i always love how his little intro thing is so edgy and ominous and then he's just a cheerful kinda shy guy

"So, how are you shapes so good and flow-y?" *"Well, Ya See, I Just Imagine People Burning To Death In A Building First-"*

I feel like Sinix is the college class of KZfaq art tutorials. They are high skill and they are SO helpful for intermediate and even advanced artists.

That one dislike is from ethan for disrespecting his dog🤣

I've been making art seriously for 10 years and this is the first time that I finally understand what looks good. This 12 minute video just unlocked something in my brain and I am so thankful

For future me: "Stop watching this again and again for hundred times!!"

Sinix: "I know most of you aren't into industrial design..." Me: "IGNORE THOSE FOOLS, TEACH ME MORE ABOUT MECHS DAMMIT"

For anyone who wants to watch this subject from different artists, try to watch Marco Bucci's 10 minutes to better painting

I just realized after 3 years how important shapes are and you can use it anywhere to make anything good!, 10.3.2020

It's such a day-brightener to see a new Sinix video in my feed :D

I've never imagined there are people teaching these stuffs in youtube or even in a skool. I've never expected people would have lean these kind of matters as come across or passing by. And who is this Sinix guy?. REALLy appropriate this video and how curious it's that that he broke down the matters into wards...... I barely understood less than a half of the language though, future me should comes and watch again and again. RESPect!

This is a very unique drawing theory video. I've never seen anyone talk about organic vs inorganic shapes. The closest I can think of is "the flow" of the shape theory, but it's not the same. Also, the fact that drawing should be intuitive is very inspiring and eye-opening to me. Thank you for this tutorial, Sinix! Very informative.

Wow, your fire analogy cleared up all of my problems of trying to design my own shapes instead of straight copying from the reference in only one sentence.

You know, this may be odd, but whenever I hear you speak, it sounds you're smiling. How nice :)

i almost shed a tear, i love learning new things

Sinix you are an absolutely amazing teacher. This video has helped me a lot to articulate ideas I was already having for a while but not able to turn into words. The part where you speak of intuition was really eye opening as well, and it feels great to be empowered by the knowledge that my brain HAS VALUE and brings something to the table. In other words, art isn't only about learning and grinding, but to express something which we already all have inside of us.

Dude, this just changed me A LOT, thanks!

"fall 2024" too real

A fun way to create shapes is just imagining people about to die in a fire and running for their lives ^^ Jsjsjajs love you man

It's great, it solved a problem that I couldn't figure out recently! Thank you, teacher。

I’ve been really struggling with this exact thing!! This is so incredibly helpful... I was really struggling with getting a message across in a piece, and I had no idea how much shape design could influence that. Thank you!

"I know a lot of you aren't into industrial design" I for one love industrial design and would love if u went into more videos in that sorta perspective

Finally someone could explain it to me as simple as I could understand it! Even though it's not my native language, everything is so clear! I just want to thank you! 🙏💖

I've actually thought about this so much!! Artists are always talking about how you should have good shapes in your drawings but I've literally seen only one video on how to get good shapes I honestly felt like there's no answer and it was just the tips in that one video but I got so much more from this video and I'm really thankful! It really feels good to have your questions answered, thank you!

Your design style is definitely one of the more unique I've seen. I think subconsciously all artists begin to recognize the stark contrast between mechanical angles, and smoother more "organic" shapes. We just happen to label them more simply as "natural" vs "unnatural" but find it harder to actually define what we really mean. They all have their use, however, sometimes as a beginner artist myself I find it too easy to skew toward one single method in lieu of others. Always good to remember there is no one correct way to accomplish a work of art.

Finally my most anticipated video of 2020 has dropped! Thank you! A great companion video to this would be one where you fix the shapes in someone's design and show these principles in practice.

Your videos have reignited my spark

OMFG you blow my mind with that explanation, is exactly what I needed. Thank you so much.

Your voice leads to comfort. And the tutorial is amazing.

sinix, you truly are a king , ive seen like many many videos on shape appeal and shape design on youtube where they talk about value, composition and everything else other than shape design but you video really talks about this subject in the most helpful way possible, thanks for making such great videos, and hope your doing great.

*Sits down, opens sketchbook. *Opens KZfaq to find music. *Sees new Sinix video notification.... It's going to be a good day.

We've been hearing about this for so long! Praise be!

I really don't understand why you give this information away for free. That said, I'm amazingly grateful for the value you're giving to the community. Selfless and absolutely amazing person. Thanks for what you do, Sinix!

The whole sharp edge and soft edge contrast usage has made SO much click in my head!! Oh my god! I am looking around my room and I am seeing the techniques everywhere! Thank you so much!

that fire alarm analogy might be the funniest and most memorable analogy ive ever seen in an art lesson

I have waited literally years for this video to be made. One of the modern kings of shapes talking about good shapes. I’m so ready!

Man this is probably the best and most useful 10 minutes I've ever seen of anyone explaining anything about art. Thank you very much! I've been thinking about flow for years and I could not find much good info on this, and I feel like I finally struck gold. Even as a professional working for a game company, this is probably the best video I've seen on this subject and was extremely helpful

Yes! This video is so informative, I'll apply all of this on my drawing 😊 Thanks sinix

rest in peace to those people that died just to demonstrate shape design

Fuck'n finally! So glad you've managed to get a video done about shape design. You've been talking about since... forever.

So early and so excited, such an amazing series.

You people are all so lucky. You are viewing the first and only Sinix video of 2020. Treat this as the massive event that it is!

6:40 made me shout oh shit! omg that was intense

What is this? Is this not paid content? unbelievable. Thanks Sinix and patrons.

This is probably the best video about shapes i've ever seen (and trust me, i've seen some..)...You could extend my understanding! This material is priceless!!! Thank You very much!

dude can you teach me everything? these are the most useful tutorials for anything I've ever seen on KZfaq.

All these little shapes are so cute LOL with their big eyes

HE'S BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YEEEEEES! VIDEO ON SHAPES! Pls do it more often dude, THANK YOU ^_^ Miss you on twitch

This is simply mind blowing! Thanks for linking it to industrial design and spaceships, these videos are useful to a lot of different disciplines

I was like "How the FUCK this gold has only 3k views???" then I realized it was just uploaded today. Great video. One of the best of Sinix, I dare to say.

Woahhhhhhhhhhhh it's a great videou, I watch it again and again over time and I still find it informative

inspirations just hit me after days of hating my own art and all what i draw, shape design is oficially my new religion, ahre

Great timing. I've been trying to study this exact topic for the last few weeks and watching this has finally helped it click.

thank you for making this😭😭❤❤

"look at all these people. Left to die in a needlessly complex shape"

oh my god, so happy i found this channel just now, this is exactly what i've been looking for!!

This is better than watching do's and dont's anime video's.

I always get super excited when you post! Thank you for this important lesson sinix :D

Thank you sinix!!!

Sinix upload during my lifetime, feel blessed

A new Sinix video! It truly is a blessed day.

I just want you to know that you're doing a great job on what you do and keep on inspiring people like me. Thank you for actually sharing your knowledge. I love your tutorials. God bless

great video, I've been looking for so long for ressources of this quality explaining this kind of subjects

yhyyyysesssss tears of joy u don't know how many times i have rewatc edd your o ld videos

welcome back sinus!

Might as well leave a comment here, I'm currently dabbling around shape design & appeal to get better at designing objects. This is a good refresher.

This video is great I really like how you explain how to use shapes good I think this is really helpful for character or landscape design

I don't know if you any that Ethan Becker fellow are chummy irl or what, but regardless, I just wanted to hop over and say your videos have guided millions, myself included, since I was like, 15, and are grounded in solid theory and fact, backed by reference. Becker is actually wack in his approach to clickbaiting - implicitly or explicitly - people into looking down on or avoiding your work, and listening to shit-tier advice. Thanks for everything, man.

*_THE RETURN_*

just yesterday i was missing ur vids! seeing this in my sub box felt amazing, thank you and wb :)

Getting a sinix video is harder than finding a shiny legendary pokemon.

finally the promised video of shape appeal is here!!!!!

Superb. Someone just switched on the light. Why wasn't I automatically subscribed to this channel?

4:30 love the analogy lol 🏃🔥

I thought you stopped doing these haha. Super glad it's back though 🙌🏽

Thanks! Good advice on obtuse angles of shapes, inorganic shapes stand out more.

Good allegory with fire escape

Very interesting and wise, a good Channel to gain image knowledge. Thanks.

Right in the first five minutes i became a fan of your work, subscribed to channel and smashed the bell icon.

Incredible artist, and the most helpful videos in my life

Yeeeees Sinix has done it again!

I feel so happy that I’ve found your channel 🥺🤍

You explain things in a very understandable way.

Thanks for another great video, sinix. Hope you're feeling good! Looking forward to the next one

that was helpful, the organic and inorganic talk was elaborating , I can see it everywhere now xD

Very nice and thought provoking video! Thank you! One question came up in my mind: How do you decide on which flow you want? If you take your roboter at 11:05 the flow points the eye into the ground. Should the flow not direct the view to the most important point - the focal point of the thing you're doing? How do you decide on your flow direction?

4:42 This video escalated real quickly.

Awesome Design Video Sinix!! You really broke everything down so simply :)

This was an amazing explanation and exactly the kind of content that I have been looking for.

9:28 ooh a mr game and watch gun

Thank you for this lesson. God bless you and your family.

You are the best!!! Need more - "DESIGN abracadabra" PLEASE!!!)

Your videos are fantastic! Thank you for all the time, effort, and insight you put into these free instructional KZfaq videos-invaluable.👍👍👍🏼👍🏼

A very interesting video, thank you for the tips Sinix, definitly i would apply on my future draws! Hope to see you again soon!

You're saving my life man

Do painting the face next - like, the color zones and stuff... pretty please

I'm glad to discover this video, very helpful! Thank you!

Excellent way to explain this topic!

Sinix finally uploads his yearly upload video :D
