Not sure how to feel about this though, on one hand it has every step and i’m not sure how hard it is to show shading, seems like more of a skill/practice thing (as a decent artist), but definitely could be a lot more detailed with it like “blend here”, “do stippling here, crosshatching here” or just “smooth shading for whole thing” and “light comes from left so make left light” and etc.
More in depth tutorials would teach you to identify surfaces, like parts of nose, lips, cheeks etc and do a kind of polygonal shading first, blend later. I guess experienced artists may skip that but it's an important step for a tutorial and skipping it was rather cheeky.
Well I think this was supposed to be a bit funny. Also it's a reel, so they aren't going to go into the planes of the face and how to shade. That'd take hours
Well he found time to show adding some bling in slow motion and a ton of detail irrelevant to the portrait while skipping actually important detail. I agree that this is just flex / for teh lulz and nobody should take such vids too seriously.
He drew a bad picture. That I felt was something I could reasonably do as well. And then after drawing the bad picture, proceeded to shade it into art in a way that would have had me put my pencil down and leave.
Yeah this is how these all go. The simplified outline is easy, anyone can do it. But the shading is the most important part that they always rush / fast forward through.
90% of what actually MAKES the picture look the way it does is explained with "shade the face," when that, itself is an extremely technical process that transforms the crude looking sketch into a detailed portrait. More time is spent describing how to do the tiny face piercing than the shading of the entire face and hair.
That's probably fine if the target audience is artists, but to people who don't know art, it's going to look like witchcraft.
Sure he says “shade” but doesn’t really go into how to actually do so. Shading is a lot of technique and work; and he zooms passed it without really going into how to do it
This is correct. Drawing is all about working out the placement of things using basic shapes, as shown with the first outline and the cartoonish style, and then the second half of drawing is all about shading. This is the complete owl.
Dang that was a rollercoaster of trust the process one second it’s like stick figure next second photo realistic you can’t convince me this isn’t some kinda magic or witchcraft. 😂
I did not expect that to look at all good

Oh. So that is how it is done.
I wish we could all share our own attempts.
(x3)
This is amazing. Like… there’s so much I’m impressed with.
Not really a restofthefuckingowl - the entire thing is there, on screen. It even has an audio description (excruciating though that may be).
Short of the guy actually moving your hands for you, I'm not sure what else they could offer.

yeah this post is great. and hilarious. I want this sort of thing to be on this sub
His skill is so high the step between sketch and shading is so rapid it feels like RotfO

Good drawing, of an absolute peace of garbage

Draw a perfect circle
Draw a cat
You drew a cat!

This is just a funny freestyle video over here beat, showing his art skills. I don’t think this is meant to be a real “how to”.
Wrong sub bro
Im not sure if im more impressed with the drawing or the rap!
wtf even after seeing the entire owl drawn, i have no idea how it’s done
No this is very funny.

sounds like: Schfifty Five and I just want bang bang bang
Wow it came out 🔥 and the music slaps.
