No I'm tired of YouTube videos
They're all draw the rest the owl when we really need to learn the underlying fundamentals of our existence to understand objectively good art

>>	Anonymous Thu Dec 3 23:44:36 2020 No.5040762 >>5040732 I understand everything Youtube artists said really. You're just being lazy.

>>	Anonymous Fri Dec 4 00:04:23 2020 No.5040777 You only learn to color by coloring, anon. Just do it until you don’t suck anymore

I’m not lazy I’m just dumb, and if you understand most of everything you tubers have to say when trying to teach, you must be one of the best artists on ic
>>5040731
Yeah I generally try doing that but sometimes I want to try something different and it’d go badly, my problem probably lies in still not fully understanding the forms of the body and how light affects them, also color theory, temperature etc. there’s just so much it’s frustrating not understanding it all

Honestly looks pretty good if that's your work, you're absolutely on the right track
I'm assuming you're constructing your drawing with 3D forms, so think about how the light affects a certain cylinder, sphere, etc. rather than the whole body -- refinement can come once you've got the basic idea of the lighting down

I started redoing it since that video made me remember that I was approaching rendering wrong. I had my cast shadows and form shadows mixed up, so I went back and removed a lot of random shadows and tried showing a little bit of form, now I re add cast shadows. I try not to get too caught up in rendering like this because I need to remember appealing shapes and lighting is king, I still don’t know how to do intentional shape design. Oh well
