MargotValois]

Miyakolover me too I got so stressed out watching him draw so easily all these things, hard to not compare your drawings to his :(

[@CrimsonDawn-ou4og]

@@MargotValois I have the problem of comparing my art to others as well. I try hard not to because that can destroy your confidence and it serves you art block on a silver platter. Just doing as much as we can without thinking about the gap in our abilities is all we can do for now

[@zoura3257]

@@CrimsonDawn-ou4og This helped me quite a lot before because I used to compare quite a lot and now it's not that bad. If you think everyone that is on a high level as a master/teacher that has put in the time and deliberate practice and you as the student it puts the bar a lot closer and reachable. Hope you do well on your art journey, and hey this doesn't even have to deal with art in the first place with that advice, it could be any hobby man you are the one that's stopping you doing anything that seems impossible. Much love man, I hope you achieve those goals.

[@Rexodiak]

Production value surely went up!

[@Mr12toe]

Missed you, man! Glad to have you back

[@OursAreTheSix]

to be honest, the video was super informative, but now as I look back on it- I don't think I learned anything. You should really consider doing a follow-up video, where you just focus on like one body part, like a hand or head and explain how the vanishing points are affected in different perspectives and different portions of the body part are affected

[@Devorantem]

That's probably because this video isn't meant to be consumed by beginners.

[@OursAreTheSix]

@@Devorantem yeah true, but strangely enough I'm good with perspective, just not like, if I decide to change the perspectives. Which is prob why search led me to this video. Either way, he made a video about what I was looking for like the very next day. He's def very talented.

[@OursAreTheSix]

@@Devorantem I guess what I'm trying to say is, this was somewhat just the building blocks of what id already cobbled together. I was looking for something a bit more advanced, and he delivered

[@bubbyskittles4802]

@@OursAreTheSix People toss around the word 'talented' too much. True talent is very, very rare, and although this guy may have skill, skill and raw talent are two very different things.

[@OursAreTheSix]

Well, I think that's a little harsh. As an example, everyone in the NBA has talent, then there are some that are gifted like team starters, then there are genius like all star teams, and then there are Legends. This person may have talent, or just simply worked long and hard to get where he is, but he definitely has an aptitude for this

gwad, I feel now more intimidated when perspective is introduced.

[@improvementTime10.3.17]

13:13 anytime you tilt a form you create a VP that isn’t on HL

[@lll6679]

When he says "remember, when you tilt a form you create a vanishing point that's not on the horizon line." Does he mean creates a point that's not already on the horizon line or just a floating vanishing point. I thought vanishing points had to be on the horizon line. If anyone could help me much appreciated.

[@samuellouis4940]

Can you create mini tutorials like for the Ribscage and Pelvis, or for other individual Shapes and Forms? That would be extremely helpful!

[@maxwelljiang4729]

Hmm, so I understand perspective, and (I think) I understand anatomy, but there's a disconnect when I try to put things together. For example, when you drew the human forms at around 8:00, were you consciously thinking about horizon lines and vanishing points? Did you just estimate the convergences?

[@moderndayjames]

I do estimate convergences, but a lot of that comes from understanding ellipses. I'll be making a follow up on it!

[@crowofcainhurst]

The boxes reference is helpful when you tried to draw building or environment. But when it comes to drawing human, monsters, or animals, the problem would be how to keep the form consistent from the perspective angle.

[@AdrianVirlan]

Don't you hate it when you get so old that even your beard starts to sag?

[@petrstranik1770]

Hi James. Why do you call it Minor axis? I would say that it is the long - major axis dictating the flow of the form. What would be the major axis in your point of view? Great lessons I have to admit. I have been reliant on references and I want to improve my work from imagination and I feel like you're the right way to go about it!
