How to Draw Fight Scenes 

Step 1: Draw rectangle Step 2: Sketch basic shapes Step 3: Fill in the details!

Does any one else have those days were you draw something really good then the next day everything you draw sucks

This man would've been the jazza of RU-vid if he kept posting

The butcher knives that chefs use I thought were called like meat cleavers or something. I think that's so? Nice drawing btw.

They are fighting over the last slice of pizza

Where I usually mess up when I draw. 0:00.

10 years ago and this video is still reaching us artists ❤ I cannot imagine how much you have improved by now but I do hope you and everyone that this video has reached have an amazing and fullfilling life!

This dude's voice is so calm

I like his voice. Makes me want to listen.

Rectangular shaped blades used by chefs, cooks and, butchers to chop meat are called cleavers. Now I'm getting an idea of a gourmet knight who slays evil dishes with a magic meat cleaver.

2012: RU-vid algorithm nahhhh 2020: RU-vid algorithm yeahhhh

one important tip: THUMBNAIL SKETCHES Before you go into drawing the full scene, draw some small rectangles and make a couple of throwaway images in them to get the main idea of what you want to draw (the pose, the composition, and the framing) onto paper. This'll save A LOT OF TIME and ensure that you're drawing exactly what you want to draw.

twinkle twinkle little star why is art so flippin hard up above the world so high I cant draw the other eye twinkle twinkle little fudge Oh gosh-what the?-I GIVE UP!!

I actually learned a lot from this single vid, SUBSCRIBED.

I remember watching this as a kid and looking at how he did perspective and now I know I was looking at it completely wrong now as a professional artist I have a replica of my own characters in this drawing and it’s always a nice little reminder on how far I’ve come

Dang, I remember watching this as a kid when it was only out for a week… here we are today and I’m a professional artist now :D I will say that this video didn’t push me in the right places to become a pro, but I did have a lot of fun drawing and reiterating that character in the foreground. His coolness stuck with me for quite some time (and I still have my first “proper” sketchbook all of the way from 2013 with a drawing of him; I drew on loose printer paper before that). If you’re someone who likes to draw and you’re wondering where to go next (whether it’s to become a pro or just as a hobby), I definitely suggest looking at channels like Bobby Chiu, Proko, or Trent Kaniuga. All of these people are professionals with very rich content that will surely get you to the next level you’re aiming for and beyond. Happy art-ing, y’all

the title should be "How to Draw"

When You Realize This Was Made 7 Years Ago

Whenever I actually draw something good, my body just forbids me from ever doing it again

this was made 8 years ago... interesting ..

he predicted For Honor...

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand subscribed. aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand not doing homework tonight.

Guard: "Have you seen those people from hammerfell? They have *Curved swords, CURVED SWORDS* "

Me: *Draws a cool posture* Also me: *Thinking it will be a good drawing* Also me: *Draws the real character* The Character: why did you even draw me Me: *Disappointed*

Thank you for teaching us how to draw fight scene. But really, THANK YOU for showing us a drawing technique. Now I could create my characters better incredibly.

The rectangular blade used by chefs and such is called a "big rectangle choppa" it is favoured by chefs because they love rectangles. Notice their tall hats. You may think they are cylinders but when drawn on a 2D surface they are rectangles.

while I was watching him draw I told myself it was easy, but when I was drawing I didn't know if I was drawing dinosaurs or humans

My brain: easy My heart: easy My body: easy My hands: easy Me thinking about line art: hard

I am making my own comic with your techniques

sometimes i draw something one day, think its really good, and I look at it a day later and look at it as complete shit. Edit: wow I came back here after 4 years and realize I have 1.3k upvotes, Thanks! . . . . . . . By the way, Bryson Gilkey copied me. >: O

This was one of the earliest videos I watched when I started drawing. Nostalgia overload lol

Damn. This dude teached me everything about anything I struggled to learn in a single video (funnily) focused on fight scenes. BIG LIKE for you, man.

how to draw a perfect circle 1.draw head 2.earse it except circle 3.you got 1 fucking perfect circle

That's really nice. I can draw but I can never get the pose right because I can never get an agreement between the pose I drew and what I am thinking of, but this video helped me realize what I needed to do.

This guy's my main motivation for drawing other than Takeshi Obata. Watched this when I was young and when it first came out and it made we want to improve. Thank you

Thanks this helped me figure out how to draw a fight scene for my comic

this is incredible. I use to draw when i was younger and as a grew up I just slowly stopped drawing. Watching this and other drawing videos really is making me want to get back into it. This fight scene came out amazing.

there are comments saying how people think they cant draw, and as a pretty decent artist, i always wonder why people seem to be bad at drawing, and then i look at some famous artists and i wonder why they are so good at drawing...

Bro I’m smiling as the drawing gets more detailed. This is pretty cool

you wouldn't guess how much time i rewatched this just to remember and when i got the final results it was amazing I GIVE YOU MY THANKS!!

DUDE YOUR A PRO WITH THOSE SKILLS YOU CAN CREATE AN ANIME

It hurts so much every time he erases something

Very good drawing, if you trace that final image with a thin black pen and then shade/color it, that would look even more professional than it already does

Almost 10 years later and you're still helping people draw. Namely me

i don't know why but i reeaaly love rough prelim sketches

2:50 that's actually already better than my best drawings xD

Bro, this has helped me so much! Thank you! I've been struggling with Anatomy for so long.

Alot of what he said can be use in any scene! Not just fighting This man is brilliant 💡

5:21 That looks better than anything I can draw

Wtf that is so cool 😱 And he's voice is making me sleep it's so relaxing 😌 Lol I Fall Sleep When I Awake The Video Is Finished

Thank you so much, I’ve always not been very good at fight scenes (or really art in general) so just following along drawing and listening really taught me a lot and I can’t thank you enough

This is great! Also this is so calming

You my friend, just earned a subscriber

Great video. As a beginner in the drawing universe, I found that very useful. thanks a lot!

This was so sick! haven’t drawn in 4 years trying to get back and was failing quite a bit this helped

This was amazing advice and the finishing look is better than anything I’ve ever seen!

2:05 >"like a square or a rectangle" >500x better than what i could ever draw beforehand

I so love the session... Just this one session and I already understand how to place the characters and at what angle... I didn't know how to before 😋

I still come back to this because there is so much gold here especially for constructing cinematic scenes

Well I've seen many other channels and I have to say your voice is oddly welcoming and I love your explanations. For some reason I feel like it's easier to understand what your doing compared to others and I feel as though I just learned something that I was looking for. Thank you for your expectation and I love how you break it down as you go.

This tutorial is incredible! Following your tips for not just the poses but the blocking with anatomy was so intuitive and it legitimately improved my art pretty much instantly. I am trying to self-learn art, so my previous process for anatomy was a bit lackluster, but this simple blocking technique you use just worked so well for me. Thanks for the great tutorial! I said, 7 years after uploading, so koizu won't even read it, but for real this was super helpful so if he does read it i hope he knows how good of a teacher he is

This is fantastic , it’s wonderful to see how you design a piece 😊

I remember being a kid and almost perfectly recreating this drawing and I felt so awesome, unfortunately I stopped drawing but I’ll always remember this video for the confidence it gave me in creating my own right scenes. And who knows, maybe when I get back into drawing a pay a little visit to this video once more.

It took me 1 hour to do just a simple sketch. Just shows his mastery at sketching/ drawing, bravo.

I 100% love your armor and weapon design. I love armor but I can only rarely nail down a design for it that I like. I generally struggle with trying to find a mix between unarmored and full plate, so getting myself to just add a breastplate and standalone pieces can be hard. I draw weapons all the time but finding ones that look good in perspective is rough as well. Thank you!

It’s looks like absolver game art style🔥🔥

I love the part in drawing where everything seems to come together, and then you look at it like "Jeezz, did I really just draw that?!?!"

This actually unlocked something in my brain, thank you so much

Koizu, you always had big time talent, now you have a big time channel. Great to see that your talent is being recognized! -Merrill

can i borrow your pencil because there's something in that thing which makes your works fantastic

I really appreciate the simplicity in your drawing style. Keep up the good work. 👍👍

Nice man you really helped me out... I was struggling in drawing in this kind off perspective really appreciate it👊

great video koizu! really helped me with the step by step!

I am Brazilian , and I really liked the video , I already signed up , and I want to thank you for putting subtitles , so I translate automatically and I can absorb the content , thank you very much !!

Man, this video still comes up in my mind as a guide whenever I draw after so many years😂

YOU ARE AN AWESOME DESIGNER I LOVE YOUR ARMOUR DRAW STYLE :DDD

Thank you, this helped a lot! ❤️

Best video that has ever helped me with art, thanks so much

I remember watching this so long ago, Its been so long :') glad it was recommended again

Thx I realized that I gotta stop being concerned with symmetry when drawing from different perspectives

this is an excellent video. you are a great teacher

Woah this was the first thing I drew “good” I,ve gotten so much better thank you!

This is very simple but quite important step. This one helped me so much, thank you!

koizu: It's easy, i'm not putting any extraordinary into it. after he said that Me: WTF THIS IS AMAZING ALREADY

5:42, that would at least take 5 hours for me to draw...

thank you so much bro i’ve been working a lot on drawing manga and other things and this helped so much

This guy draw like a character in solo levelling's drawing..... Very easy to understand n awesome angle , very interesting to watch

yea doesnt take time smh took me 10 hours to draw a circle that looks like an oval

Why are people telling him what kind of sword it is? It's been 5 years. I think he knows...

5:27 this is already 100x better than my finished sketches

Dude, your art is EPIC!!!

omg this was posted 9 years ago? imagine how good he is now!

Beautiful!

great work my guy. i know its an oldie but as a beginner, super helpful

TY RU-vid for Recommend this MasterPiece

Hi Koizu; I'm only 7 minutes in and you taught me so much already,others never get to the point like you do.Your an excellent instructor.and I just Subscribed.You have an excellent way of teaching the basics I've struggled with.Thank You.

Step 1: Practice shading sketches of already made drawings. And make it look real, that will give you the practice of gentle strokes while you draw. Step 2: Take a refrence picture and convert it into simple shapes. You will then have a good understanding of how it's done. Step 3: Visualise your own picture and then do the same thing Step 4: You can do the same like this guy with some inspiration

His Rough drawing is also looking awesome

Thanks for this. You made it so easy to follow along!

11 years old great work 😍
