Drawing Hands is hard. This Tutorial isn't. | DrawlikeaSir

[@zexa9116]

Many people don't know this , but Marcel actually saved my life. One day, I was watching Draw Like A sir tutorials and a thief broke in and held my family at gunpoint. I secretly took out my phone and clicked on a tutorial and the thief immediately dropped his gun and took a paper and started drawing. I took this time to call 911 and they showed up and they started watching the tutorial together like good friends. When the video ended, The cops arrested the thief. Marcel, I am forever in debt to you for saving my life. I don't know how to express my gratitude for you.

[@skoco1634]

Dude your are freaking awesome. Ever since I started watching your yt channel, my art has improved SO much. These are better tutorials than any art teacher could ever teach me. And the best part is that they’re really funny, too, so I can actually pay attention! Your channel is extremely underrated, you deserve hundreds of millions of subscribers. I just wanna say thank you so, so much, Marcel. You really are awesome.

I seriously hope to grow up as an artist like you. All my practice and knowledge came from you and i don't regret one bit of using my time to educate myself on your videos. Im sure i would have gave up if i tried to learn from any other artists on youtube than you. I thank you with my entire soul for keeping my passion for art!

I really like how you broke this tutorial up into different skill levels because it made me realize what I need to focus on while practising drawing

[@ringbalk4615]

1:27 man.. that level -1 is ten times better than my hand can possibly drawn :(

[@Decade332]

You can draw like this guy, you just need practice and learn how that thing works. (E.g 3d planes 'n stuff and breaking complex shapes into super simple shapes.) Look at me, im a shit drawer with no experience with drawing and after 15 days or so of learning how to draw, i can now draw better than the video's level -1 and level 1. Aslong as you have passion and motivation for it, you can.

[@solo.3283]

good blueprint on where to start on drawing hands! This is pretty much it simplified on the viewers

[@victoriathornton2973]

I just drew the best hand I have ever drawn in my life at almost 4 in the morning! Holy cow, I was not expecting to improve that quickly. I think it helps that I've been working on being okay with not being perfect. Thank you, Marcel! Also, I just bought your book and am looking forward to its arrival tomorrow. Im going to go buy more sketchbooks, erasers, and pencils today to be prepared for it.

[@Suraj-O73O]

Its not only that your videos are the best but drawing along with you is more fun Just keep one of your video playing while drawing makes my art better😂 idk why?

thank you for speaking a lot, that's the whole reason i was watching an art tutorial.

[@azusawaSRS]

This was super helpful, thank you! I think one of the hardest parts is getting good proportions (something that I find resonates within every aspect of art), so starting with blocking, then basic shapes, then exaggerations helps to make for a more organic hand. I still very much need to spend time practicing since there's of course a lot to learn, foreshortening being a particularly looming topic, but already I can tell the difference.
