it said my IP could get stolen. WTF

[@isaacsantana6560]

Love it

[@isaacsantana6560]

Am buy painting out in my apartment Bronx love u Jim

[@stavros9849]

Dude this guy just skipped like 7 steps of drawing preparation in the first 20 seconds and still created art. Thats master talent right there.

[@Silencer796]

Lol

[@user-nx3uf1rz5p]

Now remember how Kimjunggi starts his massive art from just first line without preparation

[@sas_quat]

Actually no. Indeed, he applied the technique of gesture drawing

[@thechelonian8079]

First 40 seconds he already made what 90% of people would have to take an hour to do

[@ramzy7330]

hold on now im pretty sure everyone could do that lol, but the part with the ink is impressive

[@paranoiia-nosvendearriba9226]

IM agree with both you guys. just amazing. He move his hand like he is Crazy but at the end we know he knows what da fuck he is doing.

[@DOT107]

Its basically a skill for simple sketching but it can also apply if you are confident with your line and visual reference. But he uses it creatively that even I can't do that without being a perfectionist *cough cough*avoidng mistake *cough cough*.

[@danthemanvids8725]

I'm Pretty Dank •-• it's a sketch

[@harshyadav7913]

Yes it looks overwhelming at first but remember he has 10+ years of experience with him.

[@malevolentmisfit]

As an artist myself, this is phenomenal. He only took 12 mins. If it was me it wouldve been an hour. Jesus what a beast.

[@sociallysnow7606]

Imagine getting so good and so confident with your lines that you don’t even need the construction, he just gets into it.

[@dazzledazz123]

This dude draws as naturally as i breathe .

[@saintpoli6800]

BlackW0lf You breathe naturally? Lucky

[@lurkinhehe]

@@saintpoli6800 yeah i wish i could breath by my own, i'm stuck with this breathing tube but my doctor tells me if i remove it i would certainly die and yada yada

[@cappzap]

what amazed me the most is not once did he go "oops made a mistake", any potential mistake he might've made, he just went with the flow. a seemingly minor but significant quality imo

[@Cereal_Killer]

Skilled g not hard

[@Josh_Grounded]

It is not hard, art is not meant to be hard it's meant to be fun but that doesn't mean It doesn't take years of skill and dedication to be able to sketch your piece out with correct proportion and resemble your goal in under a minute first try. The guy has mastered this style of drawing, don't try to low ball it.

[@winuxworx]

Of course there's a preparation (practiced the piece) before he took the video which every vloger does.

[@ineedjesus5433]

Holy shit so that's the power of a pro

[@ineedjesus5433]

Like seriously, so far any drawing vid I see I always have the feeling that it would take like a few months of practice, but it shouldn't be too hard to get to that level But this... I simply can't think of any way that I can actually reach this level

[@GabeFlo45]

What a messy sketch in the beginning but he knew exactly what he wanted and man that’s crazy how it came out. I wish I was at this level but you can tell this man is someone who has practice over and over and is one of the best. bravo 👏🏽 I loved this so much

Study form drawings, learn how draw atomically correct figures, do posture figures, draw real faces. If you learn how to do those things right then drawing any character becomes easier.

[@wagspdx]

Jim is one of the greats, I

[@ricedonut6567]

You know an artist is experienced if the sketching takes under a minute and the drawing doesn't even take half an hour.

[@mariamakermanMarz]

all the comments that i see are so true, guys even watching full time artists that sketch so accurately so slow woth trielas and errors, but most ppl doesn't even show their progress of failures, but this guy he does it in front of ur eyes and his iinicial scribbles were beter then any of ma art that i use to consider finished after dealing with it for few hours...have no words , of course many ppl can achieve a success with lot of trying and exercising, but even experienced artists can never be as good as true talents like this. it comes natural and it is blessing!

[@Max-ou4zg]

That is because he drew this character countless times so by then it's already just muscle memory

[@Mizdere]

I think its a bit insulting to say his skill came naturally and it's a talent he was blessed with. Skill is something you put time and hard work into, while what you're saying talent is just given.

[@mariamakermanMarz]

all i am saying and i mentioned the part when trough learning and ghard work you might bvecome an artist but don't argue on fact that u should have not only skills but mind set imagination and seek inspiration in everything, so thiese are the things you can't learen but are essential for an artist, the word "Talent" exists for a reason, teher are ppl who without hard work an teachers achieve success, otherwise everybody would put amount of time and work into gaining some talent, but singing drawing (done't mean rthe technical side again which are skills), dancing is something u can learn but u can't be a master without a voice cuz u are born with it or not, can't be a master in tattooing or drawing in general cuz u can copy, come up with ideas but they never be as good as true master's bc he is not working on his skill improvement only he is working on whole imaginary wirld, and the last thing you can be a writer if u know grammar or know how to create a novel or bc you write for entire life, it requires taklent to become a writer, so all the things that we do are possible but those who can teach themselves and have headstart what i call a talent will always move foreward, otherwise everybody would be something amazing to the point when it wouldn't impress us anymore

[@DOT107]

"You lack the confidence on your line and you are psychologically inclined on accepting it, but with practice you'll eventually feel it" Paraphrasing my mentor who beat me to death with 50 page worth of 3 inch single stroke straight lines back to back, It was hell, but it was worth it. After straight line, I got nailed with 50 more single stroke elipses, then came mobius line, then corners, and god forbids drawing a freakin car engine. good times. but calling it natural is a bit insulting. No one is that good, he worked hard to improve his skill. Not everyone is the same but anyone can improve their visual library.

[@Vincent-ld2bp]

Mariam Akerman agree with most things except him having natural talent. This guy much like everyone else worked for that talent so it's a bit disrespectful to just say that he is naturally like this. If you check out Kim Jung Gi's works and how he does it, you'll think it's natural talent as well until you find out that he practiced for so many years with so many errors.
