You're welcome, I hope it's helpful 🙂

Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad it's helpful

Thank you, that means so much!

Thank you for your comment. Your support and encouragement mean a lot to me! I'm working on new drawing videos, but my next ArtRage is still simmering 🙂

Thanks!

Thanks Thanks Thanks

I think you'll really like it. One of the things I like about the desktop version is the ability to make the brush size as large as you like-really helpful when you want those big areas of wash color.

I agree. After trying the others this is the one I keep coming back to.

Thanks for your kind words, they mean a lot. I wish you the best and hope your journey learning to draw isn't frustrating. Drawing can be so fun and rewarding! 😊

Thanks! 😀

Thanks for your comment. I chose the example of drawing a cat because it touched on the broader idea that these skills of observing negative shapes and angles apply to anything we draw. A "cat" is a "thing" in the same sense that "eye" is a "thing"- our brains have a stored visual library of these "things", these symbols that we've learned since childhood. You're right, I could have used "hair", since when we were children we learned to treat hair as a symbol as well when we drew people. But for the point I was trying to make, the idea extends beyond drawing portraits. When drawing from observation it applies to everything.

“Forget the name of that which you are drawing.” You’re not drawing eyes, or a car, etc, you’re drawing shapes and lines that will create the eye, or the car.

@@EvanDahill Exactly. Thanks for your comment

@@laurenball_illustrator if I could impart thus on my grandsons, they’d become terrific artists.

@@EvanDahill Thanks for your comment, that means a lot 😊

Thank you, that means a lot! 🥰

Thank you, that means a lot! I do spend a lot of time on them

Thanks! 🥰

You're welcome! Thanks for your comment 😀

Tracing was only used at the beginning to point out key features. The actual drawing was done straight from observation (starting at about 8 minutes). As far as being a bad artist... yeah, my inner critic would agree 😬

You're welcome! I'm glad it was helpful 😊

If the subject is looking at you face on that is fine. But what about when the subject’s face is viewed at an angle?

@@ankhpom9296 What a great question! You're right, when we look at the subject facing directly to the front it seems easier. That's because the features match how we've always drawn them since we were children. But when the head turns all those features no longer match those face symbols we've been relying on. Now they're just a bunch of unfamiliar shapes. This forces us to try and observe the negative shapes around the features, and if you haven't been practicing this it can be frustrating. Here's a recent video I made about this: ruclips.net/video/U4QLKoceaIo/видео.html

I'm glad it helps! Thanks for your comment

Thanks for your comment! I'm glad it was helpful. I think this one skill is the most important and will help you in every drawing you do. The quicker you can master it the faster you'll improve as an artist.

What a great idea! It's good to hear the different ways we process and try to make sense of the complicated forms in front of us. I'm glad to hear you're getting back into drawing!

You're welcome! I'm glad it helps, and thanks for your comment

You're welcome, thanks for your comment!

That's a great question. I like to think it simplifies things. With the more familiar 1/3 grid you want to place your area of interest where one of the horizontal and vertical lines intersect. With just one horizontal line and one vertical line all you have to do is make sure your area of interest is in one of the four squares. You'll find that this places the area of interest very close to the same place as the 1/3 grid. So, with fewer grid lines you get the same result. Another benefit is that you will become less dependent on grid lines in general. They can become a crutch if you rely on them too much.

You're welcome! Thanks for your kind words and encouragement. I do have more planned

That's a good idea, I'll start researching it and practice

You're welcome! I'm glad it's been helpful

You're right, the "Random Pose" button used to be located in the main menu, under the "Add Inventory" button. The older versions of Pose Tool 3D did not provide any pre-set poses, so the "Random Pose" button was the only option besides posing figures completely from scratch. Now the new version does provide poses (under the "Add Inventory" button). And they've added a new feature "Face Pose". This new "Face Pose" button is where the "Random Pose" button used to be. I think this is a much better process than before, since now you can choose from one of the preset poses and be much closer to your imagined pose than if you just kept hitting the "Random Pose" button numerous times till something sort of useful hopefully showed up. I hope you find the new preset poses helpful as a starting point. They do keep adding new ones with each update.

Thanks for your encouragement. I'm planning more! 🙂

Thanks for commenting! I used to use Sketchup for that exact thing. I always use my room as a learning exercise to test out these modeling apps. And I would still be using Sketchup now except it's too expensive. When I searched for a free alternative I discovered FormIt and after learning to use it I can't believe how much better it is. Good luck on modeling your room!

@@laurenball_illustrator big love for u😍

You're so kind, Thanks! 😊

Yes

WHAT?! That is so damn cool! And so frustrating that in my months of research I didn't see that. Thanks for sharing!

You're welcome! I'm working more now

You're welcome! I hope it helps you dive in with more confidence than I had. Once I understood these interface behaviors it has been so much fun. Thanks for your encouragement!

Oh my... that is the highest praise, I can't tell you how much it means to me! It makes the months of effort worth it🥰

Thanks for the comment! I agree, you should be able to make great art with the default brushes. If not, I'm sorry but no brush set is gonna fix your problem 🤔🙂

There are two other apps I've used that are great alternatives for android: PoseIt and ArtPose Pro

Not so, it's on Steam for the PC.

Thanks for your comment. You're so lucky to get to discover ArtRage's watercolor features. I remember my own amazement at these tools. I hope you make some great paintings!

Thank you, I can't tell you how much I appreciate your kind words and support!

Try copying the link and opening an incognito window and pasting it in the search bar. Beyond that I'd try clearing the browser cache. I've tested it on mobile (iPhone and Android) with Chrome, Google, and Safari. Also Chrome, Google, and Safari work on iPad as well. Let me know if any of this helps

Thank you for your kind words! I'm glad it was helpful. I'm planning more videos, and your comment means a lot
