The thing with perspective that I learned in art school from one of my fav professors was “if it looks right, it is right” It doesn’t need to perfect, as long as it looks close and not awkward it’s fine, no one will notice.

[@AliasEliahus]

legit one of the best pieces of advice a teacher could give man, so many of us are gonna fixate on it not being 100% accurate when no one else will even notice

[@holless]

that is... such terrible advice 😭😭😭

[@zappers8027]

@@holless Nope, it's not, if you are not studying to be an architect, you don't need to make everything perfect, the big difference between technical and artistic stuff is the aesthetic, the aesthetic could be using the wrong dimensions, but if it looks okay and you are not planning on making it a real house, that all you need. Work smarter

[@holless]

@@zappers8027 no, it's bad advice. i do see the point y'all are trying to make, and i actually agree that it's best not to hyperfixate on tiny flaws! but that's *bad advice,* because amateur artists hear that and their drive toward perfection is immediately stunted. an obsession with perfection is unhealthy and a waste of time - but the goal of perfection drives virtually all improvement. i'm speaking from experience both as an artist and an instructor. insisting to beginning artists that close approximations are to strive for, and whatever you wind up with is just "good enough," leads to *total* stagnation. often for years. *speaking from experience.* you're welcome to disagree, it's an admittedly esoteric concept that advice can be both somewhat accurate, but damaging to offer. but it's literally just true that artists who begin pieces with the idea that every piece will be not only the best they've ever made, but as close to perfection as they can get - those are the artists who improve in leaps and bounds.

[@GuiltyCheese]

@@holless i would argue that teaching beginner artists to strive for "perfection" is even less helpful Looking for "perfection" all the time is only going to dissuade and discourage them as they struggle to make things looks exactly the way they envision. On the other hand, making something look convincing and close enough is much more doable and honestly preferable. Most people who consume art fill in the blanks without even realising it. Little imperfections are not a huge deal. Beginners should strive to be as accurate as possible, but not to be perfect. As long as it looks good it's fine. "Perfection" is a trap and not even professional artists meet that impossible standard.

Something that you could do is print out the page and attempt the hack! After doing the sketch, you could transfer it onto the paper that you want it on.

[@graaceie]

@@ayaneagano6059 ooh I might try that! I live in fear of back grounds. . .

[@ayaneagano6059]

@@graaceie It’s a really helpful method for drawing backgrounds when you want to do it traditionally! It gives you a bit more leeway with the artwork, especially if you print it multiple times. I’m also not the best at interior backgrounds. I mean, I learned to draw in perspective in the 8th grade and can technically _do_ a background, but when you’re trying to do a comic, I can’t be as slow as I am to draw them or else the comic will take unnecessarily long to finish. What’s really slow for me is the actual thought process. When I recently did a background, it was thinking up of this character’s kitchen _and_ the perspective that made me take so long to think of things. If I draw a BG from a reference, it’s easy, when I’m coming up with it on my own, I find that I’m really uncreative. This method can really help because with that, I can _just_ think about the room or the design of the BG, and then putting it into perspective is just executing that. This tip is going to save so much time!

I don't know if this works for everyone, but for the second one, you might want to outline the area you want to color.

Really interesting one I've seen that apparently Mangakas use is like they draw out a paper sketch floor/wall plan, and fold it into like a flat paper doll house. You could then take pictures at different angles, folding down the walls, etc. And like. I imagine if ur gonna be drawing a room over and over this would be helpful.

[@vaporean_boylove.0w083]

[@Treegona]

The hack at 7 minutes can also be used to re-create the same room you had before, if you keep the floor plan as a reference. You can just copy it and re-distort it to give a different perspective. The foot hack might be a good/semi-good starting point. Might work better if you're using a reference for how the angling of the foot shapes the look of the sole.

[@vaporean_boylove.0w083]

The floorplan hack can literally give you the power to make Ref-Sheets for specific rooms, or an efing house.

Depending on my resting expression at the time, my eyebrows can be low enough that they just barely overlap with my eyes. From my 1st person perspective, I can actually often see my own eyebrows when I look up. Though, like how you explained, they still go beyond the corners of my eyes, not on the inner side, but on the outer side. Today I learned that the inner side of my eyebrows line up with the inner corner of my eyes.

I think your art style is naturally fluid, because your lineart is less “planned” and more confidently drawn. I used to have very consistently stiff lineart, but I started using my sketch in the final piece and it definitely helped keep the dynamics!

8:00 that hack is the best thing that ever happened to me

[@mayomadness9197]

This is uploaded at the perfect time, I’ll have nothing to do later so I’ll try these! Ty!

[@khaoslee]

That room layout hack is a revolutionary discovery to me

[@rubys.shibanigans]

Oh I LOVE that perspective room hack!!! I learned point perspectives in my community college art class and it takes such a long time, so much use of the ruler and making sure measurements are right... This looks really fun and easy to use. I definitely want to try it out next time I draw

[@rw8160]

I feel like the first one is almost on the right track, the distance between your eyes is one eye length, but I think they made the nose and, as you said, eyebrows too small.

[@habitualaddictionstudios]

Oooo OOo do you critique?? I wouldn’t mind if you critiqued my work. 🤷🏾‍♂️ Shit would be cool!😬

[@Akari_Yuu]

The second one is one I've been doing for a while ~ I tend to sketch very cleanly to the point that I decided that there's no point in doing lineart. I just clean up the sketch, and there you go! I honestly wonder how I did lineart before,,,

[@chisatsumiko]

the perspective hack sounds absolutely amazing. i’ll definitely give it a shot when i’m in the mood to try out interior sketches

[@jalisaramos4792]

I just tried the floor plan hack and WOW it’s changed my mind about drawing backgrounds!! I always hated drawing backgrounds especially bedrooms and the floor plan hack helped so much and was really fun to use, I was a bit confused at first but after playing around i got the hang of it, I definitely recommend

[@ArtDiariess]

Ima early for once and I want to say that you motivate me to draw whenever I’m feeling down on my art and I really like your style and you should be proud for how far you have come 💛

[@Sandwichscoot]

Just got the notification! Love your art vids 😊

[@ghostgem27]

I have never truly done line art. It's always been the sketch, and I've always liked the look and texture of the pencil brush, and I've spent so long doing physical art.

[@aidamou]

That perspective trick one was actually pretty awesome! But the others just feel like the artist may not under the basics of what they’re doing and are just looking for quick fixes.

[@lunaliss2626]

The thumbnail; E X I S T S Me; *Fan girl squeals over the art on **-my attempt-*

[@Bones0fFiction]

10:30 hahahahah refresh your perspective on perspectives-

[@skylerjayy9956]

I love how you draw arms! It’s so simple but yet your art ends up so GOURGOUS! 💕😚

[@ezranotbridger9530]

the first art hack was actually taught to me in art class, the only difference is the eyebrows aren't supposed to be added using the circles

[@no910]

Omg i missed you so much!!! 💕💕

[@1spoon147]

13:00 taken out of context this is hilarious

[@qwertyuiop.lkjhgfdsa]

lol

[@shadowdemonaer]

Good grief that perspective one... I am super duper in love!! I am really glad I saw this!! Can't wait to try it and see how it goes!!!!!!

[@aharrypotterfan5951]

4:10 dint know if you see this but if you feel it doesn’t fill enough when you fill you hold down until a blue line shows in the top and you can adjust the flood

[@Ziteymeow]

0:49 .. WHY DOES IT LOOK LIKE A PENI-

[@the_roach_king.]

I’m pretty sure that was the joke but she just didn’t pick up on it 😭😭

[@Ziteymeow]

@@the_roach_king. she probably picked up on it, there is no way she is that dense

[@luna.fairy.]

I subbed to u fsr 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@coquettejohnnycade]

5:20 it looks oike there are animal skulls on her shoulders, I like that

[@luna.fairy.]
