Personally, drawing in anime is style is just, drawing realistically, but in the most un realistic way possible, ik that doesnt make any sense but that's how I think of it
It depends on how cartoonish your style is but you need alot of knowledge on human anatomy and from different angles and perspectives, especially if you draw full body poses. And for the face knowledge on the skull makes it easier
it took me years just to get semi-good at drawing in an anime style, and you practically mastered what took me years in just 3 HOURS?!?!?! You have earned my upmost respect.
Great video. For all of you commenting or thinking about how you’ve been drawing for x amount of time and haven’t made as much progress, be mindful that time isn’t the determining factor for progress - value is. It takes time to produce value but you can’t get value out of time alone, you could draw a sphere for an hour and still be no better at drawing them compared to someone who had a plan for the same hour to deconstruct, experiment, and learn. Use your time and constantly (and honestly) evaluate what you’re doing to look for ways to improve. Don’t be discouraged, and don’t let anyone tell you it’ll take years to “get good” like so many claim - there’s plenty of artists in their teens with technical skills that completely trump those in their 60’s, coming from the same position of raw talent. Only you can determine how long it’ll take by how you decide to utilize your time.
I get it’s sarcasm, but you seriously could easily learn if you spend a few hours a day only studying and learning to do art. It would only take a few months to a year to get to a competent level with enough dedication. To a master level it could take anywhere between a few years and 20 years. Really hone in on one thing and get good at it, whether that be hands, body, butt, eyes, nose, feet, whatever. Spend roughly 20 hours on each subject matter trying to do something different each time with it. 20 hours is more than enough to really have a good knowledge of something very specific. Use shape language and build up to detail and then perspective. If you understand something at its most simple level then the complex levels are a lot easier to master.
Adrei: learns how to draw an absolutely decent and proper anime in just a week. Me drawing for almost a year and still cant draw properly: 🤡 I'm not a clown.. im the whole goddamn Circus.
You're not alone. Same here . I'm not trying to make you bad or anything (^^") All we can possibly do is still practice, even if it's just little doodles....
@Paul Holding I'm sorry you feel that way :( Art isn't easy to be honest..... Especially when it comes to perspective and color rules, but I believe you can still do it.
i've been drawing for two years and only started seriously learning few weeks ago and i can see a great improvement in my art that would've taken me months to get if i continued practicing the way i was. i would recommend watching videos on 'how' to practice stuff (by marc brunet and naoki saito) cause it really helped me to improve faster by knowing what i have to work on step by step.
Art takes patience. You see, I've been drawing for almost 4 years. And I think my art is good. I don't mean my art is the same as Picasso or other artists. But I've been training, studying the anatomy whenever I can, learning to colour, trying new things and most importantly having fun. So You can do it! keep believing! :)
tbh I've had a little bit of experience with art but in a different style like doodle, realism, etc. Ive been drawing my whole life, but I only took it seriously about 2 years ago. anime style is kind of a unique style for me and yeah, its something u can't just make in a week or two. So where am I going with this? Art takes time guys, I won't deny that my experience with other art style really gave me a boost while practicing this one. *So my advice* : Don't try to do all things at once, try to master the things that you think you're good at, and once u think you've improved at that certain thing.. then move to the next one. You've to take things little by little so you won't get overwhelmed by all the things u have to digest at once.. I dont know if that make sense, but I hope it helps! stay safe♥😀
My art skills fall within still life and landscape, so it's always been hard for me to draw people, let alone anime, which seems to break every law of the human anatomy, but still looks good.
I bought a drawing tablet since I wanted to learn how to do animation however I need to actually sketch so I wanted to see peoples progress sketching and then I saw this video and made me happy because I can go over my mistakes and be good at It. (It obviously takes time)
it's funny how when you draw an anime character, you make the architecture of the head and the body, while when I draw an anime character, I just go draw the god damn clothes first
In my own personal experience, no amount of 'how to draw' videos or books can teach you how to draw properly. It's there to steer you in the right direction but nothing beats constant practice and repetition. In the video I notice he studied body anatomy but he ended up not using it while drawing the body of deku. It's not wrong, as long as you use a method you're comfortable with and you're happy with the end result. And I'm just throwing this out there, but NEVER compare yourself to other good artists. That's where you start demotivating yourself. Drawing is subjective. No matter what other people say, if you think it's good, then it's good.
Not to take away from your accomplishments but of course you're gonna do a better job if you draw with reference than if you just draw something you're not familiar with from your head. A more fair comparison would've been drawing both from your head or both from reference.
@@marak.2115 Finally someone else noticed. He is lit just "trasing" here. not even really using it as a reference. This is so much easier then making something while using some references.
I think these dude on the view already know how to draw cause I can feel his hands. Everytime he draw a begginer sketching it feels like his doing it on purpose, cause I can differentiate a good artist, pro artist and begginer artist. Every pro artist has the vibe and the strokes of pencils he/she draw in the surface of the paper. No matter the pro artist draw something Bad but the outcome is still good.
I want to be a animator when I grow up so i am learning as much as I can trying to improve my skills. Although my dad doesn’t want me to do anything with anime except drawing it but what may dad don’t know won’t hurt him. I tried drawing Mr Aizawa and it turned out like you’re drawing, not perfect but good enough. But yours is still better
Using reference from jojo would have made you improve a bunch quicker imo. And the bast way to shade for manga/anime art style has to be cross-hatching (many old mangas use smudge tho).
Well done! The process was awesome! Different animes have different artstyle,and that is what makes anime so appealing(in my opinion,just me :D),perhaps you can also find your own unique artstyle that suits you and redraw other characters again!
I've been drawing since i was old enough to hold a pen and in the last 10 years have been trying to go more for realism.. so going completely against that and doing an anime style is the most mind bending thing for me and i just cant do it even if i was being held at gun point. its so damn weird to think about it idk
You art came out great! and you were even doing well beforehand, BUT.... every time I see someone draw a circle with a dozen or so small lines I die inside.
Inking is in timing and technique, i don't think you should hold your breath. Instead keep your hand completely steady and use your wrist for smaller details. For bigger lines use your arms motion, to get a clean line. Try doing it in a single stroke of your arm and with practice it can be done quicker for a different look depending how you want the line. Slower makes the line thicker. Really fast makes it thinner based what your using to ink of course. Stoping the line early by taking your hand off the paper can often make it look hairy. My biggest mistake when i started inking.
Tf HOW DO PEOPLE PROGRESS THAT MUCH THAT FAST EBSLEZSHSKEHDHSH OH MY I started drawing since I was 4 so it has been 10 years- (tho a year of artblock in 2020 🗿🤚) I know this advice might sound overused, but what I saw was that you made many repeating strokes (also that is called chicken strokes if I remember correctly?) when sketching at the start of the video, and with the progress that reduced, keep going with that and for everyone out there try doing confident lines and not many strokes in one place, because with the many strokes making one line, you kinda loose the proportions and such, and Im glad to see how much you progressed and your will to do this challenge is amazing dude and we need more people like you to inspire others! ❤️
Ive been drawing for 7 months and i did make progress not a lot just to "looks ok" i dont have an art style rn but whats messing me up is the anatomy Ik the basic shapes and all but its just bad not so bad but just "keep practicing" and i could do better but as they say "perfect practice makes it perfect" not even sure if im practicing the correct way
For me when it came to art I've always liked drawing I just didn't know how much until I stopped at nine years old, turned ten and all of a sudden I just started being able to draw things I didn't know I could
i like how if you draw dragon ball frieza saga style like me nearly all of this becomes irrelevant because it's not that often you draw round shapes except for the muscles
“A little experience in art” probably explains how you’re able to do that in a week and i cant as it would take me a whole 5 years to believe in myself to do that
danm you just practice that in 1 week and ur art is that good I'm impressed tbh I just know how to use anatomy at the start of this year so I think I'll better one day btw nice art
can u show us some tips and tricks o how to draw the layout of anime with positionings and the fullbody as well as what not to do when drawing anime and what u should do ^.^
