Thank you for having a useful ad! I’ve been looking for something like this.

[@JustenWaterhouse]

Is there a program you recommend for mocking up non-organic subjects/ environments?

[@eyakimicki]

@@JustenWaterhouse Blender is pretty simple if all you are doing is blocking things out, you just need to stretch basic shapes

[@alexregner2555]

Where did you get your references?

[@kseniav586]

great sketchbook! i'm not into mechas, but your ink drawings make me appreciate how much work and thought goes into that genre of art. and the way your reflect on sketches is very insightful. took a couple of ideas for my own practice, thanks!

[@ChromaMoma]

Glad you like it!

Remember dudes: Step 1: Fropping. Step 2: Shape the shapes.

[@doc8849]

Can't forget pringling. Absolutely crucial to the design process.

[@jobejones185]

Seeing this is very helpful for me to finally understand how to tackle a sketchbook. I have been drawing for as long as I can remember and am not too bad at it, but I have never taken the time to properly practice.

[@jamesfogel1104]

4:53 This "downloading" and "installing" analogy is so good. I heard this same description for a skill from my sports trainer and this is perfect. Sometimes we hear and believe we understand something/ a skill or sequence, but then go to replicate it, even a few seconds later and find it difficult to emulate entirely, or recall in the correct timing. I never applied that thought to my art however, and this is a great addition. Thanks for this raw description and walk through. Also find it funny how you say "this is ugly or i'm drawing ugly"... you have impeccable line work and proportions my guy. Excellent Video and drawings. Thank you!!

[@LimeGreenCouchPotato]

This was a nice reminder that I dont need to study literally everything to be good at art - I can just focus on studying things that I enjoy and am interested in studying. Its so easy to get overwhelmed with what I feel like I should draw vs. what I actually want to draw. Thank you, I will be applying many of these tips in my sketchbook from now on!

[@mikethebloodthirsty]

To be honest, like you say drawing can be whatever you want it to be. Just find what's fun, experiment with different pens, brush pens, inks.

[@laowaistudieschina7470]

This is probably the most useful sketchbook development video I have seen to date. Thank you! Also, the guy with the staff that you thought was "too skinny," if you want to make him really creepy, keep him skinny, define the muscles a bit like they would be on a skinny guy, maybe show his ribs and some loose skin near his waist, make his hair stringy and greasy-looking, and mess up his visible teeth. I think the drawing is cool!

[@niftyskates85]

Sounds like me

[@OldeLeshi]

this is basically all I do (after just doing anatomy/figure for a long time). I'd like to actually do more illustrations sometimes especially since long-form texture/detail rendering is its own skill, but I never feel like I'm ready since there are so many things to analyze and learn about.

[@narjester]

Go for it ! For me, learning to draw is a balancing act between studies and renderings. It's only natural to start out with the basics you mentioned but eventually you just have to leave the confort of theory and pop an original piece out. That is assuming you are commited to art and this is especially true if you wanna work in the industry (after all you do need a portfolio of rendered work to apply). Good luck !

[@Animationsmadefromyou]

Just do it!

[@Shebacca6000]

Honestly. When people have sketchbooks pilled up to me is art on its own ❤

[@brandogould9432]

this REALLY helped me! I 100 percent agree with your final thoughts about the fog of war and I so appreciate you sharing the "downloading/installing" sides of your practice. I know that this will help me put more of my sketches to good use learning rather than just feeling stuck with a blank page in front of me! Thanks so much for sharing!

[@7olkan]

excited to see the portrait study arc

[@CWARrated]

I love the way you study in your sketchbook. Seeing the process to your sketches and how you are learning makes all the puzzle pieces come together.

[@raissahofmann3591]

as someone that is struggling to get back at....just feeling curious again, or at reviving drawing as a natural way to express myself, this video gave me so many sparks. you made it feel really accessible and joyful. Thanks for the amazing video!

[@kava2021]

One of the best videos on how to use your sketchbook. To study, to analyze, to redraw. Love what you said sketching is like…exploring not knowing which direction you are going like in a video game. Also I like what you had said about writing what your purpose/intentions are for a sketchbook.

[@hollowedboi5937]

Perspective, simple shapes into complex shapes, write notes and use different colored pens, be messy, and what seems most important is to focus on what you’re interested in or find what you’re interested in within’ everything, jot down it all. Build a mental library, try to figure out how something was build or works, be interested in the world around you, be creative. Uhh what seems most important is to have a focus on something you are interested in, and write notes to better understand something in your own words, and try thing despite not being good because you want to get better and have the potential to grow

[@dapple2552]

you are so wise in art it's like you skipped 10 years experience 1 year i am looking forward to learn from you. thank you

[@ChromaMoma]

Wow, thank you

[@aki_4191]

This is so helpful breaking down what to focus on and how to tackle with creativity. Thank you!

[@HeyHiHello.ItsHeba]

one of the most helpful videos evveeeerrr!!!! i always get lazy or even scared to draw and ended up not liking it however your teaching everyone to take a sketch as a book and study everything and draw whatever you want on the purpose of learning not making it beautiful omggg u changed mu pov soo much im very thankful

[@krowkovtuber]

i'm always so blown away by people's art styles and abilities 😩😩😩❤️❤️❤️ this is so impressive!!!

[@lilredpen]

Great stuff! Always love a good sketchbook tour!

[@ChromaMoma]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@meninaLina]

Why is it that for the longest time I thought this was like illegal? Thanks for showing us your sketchbook, totally inspiring me to get started on my own "training arc" sketchbook as a beginner! 💞

[@beyondanimation77]

I'm very thankful of your content, and how honest are you w your process, your really encourage me to make art and projects, to continue learning, it's really inspiring.

[@doc_sav]

This is a really good idea. I never realized but I do a lot of studies without then incorporating the ideas into something else. Also great to see labelled ink test pages. I do those, and I thought it was a silly habit at first, but it is actually really helpful for when I go back and look and a color really pops out at me that I haven't used for awhile.

[@Vanllem]

Really cool! I loved the math teacher reference about leaving traces of how you got there!

[@oliverspin8963]

You did an amazing job explaining your PROCESS which is VERY useful to me. Thank you so much!

[@BhaiyaPaintingTX]

Love the download / install analogy. Great tips that I’ll definitely use in my own sketchbooks ✌🏼❤️

[@KhayJayArt]

I like how your sketchbook is filled with ACTUAL SKETCHES. I see way too many sketchbooks where people have whole ass paintings in them and I usually just draw rough head portraits and anatomy practice. It's cool seeing someone whose sketchbook video is just practicing studies 13:10 this page isn't ugly at all. The drawings are amazing and it's cool to see ur work in progress.

[@Angie_flores]

Sometimes the whole ass painting is a study too, they’re not sketches but still serve a purpose. I have a couple paintings in my sketchbook but they’re color studies

[@atinybruh]

​@@Angie_floressamee i usually scetch then learn and then erase and paint a cool thing ,maybe i should save the scetches tho

[@steve00alt70]

sketchbooks can be whatever you want them to be

[@ChampiRudo]

This video was something I needed. I know for some artist that setting goals for your sketchbook is a must and I think I have never seen any other video clarifying that from the very start. Like I said, i really needed help, my sketchbook is just lying around wit all empty pages, I draw the same always and it gets boring. I will take what you did as advice and hopefully I can try finish mine, thanks for the video :)

[@Yuriko-bh2vw]

Damm watching flip thru reminds me of how much talent goes into drawing amazing stuff like this and how much imagination u need to create! Im proud that I can draw atleast a bit, u inspire me too one day beable to dtaw like this

[@ChromaMoma]

You can do it I believe in you

[@obieswan]

great video. the type of drawing you mention doing on the scarab at 10:50 is called an eidotype; typically used in architecture to understand composition of specific building details. great job using it on the scarab beetle

[@nnn7886]

Really helpful and awesome sketchbook spreads! I need to practice life drawings more, especially ink!! But what i find so fascinating is how you get the perspective so good without a pencil layer

[@sophie-bw1tl]

i feel so inspired by these drawings, you're very talented. please keep drawing!

[@ChromaMoma]

Thank you, I will

[@sheepee1464]

Hello! I just wanted to say that you are my favourite art youtuber and I really enjoy your videos and your mindset towards sketchbooks and studying art. Keep it up!!! 👍👍👍

[@bravo90_]

I loved this video. When you mentioned the sketch book and how you split it in half, where you did a study on one side and applied it to the other side of the page. I also do the same thing. I personally find it as one the best way to improve at art. I recently came back to drawing and that is the process I employed. I've made big jumps in my style and art details. My hatching has improved immensely and my control of the line weight has really helped in creating detail and also adding character to the drawing. The way you did it was well organized you used certain colors to signal for the type of line it was, great attention to detail. Great video overall.

[@owltellyouwut]

22:47 not me audibly cooing over talgeese 2 TwT, so niceeeee. i love looking at mech drawings, especially pipings and wirings. im gonna focus on that plus metabolism architecture in the next sketchbook

[@afterimage1993]

this is pure artistic candy. I love it every time you upload

[@seekittycat]

I love these little books and how you keep them all. I admit I started throwing them away as I move too much to keep anything I can't carry. Will start my own journey too sometimes I just need to draw more to improve

[@jsh_crz]

I really love this video and everything about it 🫶🏻

[@ndadaboy]

This is such a helpful video! Thank you for sharing. I am not trying to be a concept artist, I’m actually a cinematographer, and I know a lot of these principles when I’m shooting, but I’m struggling to incorporate what I know into my art, and thinking about it the way you outlined is really useful. I actually never create a frame in my sketchbook, because I focus on objects or people, but I definitely want to start doing that now to improve my composition! Thank you! Love everything on your channel always.

[@chadyonfire7878]

you explaining u re process opens new doors for me , i love looking at ur sketchbooks even tho im not a mecha person , love the composition exercises u did here

[@zero_celsuis5457]

I have the same mindset like u.we see drawing as crafting and its not about just make the drawing look beautiful.

[@gaemr_o5147]

7:06 was probably one of my favorites. If i become a billionaire I'm definitely investing in some kind of flying sailboat. Also the cinematography exercises look really interesting, i'll have to try it soon. One thing I recommend is deviating a little more form the standard human figure, especially for any machinery (like some of makoto kobayashi's model's). I've always found it enjoyable and it opens you mind up to a lot more ideas.

[@Leo-sd4ps]

im' in art school and i'm quitting it for a VFX school by the end of schoolar year. I don't want to drop drawing so i'm trying to organise myself in my studies and drawing sessions. I already take the step of using reference of everything everytime. Ink drawing is tempting me a lot to not take to much time on the result (a litle sketch with HB is always a +). well you help me a lot thanks ^^
