For this quick lesson, I used my simple drawing pencils and a sketchbook to convey a few concepts and techniques regarding edges and shading. Most beginners draw objects with no shading and only hard lines and this creates a cartoony appearance. By softening some of your edges in key locations and using some shading techniques, you can bring your drawings and simple sketches to the next level.

I just finished all the how to draw's video and I have nothing to say but thanks so much for all your effort, the sketching, editing and uploading process that most people don't realize takes to create a great KZfaq channel like yours. The way you teach is college level or even more, really great explained and I appreciated you don't forward your videos. I'd love to see more and if you're out of ideas, let me give you some: - How to draw water - fire - glass (I really wanna learn how to draw glass). How to draw better backgrounds like Castles, cities, skyscrapers or things like architecture style... How to draw in 3D with perspective, I know you already made a perspective video but I'd love to see a further and deeper video into it. How to draw anatomy both In humans and animals, flesh, bones, etc. I hope you make more videos even if they only explain how to draw hands ( which is complicated to me) but of course what you've done so far is worthy to any beginner like me. Thanks again and greetings from Colombia! :)

@gustavoborges9420 Жыл бұрын

Thanks a lot man. Its been years since I started wanting to learn how to draw but I never really started and tried for real. I usually made some really bad draws without any theory knowledge of it. Your videos helped me to understand the rules and, like you said on the beginning, now I can break them and find my type of drawning and art.

great instruction tuts,, my suggestion for me, et.al., is to have a series of specific drawing exercises, e.g., for example, you draw a line, we draw a line, next you have a series of shading examples, we copy you, it really is shading, i truly like the short instruction vids.
