This Makes Anatomy 10x Easier (no exaggeration)

[@KoongYe]

I maybe wrong in this but what I really like about pelvis is that the shape of it doesn't change much. It doesn't inflate or deflate like ribcage, it doesn't bend like the spine, it doesn't twist like arm. So I can use pelvis as the reliable starting point.

[@mrs.dibujandodibujos]

If you are good and know something of anatomy thats not wrong, In fact that is the purpose of the structures, I for the pelvis I have to make a trapezoid which for each angle is another figure, but if with a circle or whatever you can draw then it is fine, since it is not mandatory to even use structure, only beware of anatomical errors such as characters that have the torso above the legs, It is a common mistake since the characters are like Roblox or Minecraft

I hope you see this: So I am a young artist who didn't understand learning that much Two years ago, more like 5, I watched a channel called zhc. I got inspired to draw so much, and wanted to look good, so I copied a superhero landing, and showed it off in a home made drawing competition at a youth center. I drew the superhero landing Spiderman pose, and the other guy from the competition laughed. So that's where I started off, using his negativity as a motive to get better. Two years pass, and still inspired by zhc, stumbled upon his 3 books video, got a Michael Hampton book, and started to copy his gestures daily, sometimes finished process sketches with no direction. Hard to explain. I did that for two years, and here I am , having learned nothing. I am sad that I've wasted two years. The good thing is that I've stumbled upon your list of skills pdf, and FINALLY IMPROVING! Right now, working on the angles, because I drew so many people back then, have a pretty good sense of proportion, because of Michael hampton, I know where to look for The muscles. Anyway, for gesture, all I had to do was think through angles. I wish I could show you my gesture drawing I did, seeing through the angles and the landmarks. I have wasted so much time, and thanks to you I found the holes of my skills so far. I'm bad at explaining things, but if you read anything from this, thank you You really helped me If only I could show you my gesture drawing :)

[@GSPV33]

AWESOME! Happy for you, mate!

[@ahuman32478]

If you enjoyed drawing, then those 2 years weren't wasted at all. Also, where can I find the skill list PDF you mentioned?

[@itsliliok]

hey i'm late to the party, but i just want to say, i spent closer to 15 years doing that! i know it wasn't a TOTAL waste, but it sure bugs me. always thinking of how good i could've been had i known how to study. 2 years to learn how to teach yourself is not bad, i swear. and now one year later, if you've stuck with it, i bet you learned a lot.

[@ShintogaDeathAngel]

It can be really hard to find objectively good art training advice, and having drawn for two years you’re still going to have some skill to build on. And every artist is going to have pieces and exercises that just didn’t work out! I started drawing at about 4 years old, was self taught and everyone who knew me would praise my ability, but aside from college the lack of formal training really shows. So I’m kind of going back to basics with the fundamentals. Better late than never lol

[@judywiese9698]

The way you break things down has been so helpful and the pelvis pants idea has made a big difference for me... as someone who can get bogged down in details the way you can cut to the essence of things is fantastic!!! Love your work🤗

[@lovelifedrawing]

Thanks Judy!

[@MegaC12]

i used to confuse the obliques with the asis points. great video

[@ekramahmed100]

Appreciate your note of "it's the most efficient thing to know about gesture and figure drawing". We always feel like we might miss a sensitive information Always thankful to your vids in figure drawing , no such a teacher would explain them this way ♥️ Best of luck

[@LoveBystroem]

As someone trying to study anatomy, here is my PERSONAL perspective. Its about 70/30 for me. Learning deep anatomy has been super useful in every area of my fogure deawing and drawing in general. It teaches your eyes to be sensitive to every detail which allows me to choose what to draw more precicely. However most of what you’ll get out of anatomy you do get from the first 30-odd percent I feel

[@flea1098]

Best channel ever Please don’t stop making these lessons

[@mateocardo8382]

Very useful, thank you!

[@jdougkorlann9700]

The pelvis area was difficult until this video. I appreciate that you are sharing helpful information.

[@capneyeball575]

You should get Nobel prizes in art and engineering for the Pelvis Pants™, plus at least one in literature for coining that name. Where do I nominate you? The video was very helpful btw, thanks.

[@lovelifedrawing]

Thank you! I also believe pelvis pants deserves the Nobel

[@nothingtoseehere8771]

Those pants are so much more intuitive. I always struggled when drawing the pelvis as a box like I see it in so many other anatomy tutorials

[@juandominguezmurray7327]

awesome as always!

[@alito_luca]

You are the Colin Farrell of art. Thank you very much for all your content, it is really gold!!! 🙌🙌

[@gat-susama7409]

Beautiful video

[@kasiako355]

I love the idea of the pelvis pants, thank you so much! I have never liked the pelvis box idea, but this one is gold! So helpful 💖

[@EugenioJaranillo-dn6yf]

I Spen tome practicing about 2 hours every day so know I now practice IS the only way to sudsed thank You Gracias

[@justtamu]

Its only been a few minutes since watching these videos and I can already see a huge difference in my work . I shall keep studying and working smart. The way you explain things is life changing. THANK YOU!

[@mosslars38]

Fantastic advice on the pelvis! I work as an art teacher and this will for sure make teaching my classes a lot more effective.

[@falcongreens2570]

Amazing tutorial

[@EugenioJaranillo-dn6yf]

I have BEEN following Kenzo it Is VERY HELP FULL with Your teaching AND practice it's working perfectly gracias

[@lovelifedrawing]

Great to hear!

[@georgemohr7532]

Thank you! 5 stars IMHO

[@suefraser5257]

As always, you explain things in simple terms with great graphics. Thanks Kenzo and I'm looking forward to the fresh eyes challenge to help me move forward.

[@blanejnasveschuk6351]

Excellent synopsis. Practical and useful information for pelvis orientation while drawing. TY

[@salparedo]

Thank you for this my man!

[@AboutArchie]

This is the kind of content that keeps us coming back. Thanks!

[@calumgibbons1602]

I've been struggling so much with making my figures look dynamic, countless videos watched - this one coupled with the ribcage video explains it so well, I'm drawing the best figures I ever have instantly! Thanks so much!

[@mannyhoolin4662]

Good stuff, thanks!

[@bijoykumar1971]

Love the tutorial... So much info shared so clearly and non too ambiguous.. Thanks most of the videos are so confusing they actually don't come down two the student level..

[@aceofspades1001]

On day 8 of the 10 day challenge you have on your membership site, Kenzo. Great buildup for learning and practice. Thanks very much.

[@davidallsebrook8523]

Clear and helpful lecture. Encouraging!

[@RafaelLimaVieira]

These videos of anatomy made simple are so good.

[@5i4v4sh]

Simple and informative, Thank You

[@richardsperling4827]

Really excellent explanation and explication. You make beautiful clarifications of difficult material.

[@syramoran9270]

Muchas gracias por este video, cambió por completo mi forma de ver la anatomía, principalmente de la pelvis que es lo que más me cuesta ubicar al hacer un dibujo. 💗

[@Moonbovine]

You’re a life saver! Thank you so much for these videos!!!

[@littlebighead4482]

Your videos have helped me so much, thank you!

[@brodiapunch]

Thank you so much! I've been studying pelvis anatomy recently and this is a life saver.

[@coddydimerda]

fundamental lesson! Very useful

[@sandhyas9364]

The Anatomy Police is sure to get you Kenzo!! 😀 Loved this video. You are the best teacher. I am going to do the Fresh Eyes challenge once again!

[@lovelifedrawing]

See you there Sandhya!

[@victoriousblade7909]

Thanks a lot for your video! Could you make a lesson about the middle section between the pelvis and the ribs? This is very difficult, especially when the body is moving strongly)

[@eshlost5604]

My prayers have been answered! Yay! Also happy new year

[@amiedupuyart5237]

You are amazing! Thank you so much❤

[@Randyrocker1]

This is one of your best presentations, thank you!

[@johnborron1059]

Magnificent, Kenzo. Got a lot out of that.

[@julian7434]

debating whether or not to use a box or the pelvis pants.

[@birgauan_ionut]

Pure Gold

[@laffy7204]

I like the pelvis pen and the ribcage idea because I have done plenty of those, but never really commited to it. I'm gonna commit

[@davidarguedas5735]

Awesome, thanks :D

[@kikolektrique1737]

Ah the pelvis my worst enemy. I can never seem to get it right Well that and hands

[@Andra1150]

yeah, can relate :D

[@lovelifedrawing]

Hope the vid helped :) I have similar level of simplification for hands coming later in the year

[@Gamer91-d6z]

Nice video 👍

[@TheImaginativeSachin]

sir do you have similar video on hands!

[@hollowedboi5937]

I’ve seen in a lot of concept art how they exaggerate the legs at the knees to be going in the other direction, but I didn’t know it was actually to model like in 8:08 that’s actually really cool to see!

[@ray-kx8ql]

Love these videos! Found your ribcage explanation video very eye-opening. do you have tips/plans for breaking down the relationship between the ribcage and pelvis? I find that connecting them is a struggle

[@lovelifedrawing]

That is a big part of the fresh eyes challenge :)

[@cheestle8677]

Does anyone know exactly where I should start as a beginner? I want to eventually get to drawing fanart, but I'm prepared to do a lot of studying and practising realism, perspective, gesture drawing etc. in order to get there. I'm just overwhelmed, it seems like there's so much to learn and I have no idea where I should focus at the beginning

[@keepyourshoesathedoor]

You’re gonna study regardless because that’s what you want to do. Just draw the pictures you want, you’ll improve. Do not think you have to constantly study and improve or you’ll stress out and burn out. You got this.

[@CS-jk1mt]

Thank you for simplifying! This is a good addition to Proko's tutorials about the Robo Bean :). Now I combine the Pelvis Box (Robo Bean) with your Pelvis Pants when I construct figures. I do wonder, on what height do you position the navel with respect to the ASIS points?

[@anastassiyakim7041]

Hi, Kenzo. I really enjoy the quality of library photos, but seems that not all of it available on LLD site. Do you have any plans to make all photos available for drawing purposes for some one payment subscription, smith like Croquis Cafe does? I will be the first one:) and thanks for all the tips and knowledge that you r sharing with us❤

[@lovelifedrawing]

Hey Anastassiya! We release a new photoset every month in the free library, and we do one every week for our study group. We might add a references only subscription or something in future :)

[@heiispoon3017]

finally!!! the pelvis!!!

[@ginny6365]

Helpful! Helpful! Helpful!🙃🙃🙃

[@martmart.]

8:25 oh so that term "box" in the phrase that says "i'm gonna destroy that box" possibly originated from artists doing figure drawings?? hmm

[@m.bauer2024]

Pelvis Presley... Sorry, it was stronger then me, thanks for effort and tips, of course :)

[@irmabecx4758]

Yeah, the math checks out. 90% easier. :)

[@lovelifedrawing]

Hehe thanks Irma!

[@sydene54]

Sorry, I missed last night, the 23rd (my birthday!)

[@minasahafi]

awsome

[@emn8521]

love this. but also i didnt know uncle roger could draw!

[@RedlineTougeJapan]

This dude almost looks like the almighty Monk of drawing

[@tiagostein4057]

"I have an youtube channel with a video about the pelvis" ... that is called only fans

[@brokencreationlordmegatrol3037]

I honestly draw a pear of pants

[@deleted_handle]

Ok but what if I want to draw a skeleton?

[@bandy-sk5889]

Calling it Pants make it so much more simple finding those points on some figures had me lost

[@zakradnopodkradnoy7031]

Мужики, слушайте! Василий Алибабаевич дело говорит😁

[@tofu2480]

learning this for free feels illegal. that big claim at the start turned out to be true

[@RomanesEuntDomus.]

This is false advertising. I tried it and it only made drawing easier by 8 - 8.5 X easier

[@kemalistaslanbey]
