How To Draw Noses: Form, Placement, and Artist Study

[@pawel785]

When David Finch drops nearly an hour video on anatomy you know it’s gonna be dope and you’ll have enough material to study for months. Thanks for your channel and your contribution to comic book art!

[@supersonico9364]

Don’t forget to join Dave’s Kickstarter project 🤓👍

[@studioshorob]

It is really incredible how densly packed this 41 minute video is with knowledge and advice. I certainly need to rewatch it a couple of times to let it all sink in. But most importantly follow his advice of studying other comic book artists constantly

[@sayanbera2541]

David could have easily made a course online and sell it , but instead he's sharing his knowledge for free . Really appreciate this gesture and most importantly I'm LEARNING A LOT.👍🏼❤️👏🏼👏🏼

[@pax_sxprano]

He does have a course online. Skillshare

[@JhoangelF]

@@pax_sxprano by any chance, do you know how much is the course?

[@TovenDo.O.Video-]

@@JhoangelF 1 trillion zimbabwe dollars

[@WhiteStripesStripiestFan]

Cool monke pfp

[@tonycook7457]

unreal. I've learned more in a 10 min video with this guy then i have in 2 years of study, and i dont know which is more telling. i think its time to quit my job and watch these DF tutorials full time

[@marcelbr815]

David Finch is leaving an unprecedent legacy for present and future generations of artists. His contribution is beyond words. A veteran guy in the industry, whose work is awe inspiring is sharing his secrets, tips and experience in a way that's never been done. In Brazil, we'd never have this kind of knowledge, as most of us don't get to go to Kubert School or anything like that. Now, not only he's teaching like a pro, but in a very clear and comprehensive way. This is something that deserves several backups, should the internet in the world collapses LOL! And free of charge! Thank you, David. Thank you so very much. I've been a fan from day one and now I admire you even more.

[@smiddy5263]

Man I've been struggling with noses lately and then this video pops into my feed, awesome! Thanks for all the work you do Mr. Finch, I really appreciate it!

[@rylha3175]

I don't understand why this channel has so little subscribers. Your explanation is amazing, it's something which i wasn't able to find and understand from most of the popular artists. I am very pleased that finally I can see how someone draw and explain face features from so many angles! Thank you very much for your hard work, I am very happy I was able to find you channel.

[@tsdobbi]

He seriously feels like if Andrew Loomis had a youtube channel.

[@m.i.miller8008]

Just found this video on noses... and you're the man.... you rock!!! My answer to prayer with my struggle with noses...Thank you so much for this video and for sharing your knowledge with us... I'm just learning portrait drawing and had some huge issues and watched many videos but yours was different... I just got it... finally ... you are a really good teacher.. Again many thanks... now to only draw at least 200 of them to stick in my muscle memory...

[@richarddunn7017]

I LOVE Bruce Timm's and Michael Turner's approach to noses. They are both highly stylized and are just really basic shapes, but they work so well.

[@kstrofii]

I'm extremely thankful for having an experience artist such as yourself, break down many different studies and princples in a simple way for viewers to understand. I tend to struggle with my placement of the eye socket, as well as angling the head in a manner that isn't flat, keeping the illusion of three dimensional form. This video was super helpful.

[@ASqdrnDA]

Struggled with the nose for years. One day it just clicked once I started watching this video. Thank you so much, Mr. Finch.

[@1MightyR]

Thanx for simplifying and Breaking down the shapes of the nose. I'll add these tips to my sketchbook!

[@richarddunn7017]

Mr. Finch, thank you for your time and dedication and continued support for growing the comic and art industry. These lessons are invaluable for all artists. When I am lacking inspiration I turn on your channel and the ideas start to flow!

[@vapsman88]

The up angle of the nose reminds me of Gil Kane who was fond of that angle. Thanks for sharing your skill and knowledge!

[@QuickWitit07]

This is the best nose video ever. Everyone teaches you how to construct the nose. You are the only one who points out the importance of the base of the nose which makes everything click.

[@brauliocervantes465]

Hi David! Thanks for doing this video! You read my mind, I was having problems with the noses. I would thank you soooo much if you do a mouths tutorial video. Take care!

[@eliskahulakova6906]

I must say I never understood the "blocking in" proces. Well, not anymore. Thank you, Mr. Finch. I love the video. As always

[@LowellLucasJr.]

I appreciate these great breakdowns! It's always helpful and useful especially if you cant find the right reference or advice to think differently!

[@ammanbansal2265]

Thank you so much for the video David. I still struggle with noses so this video helps me a lot

[@bawrbxokurdistan8486]

David I watched the unedited 53 minute version Lol and returned for this one both great by the way :) but the music and the slight zoom in and out makes it cooler 👍🏼

[@MonicaRelaford]

It's your voice David describing so simply , I've learned along from your videos I feel happy as soon as I hear your voice I grab. My pencil and mimic your teaching best I cn

[@beonhodges8660]

David your tutorials are awesome, you give such good first hand experience info to new artists. love it

[@ojasbhalerao2321]

Thank you very much! Mr. Finch! And guess what?, I recently had a problem in drawing noses so i went again through your superhero face course, but still had a problem in drawing noses. But this video cleared it all! Thanks again Mr. Finch!!

[@SketchingScottie]

Love the way you break this down!🔥

[@timcolivet7343]

Thanks again Dave, you are by far my favourite KZbin channel.

[@Iggyshere]

Thank you for all the tips. I am repeating over and over on my sketch book to get this style down.😊

[@jhannesca5536]

Deveria ter mais reconhecimento, seu trabalho é incrível! Meus parabéns, deve ter estudado por anos pra desenhar assim, algum dia quero chegar no seu nível.

[@ARTofTY-TV]

Great video David. Love how you make it clear when we are making abstractions for the sake of line and how looking at artists versus reality fits into the equation as a helpful compilment.

[@bernevaughan3029]

Thank you!, this video is so helpful.Sometimes you just need the right person to explain something ,for it to make sense 🤘

[@boobsthompson]

This was so helpful! Thank you! I’ve recently discovered An appreciation for how Terry Dodson draws noses. Not sure what it is, but I like it.

[@romariomejia5396]

Thanks David, you've been my favorite artist ever since I found out you where left handed!

[@TC_Hero7]

this was one of my fav videos. love the bridge from impressionalism structure to comic style. also love the break down of good artists styles

[@jordanlamarca7442]

Seriously the nicest guy in the world.

[@dieseldg]

This is now my go-to tutorial when practicing noses. I really like the music in this one, too.

[@gregoryashley7963]

Thank you very much for making this video! It's very helpful the way you simplified placement!

[@sferguson1130]

Man, I love your channel, and watch/listen at work, during downtime. It all seemed very digestible, until I tried to sketch along. It sounds and feels like it’s sped up 2x lol. My brain got so jumbled, trying to take in the rapid info. Had to rewatch parts 5 times and it’s still too fast for me. I appreciate the speed, when just watching, because some of these instructors, is like watching paint drying, but it’s nearly impossible for me to sketch along, with my ADHD.

[@grindhousecartoons6896]

GREAT STUFF DUDE!

[@allanthornton7754]

Thank you so much sir for helping all of us lessor beings learn the art of comic drawing.

[@lylewyant3356]

Bridge of the nose-Somehow that is one visual que I have not used very well in the past.

[@bintebaba5451]

I am takin classes yet am watchin your vidoes ..it is realllyyyy helpful you are amazing

[@jamessayer1309]

Simply amazing skills and succinctly explained. Thank you.

[@edeargle9253]

Another great tutorial video, sir. The addition of the study of other artists was a welcome addition. Also, shout out to the editor for the blow ups and static placement alongside the live frame. Nicely done and very helpful. 👍🏻

[@ycreatives8645]

I think it's amazing how Dave can make a 20 minute video about the male torso and anatomy, and he can make a 45 minute video about noses

[@RedMadCat]

Best guide about noses

[@agradoville]

EXCELLENT video. Gives the foundations and then allows you to choose ways that work for your style. Hope you decide to do this with Head, eyes, mouth too. Soooo informative. Thanks David!!!

[@vonVile]

Brian Stelfreeze draws great noses. They look simple, but still retain structure.

[@milkshake2507]

Hiiii , can you do a video how to coloring

[@gailaltschwager7377]

Thank you David! Can active the transcription please ?

[@akcomic4202]

This is an hour long and I'm digging it

[@lucianotradus]

Awesome! Lots of things to sudy, thank you so much!!!!

[@MQuest77]

As art students, we were encouraged to not only look at life, but also at other artists work. That included the greats from the past, each other’s work, and also modern greats whose work could be found in advertising and other commercial work. Why not look at great comic book artists’ work if your ultimate goal is to do comic book art? Looking at everything helps you to produce your own things; your perspective.

[@APerson-cl2rj]

beyond grateful, thank you @david

[@faris3547]

Can you make one for hand pls @david

[@jasoncollins865]

Great video..can you do a video on ears?

another awesome video david !!

[@LuchaCatDIY]

Great tutorial 👌

[@Victoralive_1]

What’s the pencil

[@giulyanoviniciussanssilva2947]

For a long time I measured the quality of a comic artist's art by how he draws a comic, today this point of view is stupid because many were deliberate choices, but a little of me always pay attention to whether the designer draws this part of the face well.

[@djaundrill]

Wow this is so helpful u always been an inspiration this vid proves it u go into such detail love these vids would u be able to do a hair one it's where I really struggle lol at Min doing cyberpunk character been working on for years but the hair n beard always let's it down lol

[@lyudmilagrebenchuk8176]

You make it look so easy. It wants me to take a piece of paper and a pencil just draw what you draw

[@JaxCover]

Great, thank you very much for this!! (Sometimes the music competes with your voice, and 40 minutes of the same consistent beat can drive some of us crazy. It's ok to just focus on what you're saying.) Thanks.

[@Tonydash23]

Is it too late to jump on the campaign for the book?

[@kareemettouney265]

Thank you David for your extremely generous videos , they are some of the best anatomy drawing tutorials evaaaaar :) I’m an artist my self , I love anatomy , and have devoured all the cool anatomy books .. and also have Been doing live drawing for a very long time together with learning from copying from the greats From fine art and illustration and comic worlds ..
