YOO!!! Hes back!!!!!

[@IDrawCars]

That's exactly what I said!

[@deepakmahiwal3680]

Welcome back!

[@howtodrawcars.]

Thanks! I've been pretty busy but was able to carve out some time to make this.

This video is awesome! In the future could you do a video on rendering with marker and pastel.

[@howtodrawcars.]

Ryan- I see the need for this type tutorial but I cannot create content for YT that covers the same information that is taught in my Udemy courses. There is a whole rendering lecture in the Level 2 Automotive Design course that shows the process step by step. Check the course trailer at the link below and see if it's what you are looking for. www.udemy.com/course/automotive-design-level-2/?referralCode=7487EEFD9C778A22A1BE Udemy frequently runs deep discounts and sales so you get into a course for next to nothing. The cool thing about the Udemy courses is that each one build upon the next so your skills are consistently improving vs. the helter-skelter nature of watching random vids on YT.

I love this video! Line work is so much more understandable to me now!

[@howtodrawcars.]

Thanks Red. Be sure to check out the other videos on the channel and to sub too!

Would you not just use section lines to show some of the transitions in the surfaces.... or is adding too many sketch lines confusing. Nice video Michael.

[@howtodrawcars.]

Yes, of course but if you're aware of using section lines you probably have a pretty good idea of what the lines you're drawing represent and what you want your surfaces to do. You're more advanced and looking at the context of the video through those eyes. That's a good thing. The key to doing a good drawing with section lines is to use your line weights so the section lines compliment the other line work and not detract from them. Look at Da Vinci drawings for how to beautifully execute section lines within a drawing. Glad you likes the new vid.

Please make video on how to properly shade /how much area of car design sketch with wheels we have to shade , do we have to draw wheels as a beginner or not

[@howtodrawcars.]

A shading video is on the docket but it might be a while as there are several new videos in production in front of it. For an in depth, step by step lesson on light and dark, shadow and shading and why and how shading happens, I would suggest you check out the Level 2 course on Udemy here - www.udemy.com/course/automotive-design-level-2/?referralCode=7487EEFD9C778A22A1BE You should draw wheels because it's impossible to draw them well if you're not drawing from your shoulder. Most beginners have not mastered drawing from their shoulder. If you cannot do this, it will not matter what your shading looks like how much you have. I would suggest focusing on the fundamentals and mastering them before moving on to more advanced concepts like how light works across the surface.

Sir, please make more videos like this with deep insights, the content of the video is just different I have ever seen! sometimes we have to learn how to illustrate by different techniques to represent what our brains imagine, techniques vary from person to person, and few of us know that sometimes we should practice particularly in this small scale instead of always practice drawing whole cars without thinking details in a large scale! And one more thing is that I have an idea. Almost every car designer use ''hatching'' technique to represent shadow or cast shadow..etc. but everyone use it differently! some use cross hatching, whereas others use only one direction stroke. I think it would be an interesting part if you would cover for the next video, because as we know, many beginners end up with a ''messy '' or not ideal sketch with incorrectly using hatching technique...!

[@howtodrawcars.]

Thanks for the suggestion. I have made a note about it for a future video. I am glad you are enjoying the content. Thanks again for the suggestion.
