Loomis. What the fuck, man.
I couldn't copy these diagrams to save my life. Anybody have tips for going through his "Drawing the Figure for all its Worth" book, because there are a LOT of these little "alright, just copy this skewed two-dimensional chart line for line, detail for detail and you'll be good" exercises that I am simply unable to do.
I don't feel like it's helping me, either. I end up just getting frustrated because I can't even adequately reproduce these sketches.

>> No.1719132

It's a pretty simple principle.

The figure is drawn eight heads tall. You draw this figure in a box that is subdivided into eight rows. It is easy to do this because you just divide the box in half, than divide each half in half, then divide each quarter in half.

The exercise just does this in perspective. Draw the box in perspective, divide it the exact same way and draw the proportions of the figure in the exact same way. Now you have the figure in perspective with accurate proportions, making it each to foreshorten.

>> No.1719138

>>1719132
I understand the general concept of what's going on here, it's the execution that has me all bent out of shape. Drawing something that is extremely skewed like this is really difficult for me, especially when it's flipped around on its side so that it's upside-down or laying horizontally. I don't have the eye or the ability to foreshorten a flat, 2D object that is normally 3D, or at least has some sense of form. It's like he's asking me to act as a resizing/skewing computer program.

>> No.1719140

This is a pretty basic skill. The box is basically an 8x2 grid. If you can't adapt a simple outline to a grid then I don't know what to tell you. Either practice more or find a new hobby.

Some blogs actually break it down but I would argue you should have a better understanding of linear perspective before going into Loomis.

Exactly right.

Figure Drawing for All It's Worth assumes you're going into it with a knowledge of the fundamentals, which are covered in Fun With A Pencil and Successful Drawing.

there could be a lot of reasons
maybe you just don't feel OK with going out of your comfort zone (wich is a skill by itself you need to aquire sooner or later)
or you just can't grasp it because It's still an advanced thing for you
tackle some 3d form excercises first
I'd recommend vilppu's course on figure drawing and to study basic perspective
practice form before getting to symbol like drawing as bodies or faces


but his is all my opinion, It totally depends on you

>> No.1719173

how does one go about making a diagram with more than one plane?

>> No.1719176

Perspective and planes are really easy for me. I can construct figure-like box shapes for the figure from any perspective. My issue is that i can't turn it into a solid form without feeling like I've lost a lot of that depth. I'm getting better, but it's still really difficult. Is the only thing you can really to do just study figures in every single perspective until you get a solid frame of reference?

people try to suck vilppu's/loomis cock and then say they are artists, just because they copied what someone did without doing anything themself, and that is about 90% of the pseudo artists today, 99% of /ic/

You're telling complete beginners they should just throw a big fuck you at great artists that have dedicated their lives to teaching others, and you just tell them to study anatomy, as if it were the complete apex of artistic ability.

Opening an anatomy book 'and just starting from there', is probably the stupidest thing anybody that wants to learn to draw could do.

maybe it's because i'll reach their "level" without sucking their dicks and you won't because you just think "it's the same thing even if I don't do it by myself" ? yeah that's one good thing to say.

"sucking loomis cock", only copying things, who in the fuck actually does that? how about you show me what the fuck you're talking about? you also have the entire catalog for that.

>special snowflake
it's obvious.
-you think everyone on /ic/ is a robot who think about loomis and vilppu all day , except you.
-you think everyone on /ic/ do nothing but copy other people drawings all day, except you.
-you think nobody is a real artist because they "copy" too much, except for you, you are a "real artist".
and you know that all of these are true (but also totally wrong). there is no denying that you think of yourself as a special snowflake.


and can i ask you something? can you even draw?
because to me it looks like you just enjoy making up theories about what makes one get good.
i also ask this because you don't seem to understand how this entire thing works at all.
loomis and vilppu are not going to guide anyone for the entirety of their development. they are just THE FIRST among a ton of books that you may or may not want to read. they are the same as a bunch of lectures by different experienced artists.

it's not like loomis or vilppu are a fucking guide for life. like i said, nobody ACTUALLY worships it like that. you're just making up an invisible enemy to make yourself feel more special.
but i doubt your art is that special. (well, in fact i doubt you can draw at all) but feel free to prove me wrong.

yes, and apparently you don't have the mental capacity to distinguish between worshipping something and appreaciating it's value.
and it's not even the general value, it is about its value to beginners. if you don't know what gestures are about or how to approach it, you can use those videos to get an better understanding.

mental capacity, that really seems to be all this is boiling down to. how can one not see the value in books and lectures? if nothing else, you get to peek into an experienced artists mind and get an idea about what these people are thinking about when working.
there is absolutely no reason to be this much of a purist. i highly doubt you learned everything by yourself. you most likely had books, teachers or artists you used as guides and inspiration along the way.
that is, if you can draw at all.

dumbest thing said so far, perspective has nothing to do in here, the difference between both is the anatomical knowledge, and the fact that one can't do a line or curve without scratching.

>speed is not important when learning.
it took him an hour, a full hour, to do a very passable pose, and claims he knows what art and anatomy is about. again, he claims he knows what he's doing. while the other guys did a better and more detailed job in 5mins.

Not OP, but I have a question regarding loomis as well.

I'm reading "fun with a pencil" but pic related page makes no sense to me. So the browline should be the middle of the ball, the second half of the ball is the next section, then the next two parts go off the ball, and the very bottom of that is the chin?

Or the browline is the middle of the ball, halfway between the browline and the top of the ball is the hair line, halfway between the brownline and the bottom of the ball is the nose line, and an extra section going down is the chin? If so, why in pic related does the noseline look like the bottom of the ball? Perspective?

so you're still feeling special?

also that woman didn't take me the entire duration of your little run.
i was done and went to do some chores because you said >>1720688.

also you're getting something mixed up here. this was never about ref and life drawing, this was about books and lectures.
ref/life drawing only consists of maybe 10% of my time. but that's only because i'm lazy. but even with that it i can see the benefits.
but back to the point: i did use some vilppu and hampton along the way, and there is no reason why i shouldn't have.
what you don't understand is that is that this doesn't mean my entire anatomical knowledge comes from, or is dependant on vilppu.

and no, you still don't have the right to talk. your worldview is simply too black and white.
you need to get that superiority complex out of the way. your drawings need to be much better for that.

I think I remember you from a thread a couple of months ago. If it was you, you acted the exact same way. As if you were better than everyone else when you were mediocre at best.
Your artwork hasn't improved from the looks of it either. And that was back in February/March.

Keep this attitude and you'll continue to go nowhere in art. Nobody likes interacting, let alone working with people like you.

then let me ask you this, you think i learned everything from a drawing book? or was it from actually drawing, just like you?

that's why i say you're viewing everything in black and white, you make up a invisible enemy to feel superior towards.
bottom line is, you have are terribly deluded about where you are standing right now skill wise.

oh well, all those facepalms requires a lot effort, was a fun thread, teaching some kids their art lesson. I will now go take a deserved rest, while you still try to "feel" vilppu's cock penetrating you.

Moral of the story, /ic/ is just a shitty board, where 99% of it's people are pseudo artists too lazy to do work by themselves. can't whipe their own asses. "Learn anatomy to be able to draw anatomy ? nah fuck dat". >muh life-drawing and muh vilppu r gon' mak me gud.
