Thank you thank you thank you I'm sure making art video doesn't get the return investment or recognition it deserves but damn your body of work you've uploaded truly is a gold mine for someone like me who's bought so many books and classes spent so many hours drawing and finding nothing online but "how to videos" online your videos are so solid and helpful packed with so much information I have to rewind sometimes so I don't miss certain words I see all the video stretch back for so long and each is carrying further from the lesson before...great work!

He has 100k subscribers and gets 50k views on some vids. He makes a decent amount of profit

I have been coming back to this one and the older ones again, and it is truly lovely. It would be epic to see some short café drawing sessions, but also the pipeline or workflow process from pen and paper over to digital Tim. Looking forward to more amazing ideas and creations.

Fantastic drawing Tim. I’ve been sketching away on my sketchbook at the start of this year, just to practice my three dimensional shapes, stylised faces and original illustrations.

Another Art Ritual! Yessssss

Love the drawing man super fun stylised stuff, would love to try😅❤

Great video as always :) Regarding part when You speak about what sketch may bring to next steps of drawing, I always thought that its important to keep energy of lines, poses and movement. Not losing it, when we refine a drawing is a great skill. Many times I compared tight drawing with sketch and I was like 'meh, its not as cool, lets try again'

Though I’m poor at English, I really love your video ❤❤❤❤

Hi Codex..thanks for your help,I follow because of your overall art skills. Myself I'm trying to aspire towards Caricatures so studying portraits and facial expressions is what I need to do as well as what you teach. Could you dabble a little on Old wooden carts/wagons and machines. Do a horse pulling a car setup as a wagon,a guy riding a bicycle that he has to paddle to fly,a caveman fishing with a spear🥸

I would like to see this added to Photoshop indeed. But I would also like to see some basic rendering and not just color and texture. Just to see your rendering process.

I like your Art Ritual videos. They are fun to watch, and most of the time I find myself drawing after a few minutes. Wouldn`t this one be an opportunity to try watercolor as it already is on the right paper?

Drawing? Oh, not again, Tim! I thought we were supposed to summon demons and shiet. Alright, tea ready, pen in hand, ready to summon-I mean, drawing along!

Man, those tombow mono pencils look really sexy!

Could someone please explain why he’s using such a soft pencil to draw everything from start to finish? Why not an HB or harder since it’ll give crisper lines?

The lines end up being too light for the camera to pick up properly. Especially in the beginning when I would normally press very lightly. And then I would get 50% of the comments telling me to use a darker pencil so they could see it in the beginning. Ask me how I know :)

I used to use a B .5mm mechanical pencil lead for everything. But I had to start learning to use the darker pencils for KZread. And now I'm kind of used to it! So I use these 3b and darker wooden pencils for everything right now.

Ah, thanks. I’ve been trying to figure out which hardness to use for sketching and not getting anywhere.

As a side note, those Tombow pencils actually have a lot of range with pressure. I think they are of a higher graphite content than other pencils. I often find that I can use just B,4B, and 6B to make a full grayscale drawing.

@@ranaraeuchle6485 I’ve settled on Staedtler 2mm and FC 9000, not really looking to change. My main problem is figuring out the grades themselves, I’m struggling to figure out what grades to use when. I keep hearing to use 2H but I’m not sure if that’s what I should use or not. I’m also not sure if it feeling “crunchy” is normal or not.
