Character design tips from a $90 class 

Can you review artwork please!

Same!

Same :D I enjoy playing flute as much as drawing, and flute is what I'm best at, so I'm pursuing that, But it's fun to draw too, who knows, maybe I can do both xD

Fr I'm learning Japanese just to make my stories real

@@ImaginaMoonie You don't need to use Japanese to make your stories ''real''. Tf? lmao

@@venomm4563 no I'm just saying that it feels like an actual conversation and since I like anime so why not

So fcking relatable 💀

Hello, Are the classes in English or they use English subtitles?

@@varees707 She speaks Korean and it has English subtitles. I think it was mentioned in the class description as well.

@@marethyu31 okay thank u, very much

Same except I’m bad at perspective

gesture drawing i think is best for dynamic poses

This reminds me the reason why I watched JoJo's, it gave me lot of ideas xd

I have a problem where I can create lots of poses but none of them seem to fit

make gesture drawing of the pose that you're thinking of and then use a 3D model in that pose or take a picture of yourself! This helps me a lot

When a video that says a character design has to "stand out" but the presenter is a generic white-haired boy with red eyes.

This is fakenews and has been debunked by Hiro Mashima himself :v

@@oexterminadordoteufuro6475 How so? Is there a video I can see or an article???

Subs I think

Coso stated Korean with subs

I think it is because Art Senpai said they also teach anatomy and perspective too?

That’s why u uave to but the course, he will not tell the private info that comes with the course

For real though

Loli aren’t children get over it there short women

Why tf are you watching a channel catering to ANIME WEEBS if you dont like it :P

@@goddessofchaos2679 bro wtf they are child-coded, I dont care if they are a petite adult or a 5000 year old dragon. If they have a body of a child, its illegal.

As my little brother would say, you'll end up "wasting" your money somehow anyway. The way I see it, Buy the course only if you're super serious about art and improving. Be clear on WHY you love art or want to improve exactly. What's your end goal? Free content is great and abundant but at some time you'll need heavier investment, especially if you take something seriously

Tbh, as an artist who has been drawing for over 8-9 years by now, its better to learn the fundamentals from free online YT tutorials rather than buying expensive art classes. I took a glance at the Coloso curriculum and most of it is stuff you can find online without paying (For example, Proko has amazing videos for anatomy. If you want more suggestions, judt ping me and I'll make a list). It's not guaranteed that a "good" artist is always a good teacher. Of course, if you like their style and want to learn about their specific techniques then go for it, but for a beginner, I'd reccomend investing in a good tablet first (due to my biases, I like screen tablets since they feel more natural vs. the pad ones where you look up at a monitor while drawing). If art is something that fits your interests, then a good tablet will last you for years and years. If you end up not liking art, you can store it away until you feel like drawing again in the future or resell it. If you already have a tablet, then thats great, I'd probably reccomend learning the basics as I mentioned before (and you can start literally anywhere that interests you like shapes, forms, proportions, colors, etc.)

Also adding on to my post and replying to S Wisdom, you dont need to spend major money to be invested in art. Motivation comes and goes, but what matters most is finding a purpose and sticking to it with hard practice. I started out with a pencil and paper doodling random anime characters, then switching to a mouse for digital. Once I was fully invested, I upgraded to a tablet with all the skills I learned from doing traditional art. Additionally, drawing is not only reading and watching theory, but also working on critical observational skills. You could pick an art piece you love and learn so much more by breaking it down yourself than what any other paid tutorial could show you. If you like anime styled stuff, I'd reccomend checking out Naoki Saito's Illustration channel where he teaches you how to break down other artists' work, or his vids on how to improve other peoples art. Most of his recent stuff is english subtitled. Peace and love on your art journey ✨️

@@goldfishcat this is so true! Focusing is really the key. You have to be SUPER CLEAR AND SPECIFIC on what you want to learn in a given timefram, or what you want to learn from a specific piece (is it the lighting, clothing folds? Etc)

It's totally normal to do the sketch, and then go on to the line art and then color. I personally skip line art because i never like how it looks "clean", but no lol your aren't doing anything wrong by doing it that way whatever you feel is best is good

I don't think??? most artists add colors before, I usually work from sketch > lineart > color > shading > final touches. If I don't want to do lineart I'll just sketch and color on top of or below the sketch layer depending how I feel, but it's not usually planned- you can do it however you want honestly, it really doesn't matter. There's no wrong way to make art, just play around until you find a process you enjoy doing the most.

I think they put color before all that because they already planned the whole character design, and they already know the colors

For costumes or characterizations?.

same, i have no idea what im supposed to search for references

never really, bc if i did it would look like an ugly furry oc

@@mikoartz5006 OH FR

@@mikoartz5006 Actually im refering to How amazing your character is! 🗿

@@Yveei which character bc i havnt posted any of my recent arnt in months XD

LMAO☠️☠️☠️

Ohh ive really been looking at Chyan's class!! Does it teach a lot on how to compose a scene for an illustration that draws the viewer's gaze well, can i ask? Because that's a really major thing I'm looking to improve on!

@@sugoish9461 it goes there, dont know if it is what you are looking for, but there is a class where he is drawing thumbnails for scenes from reference pinups, he explains why he is drawing the scene and how it is supposed to catch your eye, I just kinda saw the vid to know wht was in the course, but I havent reached the video to fully watch it and practice that part

@@seraph1690 Ohh tysm!! Do you know if you have lifetime access to the contents of the courses you buy? (And did the site up the prices by a lot to be able to have this deal on it??) Sorry if Im asking too many questions, tysm answering!

@@sugoish9461 welp, this promo "art sempai x colosso" isnt really a promo, those 90dll prices are always there the downside is that it is a 3 month trial... however u can pay full price, all courses are "70% discount" permanently and they always say "offer ends in like 5 days" when the day comes the counter just reset and well they add new days to "the promo", for example I paid Gharlieras and Chyan full price, they were 160 dll on release... and they up the price like 1 -5 dll per week, Gharliera is currently 213 dll, dunno about Chyan, but mogoon's is also 210 dll, still, if you pay those prices it is lifetime access, I just hate you have to download a weird "media player" that is called kolust or something like that, it kinda used to crash my computer when I opened League, cuz the player is a service that is always active, u can close it, but everytime u ooen coloso it kinda loads alm the stuff it needs and it is slower....

@@seraph1690 ​ Wait so if I pay the 90$ through the "promo" code going on, I don't get the lifetime access to those courses? I'm really considering purchasing specifically Chyan's course

Frrr, and he calls little kids lolis 💀 nah these ppl in the comments have to be npcs for not noticing

Ew.. I actually used to like this guy. I'm unsubbing.

@@sheri7542 ikr it’s so creepy like wtf 😦

​@@sheri7542Loli isn't an age think. It's a body type in anime.

@@Beeeeeewwwww Thats called child-coding.

Bro you had a reeaaallyy bad day at the time lmaaao

Not me, I don't agree with charging a person for 90 o more dollars just for a character design.

Yeah, honestly a lot of these "classes" like to prey on beginner artists who look at fancy art and go "if i spend XXX amount of money, can I draw like that too?". If an intermediate artist likes the stylization or rendering of a specific artist and wants to learn more about that specific technique, then its sort of okay. But $90 for character design tips alone? Character design is something you just gotta learn yourself by expanding your visual library, either from observing IRL fashion or other art and practicing to gain that intuition of "what looks right". Even if the classes contain other topics, its all stuff thats online with hundreds of free tutorials for the basics.
