Pencil Shading: 3 Different Ways [Narrated Tutorial]

[@Sealedaway]

I already knew I would like the non-linear shading since it looks the most realistic, and it's definitely the best one in this context. The cross hatching looks decent, but it has a pretty rough, almost hairy texture to it that makes it look a bit like a coconut. However, I was very surprised to see just how well the straight line approach holds up. It looks very smooth for its simplicity and gives an old, faded effect. The straight line shading was a technique I used as a kid. Seeing that it actually has some validity and potential has inspired me to get back into drawing more than ever. Dangit Crilley, you've done it again.

[@arelcrest]

Do Not Remove This Seal When I was reading "hairy texture" in my mind I've heard Baymax say: "Hairy baby!". X//D

[@alanbritton]

Really struggle with cross-hatch shading, it always looks 'false' when I do it. However my other, bigger more pressing problem is - when to STOP adding shading. Maybe when the entire page is black?? ;-)

[@sneezersmom]

I am self taught and have only used the third method. I like that the best, but the second one is striking.

[@peluso_palit]

First circle shading very impress me. It looks real! Second one, wow!!!!! Third one, gosh, amazing. I must practice 3 shading techniques. Thank you, Sir.

[@dr.muffles6368]

I remember watching your older videos of anime drawing tutorials, coming back your videos still feel so nostalgic! Like a 2010s vid

[@crumpetboi]

Ive been using blending sticks because you can get really smooth shading. It works really well

[@helloshiny8475]

Oh this is just what I needed, a classic CRILLEY video. Drawing, techniques, concentration and flippant dorky jokes. This is CRILLEY at his best. That is not even trying but totally loveable and 100% genuine. Oh, and I've been trying to draw eggs all week... Weird!

[@uhhh9140]

I used to watch your drawing tutorials when I was little. Today I dived back in to improve my art, then I found you and recognized you and instantly subscribed. :) Thanks for the help.

[@bonnibaby]

Just as I finish shading my picture this notification pops up.... *Leans over and grabs eraser*

[@mikey-gu6ro]

can relate.

[@Wrath_vfx]

Lmaooo

[@MinorKeyDancing]

Love the Prismacolor pencils! Thanks Mark!

[@greogewestmann4913]

Using a blending stump or other tools like paper towel, Q-tips will refine the shading especially for your last example. Will also help to counteract the texture of the paper from coming through, resulting in a more photorealistic image.

[@philipdeocares806]

Can I request a tutorial on creating a rusty effect on a metal object? I'm struggling to recreate this effect for my art project.

[@trevordavis-dressner9913]

I agree

[@KuritsuAkira]

YES. PLEASE.

[@joseruizdiaz9622]

LET'S GET RUSTY

[@brendaevangelista7783]

Awesome tutorial, Sir! Thank you!

[@rosedarkling]

I learned things. An your voice is so soothing, Mark. Keep creating and teaching with the talents you've been blessed with. God bless yours and you! :)

[@Anh-zz4go]

That's not his talent, it's what he has to work hard for.

[@OmGnomeGo]

That crosshatch is beautiful!

[@elizabethmastin2307]

MY FRIEND AND I WERE JUST JOKING ABOUT ME DRAWING HER AN OVERLY DETAILED EGG FOR CHRISTMAS HOW DID YOU KNOW

[@SaphInfection]

Ella M I heard that certain features on your phone (maybe siri or google I think?) listen in on your conversations to better know what they should advertise for you. That’s why you’ll be talking about lawnmowers and them o on your social media and end up suddenly seeing an ad about lawnmowers. I’m not really scared of it tbh I see it as a helpful little personal assistant who wants to help me. Just as long as no one decides to use that power maliciously I’m alright with it. And as long as they don’t try to idk press charges on me for jokingly saying I’d do a crime (like rob a bank or something lol)

[@artsideoflife]

Great tutorial! Thanks for sharing it with us!!!!

[@Whatastic]

I've been subscribed for 10 years, still loving the videos!

[@s99ed]

....your channel was created in 2012...... LIAR

[@CH-hn2rj]

You don't need a channel to watch videos

[@julia-gorman]

hey mark! I just wanted to thank you for making these awesome videos, they're really helpful. Also I've been using your mastering manga book for about a year now and it's really helpful!

[@cookiepig1038]

I never thought a video a teacher assigned me would ever make me legitimately laugh. That "its in the contract" voice really got me :]

[@penguinworks]

Thank you for all your videos and your books. Your channel and the two pencil method are baring fruits!

[@user-pr1qg7bk7k]

Mark! I got one of your Mastering Manga books! I'm very happy and it seems amazing!

[@markcrilley]

Thank you so much ^_^

[@user-pr1qg7bk7k]

.o. You replied. Your very welcome!

[@gammagod7201]

Can you do a "How to shade wrinkles on clothing" tutorial? It would be really helpful because I can't really seem to get how to shade wrinkles or the area it stops light from reaching Realistically. Mark Plz :3

[@tridenthigh5493]

Yes, really useful ! thank you very much for explaining the method so clearly

[@mehmetmehmeti5639]

[@danceforfun2011]

I really enjoyed this shading video especially the last non-linear shading part. Could you do a video about non-linear shading of an egg from the very beginning to the very end at normal speed? Thank you.

[@dynastyphantom8773]

Cross hatching egg looks so fluffy!

[@caitlin2143]

Perfect timing! I will definitely recommend this to my art teacher for show, hence the fact that we will soon be doing a focus on shading. Thanks!

[@CoyGh0st]

Thanks this helps me we are learning this is art class 💙keep up the good work

[@cathydoorten]

I love the first. I love the second more. But i so love the last one. I gave it a like so i can do the same in the future following along with your video. Thank you

[@kristythurman7026]

SO great and thank you! I just did this lesson. I've learned so much from you. I look forward to getting your book!

[@davidtheartist8179]

Always great content mark. Keep sharing your art wisdom with us

[@Crytoma]

Good to see even you are getting better at drawing!

[@OmGnomeGo]

[@universeskater7679]

3:51 its the voice of the old racing driver in head to head(motor trend) right? Totally seems to me so

[@sharydenleeming4731]

I think you’re really great and your voice is very cleaning and soothing but I’m confused on what the last technique of shading called

[@nerdbot4446]

The (Cross)hatching method is more appropriate for an egg

[@Butterflylobsterclaw]

Thorsten Dörnbach bah dum tsss

[@charliehillman4081]

Indeed ‘tis

[@bloodfangwolf1726]

But tgen it would become a chick

[@ellarue3753]

I love your tutorials so much! Can you please do more tutorials on drawing forests, or other environments like that?

[@CarlosBenjamin]

Ella Rue :3 I must be tired. I thought you were saying, “I love your tortillas so much!” Needless to say, I was confused for a moment.

[@ellarue3753]

Carlos You just made my day XD

[@CarlosBenjamin]

Ella Rue :3 Good. I’m glad someone else was able to get a laugh out of my silliness. And, as you can see, hours later I’m still up!

[@richshekelstein5190]

This dude is informative and hilarious.

[@yuljuniortv7038]

[@TheLondonbj]

Very interesting tutorial and very nice Teacher. Thanks

[@cydneytwardzik4501]

[@darkvoid8512]

Omg it has been so long, i used to always watch your vids wooowww

[@BreezeMHill]

thanks for the video crilley. I'm already thinking about which textures would go well with which objects. i was wondering if you could do a similar video but only with inks instead?

[@showkathossain4649]

[@kamewave6432]

[@arjenachten5849]

SAME

[@GcorpCoPrez]

I just tried that without my glasses. They sure do!

[@skygelbron6321]

For anyone who's curious about using the third technique in drawing either realistic or photorealistic illustrations, it's called scumbling and if you do some research, there are several resources which will talk about the technique. :)

[@palakmehta365]

You are GOD DAMN TALENTED😍😍 and I can't believe u have got nine dislikes......haters gonna hate....but u don't deserve those dislikes ....seriously amazing😵😵

[@mahmoudelzayat7111]

I love your art mark :)

[@weneedlivesproductions5329]

Can you please do something similar to this but for people? (Black and white drawing and this shading for the skin)

[@markcrilley]

Try this one: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mIenmnevat-Va7s

[@weneedlivesproductions5329]

markcrilley thanks😊

[@spartenalpha]

Cross-Hatching looks a heckin suspicious lot like Argyle patterning, and even done a certain way looks like scales to me, woah :O

[@rupalidhatingan9445]

mark can you show how to draw manga faces looking behind next time please!!

[@sharingan712official8]

I like the first example.... And i often use it

[@shivanikaushik910]

can you tell that which is a good pencil for shading

[@medina9204]

can u do a video making a variety of different 3D shapes

[@AishaKhan-lp4lt]

Which one look more realastic? Your opinion please ,mine is last one

[@myrkflinn4331]

I go both ways for the hatching (up to down etc)

[@Itachikirby111]

How about a cell shading video?

[@thebulletkin8393]

I’ve tried out the line technique but I can’t achieve the quality of what you’ve drawn there, I’m not sure either what I’m doing wrong but I guess I’ll just keep trying

[@brooklynbabydoll718]

I love u Crilley!

[@crashangel712]

Hi Mark, thanks for your awesome videos. I'm struggling a bit with shading, I love the third method, but I got one question. Do you always apply the same pressure on the pencil ✏️ and you just go over it several times to make it darker or you use different pressure on the pencil? Thanks

[@Exset20]

Awesome insights. Thank you. 😎👍🏿

[@bamsway]

Awesome! I should try this myself. I started my own little art channel a few months ago with the intention of learning to draw. If your interested, take a look. Advice is always welcome!!

[@bramb8613]

Buttersway love your art!

[@pachik0]

Buttersway cool!

[@kaatje6973]

Keep up the good work! Great channel!

[@bbsauce1593]

That's actually really cool! keep drawing!

[@stijnbutsraen4951]

Wow your channel looks very nice!

[@CarlosMartinez-md5en]

can you do a tutorial on Shading letters?

[@Heinzpeteromfg]

when I use the third method, i always leave a lot of lines, especially the pencils tip leaves a pretty strong individual line even though im holding it like you any advice how to avoid that?

[@SharonLesliesoulseer]

incredible detail... thanks

[@yashaswar1973]

My art teacher set this video as homework. Ur my art hw bro But very good video!

[@UrFavPookie2000]

My art teacher did the same thing, but I can’t do it it’s too difficult I can’t shade

[@QV33N1]

Can u draw Yato from Noragami? I loved the Kirito drawing u did and would like to see u do Yato :D

[@charlottecohen6473]

Hi Mark. I am literally in great pressure and stress due to me doing 3 PROJECTS for my art exam: Walking, food and expressionism. Have you got any tips/advice to help me reduce my stress when I'm doing my art projects because I got an art exam after Christmas (roughly about 5-7 weeks)?

[@manasranjanmohapatra1928]

True arts the best without doubt.

[@linksgaming8121]

Great vid great art

[@AvanM]

With all the repetitive motion of the wrist, how do you prevent rsi?

[@unclered6006]

I am really curious, did you blend in time lapse? Or was there no blending whatsoever? I didn’t see any blending tools used.

[@nicolebeardsley2215]

I prefer the first and third tecnic :) Mostly the third

[@shamimartacademy9757]

Very Nice

[@Edward-sp1sb]

Very nice sir .

[@alicia_gaming_community7885]

Awesome, I learned new things again about shading, thank you and please keep it up

[@lowochi]

I bought all your books :D

[@markcrilley]

Thank you so much!

[@nohaatef4910]

Amazing ! Thank you

[@krasnogorsk]

what's more important than observing the hands of your instructor in an environment like this? I urge you to drop the time laps and let us watch your work more in depth...other than that, a fantastic video...so thank you !

[@R哲学的杀鱼佬]

that really help me，thank you

[@makram2805]

Wah! Keep going bro. MashAllah

[@LearningZoneLanguages]

The third egg is more realistic but in spite of it I like more the second.

[@TheObloINATOR777]

this was homework, to watch and try the techniques! i was the only one only subbbbbbeedddd!

[@Floppyyy]

18 minutes of my life

[@mitchelllimque2027]

Hey Mark, I was wondering, every time I’m drawing I find myself twisting and turning the paper so it works with the pivot point of my right hand, But when your using a big unwieldy sketch book obviously it’ll be to hard to do that which means when I’m drawing a horizontal line it’s especially difficult. Do you have any tips to help me break this habit? Thanks!

[@vinrago7936]

Ciao, ti faccio una domanda. Le due matite sono di grafite tutte e due, di quale gradazione? Grazie

[@undeniablelogic1963]

Sorry to promote another channel, Mark, but if anyone is struggling with where to put the shading, look up Istebrak. She's an amazing artist that focuses most of her time on shading.

[@tailsprower7906]

Hey Mark! Please can u do a draw my life video! Thanks!

[@dravincristian7103]

waow..............................thank you mr mark
