what is the point of this videos? Is this for brainlets? After watching first Proko video i think it's very clear that answer is: "draw your whole life" guy just draws alll the time his whole life, instead of playing video games and stuff. You can't just do that now on will.

Whats so appealing about Kim's work? I always thought it looked kind of gross and rather erratic looking at the same time.

wrong. You don't put down thing you like and do thing you percieve you need to. KJG never have to do this, he never put down thing he liked in order to draw, he likes to draw in the first place. (He is older, so there was no such distraction back then lucky for him)

He never had to put down thing he liked to practice, he liked the practice itself, watching his videos or lerning more about KJG cant turn your desires and habits in to similar to his. This why those videos are just clickbait for views now, actual answe to why he so good is: he wired his brain in childhood to be practicing 24/7 and enjoing it. Can i do it now? Most likely not.

KJG is a scam artist.
Look at any of his demonstrations, notice the weird cuts in both audio and video.
He probably takes breaks every 2 or 3 minutes to plan out his drawing with construction lines on a piece of paper or he looks at refs while the camera is turned off.

Put down the pencil 2 years ago and I gotta say it’s completely streamlined my approach to drawing

>> No.4262758

Worth paying attention to some of the things he says which highlight his own progress:

1) He used to do a lot of underdrawings with pencil at first before inking over them. This is the norm for the inking/traditional/tattoo world.

2) It's okay to start with a pencil, but don't erase either way. He emphasizes not being blocked by the fear of making a mistake, but going through it.

3) He would have to draw something multiple times until he gets the right representation of it.

Think of all the times you've drawn a hand horribly and how that one extra plane break or the curve made a huge difference. These are true gains made from drawing that accumulate over time that no amount of explaining can replace.

The last thing to point out is that majority of his work isn't colored or rendered. He predominantly has two tones: the paper, and his shadows/contours.

Yes,he has his finger ink smudging nonsense that he throws in there for flair, but his work reads well without it. And yours will too.

It's funny he gets pissed off by people asking him about the brush pen. Loomis, Vilppu and a lot of other traditional artists shaped their pencils to be sharp on one side, broad on the other, to achieve the same kind of calligraphic effect, and nobody bats an eye. But behold, the brush pen! and they lose it.

So what can beg learn from this?

>> No.4262889

>>4262806
Nothing that isn't discussed elsewhere in many different ways, but it never really comes across the way one hopes.

/beg/ all have bad proportions, really bad symbol drawings that are then taken to extreme when trying to render volumes out, and culminating with really narrow bands of values - the lights are too dark, the darks are too light, and it all ends up looking flat without enough turning of forms.

KJG states multiple times that it's primarily about observation. This is more difficult to explain to /beg/'s than it appears, because if it was easy the thread wouldn't always be up to tits in terrible drawings. Even getting them to draw a square grid and map over landmark by landmark would be an improvement, but nobody wants to be a xerox, right?

So to answer your Q: not a whole lot.
