Me who has the most cartoony looking ass artstyle watching this:

The hardest thing about art is knowing your mistake and trying to NOT repeat the same mistake out of habit

my biggest struggle is making the pelvis and torso proportionate. it always end up looking too long and i cant make the hips/pelvis stand out. like i cant make those bony protrusions stand out either, it ends up looking flat or too simplified (for example, if its a woman, its just a curved line after the last rib.

I’ve been struggling w torsos for so long that it actually made me stop drawing only for this to pop up in my shorts and I’m so happy it did bc now I finally have the drive to start drawing again 😭😭😭😭😭 so so thankful for people like you existing who make learning art more approachable and accessible

This video is underrated as hell very helpful

I don't see no mistake dear sir.

I always love seeing the before and after

Contrapasto or adding counter angles really helps make poses more dynamic. Im not good at explaining it, but its a good term to look up. That and Ecroche or the studies of human anatomy without skin, learning how muscles interact and sit really help as well!

I have this problem irl

If you continue like this, i'll draw you in a box!!

The extra guidelines for the depth also makes it easier for eyes and brain to follow along and know what to do afterwards with shading and colouring

I used to end up with flatter work when I try so hard to use traditional guidelines, now I seem to get better results by trusting my intuition for 3D form and blocking in the different body parts/muscles earlier in and making slight adjustments. The neck's position tends to need a lot of adjustment though. I always found the profile view is easiest to understand and nice to draw, everything else is more confusing lol

And people say I'm too addicted to details when I'm literally just drawing in 3d 😂

I really appreciate this video, i was having some trouble drawing the torso, thanks man

I think people need to remember that the ribs are actually tipped and not just straight up

These tips are GREAT because in the beginning, I cant point what's wrong with the "beginning" picture. But by the end, when it transitions from the end picture to the beginning, the end product just looks so much better

I quit drawing a few years ago but I still enjoy watching these btw I got into music production and never had to deal with people destroying my drawings again, so I guess that's good

Well i lost my motivation to draw again

There are 2 large reasons why I like this

Ay thanks for this tip, I was struggling to do a females tourso, thank you🙏

such small details, such a big difference in outcome😮

Why tf is this good 💀😭🤍🤍

the best part about being a good artist is realising you can draw whatever you want to

Its like Spongebob explaining to me how to draw a circle. 😭

part of my drawing/rendering process is just thickening everything as I go over my sketch.

I’m focusing on this really well, you make very good informative videos. don’t ask what I’m focusing on it doesn’t matter

I can't begin to tell you how helpful your videos are. Thank you so much!

David Ross, legendary comic book artist, has a great book where he teaches a mannequin approach. Very good.

The after and before created by the video loop shows the importance of this very clearly

Count our lines really help. Thanks!

It kinda looks like you made the torso more defined than the previous drawing, noted :D

This is so helpful. Thank you! *sigh* Time to go back for more perspective practice.

the unfinished drawing ladies look fine af

I love your films ❤ Keep going! ❤❤❤

This is why you should learn to draw boxes in all possible angle, just do it guys, its essential to become good at art, it will make your life 100x better

"Too flat" Oda: "oh i have no problem with that"

I never run into this issue, it's about preserving body's proportions.

I think gushing over magical girls thought me how to do draw torso perfectly when they introduced Kiwi but thank you this also helped so much

Omg this helps so much, Im definitely at an intermediate level and its honestly kind of hard to find tutorials for stuff like this. This helps a LOT thank you!

As someone who draws in a cartoony way, I skip the anatomy part 😅

It was soo hard for me not to say this when he said "flat".

Drawing the torso properly is one thing. Shading/coloring is whole new level...like i properly draw the torso but will either look so flat or weidly bumpy when i shade the skin.

@excaliblader

8 ай бұрын

Shading is a different skill entirely. If you're able to draw the torso 3-dimensionally, most likely you need to study how to shade 3-dimensional forms first, before you're able to apply that to the torso

You videos help me so much 😭

This is why I should pay attention in anatomy class

Your videos have literally transformed everything I've been doing. I was thinking I was going to have to go to art school (or medical school lol) to figure out what was going wrong with my anatomy (and everything you've shared so far is clearly less than half of the wealth of your knowledge and I can't wait to learn more)

I wish humans were like fluffy like monkies so we artists wouldn't have to deal drawing the precision of skin

Thank you, with this video i learned i need to stop drawing anime with no particular angle, and draw a style I can't draw!

Not even an artist just a man of culture

wtf, i have never seen anyone draw so fast and it looking so good. yes its just a sketch but still.. wow

That makes a lot more sense

i thought shadows were the essence of 3D but now i realize there’s more to it

Let‘s be real, no one learned a single thing from this but just stared at the drawing.

Incredibly helpful! Ill be using this from now on :]

Why do I need this? This just popped up on my feed and I don't draw but will try it when I draw lol

That curve in the back leading to the rib line can make all the difference between shape that passes for a humanoid body and a fridge body.

"Why stop heeeere..." Ops, wrong chanel

That sure is a landmark

My brain always pulls up out the mental image of the worms from MiB when I draw torsos

Smooth af

I prefer to think of the chest as a box tilted back in 3d space, so in the side view the back is mostly aligned to the back of the box, and the chest and collarbones are mostly aligned to the front of a box. If there are breasts, they just out past the edge of the box.

As someone who draws in a wrong way with decent results, I just hope and pray

"Excaliblader! Don't turn me into a cube! EXCALIBLADERRRRRR"

And then you have twisting upper torso with a perspective angle, which make things even more complicated.

Nice!

Me watching art advice fully knowing that i will never use this information: "man thats so interesting"

This is legit respect
