Tip of the day

Drawing "warm ups" are just a meme, and if you honestly think you are drawing better because of practicing boxes or lines beforehand, thats nothing more than the placebo effect.

I honestly find it mindblowing that we have a dunning kruger on this board who is literally too stupid to draw a fucking box, but instead of just learning how to do it, he made it his fucking life mission to fight some weird vendetta against an inanimate 3 dimensional form.

In fact. if anything, it seems like people who are so sensitive about the box exercise, use it as an excuse for being bad and think doing box exercises automatically makes it better than everyone when in fact, the only thing he can draw is boxes.

how pathetic

no one ever told you to draw thousands of boxes you weirdo. Really not sure where your obsession with boxes stems from.

>> No.3236189

>>3236154
The box exercise is something beginners do for a couple days or a week or so to get better at thinking 3 dimensionally and then they move on with their life. You are the only one who somehow got stuck on it and now spends his days obsessively trying to convince people that it is a bad exercise for some reason. No one who is above /beg/ tier is even thinking about this exercise, let alone having such a strong aversion towards it. You might be legitimately autistic.

Seriously, why not let your initial crappy drawings of the day build up towards something bigger? Sometimes I wonder if people on here actually have something they want to draw.

>>3235977
It does help though. It helps me at least.

I rarely do warm ups, but if I haven't drawn for a day or two I like to get back with a 30 minute session of figure drawing. It helps me to losen up with the 1min gestures and get back into thinking 3D with the 5min ones. There's often a huge shift in quality between my first and second study run in a day.

I don't do line or box exercises anymore, but they're automatically included in most of my life studies, like drawing architecture.
If I were to draw boxes as a warmup I'd probably get a subject of choice and use boxes as a perspecive guideline around the object. I do this with heads. Idk but Loomis method never really worked for me, I always draw boxes for heads, it's easier to see the major planes.

I kind of agree with OP a bit.
Theres "warmups" as people call them can't be compared to stretching out like with actual physical exercise.

But id like to experiment a bit.
Im willing to spend 10-15 minutes drawing a bunch of circles and boxes to see if they actually do help out, but in reality im just drawing circles and boxes and wasting time.

No one says you have to draw circles and boxes to warm up you unbelievable moron. The whole point of a warmup is simply to get the first drawings of the day out of the way before doing serious work so you can loosen up a bit. How are you incapable of understanding such a simple and completely self-explanatory concept?

If you draw a bunch of naked bodies and call it a "warmup" then im sorry you're beyond retarded.

>pseudo science
Most people when they draw something for the first time that day, the drawing is stiffer, more awkward and less confident than the drawings that follow. Hence before starting to work on anything important they do a warmup in the form of some sketching, a quick study or some line exercises.

Not sure how you can think drawing something is a bad warmup for drawing. You might be slightly mentally challenged.

God damn youre like a kid that just got told santa isn't real.
Its Essentially the same as throwing salt over ones shoulder after you spill the shaker.
Its just something people do because what others told them and to convince themselves it actually makes them better.
I would demand an example from someone but itd be a waste of time since they would just draw badly on purpose before the "warm up" then go "see it works!!!"
There is no quantifiable proof that that doing warmups actually improves your drawing at all.

I mean, you would kinda know this if you drew yourself. It's not really a subjective opinion or anything. There's a reason why any life drawing class you'll go to will start with quick gestures, then moves to 2-5 minute poses and then the long poses come last. It's plain logic and you're plain dumb.

Oh yeah. have you considered this before? If your sick, that probably means theres something really bad in your body. In fact, it probably has to do with the blood. So lets all start draining our blood when were sick. its plain logic and you're plain dumb.

Just out of curiosity, do you never do sketches or studies at all? Even if you don't call it a warm up, it's still logical to do a sketch or thumbnails or studies before starting what you want to become a finished piece, isn't it? It's pretty much the same idea. You do thumbnails and sketches because you know your first idea usually isn't the best, both technically and conceptually.

>> No.3237456

sketch layers are laughbly completely inaccurate 95% of the time and feeds into the clutch sketch fetish 95% of artist have.

You either draw accurate or have a skrtch fetish
