THANK YOUUUUUU

Can you do a tutorial on how to draw dreads and dark skin shades with makers and dignity as well

Honestly nothing wrong with that… the style here seems slightly more anime like… which is a common style that I’ve seen lots of artists start with, or still use to this day I think the point of the book here is to learn how to expand your style and help you with certain angles and poses you’re stuck on… eventually the people using this book will move on and learn to accept their own style… after all, tracing is used to help improve :D (Not starting a flame war tho, just giving my two cents- I respect your opinion tho)

What's wrong with that people's art style was the same before 2000. The people's art style is for them to choose not you or anyone else. Do you even have your art style I think having one style of art is boring but to each its own.

@@dreamidiaries Uhmm… not sure if that’s a response to me, but I’m a little confused by the uh- punctuation… took me a few rereads tbh, but that’s okay Anyways, yes, I have several art styles myself and I think it’s quite fun to switch it up sometimes… but consistency is nice sometimes too :)

@@crowprisun Yeah, that's if you can im not able to be consistent maybe it's because I like too many styles. I'm not good at writing a decision or stuff. I don't put punctuation because I would look dumb when I don't know what it's used for or how to use it that's not my fault though just like with art I would like to have multiple art styles since it's less frustrating to me who doesn't think I will ever have my own. It's hard to have your own when you see so many of them and I was not replying to you but the person above

it's to help, once you know the basics you can develop your own style

It is for practicing if it's similar to her style. If you want variation you have to practice and work hard like the rest of us

That's good and all but that would raise the price of the book and as a beginner drawing, different body types are not a priority. We can't even draw hair and body types so why would we need all that I think the book is good for children and teenagers. And beginners who can't draw anything most tutorials cost 50-200 dollars that most people don't have. I need skin tone tutorials but they cost money where would I find one on KZfaq yes. But it's so short and not broken down right. This is in her style she is showing it to people who want to draw like her. You see plenty of other artists do the same this is not for people who aren't beginners

@@dreamidiaries good point. I also find it helpful as a pro just to use for warming up (like when you want to workout well, you warm up - it's the same for artists) and for practice because yes we still practice. You will never stop practicing

@@stronggirlsyndrome Yeah true im no pro but I think it's easier to want more stuff because you're at a different level. Then where you first started I can't draw hair and haven't been good at it for three and a half years but I try

Yeah, you’re right It’s always either 🪣 or 🎈

Me too 💀😂

Omg……… same

No, you’re not the only one ^^’

Nope I did too

Same

Agreed

Actually the art style isn’t basic anime style because, she actually created the book. So the art style she drew is the art style of the book.(you can see that they match). Also, if you draw cartoon like, you can still add things to the models that are provided, and this is just for art block treatment, not really tutorial like.

@@reaper-eyellistrates9252 a lot of Amazon art books have this style

@@reaper-eyellistrates9252 but it doesnt treat art block at all. the only way to treat art block is to either be inspired by smthn, challenge urself, or just push thru it. this book isn't resourceful at all for what its claiming it is.

@@kori368 yea and they dont help either 😬

Great advices! Some people told me a few times that my female characters looked like me lol and it wasn't intentional. And I follow a variety of artists whose characters look like them (also, I don't know if it's unintentional, but I find it very interesting). Sorry for grammar, I'm Brazilian.

Yes bc there's free procreate brushes and TWO 2-hour tutorials Plus everything in the book is hand drawn

+no actual anatomy and doesn’t exactly teach how to draw bodies, just how to trace them

​@@jay8524 not even body types besides the simple wattpad y/n busty but has a toothpick waist?

And kinda the style of anime

this comment Is ignorant cause you are practicing, your practicing by copying the style of the book. You'd be surprised how you can learn from another artist style by mimicking or tracing their artwork, I've done the same when I was little.

@@vultureiraq1168 ignorant? I’m sorry but I’m stating my opinion. I said your not learning anything because it’s not teaching you anatomy, which is more important than learning some artists style. It might work for you when you were little but if your looking to become a serious artist, that’s not going to cut it.

@@kori368 the books still a great guide to learning anatomy, ever seen pose references? You use this book as more than copying a artist style and use it as a guide. I don't know why that's so hard to understand.

@@kori368 and if this book was useless learning anatomy, tutorials of artist demonstrating you things would be useless as well. There's a reason you use reference when your practicing drawing, aka this book. There's guide and structure to drawing a person's face and you will get the hang of how to draw a face by drawing on top of it like the artist demonstrated.. That's why its great for anatomy if that explains it. So nope the books not 'useless' even for a serious artist.

wish you the best!

@@jaiden7474 thank you,you too wish you the best❤️

can you get the book in stores?

@@ryrylikesfrenchies sorry I have no clue :(

Thank you!🤗

Exactly my point! +you can even add on to it and make it realism if you want to and actually know a thing oe two about it!

I feel like if this book enters my hands it's gonna be super fun I'm not exactly an artist-artist, more like artist-still down there level.. but if I ever get that book on my hands, God knows I'll draw female characters of the male faces and male characters on the female faces😂 Btw, she did say it's more useful for artblock and I can see how it is

@@nickeni3050 yea, i see what you mean with it being just fun. but its a bit pricey for just fun isnt it? but thats just my opinion, that money is better spent on a learning resource than "techniques" that'll hold your skills behind

@@evergreen9927 the book is useful no doubt but there's no rule that it had to be her book that I get. If I really wanna get a book like that to have fun with drawing faces when I have artblock then I can just make one, shouldn't cost me more than 9$ at most Her book isn't really a necessity, she never said it's the best or perfect either, she's just selling a fun product she made. Those who find it fun and can afford it can buy but for those who either find it useless to them or just can't afford it or find it too pricey can continue their lives I guess. Like me, I do find it quite pricey and will move along but still can't deny that it's a fun book to have around, tho not necessarily

I feel like people just want shortcuts to good art and that’s why they turn to these books. They are easy to do and you get the result as shown. But what happens when you want to grow and improve beyond that?

Like, if the head is up, the forehead is shorten a little (I know this cuz I also draw a lot).

I think it’s her because of similar the eyes are

@@iisxmplyalexis5845 We know it’s her but it might not be clear, which is kind of manipulative marketing.

True

Yeah and when you have literally anything BUT procreate

If you have a printer just print images like these instead of buying a book of them. Also, if you draw digitally then just trace over images that way.

Exactly... Like a bunch of head angles isn't gonna do anything for someone who has artblock. If I wanted that I would just draw it?

Exactly! Artblock is feeling stuck and unable to draw (it can be different for others but I think that's the main idea) this book wouldn't get you out of art block or even get that much better at drawing humans since it doesn't actually teach the basics! It just hands you a bunch of premade bases with no info on why they are like that (that are all in the same "anime" style too)

I only said it would help with Artblock because I have actually used it and it helped me when I was struggling opening up my sketchbook and started drawing it helps get the ball rolling

@@rawsueshii it's your own book. u made everything in it. it's in your style. it's useful for u simply bc it is yours. but it shouldnt be advertised for art block because all it is are bases. from whT i could tell, theres no interesting poses, no prompts, no recommended colour swatches, no dtiys... all ideas that might help with other ppls art block. its great that is works for u, but it shouldnt be catered toward ppl having art block unless they want to be wildly disappointed.

@@rawsueshii i dont want to be accusatory, but personally this seems like a money making scheme for artists who are struggling and are gonna end up paying for smthn that wont help them.

@@um8624 Lol yea I meant as in it’s a built in sketchbook. A lot of how to draw books don’t come with pages to test out on. You have to buy a separate sketchbook. Hence me saying it’s free. It’s a figure of speech. TLDR the deal is good

??? Female anatomy is different than male anatomy it’s not some sexist thing saying that two different groups of people don’t look the same.

@@meladypython1007 for me is easier like that, i'm sorry

@@youloveariel it’s ok! It was just a misunderstanding

I can buy it but it costs like 30$ so no thanks

I think you should have asked her before advertising other products on her page, I'm just saying this because she may think this will drive her costumers away

its supposed to “warm you up”. think of this like another drawing exercise. aaaannnd your style, and any other styles out there, is just a culmination of what you have learned, referenced, copied, and drawn in the past being put to good use. there’s no such thing as “someone else’s style”, unless you taught yourself how to draw, not that basic “face grids” and all that technical know how. im talking about you basically taught yourself how to hold a pencil, write on a paper, make toddler circles without the help of others until you got to where you are right now

she made it and its on amazon

For watercolour cold pressed paper 200-300 gsm is nice, for pen Sakura pigments work well

You can just use printer paper and a .7 mechanical pencil. I usually use .5 though because the led is so breakable, it forced me to draw lightly and increased my dexterity. That should be enough but if loose paper isn’t your style, weighted sketchbooks are best. I hated paper that smudged too much because it ruined my art days later

I use multiple mediums. Though I usually don't fuss about the specific brands too much when it's anything but the paper. Graphite/charcoal: I use Strathmore paper (various sizes) the 300 series I believe. Specifically the 'drawing' paper label. I will also use toned paper in grey from time to time though less often since it's more expensive I usually use a full range of pencils H, F, to B and a graphite stick for larger areas. For charcoal I use vine and compressed with 3 B range general's charcoal pencils. The other brands don't matter to me, as I haven't noticed any major difference and i happened to just get the charcoal pencils in a set. Watercolor: A range of watercolor papers all specifically labeled watercolor and at least 300lb weight for finished pieces; I prefer blocks over sheets but only current have the fluid brand in a premade block. I use wood pulp/blends most often, though for my nicer pieces I use cotton. I sketch with up to an hb range on a separate sheet and transfer using a transfer sheet. If there's anything I need to add I use a H range pencil. Inks: I use them in sketchbooks most often for dry media, though I've used blick Bristol paper once or twice and that worked nice. I usually use microns, though I also have a cheap set from Five below I use for fine lines. I also have an ink brush from Pentel, though I couldn't find the specific one I used as it was a pigment ink thats much darker than the ones I've seen available now. It's in the broad size so I use it to fill in large spaces. I don't often, but I've used the pentel brush pen also for inking outlines in a more comic like/line weighted style. General sketching on the go I use mechanical pencils so I don't have to worry about sharpening. Theres three where I have a different lead hardness (I believe is a 6b) and colors (red and blue) though I rely mainly on the standard .05, and .07 range sizes and hb lead since it's easier to get more of.

😫

That's what you think, if people want this book and want to practice with it then that's what they want and That's their decision. You don't go saying it's garbage when you haven't bought it yet or probably heard what the girl in the video said.

Yeah you can also create more diverse characters this way. As an artist an a writer, I usually look at the people on my bus. I actually have a full story based on one of them lol.

@@WinkyPooks i mean if people just wanna use the books, hell yeah go for it. But I've used these books before, I still have some of these types of books in my house, they are NOT good if you want to learn how to draw in a more in-depth sense. If you wanna use them, that's absolutely fine, no problem there. But if someone wants to learn how to draw facial expressions, hands, environments, and all of it in more than just a few angles or without becoming stuck doing a style they're not comfortable with, then drawing from observation is the best way to learn. There's a reason why art schools teach you this, it really is the best way to learn art. You don't need to go to school for it, obviously, but being able to just power through and draw what you don't particularly like to draw or draw what you're weakest at drawing gets you to improve exponentially. Hell I hated drawing clothes, now I fucking love doing fabric and texture work from the amount of compositions I did involving metal, wood, glass, cloth. It's my strong suit now, which is nice! Still can't draw feet, but I'm getting there lol Plus, it's cheaper to just draw what you see. Just paper and pencil is what's needed, or the tablet you use if you prefer digital. I personally had to go to school to learn art because I didn't have the discipline to learn on my own, but not everyone needs to. You just need to practice and draw what's being seen around you, and it will help.

​@@shirinardekani4387 yeah, it's how I learned to draw eyelashes and hands better

I’m so excited for you😭😭

Same lol

Same lmao

Lol

Pretty sure this is towards artist who are having trouble drawing who aren’t beginners. Would help artist learn a new style and as a want to be artist. Personally this is the common style some beginner wants to start in and will help them with a start. They can learn new techniques if they don’t like how it’s working out with the book but basic anime body characters are something people who are new do want to commonly try and if they get into it they develop a interest in art and learn more new things

it doesnt force you to have this art style, copying the art style is your choice, you can use the lessons for your own style and the stamps as references, just because a art book has a certain style doesnt mean its forcing you to use theirs

@@krystantharpe8455 it might not EXACTLY force you to, but it definitely influences it upon you so its kinda the same problem especially for beginners

@@Shiki_. id say this is actually more for beginners because most advanced artists probably dont need already-drawn heads and stuff because how else can you practice so nah

Well as a beginner artist you can't learn everything at the same time, and no, you can give or take a few line to make this a whole different style. But at the same time you can use it if you struggle to keep you faces consistent

Me too

Yeah that's a trick to make you spend more. It's shady

True though I was thinking of that to

Drawing Tabs not pads... It's alright i guess

@@dominicus5880 well forgive me since I don't use those things. Thanks for the correction

@@elavie8220 Dude you don't need so say sorry🤣 I said it's alright omg haahhaa

You shouldn’t let that stop you. Getting better at drawing doesn’t just happen when you draw in a specific medium. You can stop drawing right now and still get better because your observation skills will continue to get better. That being said. Going into a new medium for something as basic as lines increases your pen dexterity regardless. So you’ll come back to digital learning more. And this book seems to help with concepts like poses, techniques and ideas more than it being about how to draw. Anyways, goodluck

Hey you don’t have to have procreate to get this book 🤗

Well, like she said. Sometimes she’s feeling rusty, or as many people say “lost their spark” sometimes you need some practice. So, this book can really be for anybody. It doesn’t matter how good you are at art, sometimes you need practice, want to find new styles, or even wanna try something new etc! So in conclusion.. everybody can use this book :)

@@mochis.heartstopped im not trying to sound that way i only was responding to the people who were complaining that it lacked anatomy lol if they want anatomy the they should go to an anatomy class.

@@kat_eternity2.0 gotcha!!

Actually it can help seasoned artists a lot too because they are usually in a hurry, and those who think "similar faces","unrealistic anatomy" and "bad proportion" are not probably "seasoned artists", because they'd know that as long as the joint are in place, you can make even the most stylized bases realistic in short time in comparison to drawing from scratch and you can litterally add any feature you want

You objectively could not use it with any style.

@@fancycrafts7774 Can't is for quitters. No jk but fr. I feel like you could. Once again, maybe not for the head shape if you go by a different kind of head style, but with the face I can see doing facial features to be possible.

@@lukasaa6117 If you want realism, this book isn't useful. Also, how is useful just drawing always the same proportions, same body, same face proportions, there's a lot of books to learn how to draw and are way better

@@kukukuku1606 Hmmm you may have a point. Still it isn't completely useless. If I did have this book, I think I would mainly use it for kind of a guide to understand anatomy a bit more? Not like 100% realistic, but it's enough for me to be able to get a simple grasp of it. Idk if that makes sense. I feel like even if it's not 100% realistic, you could get some kind of guide going on.

@@fancycrafts7774 yes you can. For some styles it would take more adding on and cutting off, for some less
