hello i want to know if i bought a course in proko academy i have access to it content life time or how it is?

[@ProkoTV]

@@agustingomez7172 Yes, you have lifetime access to all of our courses We have one course, our course with Marvel comics, that has a license period but that's just us re-upping the license every few years as Marvel does not do perpetual licenses. But every other course of ours is immediately a lifetime access with a guarantee of lifetime support and availability from us.

I have been trying to learn the structure and planes of the face and actually seeing the process is so helpful. Cuz sometimes I just don't know where to start lol

[@emidio_art]

I learned anatomy thanks to Michael Hampton, i need more book of him tbh thank u so much

[@Gabu_]

Thank you so much for this video! Not only for showing the process, but more importantly for giving me a huge general insight on how I should continue to approach and develop my own - the phrase "a proccess-oriented approach allows you to make mistakes and then correct them" [paraphrased] unlocked an understanding I didn't even know I had in my mind.

[@apresmidi153]

This is an excellent tutorial on the general differences between the male and female skull but in my own process I am much more interested in a likeness as a means to convey a real sense of character. To me the important part of what he was saying came in the last minute or so.

[@AtSkiy1987]

Started my education with Hampton's book, it was very helpful. Thank you!

Michael Hampton is the goat. I can't recommend his anatomy series enough. Absolutely amazing teacher

[@sldmeyerz]

Man, just divide face in 3 parts: Hair line to brows, brows to tip of the nose, tip of the nose to tip of the chin. Or simple: hair line to tip of the nose Tip of the nose to tip of the chin Eyes tipically placed where the nose starts, mounth between tip of the nose and tip of the chin 😊

[@lemonwater2857]

@@sldmeyerz I... I'm trying. It keeps turning out pretty bad when I try but I suppose that's what practice is for... Doing it over and over again

Some methods of simplifying the structure of the head and face can be more complex than others. We have a handy playlist using the Loomis method that might help to make it easier for you: kzbin.info/aero/PL39135B8D190B7C97&si=POf9EsUKSlt_1o3m

If you just mean learning to draw in general, we have playlists on our channel that go in order on different topics. If you're starting learning to draw, our Drawing Basics playlist is a great place to start: kzbin.info/www/bejne/qqmYnH2sfpZngMksi=8ZavdyTgW3Qfo5v0

Proko, would you collab with marcos mateau? I would like to learn a composition course from him

[@ProkoTV]

Looks like he's got a bunch of educational materials on his own KZbin channel that cover many different aspects and types of composition. We'd never say "no" to a collaboration but you can get that for free over there already! Here's one that we found. Check his channel to see the others, though! kzbin.info/www/bejne/oWelpHqemtOHmJY

Skelly's still in all the anatomy videos. He's not a part of the Drawing Basics course. He's too busy after he was literally in a Netflix show recently. kzbin.info/www/bejne/mWSrdHatgpWsirssi=r2No40GdA1vJrfiV

What about non human heads 😅

Depends on how much of a difference there is. Lord of the Rings and Star Trek non humans, this will apply lol

[@spinkertoot]

I mean no disrespect with this comment, but I'm confused, his drawing on Audrey Hepburn doesn't look like her, was it supposed to be a generic drawing of a woman with her image as reference, or was it supposed to be a drawing of her?

[@ProkoTV]

There's been some confusion about this and we understand it. The examples shown were picked to show to widely agreed upon examples of masculine and feminine features, not to be a lesson on likeness. It could have been stated more clearly. Early on in each drawing, you can see him make changes to push things a bit more in their respective directions like changing both jawlines to emphasize certain characteristics. There is mention of some likeness that he wants to keep but that were just some small choices here and there.

[@spinkertoot]

@@ProkoTV ah! Alright thank you for clearing up the confusion

Se devi fare tutte queste operazioni preliminari per fare un ritratto probabilmente il disegno non è nelle tue corde e dedicati ad altro.

[@ProkoTV]

Absolutely untrue. You can do all these things to study and stop here or use them as the basis of a piece that you'll. Then spend hours and hours rendering. You put time into art to get faster at it later or for the things that just take time. There's nothing saying you have to make something in 10 minutes to be a good artist.

[@harmarka5462]

Looked more like Caitlyn Jenner than Audrey Hepburn

[@ProkoTV]

The goal.here was not to do exact likeness but to use examples of widely agreed upon examples of masculine and feminine. Some elements of both of their faces are played up or diverged from as part of this process. If you'd like a video on what helps to establish and push likeness, here's one with Chris Legaspi: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fF7cdoNnpbuVmKcsi=nCKbgXFlgqT-2UDu

[@harmarka5462]

@@ProkoTV Not sure what the point of a reference photo is then

[@cyberpunkdarren]

Looks nothing like her. #1 she has a very square jaw (which is beautiful btw). #2 Her lips are thin and mouth petite. Not the huge mouth with lip filler you drew. #3 her eye sockets are rounder not almond shaped. Those are the big basics that were missed.

[@ProkoTV]

Definitely! While he mentions making some changes for likeness, he wasn't going for doing a perfect portrait but using her as an example of well-known and fairly agreed upon feminine traits. Audrey has a pretty boxy/hard jawline that doesn't quite play directly into that and you see him diverge from that for the purpose of the lesson very early on in the demo. You can see him make some changes to Khali's face as he works through it as well with the sharper jaw and cheekbones though that big ol' chin makes it read as more immediately him because who has that chin?? We have some other videos on likeness on the channel if you do want that, though. No matter what, it's about capturing the impression of that person, not sticking fully to a reference. Here's a video with Chris Legaspi: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fF7cdoNnpbuVmKc

[@blufudgecrispyrice8528]

Yeah but he was blocking in the whole face and then slowly sculpting the features to conform more to her likeness

[@stevenmichaelhampton]

Totally understand. Sorry to disappoint here. It's more of a lecture on shifting the generic head construction around. Nothing in the lecture is addressing likeness or concepts of beauty.

[@saulinvictus9274]

the whole idea is not to copy, but studying it, not a portrait but a head study.
