Is it possible to internalize anatomy and just learn intuitively by tracing? This way you produce work AND study at the same time, instead of grinding boxes endlessly.

>> No.3159618

>>3159614
By the time you've internalized anatomy you have already gone beyond passed the need for use of references, so no.

No.

>grinding boxes endlessly

Ask me how I know you don't actually know what the Draw a Box or Dynamic Sketching courses ask you to do.

He literally just lifted exercises and lessons from others, put them in his own order, and claimed it as his own. Fuck off

They are actually really good but some people like the old just dont want to follow that route. I personnally did like 5 years of hogarth (yes im insane) before I hit pro level

Dynamic Sketching is absolutely the superior course, but Draw a Box is free without piracy.

Of course it is, if he charged for it people would absolutely shit on him for what it is - lifted lessons. I heard he's made changes to some of the lessons now, but this guy is classic "fake it till you make it".

No, you don't learn anything from that.

>This way you produce work AND study at the same time
You'll produce shit work everyone will laugh at. I'm not sure you Dunning Krugers realize this, but everyone can tell when a beginner traces a photo, because it looks like ass.

tracing is just another form of study, highly recommended for beginners.
It is NOT for producing finished works you fucking hack.

It is.

Tracing is a great way to memorize anatomy and mechanical stuff.

Not an argument.
I just proved that tracing is useful for learning. I don't see what is there to argue about.

I have a program where you can model and pose some figures in 3d, and a shit ton of pictures of women from tumblr to instagram and is kind of helpful if you don't want to hit your head in the desk when you wanna try to draw more challengly poses. Mostly the stuff i draw from my head are pretty much from a pretty small library of pre-determined poses i find more easy to draw. but the thing is if you want to heavenly use references you pretty much must know about the fundamentals and anatomy to make it more appealing anyway. I mean, if you simply take a photo, and trace it, it will look terrible no matter what. But if you take what have you learned and draw the same pose in a more appealing way it will look much better than just straight tracing...

This is what happens when you use tracing as a crutch instead of actually learning to draw.

There's literally nothing wrong with any art if it was meant to be the way the artist wanted.
