Whats so special about will weston?

[Anonymous No.4671046]

I'm watching the will weston course right now. I see nothing knew here or interesting. Everything he says would be covered by any other figure drawing book or course (weston/proko/hampton). Why did /ic/ hype him as the next art instructional god?

Not op but I bought his live course and it’s fucking worthless.

the only thing that is slightly interesting or new is the head breakdown method and maybe his proportion style.

I dont know if the online course is different from what he posts on instagram. They don't look the same at all

Because most of /ic/ is third world beggars, underage, and other people that don't draw. They act very strange like you should be thankful for a course because it costs money, even if the course is absolute dog shit (like most of the hyped courses or books they beg for). They also do weird echoing of "I've heard this book is good" because of the cover even though the books are shit, they're just begging for someone to upload it.

I guess it depends what you want out of the course.I came in already knowing anatomy, and wanted to see his approach to breaking up the figure. Even if it's similar to other methods, there are some things I found slightly off about how he and his students were dividing things, but watching helped cleared it up.

why won't they settle for the courses readily available though?

I think it's just people hoarding tutorials, not something related to poverty or whatever

Take a nature photo to your favorite image editor.
Add a new layer below it and fill it with 100% saturated color of your choice.
Switch the photo's blending mode to Saturation.
Post results.

weston is cringy as fuck, and his course it's like an oversimplified vilppu/hampton mashup, that's all.

The only courses from drawing america I'm interested in are those by jennifer gennari desu

What are you talking about, even those videos that got leaked provide many insights from Weston. He manage to make it very dense and full of information, shortcuts and very useful tips in only a couple of hours. I can only imagine what would be if he made a full course without having to rush things down. I saw him as a very no bullshit teacher, he showed you exactly what you needed to do instead of beating around the bush showing useless stuff. Everything he showed and spoke in that lecture is gold and straight to the point. Other instructors have shown similar stuff? Yes, but full of mystical, enigmatic and obscure stuff, Weston went straight to the point and dismistified it giving you exactly what you needed. OP is just too dumb to understand how much information is contained in those videos.

have you ever read hogarth? almost all of weston's diagrams are directly out of hogarth, with the exception of his head system and proportion system

Then go read/watch those too. Why does ic have this monotheistic art-god worship where you can only use one method for construction, gesture, etc. Diversify your sources and think for yourself and make your own method, god damn.

Akthusshally you should be using the resources as a general guide as you draw and develop your own method which can only result from careful observation and actual practice.
