Genius discovery my friend! Another thing I found was a video by ModerndayJames. He discusses how to draw the correct right angles when rotating cubes from any perspective (even wide angles). It’s basically using an ellipse as a clock face and the right angles would be 3 hours apart if a clock was seen from that angle.

Thanks for this !!! I am pursuing art in my 50s as my mid life crisis hobby. Seeing how to rotate boxes on vertical or horizontal axis really helps simplify the process for simple sketching.

[@canilearntodraw2579]

Yeah sometimes I wonder if this is my midlife crisis hobby as well. I feel you. Glad to know that this has helped you move forward.

[@jukkamantynen2108]

Hobbies in mid life are no crisis. Not having hobbies before mid life is a serious crisis.

Most people make this so hard to understand. You know that KZbinr moderndayjames I got his gumroad class on dynamic sketching and he goes over rotation. It was so mathematical I couldn't follow. It was like Scott Robertson how to draw it was like a different language. I don't want to learn math equations to draw thank you.

[@canilearntodraw2579]

Yeah there is a lot of information in his videos. Once it gets too technical I kinda check out as well. I don’t want to draw using all those lines. I know the idea is to learn how things look and then not use all the lines … but as a beginner I think trying to get too perfect holds you back from getting a good enough understanding and being able to use it in practice. I don’t want to learn math … lol 😆

[@kirawr.]

Great explanation thanks!

[@javi_wan]

Great tutorial. I never thought about this method. Thank you!

[@stormlord1984]

Bro, I've been struggling to rotate boxes (without doing them all on a grid) for quite a few years. Thank you so much for this, none explained it this way ever! If you find anything on cylinders (my bane) please share!

[@canilearntodraw2579]

Wow thanks! Yes I have done the same. And funny thing lol 😆… I already told myself that one day I need to solve cylinders the same way. Lol 😂 … will definitely share when I crake that code. ☺️

[@SFXGUARD]

Great Exercise!

[@jemportal4166]

This video is so helpful! Thank you so much 😊😊😊

[@perfectliar724]

Thank you! I really struggle with boxes and rotating them.

[@canilearntodraw2579]

I glad to hear that you found this useful. I know the pain of struggling with getting boxes to behave. Next up one day I’ll figure out how to get those pesky ellipses to behave.

[@amalathisdreaming]

Looks super interesting and more than enough for art needs of a lot of people. Thank you for sharing!

[@canilearntodraw2579]

That’s for the feedback!

[@pythonicentertainment6280]

brother i have been struggling with this concept for sometime it's so crazy how i didn't think of this earlier Thanks

[@canilearntodraw2579]

Thanks! So glad this could be useful to someone else on this art journey!

[@fernandacloviseoreidomundo1743]

thank youuu!!!! i was hating this so much

[@baileysidney1786]

Makes a lot of scenes :) thanks for sharing

[@canilearntodraw2579]

Thanks for the feedback. Appreciate it!

[@carrotfreak1]

Great video 👍

[@canilearntodraw2579]

Thanks carrotfreak! ☺️

[@artwhat..]

Hi.. the student has now become the teacher. Hay, that'll come in handy posing figures..

[@canilearntodraw2579]

Yes artwhat, it definitely has. I can’t wait to share what I have been doing lately. I was trying to solve a problem when I went back and uncovered this and wow I’m excited!

[@HuyNguyen-qj1vf]

darm, this took me almost 3 months to just learn to understand draw box like this video

[@canilearntodraw2579]

Hey hopefully I help few persons with this video. I took draw a box and still never “really “ understood box rotation … I understood boxes but couldn’t easily make them do what I wanted.

[@blastradius9136]

Got a video on how to rotate on the center axis tho?

[@canilearntodraw2579]

Dang. If I continue to get requests about this I might have to redo the video. Thanks 😊

[@williammclean6594]

I would want to see that too. I still find it hard to do this. That method where you draw the ellipse within the box with the horizon line thing. I find that confusing​@@canilearntodraw2579

[@lilcthulhu2076]

honestly seing your progress is astonishing have you ever considered making your own video tutorial or book to teach beginner ?

[@canilearntodraw2579]

Thanks for the feedback. Maybe one day. To be continued ☺️

[@RandomVex]

Plase make a video for wide lense too 😭

[@demonhunter8355]

Thank you sir amazing video can i ask a question do you know Solo artist curriculum by radiorunner certified by moderndayjames can you take a quick look at it is it good

[@canilearntodraw2579]

I have never heard of that one. However, I would recommend that one moves away from is it good towards, is it meeting my learning goals. If you don’t have learning goals then it’s probably just do I like the art? There is a lot of great content out there and a lot of great teachers. Other than that probably just google a review. If there are no reviews then that would be a red flag. However you said moderndayjames says it’s good. So I guess the next step would be does it fit your learning goals and do you like the art from the course previews.

[@demonhunter8355]

@@canilearntodraw2579 Thank you sir for your reply

[@guitarsandsuchetc]

Can demonstrate the box rotating on its center.

[@canilearntodraw2579]

You know I had this on the list but I felt the video was already getting so long and it was the same as the rotation on the corner which is a bit harder. Sorry. Maybe in some other video.

[@ebujvt65]

Wish it was darker can't see the lines.

[@canilearntodraw2579]

I guess I need to experiment with the bolder fine liner.
