Which artist do you want to see next? Or are there any specific illustration that you want to see a breakdown of? I wanna do more image copy study since this one was weirdly fun and helpful 🌝
Your take on a breakdown of hidari's charming artstyle would be interesting to see. His approach to materials and color palette, really makes it seems like you are reading a book, especially his illustrations on Record of Lodoss War-Deedlit in Wonder Labyrinth, and Fire emblem echoes.
Was hoping you could do nijisanji’s Nina Kosaka’s illustrator (@soubin), I highly admire their works and would love to see their style be broken down! Another one I’d like to see analyzed is Chloe’s artist parsley. Thanks again!
Forreal, I even end up giving up an art piece either because it's taking a long time to finish or I get bored of it just to start a new one 😭. It's admiring how he continues to study, edit, finish a piece, and such.
@@raptorboss6688 Thanks for the encouragement! Although i personally don't have much time and I don't really like continue drawing on the same canvas on different days
I'm honestly more curious on how he decides the composition/pose for his characters. He says "texture before painting", but even if you remove those and leave just the flats and lineart, it already looks good because of how appealing the character appears in the first place.
Definitely! There was a lot on how he approach drawing composition in the online course, such as the importance of 3 point perspective. Sadly, he didn't really mention how he came up with ideas and poses... I would love to know how he came up with them as well 😵
So what I'm getting from this is Mogoon wouldn't be able to do it if he didn't reach this kind of level of mastery before starting the 100 day challenge. It really hit me at 2:32 when it came to materials. There's just so much hidden expertise on top of it all!
And to reach this kind of level you just need a change of mindset. People practice to draw better but they don't really practice to make drawing easier for them. Things such as stop scribbling and using too much construction shapes and draw loose silhouette lines instead and as few lines as possible. It makes a lot of difference. Sometimes I don't even need lineart since the sketch is so clean it works as it is. Also, I set pen pressure to be very sensitive so I put almost no strength in my hand. This makes me able to draw for hours without getting tired. I used to take hours to draw a single character but now I go from blank canvas to finished lineart in 15~30 minutes without much effort. By the way, drawing gets a lot more fun when you can do it effortlessly. Nowadays, I enjoy drawing daily and filling layers of drawings since I get good results quickly without getting tired.
@@SoulGuitarMetal "to make drawing easier" seriously, once I started focusing on this one, everything else got automatically better. that's why i'm so grateful for pro artists who share their process, especially real time like some do. we can learn a lot by watching them do their thing, a lot of times.
@@OperiaX if you're interested, i know one and i follow them because they like to share little details on some specifics like for doing lighting, hairs, etc, It's Coax Illust, but their style is semirealism though
The first point about his lineart being more "sketchy" than "typical anime art" is interesting, bc I actually find that from far away, most pro anime artists lines look neat at first, but if you zoom in you really see how sketchy everything is, but they manage to make it look so refined! Speaking from my experience, trying to make lineart "as neat as possible" is a bad move. It actually makes the process of shading harder (for me) and it makes things feel plasticky while shading idk how to describe it otherwise, but I guess artificial is another word. I think this is because when your lines are super neat, your colouring has to also be super neat so things would match together - but the catch is having to make colours neat ends up being undynamic as hell, but if u try to make it normal/"messy" the lineart would feel out of place. The catch here is to aim to make lines more dynamic weight wise and stuff instead of "perfectly neat". Ofc this isn't a universal rule bc it depends on your kind of shading, but if you're aiming for soft shading and a painterly style it helps to make things a bit more loose :").
Wow that's very interesting thank you! I've been trying to make my line art quite neat and clean since I thought that it would look nicer, but when it came to rendering, my image turned out looking artificial as you said. Incredible point, I'll keep this in mind for my future illustrations! 👌
@@tppoart Np! Also your study turned out super awesome!! Immediately subbed to your channel! But yeah I feel you on the lineart thing bc I too have a habit of trying to make them super neat, only to suffer later while colouring - 2 years ago I was working on a commission, and when it came to colouring it it felt so wrong no matter what I did that I actually scrapped the lineart (all that work for nothing 😭) that I did and refined the sketch a bit instead and it turned out SO much better! It's so important to find the lineart that suits your colouring and not fall into the trap of neat = good. For example for me, my colouring style uses a lot of overlay glowing. If I make my lines too thin the glowing effects will really eat the lines up. So yeaa
I currently have this problem 😭 I thought it has something to do with being a perfectionist, I sketch, not satisfied, I refine it, and it ends up being super rigid and then adding base color and shading has to be neat as well. It takes away soo much time and creative freedom to tweak the art here and there (because you need to tweak the lineart first).
u know what i suddenly get this after doing linearts for months now i got fooled into thinking theyre trying to perfect it down but it just needs to look good far away so limit zooming in
Something I noticed on his bilibili page is that his videos start with the sketch already done and a lot of his drawings take anywhere from 3 to 8 hours... that's still INSANELY fast! But it's nice to know that even with a seasoned artist like that, it takes a full day of work to get something that nice (especially for someone like me who doesn't have free time, it's freeing)
he is quite an exception even among pros, his 100 day challange is quite something, that might be close to impossible to many people. If u have follow some pro artist, they actually take days to finish, less than a week, but still days in same field. Magoon ranging from 3-8 hours, maybe 10 hour at most if we count rough is really INSANE.
do you ever get a roadblock from studying these artists and dont know what to do? i am rly in awe how you managed to analyze and comprehend artworks. not to mention sharing it in this format. holy shit man
Yeah all the time! If I get really stuck I just skip the study and come back later. This is actually my second attempt trying to study mogoon since the first time I just couldn't understand his coloring techniques. This time around I found the online course and his livestream so it kinda worked out 👍
From experience I feel like adding filters and blending modes to your work and pushing them is a really good way to build a sense of what your art can look like and how you like to balance out your colors. Over time it’ll just become how you illustrate or paint and you won’t need blending modes to do that as much anymore. It’s the same “you can’t draw what you haven’t seen” principle just with color and contrast
@@tppoart no problem! I started to notice I was using better colors even though I was using blending modes and less and just refining how I use them. Really cool how doing and exploring affects art
Despite the art's anatomy, composition, and shading, the texture is my big problem when it comes to rendering. I love this sketch feeling some artists put into their art. I'm bad when it comes to brushes as the texture always looks out of place when done by me.
OMG OMG OMG HE DID IT HE F KING DID IT AAAAAAAAAAAA I've recently wanted to try copying mogoon's style but I didnt understand his coloring technique since I only watched a few of his streams during the 100 day art challenge so this video is a GODSEND!
Tracing someone's work is a proven practice for every aspiring artist out there, I have been teaching on Arts university for 8 years and taught this process to my students. *Just don't claim it as your own work.*
I'll be honest here, no matter how hard you focus when drawing for improvement. It'll always will take a very, very long time. And I mean years due to understanding your failures and willing to improve upon them on your next creation (This goes for any work process not just drawings) To achieve a higher standard such as these artists isn't just years because time is only dependant on what you spend it on so what you must always do is simple; just keep drawing. Draw thousands upon thousands of sketches, anatomy, base shapes, perspectives, objects, backgrounds, lighting, shading, colouring, line art. EVERYTHING. if you truly want to become better. It is very helpful to copy other artworks from artists and from random images everywhere on the internet no matter what to get a great sense of things; but you got to observe as to how it works. Like body positioning, lighting directions, folds of clothing everything. Because if you dare try to draw from your imagination you will most certainly not understand as to what you are doing and as to that problem is simple. You weren't learning, you were over complicating things, you weren't admitting your errors to yourself. Big artists like these all had to go through the hard way because there is no shortcuts, it's always extreme perseverance and constant dedication. YOU CAN'T create a style if you don't know the basics and haven't practice enough to understand how certain things work. So in conclusion, time is a vital concept with drawing. But that only depends if you are learning from it and do it constant enough so it can permanently stay inside your brain for the long term process in life (oh yeah good tip is always use basic shapes first with sketching no matter how annoying it can be because that oval shape will help ya with proportions and perspectives so much with bodies and heads or anything) XD
On artists who upload almost daily, I had figured from my years of talking with many artist in professional and hard fandom is 1. Working on multiple work at Once 2. Painting then Line Works/Border Effect 3. Pre-made Pose/Compositions (Folder full of Rejected Poses/WIPs from sketches and doodles) 4. Frankenstein old artworks to create new composition and reference (same as above) 5. Re-uploading past works Overall, having reference and strong understanding what you're looking at and what you want seems to be key. Still a lot of work, must of been a long journey. Thanks for sharing and amazing breakdown.
For me, I've always been heavily stuck on the colouring process. I overthink it and then lose direction, so my works are often left half-finished or barely started. Your videos clarified my brain clutter and they are truly a joy to just watch. Thank you so much for your dedication!
it's fascinating how your own style still shows in the copy, even after all that extensive research. Your piece looked more smooth and blended, while Mogoon's is more block-textured coloring and less lineart. This is still an amazing study nonetheless; you put in a lot of effort and it really shows. Looking forward to more of these in the future!
Studying other artists by copying their work 1:1 is not something content creators wanted to do these days because usually this is just personal grinding as an artist. This is the part where it is sooooo boriiingggg yet you made it educational. Love your contents..
Edit: Your video studies are so interesting and refreshing. In world where the art field is so competitive, and speed paint videos out there that add to the pressure of unrealistic art goals, your videos are a nice reminder that people have different ways of painting that we can learn and study from.
Yes! Preparation is so key! Thumbnailing, rough sketches and coloring can definitely save you time. I can't tell you how many hours I've wasted trying to figure out how lighting and shadows work, how the background's gonna look etc.
It was after a few months or weeks when the pandemic hit, just found out this guy jeonghee and his 100 day challenge and it just surprised me how he created such art in 100 days every day.. What a beautiful pieces And also so many artist done the chalange.. it was great back then
This channel is god. How could I didn’t discover this channel for sooooo long?! He pays tone of time and effort to analyse different artists work to share with us!!! Love ur videos and I have gone though all of them already :) please keep it up cause the content u are making is the thing I have been searching for soooooo long!!!!!
mogoon / modare is one of my favorite artists, his skills are so balanced (composition, line drawing, painting, color and values). thank you for doing an in-depth analysis of his process! this was very informative yet so engaging to watch with your commentary and the editing.
i love doing this, especially with animation too to figure out how they did certain special effects. its like a scientific breakdown/pick apart of what makes your favorite peices look the way they do
Man, I hope your channel grows because I enjoy your content so much! The way you explain how the artists do their artwork and put them into practice really shows your dedication. Really hope that you keep pumping videos!
Please do more like this!! I love the editing and the breaking down of how to do the illustrations with different artists! Please do continue i'd loved to learn more coming from you!! Man you posting vids like this is really a life-saver!! I cant thank you enough!
I love learning about different techniques to incorporate in my art! Even though I’ve gotten to a part of very, veryyyy, slow progression (for me this symbolizes that I have grown to a place where I have grown a very good understanding of a lot of concepts in art and been able to execute them) so learning how I can better tweak and grow my pieces really helps. I know once you get to a place like this you feel stuck and like you aren’t making any progress, but you are! Honestly I’m happy with this stage because not only do I finally, for once in my life, love my artwork and feel proud of it, I can push my art in different ways and incorporate different style techniques and ways of doing things so make my process faster and more enjoyable. I still have a lot to learn, because when do you not, and I can’t wait to further my art. Even if the process is slower than it’s been my whole life lol. Thank you for this super helpful breakdown! Totally gonna incorporate some of the interesting techniques in my own work and see how I like it!
I also purchased Mogoon's course and OH MY GOSH was it overwhelming! the amount of depth he has, especially on lighting, is insane. I do want to improve and it's fun to see other people taking his course. Honestly, it's incredibly helpful because I've tried to do my own copy studies and I can learn from other people's copy study's and see if I missed anything in my own process. Thank you for everything!! you have a new follower! ^_^
This has be to the best guide I ever have seen, not just on RUclips. The fucking video editing and music choice is just absolutely superb and the breakdowns are super clear and even comes with time stamps. With all that said I challenge you to try to imitate 野生西酱’s art.
Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but since you are using and publishing artists paid content: it will be nice if you will actually mention the artists paid links in the end like: "Their social links and everything is in the description below, and please consider supporting them on their subscription service or getting Mogoons coloso cource as there is a lot of things he mentions there." Because you are essentially making money off their paid content and publishing it online. Overall a very nice video, a good speed through with the coloso course. I am actually susbcribed to it, but still need to finish it since its so long haha.
You cannot believe how much I've been stalking my notifications tab these past days waiting with bated breath for you to upload tppo!! I cannot stress how much I ADORE your channel 💞 Quality content with blistering insight! Please keep going, your content is my only source of life and jubilation!!!!
This is extremely helpful, as a digital artist I tend to fall into the trap of the artwork needing to be "perfect", which will lead me into spending days or even 1-2 weeks on 1 illustration, leading to quick burnouts. I feel like this artist really perfected consistency without sacrificing time, energy, mental health, and is overall burnout free. I think I should try this technique, and see if I'm able to make 20 drawing in 20 days without burning myself out
while the technical aspects of materials, lighting, and layering techniques are important for drawing fast, the reason why Mogoon draws so well is due to his incredible understanding of composition. This includes things like value structure, balance, big/med/small, flow/rhythm, etc. You can learn about all sorts of tools and scientific principles, but at the end of the day we're still creating art, and art follows a visual language that you need to understand and get good at in order for your paintings to look good.
PLS a video on composition would be so helpful! I never have ideas or if I do it's hard to make the the composition look good TvT Awesome video by the way!! ❤️ I've learned so much!
6:48 as korean... that's... a meme lol, popular in korea, faker(LOL player) took a advertisement, in ad he says "can you please turn off the light" maybe this artist thought this painting should be bright? idk lol
I feel like we're perfect opposites of each other. We both work our asses off to become world class illustrators, but with one difference. I spend most of my time improving my drawing skills but neglecting my painting skills, and when I watch your stuff I get the feeling you're doing it the other way around lol. Good job on your channel though. You're doing great. I want to make a RUclips channel too but I can't get my resolve together.
This channel is wayyy too underrated, such a gem that I accidentally found thanks to the youtube recommendations! Keep the good work up man! On a serious note, the term "Think like an AI" hit me like a truck because of how AI generated art is with these days, I'm in a dump and this video really put me back up, I can't thank you much for what you've done for people like me. Thank you.
what's interesting is that, as an artist, I never ever saw an image or a live of Mogoon. But many many things you've pointed in that one video are stuff I already apply in my own workflow. The way I layer my flat colours, the way I use texture before going into painting mode, the way I work first on my focus point,... Even the part where I use soft brush to make my base painting before I switch to hard brush for polishing the work. I'm not saying I'm at the lvl of Mogoon far from it, but I feel strangely happy that I realise I got many of these technique basically from analysing artworks from other artists and rarely speedpainting. I follow Emilyena who has a similar process as well, simply a different style and brush types. But I got these from speedpaint like you and not from actual courses on "how to draw" (I feel like I'm throwing flowers at myself x') ) But that means I've grown as an artist and I'm glad this video showed me that. You have no idea how long, as a young artist, it takes to realise that all those hours of work are actually working. thanks for this ^^
i feel like the line art workflow of Mogoon definitely deserve further elaboration. There are full of artists that spend countless hours to finish a smooth line art but Mogoon is different. His line art looks sort of wobbly and sketchy but still clean as fuck and such magic contributes to his insane painting speed
This doesn't feel good. You're essentially purchasing an artist's courses and condensing/summarizing the key points so you can make money from them on youtube. I know imitating artists to learn their techniques is a thing, but the fact that you took someone's paywalled content to profit off of it does not feel good to me at all.
this is something that im beginning to believe that i might never be able to do but ive always admired good line work and sketches and this line work is so crisp. Ive always wanted to draw like this 0:59 for reference. just the perfect placement of the eyes and the mouth and how it looks together just makes it feel very amazing
It's honestly rare for me to stumble upon an art channel i haven't already heard of, but you my friend are definitely the exception. Super high quality video, keep it up!
Great video! another beast of mass producing drawings is Hungry Clicker. He usually finishes a work after the announcement of a game character within minutes of the announcement. Nobody knows how
Not only is this channel great by premise alone, the editing really impresses me. You're unlike any other art channel out there that I know of. Love your vids, and I'm looking forward to the next one
Bro you don’t know how useful this is to me, as an advanced artist. All I could find on RUclips was “beginner level” drawing stuff. Thanks for the amazing content and the insane dedication
Today I found you and your videos have helped me understand art a little bit more the effort you put into each video or rather the time is something to admire for me since I can't exactly do that thank you for your videos!
I think it's mostly the composition and design of the overall artwork that contribute the most to its overall success. Mogoon drew 1 illustration a day with a hit on each piece because Mogoon has the knowledge and experience to come up with appealing designs plus Mogoon was using iconic figures (successful character designed check). The most valuable things to copy is the design ideas. I'm sure you can give the lineart to a 7 year old with some art training and that kid can make the finished work look decently amazing too. Therefore to improve quickly, invest time and effort in improving the design is the most efficient investment. I think it's most valuable to gather insight from Mogoon and learn the thought process and Mogoon's training history and daily routine to see how those ideas were generated. And I guarantee you, it's not something you can learn and achieve in a year or two.
your channel is unique and amazing; so glad I discovered you! I always advocate for studying from other artists' styles & really getting into the nitty gritty of understanding their workflow, but as someone who's really busy it's difficult for me to sit down and study as much as I like. thus your videos are perfect to watch along and learn as I work, and it really helps that we share a lot of favorite artists too! thanks for all you do.
First time seeing your Lam video made me thought this was a 300k subs channel until I saw the actual sub count and went wtf he is really underrated compared to other channel who actually has 300k subs
Amazing video, you are a very underrated youtuber honestly, glad this video made you blow up. Also can't wait for a composition video, I really" dont understand em.
You are ridiculously good. For doing this video, gathering the info and respect your audience to cut all the bs and needless information. Every second of your video is enjoyable. Plz keep on doing this. This IS the legit content.
I am very grateful for the Chinese subtitles, I have subscribed to this channel for a long time, and now I can finally understand this video. Anyway, you have given me some inspiration and I love this video very much!
going from watching your ina stream art tutorial to watching this video, it's incredible to see your improvement over only a few months time. It's honestly inspiring. Love to see it!
Just got back to digital painting :V i've done being a designer for 8 years so back to square one as artist. I'm super grateful and extremely happy to see your video, all of this break-down technique help me coming back to my sense of drawing. Keep making more videos please cause my barely lit passion for drawing is depending on you ^^. Amazing~
I am also following his class and pretty much overwhelmed by it despite only watch 2chapter/day. You analytic video is really nice to get some insight especially how he layering his stuff, thanks!
I swear, you are so underrated. Every time I watch one of your videos, I'm motivated to keep growing and learning. You inspire me to think that, with enough work and learning, everything is possible. Thank you for being an inspiration to me❤️

I've recently wanted to try copying mogoon's style but I didnt understand his coloring technique since I only watched a few of his streams during the 100 day art challenge so this video is a GODSEND!
yeahhh! perfect timing 😎
@@tppoart dude you're a legend HAHAHA ngl I'm so confused right know you show me a solution
i love how he said about the importance of the shadows and then leaves the face flat. But i love the composition, definitely worth studying.
Tracing someone's work is a proven practice for every aspiring artist out there, I have been teaching on Arts university for 8 years and taught this process to my students. *Just don't claim it as your own work.*
I'll be honest here, no matter how hard you focus when drawing for improvement. It'll always will take a very, very long time. And I mean years due to understanding your failures and willing to improve upon them on your next creation (This goes for any work process not just drawings)
To achieve a higher standard such as these artists isn't just years because time is only dependant on what you spend it on so what you must always do is simple; just keep drawing.
Draw thousands upon thousands of sketches, anatomy, base shapes, perspectives, objects, backgrounds, lighting, shading, colouring, line art. EVERYTHING. if you truly want to become better.
It is very helpful to copy other artworks from artists and from random images everywhere on the internet no matter what to get a great sense of things; but you got to observe as to how it works. Like body positioning, lighting directions, folds of clothing everything.
Because if you dare try to draw from your imagination you will most certainly not understand as to what you are doing and as to that problem is simple. You weren't learning, you were over complicating things, you weren't admitting your errors to yourself.
Big artists like these all had to go through the hard way because there is no shortcuts, it's always extreme perseverance and constant dedication. YOU CAN'T create a style if you don't know the basics and haven't practice enough to understand how certain things work.
So in conclusion, time is a vital concept with drawing. But that only depends if you are learning from it and do it constant enough so it can permanently stay inside your brain for the long term process in life (oh yeah good tip is always use basic shapes first with sketching no matter how annoying it can be because that oval shape will help ya with proportions and perspectives so much with bodies and heads or anything) XD
On artists who upload almost daily, I had figured from my years of talking with many artist in professional and hard fandom is
1. Working on multiple work at Once
2. Painting then Line Works/Border Effect
3. Pre-made Pose/Compositions (Folder full of Rejected Poses/WIPs from sketches and doodles)
4. Frankenstein old artworks to create new composition and reference (same as above)
5. Re-uploading past works
Overall, having reference and strong understanding what you're looking at and what you want seems to be key. Still a lot of work, must of been a long journey.
Thanks for sharing and amazing breakdown.
Thanks for the amazing insights!
For me, I've always been heavily stuck on the colouring process. I overthink it and then lose direction, so my works are often left half-finished or barely started. Your videos clarified my brain clutter and they are truly a joy to just watch. Thank you so much for your dedication!
it's fascinating how your own style still shows in the copy, even after all that extensive research. Your piece looked more smooth and blended, while Mogoon's is more block-textured coloring and less lineart.
This is still an amazing study nonetheless; you put in a lot of effort and it really shows. Looking forward to more of these in the future!
Studying other artists by copying their work 1:1 is not something content creators wanted to do these days because usually this is just personal grinding as an artist. This is the part where it is sooooo boriiingggg yet you made it educational. Love your contents..
Edit: Your video studies are so interesting and refreshing. In world where the art field is so competitive, and speed paint videos out there that add to the pressure of unrealistic art goals, your videos are a nice reminder that people have different ways of painting that we can learn and study from.
Yes! Preparation is so key! Thumbnailing, rough sketches and coloring can definitely save you time. I can't tell you how many hours I've wasted trying to figure out how lighting and shadows work, how the background's gonna look etc.
It was after a few months or weeks when the pandemic hit, just found out this guy jeonghee and his 100 day challenge and it just surprised me how he created such art in 100 days every day..
What a beautiful pieces
And also so many artist done the chalange.. it was great back then
This channel is god. How could I didn’t discover this channel for sooooo long?! He pays tone of time and effort to analyse different artists work to share with us!!! Love ur videos and I have gone though all of them already :) please keep it up cause the content u are making is the thing I have been searching for soooooo long!!!!!
mogoon / modare is one of my favorite artists, his skills are so balanced (composition, line drawing, painting, color and values). thank you for doing an in-depth analysis of his process! this was very informative yet so engaging to watch with your commentary and the editing.
I couldn't agree more! Mogoon's skills are balanced but on a godly level 😆
i love doing this, especially with animation too to figure out how they did certain special effects. its like a scientific breakdown/pick apart of what makes your favorite peices look the way they do
finally, some artist to follow his art style. I've been stuck for finding artist reference to my own style. This video helps me a lot. Thanks man
You’re one of the most helpful channels I’ve EVER watched.
Man, I hope your channel grows because I enjoy your content so much! The way you explain how the artists do their artwork and put them into practice really shows your dedication. Really hope that you keep pumping videos!
this saved my life omg THANK YOU SM
Please do more like this!! I love the editing and the breaking down of how to do the illustrations with different artists! Please do continue i'd loved to learn more coming from you!! Man you posting vids like this is really a life-saver!! I cant thank you enough!
Thank you! Will do! 😊
I love learning about different techniques to incorporate in my art!
Even though I’ve gotten to a part of very, veryyyy, slow progression (for me this symbolizes that I have grown to a place where I have grown a very good understanding of a lot of concepts in art and been able to execute them) so learning how I can better tweak and grow my pieces really helps. I know once you get to a place like this you feel stuck and like you aren’t making any progress, but you are!
Honestly I’m happy with this stage because not only do I finally, for once in my life, love my artwork and feel proud of it, I can push my art in different ways and incorporate different style techniques and ways of doing things so make my process faster and more enjoyable.
I still have a lot to learn, because when do you not, and I can’t wait to further my art. Even if the process is slower than it’s been my whole life lol.
Thank you for this super helpful breakdown! Totally gonna incorporate some of the interesting techniques in my own work and see how I like it!
I also purchased Mogoon's course and OH MY GOSH was it overwhelming! the amount of depth he has, especially on lighting, is insane. I do want to improve and it's fun to see other people taking his course. Honestly, it's incredibly helpful because I've tried to do my own copy studies and I can learn from other people's copy study's and see if I missed anything in my own process. Thank you for everything!! you have a new follower! ^_^
omg the focal point for lighting is so good!
This has be to the best guide I ever have seen, not just on RUclips. The fucking video editing and music choice is just absolutely superb and the breakdowns are super clear and even comes with time stamps. With all that said I challenge you to try to imitate 野生西酱’s art.
imagine an anime where every frame is an art like this, it would be the best anime ever
I really appreciate the effort you put into creating these videos. They're very informative and the production quality is awesome.
Oh my gosh this requires so much confidence. I don’t think I’d ever be ready to let go of layer effects
Not sure if anyone mentioned this, but since you are using and publishing artists paid content: it will be nice if you will actually mention the artists paid links in the end like: "Their social links and everything is in the description below, and please consider supporting them on their subscription service or getting Mogoons coloso cource as there is a lot of things he mentions there."
Because you are essentially making money off their paid content and publishing it online.
Overall a very nice video, a good speed through with the coloso course. I am actually susbcribed to it, but still need to finish it since its so long haha.
He did put the course in the description but yeah, he didnt mention it I think
the way tppo explains and breaks down the artists process is really helpful 😭
You cannot believe how much I've been stalking my notifications tab these past days waiting with bated breath for you to upload tppo!! I cannot stress how much I ADORE your channel 💞 Quality content with blistering insight! Please keep going, your content is my only source of life and jubilation!!!!
Thanks for sticking around! 🙏🙏🙏 I have no plans of stopping anytime soon so rest assured!
Thanks ! now I wanna follow his class but the price tag is too much for me at the moment, so I really appreciate your break down !
Great stuff !
Man, you're so underrated, your explanation of every aspect is great and easy to understand and the presentation is 10/10
This is extremely helpful, as a digital artist I tend to fall into the trap of the artwork needing to be "perfect", which will lead me into spending days or even 1-2 weeks on 1 illustration, leading to quick burnouts. I feel like this artist really perfected consistency without sacrificing time, energy, mental health, and is overall burnout free.
I think I should try this technique, and see if I'm able to make 20 drawing in 20 days without burning myself out
This guy's channel is the definition of quality over quantity. Ever video he puts out is an absolute banger. Love this guy.
the skill level to just copy it brooo I sub
You never fail to create something so stylistically pleasing and immensely informative. Thank u tppo once again 🙌🙌
No problem! Thanks for watching!
I WAS STUDYING MOGOON BUT COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HIS PROCESS THANK YOUUUU
This content is wonderful
thank you! ❤️
while the technical aspects of materials, lighting, and layering techniques are important for drawing fast, the reason why Mogoon draws so well is due to his incredible understanding of composition. This includes things like value structure, balance, big/med/small, flow/rhythm, etc. You can learn about all sorts of tools and scientific principles, but at the end of the day we're still creating art, and art follows a visual language that you need to understand and get good at in order for your paintings to look good.
PLS a video on composition would be so helpful! I never have ideas or if I do it's hard to make the the composition look good TvT
Awesome video by the way!! ❤️ I've learned so much!
omg i didnt expect to find you here !
this is legendary
6:48 as korean... that's... a meme lol, popular in korea, faker(LOL player) took a advertisement, in ad he says "can you please turn off the light" maybe this artist thought this painting should be bright? idk lol
So underrated. Recreating his artwork creates a perfect analysis.
i really like seeing your progress and process of the study. keep it up man
I feel like we're perfect opposites of each other. We both work our asses off to become world class illustrators, but with one difference. I spend most of my time improving my drawing skills but neglecting my painting skills, and when I watch your stuff I get the feeling you're doing it the other way around lol. Good job on your channel though. You're doing great. I want to make a RUclips channel too but I can't get my resolve together.
I love how every artist eventually draws miku 😂
Really appreciate the breakdown! Gonna try to apply some of these tips for myself (Texture first seems quite interesting) :) Thanks!
Yeah! Mogoon's texturing process was really interesting, since he emphasized it quite a lot in his online course!
His precision is scary. Truly a master
This channel is wayyy too underrated, such a gem that I accidentally found thanks to the youtube recommendations! Keep the good work up man!
On a serious note, the term "Think like an AI" hit me like a truck because of how AI generated art is with these days,
I'm in a dump and this video really put me back up, I can't thank you much for what you've done for people like me.
Thank you.
i love how you try to recreate mogoon's drawings as a way to actually learn and not just steal !
so much quality information in this one video and its for free
thank you for this tutorial you are amazing!!!!!
Since i dont have the money to purchase classes from my favourite artists, THANK YOU SO MUCH BESTO FRIENDO
😩👏
Please do the composotion video of mogoon!!
what's interesting is that, as an artist, I never ever saw an image or a live of Mogoon. But many many things you've pointed in that one video are stuff I already apply in my own workflow.
The way I layer my flat colours, the way I use texture before going into painting mode, the way I work first on my focus point,... Even the part where I use soft brush to make my base painting before I switch to hard brush for polishing the work.
I'm not saying I'm at the lvl of Mogoon far from it, but I feel strangely happy that I realise I got many of these technique basically from analysing artworks from other artists and rarely speedpainting. I follow Emilyena who has a similar process as well, simply a different style and brush types. But I got these from speedpaint like you and not from actual courses on "how to draw" (I feel like I'm throwing flowers at myself x') ) But that means I've grown as an artist and I'm glad this video showed me that.
You have no idea how long, as a young artist, it takes to realise that all those hours of work are actually working. thanks for this ^^
Ohhh PLEASE break down Hyanna Natsu's (youtube) workflow. her artstyle is simply immaculate.
i feel like the line art workflow of Mogoon definitely deserve further elaboration. There are full of artists that spend countless hours to finish a smooth line art but Mogoon is different. His line art looks sort of wobbly and sketchy but still clean as fuck and such magic contributes to his insane painting speed
as soon as you trace the line art, you already missed the point of learning the secret
you're the only art youtuber i watch a lot nowadays. thanks !
This doesn't feel good. You're essentially purchasing an artist's courses and condensing/summarizing the key points so you can make money from them on youtube. I know imitating artists to learn their techniques is a thing, but the fact that you took someone's paywalled content to profit off of it does not feel good to me at all.
Just found this channel really nice to subscribe thanks for the vid
this is something that im beginning to believe that i might never be able to do but ive always admired good line work and sketches
and this line work is so crisp. Ive always wanted to draw like this 0:59 for reference.
just the perfect placement of the eyes and the mouth and how it looks together just makes it feel very amazing
Amazing art
Your editing and dedication is top notch
It's honestly rare for me to stumble upon an art channel i haven't already heard of, but you my friend are definitely the exception. Super high quality video, keep it up!
Great video! another beast of mass producing drawings is Hungry Clicker. He usually finishes a work after the announcement of a game character within minutes of the announcement. Nobody knows how
hahahhahaha 😆
Not only is this channel great by premise alone, the editing really impresses me. You're unlike any other art channel out there that I know of. Love your vids, and I'm looking forward to the next one
Just wanted to say that your videos of breaking various art styles down gives me motivation to draw more!
Bro you don’t know how useful this is to me, as an advanced artist. All I could find on RUclips was “beginner level” drawing stuff. Thanks for the amazing content and the insane dedication
15 hours of Content boiled down to a 11:41 minute video as a Summary and work flow is Beyond what I can ever do
Today I found you and your videos have helped me understand art a little bit more the effort you put into each video or rather the time is something to admire for me since I can't exactly do that thank you for your videos!
I think it's mostly the composition and design of the overall artwork that contribute the most to its overall success. Mogoon drew 1 illustration a day with a hit on each piece because Mogoon has the knowledge and experience to come up with appealing designs plus Mogoon was using iconic figures (successful character designed check). The most valuable things to copy is the design ideas. I'm sure you can give the lineart to a 7 year old with some art training and that kid can make the finished work look decently amazing too. Therefore to improve quickly, invest time and effort in improving the design is the most efficient investment. I think it's most valuable to gather insight from Mogoon and learn the thought process and Mogoon's training history and daily routine to see how those ideas were generated. And I guarantee you, it's not something you can learn and achieve in a year or two.
I'm happy to see tht ur vids are finally getting the views it deserves. Your videos are literally god tier
I just think your channel is what everyone need.
your channel is unique and amazing; so glad I discovered you! I always advocate for studying from other artists' styles & really getting into the nitty gritty of understanding their workflow, but as someone who's really busy it's difficult for me to sit down and study as much as I like. thus your videos are perfect to watch along and learn as I work, and it really helps that we share a lot of favorite artists too! thanks for all you do.
First time seeing your Lam video made me thought this was a 300k subs channel until I saw the actual sub count and went wtf he is really underrated compared to other channel who actually has 300k subs
THANK YOU so much for the break down. im going to watch THIS video about 10 thousand time to understand any of this.
Amazing video, you are a very underrated youtuber honestly, glad this video made you blow up. Also can't wait for a composition video, I really" dont understand em.
This is amazing. Would love to see a video on banpai akira or zun styles
I've spent the last few days watching through some of these and I have learned a lot from them. You're a legend thank you very much
You are ridiculously good. For doing this video, gathering the info and respect your audience to cut all the bs and needless information. Every second of your video is enjoyable. Plz keep on doing this. This IS the legit content.
more from mogoon please. this guy needs to get more analyze videos. he is too damn amazing
I love this channel, feeds my love/admiration of artists perfectly
Mogoon's style is very straightforward. I like it
I am very grateful for the Chinese subtitles, I have subscribed to this channel for a long time, and now I can finally understand this video.
Anyway, you have given me some inspiration and I love this video very much!
going from watching your ina stream art tutorial to watching this video, it's incredible to see your improvement over only a few months time. It's honestly inspiring. Love to see it!
I only realized 모군 was Korean when his color wheel popped up. Happily surprised though! Solid workflow.
god the way you study artists style is admirable
Just got back to digital painting :V i've done being a designer for 8 years so back to square one as artist. I'm super grateful and extremely happy to see your video, all of this break-down technique help me coming back to my sense of drawing. Keep making more videos please cause my barely lit passion for drawing is depending on you ^^. Amazing~
Man ur editing techniques to explain things is killer ur awesome pls keep going making this variable content really appreciate your work ❤❤
I am also following his class and pretty much overwhelmed by it despite only watch 2chapter/day. You analytic video is really nice to get some insight especially how he layering his stuff, thanks!
Yeahhhh there's sooo much information in just one chapter it's insane! 😵
I swear, you are so underrated. Every time I watch one of your videos, I'm motivated to keep growing and learning. You inspire me to think that, with enough work and learning, everything is possible. Thank you for being an inspiration to me❤️
YOU ARE SO HELPFUL FOR ART STUDIES OMG PLEASE THANK YOU SO MUCH.
