Learning to draw

[Anonymous No.4809335]

Is anatomy really important? Proko studied for years and can't draw from imagination at all, but epic nips can shit out anime girls easily. How do they do it?

Proko actually can draw human figures from imagination, you even see him do it several times in the anatomy course. Anime girls are highly simplified shit

Lot of professional manga artists use references/3d models for drawing figures. And have assistants to take care of the other stuff like objects and backgrounds.
Stop thinking all asians are Kim Jung Gi.

You don't need anatomy to draw anime girls. In fact, it works against you in most cases.

Figure drawings and copying works of others, they already shown what matters and what to focus on. Knowing the big shape is enough if u wanna become a coomer,

>from imagination
No. The way courses work is the teacher meticulously practices every drawing or painting he will be making prior to even starting, this is standard practice. Many also have references off to the side and you can see them glancing over as they work.
Every single time Stan’s put on the spot or goes off script, he fucks up. I’m not saying anything about his artistic ability, it he couldn’t improvise his way out of a paper bag, and it doesn’t stop at art, any time someone disagrees with him or says something that runs contrary to what he’s been selling to his audience, he freezes up and starts stuttering.

It's nice to know the basics such as where the major muscle groups connect and landmarks, but going autistically into anatomy is very useless for anything that's not an extremely realistic muscular naked man.

This is the only thing truly worth drawing.

If your into the anime side of it Mikeymega tutorials on youtube have a good balance of proportion/basic anatomy versus the style.
You don't need to memorise the name of every muscle group

Proko was trained in the classic atelier ways where drawing from life, and sight drawing are placed above all else. Anatomy is extremely important, but being able to visualize a simplified 3 dimensional mannequin, and pose it is even more important, and is something I don't think Proko can do.

Construction based drawing, perspective, and drawing from forms are the foundation of drawing from imagination, and it's the main reason its what's emphasized at concept art schools, and art schools in Asia.

Mikeymega has been a godsend when it comes to drawing figures from the imagination. Him and Krenz.

What part of him not actually drawing from imagination do you not get, retard?
Again, this is standard practice. Bob Ross didn’t shit out those paintings from imagination, he painted them in preparation to filming, then painted the same painting again for the camera.
The worst thing you can do is go hurr durr I’ll wing it on camera and then waste time, delay the video and get flustered when it doesn’t come out right when it’s time for production.
Stan is shit at drawing from imagination.

Those drawings weren't from imagination, he clearly looked at a hand reference, and broke it down into forms afterwards. Proko can't into imagination.

Jesus christ proko literally teaches you how to pose a simplified 3d mannequin, and he said the goal of his anatomy course is to get you to a level where you can draw figures from imagination. Do people actually get more stupid the second they visit this site? I can't fathom the stupidity i come across every time I look on 4chan. I hereby vow that this is my last ever post on this site, I think if I stay here for even 5 minutes longer my mind will deteriorate beyond repair. Goodbye assholes

if you wish to draw complex humans poses from imagination then u need to understand them yes

The absolute state of /ic/ is baffling to me. I listen to the Draftsman podcast constantly with Proko and Marshall. Ive listened to the interviews he has with Miss Jisu and Kim Jung Gi. Proko even shows some master copies he has done of other great works to sell as a younger adult as commissions. The man is a fiend of anatomy knowledge and a fantastic teacher.

He even admitted early in the video that he trained and practiced observation based art for nearly a decade, and is still relatively new when it comes to drawing from imagination.

Is there supposed to be something wrong with this image? Oh and by the way you can see in your screenshot that he doesnt just copy the reference but constructs it using forms, which is what enables you to eventually draw heads from imagination

Being able to breakdown references into forms can only help you so much if you continue using references. He never stopped using references and it shows in his only Livestreamed drawings from imagination.

I was being facetious. Your average student at a concept art or design school has a better intuitive understanding of these things than Proko.
