I maybe wrong in this but what I really like about pelvis is that the shape of it doesn't change much. It doesn't inflate or deflate like ribcage, it doesn't bend like the spine, it doesn't twist like arm. So I can use pelvis as the reliable starting point.

I hope you see this: So I am a young artist who didn't understand learning that much Two years ago, more like 5, I watched a channel called zhc. I got inspired to draw so much, and wanted to look good, so I copied a superhero landing, and showed it off in a home made drawing competition at a youth center. I drew the superhero landing Spiderman pose, and the other guy from the competition laughed. So that's where I started off, using his negativity as a motive to get better. Two years pass, and still inspired by zhc, stumbled upon his 3 books video, got a Michael Hampton book, and started to copy his gestures daily, sometimes finished process sketches with no direction. Hard to explain. I did that for two years, and here I am , having learned nothing. I am sad that I've wasted two years. The good thing is that I've stumbled upon your list of skills pdf, and FINALLY IMPROVING! Right now, working on the angles, because I drew so many people back then, have a pretty good sense of proportion, because of Michael hampton, I know where to look for The muscles. Anyway, for gesture, all I had to do was think through angles. I wish I could show you my gesture drawing I did, seeing through the angles and the landmarks. I have wasted so much time, and thanks to you I found the holes of my skills so far. I'm bad at explaining things, but if you read anything from this, thank you You really helped me If only I could show you my gesture drawing :)

The way you break things down has been so helpful and the pelvis pants idea has made a big difference for me... as someone who can get bogged down in details the way you can cut to the essence of things is fantastic!!! Love your work🤗

Appreciate your note of "it's the most efficient thing to know about gesture and figure drawing". We always feel like we might miss a sensitive information Always thankful to your vids in figure drawing , no such a teacher would explain them this way ♥️ Best of luck

Very useful, thank you!

As someone trying to study anatomy, here is my PERSONAL perspective. Its about 70/30 for me. Learning deep anatomy has been super useful in every area of my fogure deawing and drawing in general. It teaches your eyes to be sensitive to every detail which allows me to choose what to draw more precicely. However most of what you’ll get out of anatomy you do get from the first 30-odd percent I feel

i used to confuse the obliques with the asis points. great video

Best channel ever Please don’t stop making these lessons

The pelvis area was difficult until this video. I appreciate that you are sharing helpful information.

awesome as always!

You are the Colin Farrell of art. Thank you very much for all your content, it is really gold!!! 🙌🙌

You should get Nobel prizes in art and engineering for the Pelvis Pants™, plus at least one in literature for coining that name. Where do I nominate you? The video was very helpful btw, thanks.

Its only been a few minutes since watching these videos and I can already see a huge difference in my work . I shall keep studying and working smart. The way you explain things is life changing. THANK YOU!

I love the idea of the pelvis pants, thank you so much! I have never liked the pelvis box idea, but this one is gold! So helpful 💖

Those pants are so much more intuitive. I always struggled when drawing the pelvis as a box like I see it in so many other anatomy tutorials

Your videos have helped me so much, thank you!

As always, you explain things in simple terms with great graphics. Thanks Kenzo and I'm looking forward to the fresh eyes challenge to help me move forward.

Fantastic advice on the pelvis! I work as an art teacher and this will for sure make teaching my classes a lot more effective.

Beautiful video

I've been struggling so much with making my figures look dynamic, countless videos watched - this one coupled with the ribcage video explains it so well, I'm drawing the best figures I ever have instantly! Thanks so much!

This is the kind of content that keeps us coming back. Thanks!

Excellent synopsis. Practical and useful information for pelvis orientation while drawing. TY

Pure Gold

Thank you for this my man!

Amazing tutorial

Thank you! 5 stars IMHO

Ah the pelvis my worst enemy. I can never seem to get it right Well that and hands

The Anatomy Police is sure to get you Kenzo!! 😀 Loved this video. You are the best teacher. I am going to do the Fresh Eyes challenge once again!

Thank you so much! I've been studying pelvis anatomy recently and this is a life saver.

Good stuff, thanks!

My prayers have been answered! Yay! Also happy new year

You’re a life saver! Thank you so much for these videos!!!

These videos of anatomy made simple are so good.

Love the tutorial... So much info shared so clearly and non too ambiguous.. Thanks most of the videos are so confusing they actually don't come down two the student level..

On day 8 of the 10 day challenge you have on your membership site, Kenzo. Great buildup for learning and practice. Thanks very much.

Clear and helpful lecture. Encouraging!

Simple and informative, Thank You

Nice video 👍

fundamental lesson! Very useful

Really excellent explanation and explication. You make beautiful clarifications of difficult material.

You are amazing! Thank you so much❤

This is one of your best presentations, thank you!

Magnificent, Kenzo. Got a lot out of that.

Awesome, thanks :D

Muchas gracias por este video, cambió por completo mi forma de ver la anatomía, principalmente de la pelvis que es lo que más me cuesta ubicar al hacer un dibujo. 💗

Thanks a lot for your video! Could you make a lesson about the middle section between the pelvis and the ribs? This is very difficult, especially when the body is moving strongly)

finally!!! the pelvis!!!

I’ve seen in a lot of concept art how they exaggerate the legs at the knees to be going in the other direction, but I didn’t know it was actually to model like in 8:08 that’s actually really cool to see!

I like the pelvis pen and the ribcage idea because I have done plenty of those, but never really commited to it. I'm gonna commit

Love these videos! Found your ribcage explanation video very eye-opening. do you have tips/plans for breaking down the relationship between the ribcage and pelvis? I find that connecting them is a struggle

"I have an youtube channel with a video about the pelvis" ... that is called only fans

This dude almost looks like the almighty Monk of drawing

Helpful! Helpful! Helpful!🙃🙃🙃

Thank you for simplifying! This is a good addition to Proko's tutorials about the Robo Bean :). Now I combine the Pelvis Box (Robo Bean) with your Pelvis Pants when I construct figures. I do wonder, on what height do you position the navel with respect to the ASIS points?

debating whether or not to use a box or the pelvis pants.

love this. but also i didnt know uncle roger could draw!

Hi, Kenzo. I really enjoy the quality of library photos, but seems that not all of it available on LLD site. Do you have any plans to make all photos available for drawing purposes for some one payment subscription, smith like Croquis Cafe does? I will be the first one:) and thanks for all the tips and knowledge that you r sharing with us❤

Does anyone know exactly where I should start as a beginner? I want to eventually get to drawing fanart, but I'm prepared to do a lot of studying and practising realism, perspective, gesture drawing etc. in order to get there. I'm just overwhelmed, it seems like there's so much to learn and I have no idea where I should focus at the beginning

Yeah, the math checks out. 90% easier. :)

8:25 oh so that term "box" in the phrase that says "i'm gonna destroy that box" possibly originated from artists doing figure drawings?? hmm

Sorry, I missed last night, the 23rd (my birthday!)

Pelvis Presley... Sorry, it was stronger then me, thanks for effort and tips, of course :)

sir do you have similar video on hands!

I honestly draw a pear of pants

Мужики, слушайте! Василий Алибабаевич дело говорит😁

Calling it Pants make it so much more simple finding those points on some figures had me lost

Ok but what if I want to draw a skeleton?

learning this for free feels illegal. that big claim at the start turned out to be true

daddy🥴

This is false advertising. I tried it and it only made drawing easier by 8 - 8.5 X easier
