RDR2 - Comparison of some drawings by Arthur and John

#rdr2 #arthurmorgan

[@Neon-qq5vq]

Johns little drawings are adorable

[@Mamuff5]

Jesus Christ Arthur is fucking shaking in his grave, wtf John

[@Uknown76]

Can't swim can't draw Jim Milton is useless

[@mcblaze2985]

I never noticed that Johns drawings got better over time, Arthur would be proud 😢

[@Drayhgo]

His drawings seem to get better over time

[@crazy922blade]

Everyone always calls Arthur an idiot and a simple-minded fool, but he clearly has a good understanding of shading, texture and perspective. I bet if people in the gang saw Arthur’s journal they would change their minds about his intelligence.

[@mcbruh14]

Hosea mentions this too in one of camp conversations, that he knows Arthur smarter than he looks, and he wants arthur to stop playing dumb brute and start thinking for himself

[@Grivian]

Arthur has the kind of voice that makes his sound dumb but he is not. That is why the journal is so important. It shows how thoughful and philosophical he is, writing about the viking grave, small church etc.

[@Magiczny-Krzysztof]

To be fair, John was pretty new at making journals during the epilogue (he wrote like only few pages before the epilogue), while Arthur had way more experience before, Mary Gillis said that he was always a great writer IIRC.

[@Grivian]

Arthur has probably kept a journal and been drawing his entire life. John has just started out, inspired by Arthur.

[@CokeJimbo]

Compared to Arthur's, John's look very amateur. Comparing John's to what I might draw, and John seems like an artist

[@mr.blancov3297]

0:35 Arthur drawn his adoptive father.

[@chunglegamer6328]

Who Hosea?

[@pedrovisk54]

Mr. Morgan, a true Artist 🗿

[@nobody-yk2hu]

I know people talk about how John's weren't as good as Arthur's but let's be real his are so much better than my drawings

[@-yeme-]

they try to make it like john is bad at drawing but his journal stuff was obviously done by a talented artist trying to make it look basic, its clearly the same person who did arthurs drawings. his proportions and perspective are all spot on, and those are things people who cant draw always get wrong 1:35 like that little sketch of a horce from a quarter angle is perfect in just a few lines

[@argentumsound]

It was a horce... named Horace.

[@bigboytownimations2723]

John basically drew the v bird for that bat drawing at the end

[@SakaDiKovVitch]

The fact that John probably took days off from writing just to draw birds and frogs- 💀💀💀

[@nickkiser8958]

One of the greatest games ever but this was one thing that really bugged me is I'll never be able to see all the journal entries. There's just so many between Arthur and John. I wish all of both of their possible journal entries and etchings were available online somewhere. Being a completionist that's the only thing making me feel incomplete about the game. All the camp scenes are hard to catch to.

[@PerkinsVR]

i feel your pain, but i also feel like thats the part of the development team's vision for more dynamic characters. they probably didnt want you running around to every single character in camp after every mission, just to see if they had something new to say like its a mass effect game.

[@tun-tunninc.6492]

Whoa. We have an artist on our hands.

[@dxkotaa]

Arthurs drawings are amazing and Johns drawings are cute

[@pemo2676]

actually he started improving!! you can see way more dynamic shaping and flow in the last few of animals

[@thecringeking873]

Goals honestly

[@FatrickAteman]

Would love to see what Jack would think about seeing Arthur and John’s journal in 1914, I wonder what his art and writing style would be like?

[@thenewlbj]

John putting I’m getting married is kinda of funny

[@mr.blancov3297]

The difference it's because John is better in worker ability (like build a house). Arthur have a natural attitude in arts and grammar. This is funny, because Arthur was for freedom but have a natural attitude in abilities collegates with high civilation. Also, Arthur is very similar too Jack in art\intellectual things. Like Jack take it from Arthur.

[@Queso-Dip]

why are johns frogs so much better than the rest??

[@Funny_Sword_Man]

Man must really like frogs

[@kieranduffynumberonefan]

johns little horse im dying its so cute

[@tetshua_2127]

damn, Arthur can draw

[@bananaproductions_]

love that rockstar took into acoubt that not everyone writes in cursive and that not all draw (THE HAND)

[@Baptiste_D]

Why John would be so good at doodles

[@wetfart826]

john draws good

[@larissamartins1678]

John and Arthur definitely draw better than me

[@cocoslangos]

People say john draws are bad but he only makes a sketch and not the details like look at the Hamish or old man draw he didnt add the details

[@ryanwilliams3772]

The drawing of the hand at the start

[@Alicesabbie]

The picture of John 2's horse reminds me of My Little Pony...😂

[@deepblue153]

John’s aren’t bad, but you can tell he probably didn’t sit and draw for more than a few minutes each. Rather than showing a lack of artistic skill, I think it shows a lack of deeper interest.

[@wildcat5498]

Anyway John better drawing than me.

[@Estebanues]

Like Dutch said: I NEED TIME. I wanna replay this game. I wanna do as many secondary missions as possible

[@argentumsound]

Do it! I've been in Chapter 2 just riding around, hunting and doing random encounters for like 800 hours now and I'm only moving to Chapter 3 to unlock more fishing and the horse fence. This game is something else man...

[@wreckerstein]

That Horse drawn by John has serious disease

[@argentumsound]

It's dead, it's shoes are off.

[@iguy6571]

John's horse is 👌

[@kaydensolano1323]

I still wonder what he draws with

[@someguy1894]

looks like pencil given the shading

[@kaydensolano1323]

@@someguy1894 did they use pencil in those times

[@someguy1894]

@@kaydensolano1323 In 1889, an Austro-Hungarian company called Koh-I-Noor introduced the first yellow wooden pencils at the World Fair in Paris. Their pencils were yellow because they were filled with graphite from China where the color was associated with royalty and respect

[@argentumsound]

Most likely charcoal or silverpoint. Both were extensively used for writing and sketching before the invention of pencils.

[@someguy1894]

nah bro why does john draw like i do???
