The BEST environment design EXERCISE for BEGINNERS 

Thank you for the reminder, I often forget to go simple. Using these tips I just sketched the best castle I've ever drawn from imagination!

watching this on 2023, it's been 4 years since this was posted and was strongly helpful and not exactly "out of date", art is really atemporal knowledge

This was exactly what I've been looking for. I've got books and books on perspective but there just seemed to be a block. Then I saw this video, tried the exercises, and was really happy with the depth I saw in what I was making, even though they were just triangles with some value added. I knew it was working when, while watching TV one night, I saw a shot of a hallway...halls and sconces and doors and stuff, right? But for a second, I SAW THE MATRIX and flashed on the really simple shapes that were creating that depth. Thanks for setting me on the right path! I'm going to tell folks about you on my blog.

This is so helpful! I’ve put all my eggs into the character art basket for a few years now and this is a great help to finally start getting into environment design!!!

Finally i found an idea for adding the environment on an already drawn character by converting to basic shapes and proportions. Great tips

This is a wonderful idea of an exercise, Tyler! Thank you so much for this video. I’m sure this will help me a lot from now on!

I like the fundamentals and the explanations you give in your videos - thank you for making them ! and keeping them available for free :)

I like your philosophical approach to things...

In programming there is a thing called “KISS” which means ... keep it simple stupid , very applicable of what you said, thanx for the tutorial very appreciated.

Thank you so much for explaining this so well..I can feel that I can draw environment design better..^^

Damn, didn't know cypher from matrix was such a great art teacher

This was useful thank you so much!

You mentioned adding and subtracting shapes, could you show how you would that?

thank you so much :D

thanks

subscribed and bookmarked

thanks you forr the vid sir

Yes, I remember that exercise from your CGMA course! I should give it another try, to see if I notice some improvement in these last few years :)

Solid

Thank you for such great lesson. Can you just show us how you while do? It's great if you so we get more clear Idea. Thank you

Thanks Tyler, I always had a problem with "what to draw".. and I just give up faster this way and feel like "meh". But now thanks to you, I didnt think of thinking basic shapes would be such a good tool! But a question: I couldnt decide which to start off with, character or environment drawing, I thought If I do character first, anything else gets easier to learn, but I think its not true. So.. do I have to know how to draw characters if I want to get hired as an environment artist?

Omg when I saw your webcam feed the first thing that cames to mind was: "Kane lives!" Thats from Command And Conquer btw. Now I will continue the rest of the video.

Oh my God God bless recommendations I subbed

if someone could please help out, what should I use to design environments virtually?

Exercises for colour Beginners PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE :)

God damn you Cypher

A question about your gumroad tutorials: There exists a' fundamentals of design part 1' available somewhere to buy together with parts 2 and 3?

As a student, we feel like we're slowly running out of time before we need to have a portfolio.... any recommendations on how many of these you should do before you can work on the real finishing of a piece?

My god, i was apporaching this all wrong xDD i was going simple but not THIS simple and i was getting frustrated; its hard to start over once you learn so much, i practiced and polished do many skills but i never touched Environments- not even simple ones.

cylinder design is environmental friendly.

any books on design or shape design from a concept art perspective

The Discord link says its invalid. :(

I have to study a lot...I'm slowly watching the video and seeing a lot. Thank you.
