A good few tips for anyone coming to this video now: 1. Draw with your *entire* arm, not your wrist(as you have much more control of your muscle movement). Use your wrist for very small details, but as little as possible. 2. Picture things in a 3D space. Your watching this not to learn how to just draw an anime face, but how to understand how the face is built to work in a 3D environment so it feels natural and full. Drawing is about building a custom “How-To” guide in your head, and learning how to use the tools properly to actually follow that library you are mentally creating. 3. Your not here to make a pretty picture, your here to learn to draw. Perfection and making sure your lines are correct, prim, and proper, is probably the singularly worst thing you can do when your learning art. If you focus too hard on the detail and don’t focus on the construction and foundations of the piece, your going to learn a lot slower. 4. After your done with this guide, practice. Don’t just copy what he did, experiment with the steps and create something of your own so you can truly say with confidence that you know how to do it off the top of your head, and you understand how it works! Then, after a day or two, try to replicate it again and see if you can remember how. If not, try watching the video as a refresher course. Congrats! You’ve just learned how to teach yourself how to draw just by reading a KZbin comment. Correct me with your replies if I’m wrong, as I appreciate criticism.

[@allroundlad]

Very good tips, thanks 🙏

[@koysiimiah3320]

The arm advice is a great tip if you suffer from cubital/carpal tunnel syndrome. I find my wrists start to ache and fatigue too quick if I use my wrist only with micro movements. Over the years small movements of my wrists when writing have caused this issue of repetitive strain injury (RSI). I wish I knew this when I was first taught how to write now my writing is atrocious due to learning how to write using my whole arm instead my wrist only.

[@danibaba7058]

@@koysiimiah3320 Been programming over 3 years now and never had a problem with carpal tunnel... I just recently got into drawing and it honestly feels way better to use my arm for bigger movements(like drawing hair) and my wrist for smaller ones. IG it depends on the person.

[@koysiimiah3320]

@@danibaba7058 that's great pray that you never suffer from this issue. If allowed to get worse without rest and stretches, you can lose the ability to grip and the pain is unbearable sometimes. I use a gel mat and gel support which helps significantly and I also use a vertical mouse now that also helps alot.

You may be surprised at how much you can learn on KZbin. The method in this video stems from the Loomis method for the face. You can also check the Loomis method for the figure, if you find your figure drawings look odd - you'll find yourself entering the rabbit hole of fundamentals of art you didn't know you needed to learn...

Felt the need to say this. Really appreciate that the way he teaches, he gives the extra guidlines and follows the shapes around them. I'm talking about the ones within the shapes that are drawn along the form, eg the series of curves around leg as it changes position. Explaining the best I can. It's early, lol. Pay attention to those lines if you really want to learn! It's invaluable information! You end up drawing your own poses that way and because you do, you get them right more of the time. You can easily draw from reference this way too and it helps you understand the form of what you're looking at. I used to think 3d wasn't necessary because we're working 2d but that's wrong. We are working IN 2d but our drawings give the ILLUSION of 3d by using these forms. That's why artists go on about learning to draw cylinders and spheres properly. It's not just homework to keep you busy, lol. Just dropping this here for anyone interested 💕

[@San-kq1ss]

i feel like you should do a body construction tutorial. I know that you have a lot of tutorials showing how to draw parts of the body but I think you should make a new one showing how to apply all those techniques into one video. Maybe you can incorporate how to use poses into it as well. Or another type of video you could do is drawing basic anatomy and how to use that to create characters.

[@UwU-ln7oh]

circle stencil or a compass

Or another cheap option, tie your pencil to a needle and slightly press the needle on a point and move the pencil around the circumference. Principle is same like a compass
