If you struggle to get your characters to feel solid, or even human at all, it's probably because you don't have a base to build your anatomy on. Let's see how to use mannequins to understand to move a figure in space.

Thanks for explaining without sounding like you hate your audience 👍
I hate that I understand what you mean by this. Tone is huge 😅
the swapping out cylinders for the limbs to boxes has helped me so much. at first i couldnt understand where the top and sides and stuff of the limbs were because it can be hard to tell on images with little contrast between lighting and shading but with practice, using boxes for the limbs, getting the right orientation has become a million times easier. this is one of the best art tutorials i have ever come across, thank you so much!!!
Yeah that makes a huge difference! Though notice it's still okay to draw the cylinder first, and the box on top of it, if it's hard to figure out the box on its own
@@theartofnemo thank you for the tip!!
i am a noob, like noob noob regarding drawing.
i've been watching videos to kinda grasp concepts and have a clear starting point.
You, Sir, are, to this date, still the best video I've ever came accross.
This video was a missing part of my own drawing journey puzzle, and I hope more people will come across your content because you deserve it.
Glad I could help! And thank you for your kind words!
Probably the first lesson I've seen that wasn't the most Vague advice, or the most articulate tutorial at 2x speed
2:30 The right side is what I’ve been stuck on. Finally someone who doesn’t just tell me to “just draw basic shapes here and there”. and provides a 10 second timelapse of them drawing the left side without any good explaination on what they’re doing.
Glad I could help! :D More to come, you can actually make it easier to transition from box mannequin to figure once you get used to it, by wrapping it all in one boxy pillow shape
Man I have so much confidence then when I actually decide to put it into action… yeah… 😔
No worries, comes with mileage :)
OMG!!!!! This is PERFECT! Thank you so much! I've been trying to reach that "oh this makes sense now" moment with anatomy for ages and this finally did it for me! So seriously thank you! I now have something I can actually practice and build on!
Glad it helped!
I ALMOST CRIED, THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️❤️🩷🩷🩷
tysm this the best video for anatomy i ever watched
Thank you!
I was having trouble drawing legs last night, and after doing some more inspecting into my drawing, I noticed that the proportions are a little off. Glad I found this video this morning. I'm going to start practicing more of the proportions. Thank you so much!❤
That's great!
you are the most pure art youtuber ever!, now i can draw the anatomy like Thanos!
Please don't snap me out of existence! lol
Your channel is so underrated, you always share great and new art tips in every video! Thank you so much for sharing all of this with us!
Thank you so much!
yeah this is awesome video
bro ive been through soo many videos and yours is easily the best one by far! your showing EVERYTHING i was looking for in a video as a beginner, thank youuuuu
Neat! Happy to hear it was helpful for you :)
Zendaya was catching horrible strays, tysm for the video, we appreciate you!
Thanks to you for watching! :D
Thank you! This has made the most sense for me of any anatomy video that I've seen so far
Glad I could help!
I can't thank you enough man! No kidding, I learned a lot in just a day and I'm really excited that I can do something decent for once.
Really, thank you.
Happy to help!
Thanks Nemo, you're amazing. I fin that this rule applies to all areas of art the more I delve into it: going from macro to micro is the key. When composing scenarios and paintings, for example, just blocking out the big shapes to get everything correct such as perspective, volumes, and colors, and then slowly rendering and adding more details little by litte is the way to go. The same goes for anatomy. We should focus on getting a very simple mannequin in the correct proportions and perspective, instead of trying to render a fully-fleshed out body.
Thank you! Glad it helped!
Interesting and helpful
Glad it was helpful!
Amazing video, instructive and I loves the little jokes and references, it was just the video I needed for starting drawing the body!
Hey, thanks for watching! Glad you liked the jokes too :D
Nemoooooo... You are the MAN!
This is the mannequinization video that's gonna hit us as hard as Krenz Cushart hit you!
Plus speaking of Krenz in your other video, I like the angle-to-the-viewer system he does. 0° 22.5° 45° 67.5° 90°
Rotation is never arbitrary 👍😎
Yeah he's a beast!
amazing, to the point content without fluff
thank you
Glad you liked it!
Litaraly basing my whole careare of this vid, well done u just made a manga artist. fr tho thank u so much man
Man I hope you also have better resources than me lol
the only tutorial that is actually helpful!!! thanks a lot Nemo
Thanks to you!
Me: tries to draw figures with the help of a book, after a bit better understanding of 3D...
Also me: cant read all the orientation of books writers “dolls“
... cant sleep at night because of thinking about what the f... hes doing wrong ;_;
So... box people it is then i guess
It takes time, don't worry :D
Thanks a lot for this! Been struggling with anatomy!
My pleasure!
Very nicely explained,thanks
Glad you liked it!
Great video, really big thanks
Glad it was helpful!
It's almost the same with mathmatics in school: So many understand formulas directly and some needs years to understand one formula. Sketching a character is the key to draw everything.
I might be in the second group for math haha
Thank you
oo nice info
enjoyed the zendaya stray W vid really helped
Really helpful 👍
Glad to hear that!
Very helpful video, thanks so much for sharing! 😊 This topic is where I'm now in my art journey! Besides RUclips videos I also consult drawing books, so if you ever write a book on these subjects please let us know 😉
Happy to hear it was useful!
I might work on something relat s to anatomy at some point yeah :D
Thanks a lot 🙏
You're welcome!
Thank you for your helpfull video :D
Thanks for watching!
Congrats on 5k subs! Next stop: 10k
Thank you! Fingers crossed!
I have a question for the basic proportion lines, how do you measure the proportion if you draw the character in any other pose? (like sitting or crouching)
Eh not really, that's why I said they should be as few as possible. You gotta eyeball and get a feeling for the other poses, especially when foreshortened
Thanks nemo for the video, btw i want to ask you, what website did you use to generate a random pose to draw in 10 seconds
Thanks for watching! That's posemaniacs
Well done! You've left me genuinely impressed.
Thank you!
I just started drawing like 2 days ago, is it alright to move to this even though I haven't fully grasped 3d shapes or perspective yet? I feel like if I practice this I'll learn those along the way as well, while also focusing on them for practice at other times. What do you think?
2 days? No, practice the exercises from my warmup video and the one skill
What if I want to draw a 2d model? Then do I use the flat boxes?
2d like cartoon network style? Then you don't need this, shape design is enough (I will have a video about it soon!)
@@theartofnemo okay thank you
Can you make the sheet on google docs or ,Ah be pictures? I can’t open the file up haha
Nvm I gots it
Cool! Was there an issue with the zip?
What software do you use for the sketches
Like these ?
Great video btw
Thanks for your comment! I use Clip Studio Paint. You can get my brushes (free) from the video about it, the beginners guide
@@theartofnemo alright thanksss
Saving the video for later
Still trying to figure out what Bridgman wants from me with all his poses and lines
Bridgman is really hard to understand, I highly recommend doing mannequins first to get a sense of space :)
3:15 Why does the ribcage look like that?
The top of the box I get, as it's to illustrate the narrower shoulders of the female form. But why is the bottom part of the box smaller too, making the middle part the widest area? Why not just make the entire horizontal box narrower, like with the pelvis?
What is the line in the middle supposed to indicate? Is there an angle change in between the front part of the chest area that's necessary to make distinct in this very simplified stage of mannequinization? Or is it just simply flat, and the pure front view is just making it hard to make that distinction clear?
I honestly only ever gave the female mannequin a box like the male so far, so this is a bit to take in.
Because it's not a ribcage, it indicates the breast too :D so it's coming towards us
Actually, body propotion is 7.5 head tall🤓☝️
Yeah I was referring to the one taught in many art books like Loomis
Maybe we can make it 7 head to the ankles to make it roughly more accurate then ?
So we are supposed to just ...eye ball the proportions? I really cant get hips roght at all
When you say can't get it right you mean size? Like with to height ratio?
The thing is, if you do character design the ratio is really variable
@@theartofnemo like hips to chest ratio, head size, hand size, just kinda all of it other than the arm length
@@MALICEM12 Hmmm do you have discord? You can post your doubts on our server (art-feedback channel) and I can take a look. The only reason I mentioned not to focus too much on proportions is because it gets people confused, so eyeballing should be enough (or so I thought)
I guess I have trouble with different body types. Like the mannequin covers skinny people but like more buff people or fat people is kind of hard. Or I guess like the proportions of kids and stuff like that. Babies chibi type characters I guess.
You can just make the forms larger really :D I might make an example soon
@@theartofnemo Noce. Thanks
This Michio Kaku's son?!? Sounds just like him
Me? lol, isn't he japanese?
@@theartofnemo Yeah! Bro, that means you got samurai ancestry😱🤯.
Nah, but thanks for the vid, I still suck at drawing tho😀👍
@@Rezy. Could be! I live in japan anyway, they might have influenced me lol
No need to put my girl zendya on the spot like that 😭
IS THAT RADIANT BLACK??!
Which one?
@@theartofnemo the sketch in the first and last parts of the video
Look at the time of the video
1 more second
Oh God, I just noticed lol
ngl i just wanna draw hot women
nice video but the zendaya comment was misogynist and unnecessary
It's called joke, it's not meant to be serious, as made clear by the tone. People on the internet are too touchy
@@theartofnemo ok but isn't jokes supposed to be funny, tho? Absolutely unnecessary, your content is amazing, you don't need that.
@@rafaelbruno2128 Seems funny to me honestly
That really helped me a lot...... explanation and all the representation was really great ..thanks a lot
Glad it was helpful!
Will support you through your entire content journey!
Thanks for your support! It means a lot :)
My proportions are coming out crooked 🥲
Takes time to get it right!
