[@markzuckerberg3001]

You're supposed to get paid for giving me this idea. I used to rage quit my drawing when I came across drawing hairs.

[@RixCanDoit]

It would be nice, right? Well, there's always the Rixcandoit.com website with the 'donate' link. ;-) Glad you found it useful.

[@jacktraveller8290]

This is exactly what I've been looking for, I'm drawing a guy at the moment with very wispy white hair and had absolutely no idea how to achieve the effect, thanks!

[@quwathavalentine8942]

Just what I needed since I'm starting on a portrait of a man with white curly hair and beard. This is an excellent tutorial.

[@nedhalamir8606]

Thanks , I like this way to draw the white hair

[@RixCanDoit]

I'm glad you like it

[@nigeldonaldson1647]

this is also a cheaper & arguably better technique then using an expensive propelling rubber pencil

[@sayantichaudhuri5757]

who would have thought that such regular tools could create such miracles!! thanks for sharing!!

[@RixCanDoit]

Thank you!

[@DarleneYoungartist]

Wow, this is a great techniqueI wold never have thought of it. Thanks for sharing.

[@RixCanDoit]

You're welcome!

[@meerajoshi55]

excellent demonstration and looked practical and easy.

Glad you found it useful and appreciate your watching and commenting.

[@rakeshuraj]

Wow sir I was confused how to draw white hairs, you nailed it. Thank you

[@SistaLee1978]

Oh thanks. I learned something today💕

[@RixCanDoit]

I'm so glad!

[@crystalwilder]

Just the techniques I was looking for. I have been struggling with hair highlights in dark areas. Going to try this magical tape trick. Thank you thank you thank you!!!

[@irfanah3575]

Wonderful technique sir ,I can try now drawing white hairs.thank you.

[@devindell3896]

This was a life saver! Thank you! Working on a commission and I was dreading doing the beard and gray/white hair. I'm going to assume this works for a short trimmed beard. Do a few practice goes and then go for it. Again, thank you! You saved the day!

[@RixCanDoit]

Glad I could help!

[@RixCanDoit]

Would you like to buy me a cup of coffee for sharing this technique? --- www.buymeacoffee.com/RixCanDoIt WARNING: This video contains sounds that may or may not be gum chewing. The video is several years old. I've already read enough comments about 'gum chewing' as if it was the end of the world.

[@everettwhite9874]

Thanks a lot for sharing these tips. I’m going to use what you’ve shown for a self-portrait on my beard. You got my 👍🏽👍🏽🆙

[@helensydenham1282]

Good idea as it was very good for example. I never thought of it. I will try that way. Thank you.​

[@josephin1900]

Thank you sir for making a tough job easy with your technique! very useful

[@TheSpringplank]

TX a lot for making the time for very well explained tutorials, this help's so much.

[@SDW90808]

Absolutely fascinating! Thank you for sharing. I wouldn't have figured that out in a hundred years.

[@RixCanDoit]

Glad it didn't take that long! Thanks for watching!

[@natebrowley7408]

Perfect , very resourceful

[@RixCanDoit]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@dougg1075]

Awesome

[@whasumara73]

Thank you very much. I didn't know of the tape/frisket. I've learned something new.

[@RixCanDoit]

The "TAPE" used for this method can be ordinary office tape, like Scotch tape. If too sticky, just apply it to your clothing first, like your jeans, then use it. I prefer to us Low-Tack Frisket film as it isn't too sticky and peels off nicely. Just do a search on "Low Tack Frisket Film".

I'm a self taught armature sketching artist, more a hobby than a money maker, and I must thank you for such a great tutorial. I have struggled with white hair details and found your video very, very helpful. I'm subscribing.

[@RixCanDoit]

Brian Quilty Awesome. Glad you got something from it. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@bihaur]

Great idea!!

[@RixCanDoit]

Glad you think so!

[@timmathews6873]

Very useful, thanks, if the man wants to chew gum, let him chew gum, you can still hear every word clearly. Free advice on a great technique, what's not to like

[@RixCanDoit]

Thanks for the support. Didn't realize it would be so noticeable.

[@aster1210]

Wow, that tape technique is sheer genius, thanks for sharing ! I just tried it out on some test drawing paper, and the first few times, it slightly damges it, so i would strongly advise to first tap your fingers for a while against the stick side, to be sure to not damage your drawing. (you need very little stick to remove graphite, but too much will damage the paper

[@blzbob123]

aster1210 ah perfect this has been happening to me also I didn’t know what I was doing wrong

[@yvonnepayne5237]

Who'd have thunk it. Great tool technique.

[@angel97496]

wow ! those are amazing techniques ... i used to do it with a sharp eraser or white pen but it never make the same wonderful result ! ... thanks for sharing

[@RixCanDoit]

Rayli Essawi Thanks for your comment.

[@renadalzumea9707]

Man u r just awesome i'm in love with ur art !! u r the greatest artist I've ever known 👏🏼

[@RixCanDoit]

Thanks. But I'm far from meeting your high praise. I'm still relatively new at this. I started drawing Sept. 2014. This drawing was done Dec. 2015, 15 months later. Last month was my 2 year anniversary. Great artists have been doing this stuff for years! But I do appreciate the compliment as it is a motivator.

[@THrEeMuNkEes]

I have been drawing my whole life and have just now started to truly seek to improve and your videos are so inspiring! This is a neat little trick you use, I bet you could use a sculpting tool instead of a "pen without ink". They have different size steel nibs that are like roller ball pens and you cold have different sizes instead of just this pen tip size. :) I will be interested to give this technique a try, thanks for sharing!

[@RixCanDoit]

Glad you found it useful. Thanks for commenting!

Smartest thing i have seen all year

[@pradaxina]

Thank you so much. I am going to try with the scotch tape.

[@pushpapatel4563]

Thank you so much for sharing, I would love to improve my portrait drawings, and this has just inspired me to go further.... I have used kneadable erasers, pen technique, but not the low tack tape which takes it to another level, cannot wait to try it out. I think you are amazing at what you do, so thanks again.

[@RixCanDoit]

Thank you for your kudos. As an amateur artist, such comments motivates me to keep reaching to do better. I'm happy to share what I learn on this wonderful journey of graphite art.

[@pushpapatel4563]

ok, so not only have I learnt from your you tube, just learnt what the word kudos means, never heard of it so as you can see how much Ihave learnt from you already, you tube is a wonderful educator.

[@karenmontoyapaints-n-craft8894]

We’re getting the lessons for free. Who cares about the gum.

[@RixCanDoit]

Thank you. True enough. Although I didn't at the time realize my gum chewing was being picked up and didn't want to waste the video. But all my later videos do not include the gum.

[@ricardoleyton4913]

man i struggled for so long with short hair , i was able to incorporate this technique to do short hair and for realtic fur too :) . thank you so much :):)

[@RixCanDoit]

Glad to here you got something out of it. Thanks for commenting!

[@doyler626]

is there any chance you do mythical creatures ?? id love to learn the fundamental of realism when it comes to drawing dragons and things like that ??

[@RixCanDoit]

Cloud Strife Since dragons and things are not "real", I don't think 'realism' would come into play. My work is to draw 'portraits' of people, although I have done a cat and horses. Did not enjoy drawing the animals and found drawing people to me more to my liking. We all should draw what brings us the greatest joy. I hope you find the information you need for drawing mythical creatures. Cheers!

[@doyler626]

no prob :) keep it up tho looking forward to seeing more :)
