How to Draw Spaceships - easy detailing tutorial

[@florentduchateau7070]

Loved it ! The decomposition of the drawing processus is exquisite

[@robertlkiss]

Thank you!

[@Gentleman_Jester]

Awesome. Thank you. You’re a great instructor.

[@robertlkiss]

Glad you liked it!

[@m00ki_i]

very helpful ! I'm designing a convertible space ship for one of my characters . this process feels so fun !

[@robertlkiss]

Very happy to hear that!

[@DobbsyLondon]

As a pretty big Scott Robertson fan, I'm glad I found this channel.

[@robertlkiss]

As a very big Scott Robertson fan mee too ^_^

Fantastic , no meter how untalented I'm after tutorial like this i have to draw something 🙂

[@andreaambrosini9711]

It’s interesting to see that even though these are technical drawings many things are and need to be just suggested. Super cool video! You are a very good teacher!

[@robertlkiss]

You should see how many times we tell that to our students even at the uni :D Just eyeball it it’ll be fine. In reality you can calculate it and be precise but no one will ever have time to do that, especially when we have computer and can do precise modelling.

[@yezzzsir]

There is a nice formula here to follow. I have trouble thinking through this kind of work so following your workflow I think will help a lot.

[@robertlkiss]

@@yezzzsir very happy to hear that, always love it when my videos actually help people!

[@unfetteredawesomeness]

Last time's video was very helpful, I just wigned all the details. But this is much more thorough! I can see what I did wrong and how to improve

[@robertlkiss]

I’m happy to read that, that is why I make these videos :)

[@cellia1198]

Thank you !! that's really helping me 😊❤ since most of the youtube drawing courses talk about humans drawing,so it's rare to find ones about mechs,space ships...ect

[@robertlkiss]

Glad to hear these videos are useful. I'm not focusing on humans so you will definitely not see mech of that on my channel :)

[@justsantiago]

Thanks a lot, very inspiring, I only wish I had fond this video sooner

[@robertlkiss]

Thank you! Stick a round we'll have fun!

[@nxtnoxx]

I absolutely needed this, thanks!

[@robertlkiss]

Well I’m glad I could deliver in that case :D

[@noprizaR]

fantastic, thank u sir.

[@robertlkiss]

Glad you like it

[@chaoticregression]

This feels like the opposite of hard surface modeling in terms of philosophy, angles/detail/function, but still gives off the same ideas/tones and both are used to make space ships that end up looking like they wouldn't be out of place together.

[@robertlkiss]

Funny because I thought I do only hard surface modelling. What is the philosophy because now I am curious.

[@chaoticregression]

@@robertlkisswhat I mean is that your drawings feel less rigid and less over sculpted than the hard surface models but still capture their essence and fit in.

[@eisenspanigel67]

great

[@robertlkiss]

Thanks!

[@davidmendez55]

Thank you very much Robert. So, do you use references to design the mechanisms?

[@robertlkiss]

Sometime I do. Depends if it's something I'm not familiar with. But I did study mechanical engineering so it is quite fun coming up with my own mechanisms :)

[@easterneuropeantracksuit3312]

Hi Robert what digital tools are you using?

[@martonraffai1702]

What kind of software you suggest for digital industrial design sketches?

[@robertlkiss]

Whatever you can get your hands on.

[@manic7134]

My at 9:50: “Sparth’s spaceship’s would be a good reference for this part…” 2 seconds later…. 😂

[@robertlkiss]

The secret t spaceships is to always do what Sparth does :D

[@Houdini_Bob]

concerning your patreon page. your top tier, you give your PSD files, but what if one doesn't use photoshop? I use Sketchbook, PS is too expensive for a hobbyist. love your videos

[@robertlkiss]

If you checked my Sketchbook tutorial you know that you can(and should only) save your files as psd files in sketchbook. All(good) drawing programs are capable of saving an opening psd files :) It’s industry standard so whatever you were saving your files as before in sketchbook stop that and save them as psd files from now on.

[@Houdini_Bob]

@@robertlkiss thank you. I must have missed that tidbit of information. I'll have to rewatch them. crap-ola, right at the start of 1st tutorial. I completely missed it.

[@Houdini_Bob]

@@robertlkiss I do have a PS to Sketchbook question. PS have a contract selection, (think inner extrude) does Sketchbook have such a thing? I tried Googling it and I guess I stumbled on a new AI search because is said "I don't know what you are talking about. try rephrasing it and search again"

[@merlinrehms8998]

whats that pixelated thing next to his head? Great vid btw

[@robertlkiss]

Thank you. I point it out in the previous video what it is ;)

[@merlinrehms8998]

@@robertlkiss alright imma check it out 😂

[@ghostlyart6470]

Do you take comissions on spaceships ? I have a sketch but I just want to see how you make it ^^

[@robertlkiss]

Sorry but I don't take commissions.

[@DmytroBogdan]

Why is that cup in the background blurred?

[@ducksoff7236]

Because it has a penis. It was explained in the last video

[@robertlkiss]

In my previous video I point it out ;)

[@DmytroBogdan]

@@robertlkiss after that squeaky stream I'm anxious to click on your other streams

[@ducksoff7236]

The thing about the owl meme is that it's actually how its done......

[@robertlkiss]

I know it is the basic of most drawing. Start with the simplest shapes possible and build on those. But yeah people wanna know the in between steps :)

[@robertnett9793]

Why does my milk carrying cargo ship need giant space weapons? Because when you are 10 or so jumps away from the gate network and the patrol ships - you know out in the boondocks of the frontier worlds - there is no police force. No orbital guard, not even guns for hire... You are on your own. And you wouldn't believe how many people want milk without paying for it. So better have a few percent power supply from your fusion generator spared to fire up your own weapons.

[@robertlkiss]

Space opera type scifi is nothing more but wild wild west indeed :)

[@robertnett9793]

@@robertlkiss Yes and it's glorious :D By the way - I am very thankful for your work - writing on a SciFi RPG myself since ... well over a decade and now I am at the stage where I need artwork. :D Buying is expensive - so learning how to make it myself is the way to go :D

[@robertlkiss]

@@robertnett9793 Happy to hear that! Drawing is a tool that is supposed to help creatives with communication and problem solving so these kind of messages are what I do these videos for :)
