Wait ... so one of the most popular comic book artists ever is making free videos giving advice for upstart/beginner illustrators?
Man, this is a perfect example of the benefits of the internet!
Internet = Knowledge
Sharing ideas makes us all better.
It's from his Twitch stream.
Also a perfect example of Jim Lee being a genuinely good guy.
I would have killed to have stuff like this when I was in highschool and was basically not learning things I needed to because my highschool art teacher was an abstract painter and shit at drawing, it really killed my progress over the course of highschool and turned me off to going to art school, and I got a computer science degree instead. It's nuts how much I improved even in my 30's, getting back into drawing simply due to youtube videos. Seriously, my HS art teacher was like anti illustration. We sculpted, painted all sorts of shit but no sketching/illustration.
I kinda love how your marker just hits the paper and suddenly batman appears.... haha Jim you make it all look sooooooooo easy.
😂😂
I mean it kinda is. He draws with a very formulaic art style bc he’s a comic book artist who needs to match deadlines. All you need to do is find your formula
jim lee: “this is probably the worst skull ever”
me: draws a skull
also me: well jim, ur wrong about that
Practice. I hope you have been since this comment. In eleven months you ability improves significantly. Especially if you practice everyday.
@@thatunicornhastheaudacity what about you did you improve in this past 2 months
@Gabriel Gradney it will take about a year
@Gabriel Gradney and in that intense practice, you'll be like Jim Lee.
11 months have passed. I wonder if he's improved?
"Let's just say for the purposes of argument, there's no black hole inside the persons head."
Caleb Voisine-Addis the light could always bend if they were approaching the speed of light.
"Let's just also say for the purposes of argument; that they are not aproaching the speed of light"
Obviously not drawing my ex girlfriend.
"Let's just say for the purposes of argument, we are not drawing your ex Girlfriend"
"Let's just say for the purposes of argument, we're not drawing at all."
Who gave this a thumbs down?!? One of the best figure artists ever is giving away a free lesson here! What's not to love about this?
did anyone gave thumb down??
@@divyanshusingh4175 Kevin is from the past when the dislike button still existed.
@@operatedowl4158 lol yes i was trying to mock youtube about it 😂
there just are these artists where every sketchy line they draw just looks so perfect and so in place !! I hope I'll learn that natural way of drawing soon
Lina me too bc I looove to draw all day long
nope , not gonna be soon , you gotta master methodical and slow way before you can speed it up , there will be less error and look better when you speed up .
Andrew Loomis the great illustrator (you should check out his books), has talked about this. Its called rhythm lines. You can't specifically 'teach' it, it develops with practice. He mentions moving your pencil across the paper without moving your wrist, to develop that sense of rhythm.
There's a book called exactly that "The Natural Way to Draw", check it out!
Just think and familiarize things like simple objects. With regards to human body, just familiarize it and develop geometry in your mind as your guide. Once you have it, it's easy to play those line and shapes and put some detail. I am no expert, just an experience. :)
I remember copying all his work when I was young. He taught me tons.
Same. My “classic” Superman will always be a Jim Lee knockoff.
Your voice is super relaxing man
ASMR
Every time I watch this guy, I feel like I’m being given the keys to the kingdom. Jim Lee = inspiration
A trick I did early on to help me out was to literally draw a faint, miniature little light bulb wherever I wanted to depict my light source coming from. It's great for consistency and you don't have to imagine what the cast shadows might be as much.
At the end, of course, you can go back and erase it. Again, it's a great little tip for beginners to help maintain consistency with their light sources.
You're really good at drawing! Maybe you should start doing comics or something!
hahhaha

@@blossomiest_blossom was looking for the one who wouldn't get the joke and CONGRATULATIONS!! YOU'RE THE WINNER
@@blossomiest_blossom Thank you very much Captain obvious
lx. A big wooooosh
This dudes style defined the 90's
Jim lee is by far my favorite comic artist ever! Something about his art just seems so perfect.
I hate all these "boohoohoo his doodles look better than my serious drawing" comments. He has years upon years of experience. Stop discouraging yourselvles and go practice for fuh sake.
thx
I think it's kind of a compliment
These are always on every video lol
You actually just encouraged me to practice... thx
Theyre more compliments to Jim. Stop being so serious.
Thank you for everything you do for this community ✊🏾✊🏾
Jim Lee i love your drawing
Jim Lee has always been a fantastic teacher! Anyone here remember the Gelatometti blog??
I do
The fact that I’m learning to be a better artist. From the very man that started me on my journey as a child , is the best thing ever!
I just found this. THis is a amazing lesson! It’s amazing to see that all these great artists share their knowledge
I'm glad you're enjoying the videos!
One of the modern day masters at work! Music to my ears just listening to that marker caress the paper!
Im a big Jim Lee fan ever since i started reading xmen comicbooks. Im so happy you're doing these videos here. So inspiring.
i bet his room smells like sharpie
that sound bothers me
I can smell this video now.... why did you do this to me
Fucking creep
@@jedimasterobi-wankenobi6201 play me a song, you're the piano man.
🙂
Shadows on Faces by Jim Lee!! This is the most helpful video on shadows I've ever seen! Thanks Jim!!
I love how that "bad" skull looks better than any skull I've drawn
DEFxRECON hahah awight !
DEFxRECON did you get better
Absolutely Dreadful probably
Absolutely Dreadful probably
Can you please just stop
I wanted so bad to be Jim Lee back in the 90s. Good to see the King giving lessons.
I honestly appreciate your level of mastery at sketching, but I have to say, 4:00 is the first time I've ever seen Batman rock a mustache and beard with a pair of shades.
and a feline nose thing
You must've never seen his son lol
Lol lol once you see it, you can't unsee it
batman after a batbender
This is some great incidental asmr! Jim Lee draws my favorite version of Batman. I love the way his cowl fits. It’s like fabric that is tight on Batman’s head, and you can see the shape of his ears through it. Love love love it.
Art is so simple yet complex, it all boils down to teaching and let me tell you Mr.Lee does it perfectly
I'm surprised he doesn't have more than a million subscribers
Neo Dore he's popping up in my feed and I'm happy. So he'll get there. He's close to a 100k.
Neo Dore Jim Lee doesn't run this channel. he streams on Twitch.
Storse exactly
That man is a master.
I'am trying to become a comicbook artist, and seeing this gives me satisfaction.
These videos of Jim have reinspired me to draw. I just copied 3 of his videos and am decent at drawing any angle now. Goddamn, thanks for the tips, Jim. I'd buy you a beer if you weren't so damn famous
I was searching for a video about shadows for comic books drawings and I've got one of my 2 favourite comic book artists ever (the other is John Romita Sr.) not only at work but also giving me tips on how to draw. Wow. Just wow. Thanks for this video.
Me: Read comic's as a kid. Always wanted to learn to draw.
Today. Starts learning.
Reads: A ton of art books to study.
Work: takes a break every 20 min to maintain focus.
Watches: the guy who wrote those comics that inspired me to do what Im doing today, twenty years ago after the fact. 🤔
what a gift to see such a talent draw. thanks.
You probably won't see this, but Jim, your batman is the definitive look in my mind of batman. Never stop doing what you love my man!!
Jim Lee's voice is so fucking calming that I've fallen asleep a few times to these drawing tutorials
RUclips is absolutely spoiling people. I would have done anything for these lessons when I was a kid. - Appreciated Jim
Damn, EVS on RUclips, now Jim Lee on RUclips, along with John Malin.
I love how the comic book creators of whatever area you work in, are starting to use youtube as a medium to connect with customers & fans of your amazing creations.
Thx Jim Lee for doing this.
Such a great human being. Jim truly makes the world a more beautiful place for us to live in.
his sketches look better than your finished drawings because he knows his proportions anatomy and structure, and that's one of the most important aspects of a good drawing. No finished drawing will look good without decent structure, and being able to do that easily just comes from lots of practice and study. And great videos like this are very helpful in that regard!
I'm in shock that you have a channel and show people how to draw. You were one of my favorite artist in the 90's. I look forward to catching up and learning from you.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I love it, sharpie and white out. The tools don't matter. Its how you use them!
14:32 Look out jim theres a man behind you !
Idk why I laughed so much at that.
I see it too 😂😂
oh no ! jim has headphones on!! JIM LOOK OUT
IM SHIDDING MYSELF HOLY COW JIM LOOK OUT JESUS CHRIST 😳😳
Is that a cut out of Adam?
This artist definitely has a bright future ahead of him. Maybe in comics.
He probably already has a successful career in comics
The level of skill you can see in A SKETCH. He wasn't even trying and those sketches looked better than my fini pieces
'unless there is a black hole inside someones head..there isn't'..well, I'm sold, and subbed
the best and quickest skull i've ever seen
No one :
Random 14-year-olds on the Internet : *oMG I CAN’T DRAW A LINE LMAO KSKSKSKSKSKSKSK 👊😩*
Thats annoying
GOLD XDirience Yeah, uh... that’s the point
Instead of just complaining about it, why don't you encourage em', like " Jim Lee has more years of experience actually drawing than your life time. So if ya still can't draw when you reach that point, then you can cry."
Practice people, we all have that inner "Jim Lee"
Just practice you'll find that inner "Jim Lee"...
@@thatunicornhastheaudacity I agree. Something that many beginner artists don't realize is that all those great artists have had a HUGE amount of practice and so they gained experience from it. Usually people don't realize that unless they reach a certain level of skill/confidence and actually dive deep into it, which is the reason why many people just give up completely from the first few tries.
EDIT: I was (and kinda still ?) one of those people.
@@thatunicornhastheaudacity Probably because it's not my job to teach teenagers and adults that learning a skill takes time and practice and professional instruction and criticism. I'll save the encouragement for someone that is actually trying to learn. The people saying this are trying to either give out a compliment (and they should just give out a compliment instead) or fishing for attention/encouragement.
God of Drawing:JIM LEE Loved his work from the beginning in The uncanny X Men in the early '90's
Finally a video that makes sense and explains exactly what i want to learn
I read years ago in wizard magazine he was gonna go to school to be a doctor and decided to get into comics and taught himself how to draw. That boy good.
Dumb question, but does this apply to other types of art styles as well? (other than comic art style)
I would say so.
michael.m “dumb question”💀
@@VZAAGE can you do the same thing for manga style please
@@blankabb1289 yes. almost anything that applies to comics also applies to manga
@@justinesalud2455 i thinks Manga style it's way too different it has their own shapes style etc and i wanted to see how well a comic master can fit in it
I can just smell the video from watching it
Mmmh... You should call a doctor
Im so happy I was alive during the 90's to see the rise of Jim Lee and the other Image founders
I could watch Jim doodle and draw all day long 🤯
I love this video. Straight to the point 😂😂
DAMN this would have been helpful about 10 years ago, when I was really into comic book shadowing! Great video. Subalicious!
When Jim draws DC and Marvel characters together
Me: Wait that's illegal
Esan Giri it doesn’t matter
The whole damn video I didn't notice that in the background - then at 14:32 I nearly fell out of my seat
These lessons have helped me a great deal. Thank you for taking the time.
Bruh, watching u draw is so satisfying...
I like how he gets ideas in the middle of the sketch where he just decides to go: "oh hey, this could be batman" (adds bat ears) and "this looks like daredevil, yeah it's daredevil" (adds horns)
This is high quality ASMR content
If you cloth your eyes it's better cuz picture is offset
Thank you so much for this vid! I'm making a little sci-fi dectecive kinda one shot and i need these tips to do dramatic shots and stuff lol
Very glad you found the video helpful. Keep at it.
The way on how he explain everything is so simple yet so satisfying and very understandable. I like it. I'll watch more vids of yours. 😀
This makes me wanted to learn even more. Thank you Mr. Jim Lee!!
Thanks Jim Lee for teach me the draw shadows !
anyone else got goosebumps watching this?
*When his doodles look better than your finally drawing*
or leave this universe to another "non-exist Jim Lee" planet
*and it took you more than 2hrs to draw*
Xx X 😅
He's practiced for hours a day, days to the week, weeks to the months, and years to his life. I guarantee you that if you keep producing, and practicing, the final drawing you create now will be sketch worthy in your future.
Toxic Melody yeah this Jim guy is on wekipedia
What an amazing video to get to see for free.
This was like fifteen minute of intense school.
I learn alot from Jim Lee
Very straightforward. Thank you so much. This is very helpful. I can make characters look more intimidating now.
Subbed, love how u just use paper and marker, I literally just saw a girl with a electric erasers blending tools and five different pencils for drawing an eye
Lol but u are great
Dude when Jim moved his example drawings, I know I wasn't the only DC fan that looked at cyborg like, DUUUUDE! FRIGGEN' JIM LEE I SWEAR 😂😂😂😂HIS ART IS PROFECTION!
I know this is over a year old but how in the hell does this have ANY dislikes? Do people not realize how lucky we are to live in a time where this info is provided for free to everyone?
The Ultimate Master!!! Too simple and Helpful! Thanks!!!
So much admiration and respect, Jim. For pretty much all my life thank you!
If you are writing this is very valuable information if you plan the time and where the sun/ light source is coming from.
Jim Lee is just amazing 😍
Even at without exerting that much effort, His doodles look 50% better than my full effort drawings
Thank you for the wonderful knowledge!
This tutorial was exactly what I was looking for! Thank you so much!
To all of you watching the master and crying about your doodles:
Helps if you remember that Jim Lee was sitting in your position, looking at his favourite artists' work, and then crying over his own doodles. And so day after day after day after day, to this very day and onto tomorrow. Jim can look back and say, "I have made progress", but I doubt he will ever say, "right, I have achieved perfection", because if he said that, he would never do art again.
An artist must be dissatisfied. Stay focused and chase the dragon.
Makes drawing look so easy
The sound of that sharpie soooo good
Hi! Excellent lighting tutorial! Who has time to read a Lighting Chiaroscuro Book these days? Was curious as how the heck did Artist Jim Lee stop his Permanent Black Sharpie Marker from "bleeding thru" onto his other superb artwork underneath? Is he using that fancy strong illustration paper made from ground stone?
Yes, he uses amzn.to/2Xbw8Tb
That 6 second Iron Man face was incredible!
hey Jim. I am a huge fan of your work, have been since I read your work on Xmen. Thanks heaps for posting these how to vids
You know it's gonna' be good when you can smell the Sharpie.
Stumbled apon your channel and am finally getting tips for wanting to make comics. Thank you. I subscribed
I got the chills when I saw that creeper just seconds before the video faded out. I hope you're okay, Jimmy.
The markers audio is out of sync and it’s driving me crazy 😜
Daniel Haddock i noticed that right away too lol also the sound of the marker drives me nuts
I saved this video to watch later, I'll have to remember how the shading works, but I don't want to blackened all the face out I'll do it with pencil shading the direction of where the light is setting maybe a circle of where the sunlight maybe as example of where the shading should be.
Fantastic tutorial! I love your animation style.
este si que es un maestro ! se nota nada más verle que sabe lo que hace :)
this if he is a teacher, it is obvious that he knows what he is doing
( translated by the google translator )
YOU ARE A GREAT ARTIST AND GREATER TEACHER! THANK YOU!
This is absolute gold.
Lee might consider using a black canvas, which is possible in Photoshop. I would like to see what he could do on a Wacom tablet.
you are an awesome drawwing teacher i learned from you thanks jim
Amazing art you are a breathtaking artist your videos are better than my art class I totally get what you talking about and now I feel more confident about what I’m going to draw next hey also one question with like color light where exactly in the face does it reflect from for example your holding your phone up to your face in a dark room where and how can I draw light like that?
