Soo helpful!! Thank you very much!!❤

great video, thank you!

Love this still life, the variety of textures reallyenhance it. I've had your collection of tutorials a while and appreciate being to go back and review an area as needed. Also, started rewatching the lot of them, always pick up something I've forgotten. Thanks for all your work.

Great video thanks very much

Доброе утро! Ваша техника впечатляет. Мне очень нравится фотореализм в графике. Подумываю о покупке ваших обучающих курсов. И хоть абсолютно не владею английским языком, думаю, что визуально смогу понять, что к чему.

Que gusto verte otra vez por el canal de KZfaq 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

As usual, very nice drawing. Love the way the highlights pop off the paper. When people come in to our gallery asking about drawing lessons, I always refer them to your website and KZfaq channel. Hope you're doing well.

Love these videos.

Awesome!

Just stumbled on this video!! Hallelujah!! I have had a p-divider for a few years and gave up trying to find a good use for it. (I'm kinda slow I guess) I have used the grid system for lets say 65 years. It has served me well. However I have gotten tired of erasing lines. (imagine that) Seeing the combination of the modified grid ( which I have tried with unsatisfactory results for me) and the proportional divider in combination, the light has come on!!🤪 THANK YOU!!!!

Thank you, JD. This is very helpful.

Beautiful work, I'm an artist myself looking to better my skills to commercially viable levels

Archers? Is that the same as Arches paper?

How can I get better ate my drawings please help me

Στα ελληνικα παρακαλω

Thank you

Great job of really explaining the reality of handling paper!

Whoa I was doing it all wrong! Thank you my friend ❤️

They make gloves for drawing too to keep the oils off, you dont have to tape a piece of paper to your hand lol. When you buy a digital graphics pad they often come with one thats very similar to protect the screen from your oils and fingerprints but they have them specifically for traditional drawing as well.

Your drawings are out of this world! I love your hyper realistic drawings! 😁😁😁

This was very helpful now just a matter of trying it out 😅

I am currently working through an online drawing course and the most difficult thing I have encountered so far is getting the angles and proportions right. Last week I got a proportional divider and it's brilliant! I do not want to become a slave to it, though, because I want to train my eye to see the angles and proportions, but initially it is really helping, and it will be a useful tool for checking the end results, too. If I were to draw an accurate portrait, I would certainly use it. I love your portrait of the gentleman at the end of the video - such a beautiful drawing of a really interesting and characterful face.

Your videos are really helpful, thanks

Great video Buddy. You solved my biggest concern.

I want your demo using the proportional divider tool

I want to watch the video where you drew the lines and used proportional divider tool

there are exeptions....like on the moon...rocks with 2 shadows but one light source ..:)

Good. I add to this, using a 3-point proportional divider. One I made myself.

This is without a doubt the best tutorial on using a modified grid method, but more importantly the proportional divider. Thank you❤❤❤

How much does it cost for tutorial registration?

Oh my word! What can I say other than perfect! Breathtakingly beautiful, it is literally unreal how well you can draw so so realistic is your work. It's just breathtaking! I'm so thankful that I found your page. I hope to continue to enjoy your work and your drawing technique to help us all. Thank you for sharing! It's so appreciated! God bless you and your career!

You do absolutely beautiful and perfect work. I compliment you! May the good Lord bless you and your career

How marvelous thank you so much for showing us how to do that. Animated help this technique

can we purchase JUST the compass i dont really need everything else I have that.

hi hi hi hi hi🙋

Brilliant tips 👍🏻

This is like one of those bonafide “I mean, well, duh!” moment for me. I kept restricting myself to freehanding it so when someone tells me I can actually measure and pros do it too, I’m like “oh right I can do that too.”

incredible video wow never would have thought of this

I don't know why my lines on rough paper are better than smooth paper, I use the same pen and at the same moment, any idea? thank you

wwooow

Hi Absolutely incredible advice. Many thanks. What make of paper would you recommend for drawing graphite portraits. I do not have the skills to draw photo realism portraits. Pete U.K.

Thank you for this informative tutorial. I was interested to see other methods than the Grid. I look forward to using my proportional divider more. Love your work..
