Mikey is probably the best Artist channels out there. He uses disposable pencils e.g. Mechanical or a regular pencil, and a simple sheet of paper you can find anywhere, and he rarely uses top of the line artist equipment that are expensive ... *_Who else thinks Mikey is one of the best Artist Channels?_*

[@Chimponaut]

You must be bad at searching, there's a sea of insanely good channels.

You're not aware that Mark Crilley also promotes the use of simple, basic "tools"? In fact, just yesterday, I received his book "The Two Pencil Method". You need to check out his YT channel.

Until now i always draw some lines and cubes as a warmup before draw something else. I think the 1st step should be about how to create a good line since there are a lot of beginner artist with shaky and wobbly lines struggle to draw something. Nice tutorial btw, actually the stuff i just realized from this video is how you move your hand, grip the pencil and rotate the paper to form the lines. Awesome trick, and love the triangle!

Mikey! First of all, YOU'RE AWESOME! I love your tutorials! You're helping me learn to draw when others couldn't! I also just recently learned that you can create your own playlists of people's youtube videos (a feature I'm so very glad of), and so now I have a full course created for myself which includes your art tutorials in an order that makes the most sense to me! Thank you for making simple and easy to understand (and also entertaining) tutorial videos! I look forward to contributing to your patreon account soon!

[@SinerAthin]

I like these basic tutorials. Even pros gotta go back to the basics from time to time, but I'd love to see more advanced tutorials. AKA: Release more tutorials, Mikey you maniac! xD

I was in the middle of doodling a skeleton with devil horns, and when you started talking about shapes, I was all OH THIS MAKES SENSE and started putting lots of shapes in my doodle to help my brain around the things you were talking about - thanks! my horns were just circles and triangles and it helped me understand the form of that kind of thing so much better :)
