- Опубликовано: 27 май 2024
- For Lightbox 2020 this year Stan and Marshall streamed their first live Q&A episode! Rather than release the full version that had awkward pauses and tech issues it’s been edited down and remastered. Now you’ll get a clean experience as they answer a variety of personal and art related questions. Some of what you’ll hear are answers to how the podcast got started, brainstorming techniques for artists, perspective vs form, bad habits for digital drawing, and the story behind our thumbnails.

If we do another live Q&A session in the future what are some questions you’d like us to answer that didn’t get asked in this episode?
How can a beginners start to
do you draw a human figure from all angles?
First of all, I don't remember who did I say "no" on that Stream, but it wasn't Marshall, I actually grateful to Marshall for his advice. Second of all, I would like to know if you are going to make episode on "How to study story" and "How to study lighting and color"?
Thanks for reuploading this! So: Everyone says "learn the fundamentals first", those being anatomy, perspective, color, composition, (lighting), etc. So what comes afterwards? Isn't that the entirety of the technical part of art? What would you say are non-fundamentals? Thank you!
Also, can you still get jobs when you are limited to the amount of time you can work at day due to injury or you'll just have to work on your own thing?
What are the fundamentals of visual storytelling?
I was like "NOOOO I MISSED IT" But i remember this was lightbox
Oh shit, thank you for telling me 😂 I was thinking the same thing lol
Lol same here
you're a lightbox
@@boblob3509 no you are
"If there's a subscription I'm out" (~1:50:00)
The most relatable words Marshall has ever said, as if out of my own mouth ;)
Starting the heart parade and making marshall laugh so wholesomely was the happiest ive been in a while. I'm glad you kept all the hearts in at the end
nobody: ..
marshall: "robert beverly hale"
SuperPK and he is right! After he recommended the book I read it and tried to highlight the important stuff but I soon realized that every line in that book would need to be highlighted, same thing can be said for Harold speed books
I want to thank the Draftsman Podcast. You guys always answer all the questions I’m constantly asking myself, and help me in pushing myself to keep putting the work in. I just received my first follow on social media from a living master, Steve Huston himself, that’s a huge deal for me and I couldn’t have done it without The Draftsman Podcast helping me with work ethic, artist psychology, and motivation along the way.
Delbert Winters Steve Huston replied to my Dm on Instagram yesterday and I'm still recovering from the heart attack it gave me, if he actually followed me I would have died
@@tropicalbreeze6926 yeah I’m right there with you, it’s like if you actually got to meet Jesus and he gives you personal words of wisdom, still having a panic attack at the thought that he’s now seeing my work
"issues with the camera" = Marshall forgot to turn the camera on ;)
Really enjoying Draftsmen. Marshall you are rocking that Gandolf vibe!
I would like to see more episodes on the subject of the old masters since it is such an important topic, but I love all of your content!
REAL black coffee. I love y’all, Can’t wait till y’all do another live so I can catch it in real time.
Really appreciate this upload and the timestamps! Thanks for all the advice gentlemen.
Thank you for all the advices both of you give us!
Thank you for this podcast ! It's wonderful to listen to all this while studying art in the morning!
3 months later and I still treasure both your answers. Thank you again!!💜💜
This was great. Thanks!
Please talk about motivational tips for older people that are not making a living in the art industry. We’re still working at our perspective trades to pay the bills, but are seriously thinking of art close to retirement or at retirement. I’ve been drawing since I’m 6 years old but felt art would never allow me the life I wanted for my family financially. I’m 60 years old now and plan on retiring around 67. I’ve been enrolled in the Tom Richmond Caricatures workshop that’s been on hold for almost a year due to the pandemic. I have many ideas to make some money using art but find it hard to get motivated after 12-16 hour work days. Please discuss this issue on your next Q&A DRAFTSMAN video/podcast!
Did you get this worked out? I hope it’s going well
I would love hearing you talk about subsurface scattering, chroma, and mid tones, esp. translucent surfaces from skin to rainy rocks. I'm loving your podcasts and am almost caught up binging on them during my daily hike.
Great podcast! I'd like to see more book reviews
more critiques, basic drawing how to's, keeping the humor & personality of both of you guys
Didn't I see this already?
Very useful episode. 👍
thank you for point people in a direction to your courses
Thank you for asking what people would be interested in seeing/hearing in future podcasts.
I would like the two of you in dialogue with Pete Beard who has a channel on RUclips. He does short introductions of illustrators from around the world from the time illustration began - mostly the unsung heroes of illustration - male and female. He relates their work to what was/is going on in and around the artists' lives.
I think he would be a good choice because you both are illustrators in some way and many of your viewers/listeners/students are now or heading into illustration and I think dialogue with Pete would be added info for illustrative artists - and others. :)
I know you are creating for what you want to say and not for what people request but would you please indicate that you will consider my suggestion? I think this is the third time I suggested this. I don't want to be a pest so please let me know so I don't mention it again.
Otherwise, I will definitely mention it again because I feel strongly about this. :)
Stan stop bullying Marshall!!! :D
Really great! i saw this one partially during lightbox! Thanks for uploadin it! (P.s. I hope you are recycling that cup Proko! >:C)
Marshal is so adorable
YES!
Loving Marshall's santa beard.
Yay!! Hi guys!
Yayyy, there is John.
Called out by Marshall about Line quality! It's so difficult for me. Linework is hard. I tattooed for 3 1/2 years and the guy I trained under felt like me using digital art held me back because of muscle memory and I was so used to creating digital art and relying on it and stabilization settings that my traditional linework really suffered.
Please, record the story course and offer it as an online class for anyone to purchase anytime, it would help a lot! I really wanna learn from Marshall!
Yay the first question was by me!
Lost me when Stanley argued for the subscription model. The model is built to have a guaranteed renewing income. When I buy an app I want to option to skip over certain versions and should the developers stop creating new and useful features, I should not be forced into continuing to support them. The subscription model is a hostage model to take away your consumer rights.
Not to mention that there are no guarantees for how long a online service will last. I'd want to be able to look through the notes I make today in ten or twenty years from now. Who's to say they'll still be around by then? Even assuming you could export them as plain text and save it locally they'd lack the structure that made them useful.
@@kullenberg Good point. I have been caught on that in the past. Lost a huge amount of notes that is now nothing more than useless pile of encrypted data.
Yay! I thought there wasn't one today. I was mildly concerned...hehehe. 🤤
I would like for Marshall to review more books that are behind him
I agree with Marshall, these apps are accumulating costs and nothing extra compared to a notebook or single paper, also usually none of them reminds you to do the tasks on that. The reminder on phone does that for free :D
I need that perspective course, need it , like next week 😭😭😭
find other recourses until it comes out
@@saii221 found the old perspective video on Marshall’s website:)
@@whatsleft100 great! happy learning
Roam is just beautified version of Emacs org-mode ROAM functionality. It's free.
Art teachers don't also know what they are talking about by default of being a "teacher". I had a substitute teacher who taught art in high school who once told me not to do certain details I use to add to faces of my characters. I now have a career in drawing characters and have made tens of thousands of dollars from online commissions.
1:54:29 haha I was so happy when he read my comment
LOL- Stan! $15/ month in coffee?? Procreate app you buy ONCE for $9.99 and they give all the update for free! Most of the apps I use, the updates are free. I am with Marshall on this on, sorry. haha
26:57 can someone link me the exact page of this website?
Is that a director's cut of previous video?
Fail at originality or succeed at imitation was a rly good question :) Made me think.But as it is very often u can apply Dark Souls logic.Git Gud.Git Gud at both :)
Stan always has such fancy drinks lol
BEARD MARSHALL! BEARD MARSHALL
one thing i which i think i said even during the q&a....odnt eat when you talk to people stan....
best OTP on the internet
17 months later, the perspective course still isn't done 😑
43:21 perspective THICC
5:04 - 5:55
What up with that sword on the wall?
wait did Marshall say, he added coconut oil to his coffee...?
Yez, I've done it, it's aight 👽
I also drink hot water and loads of people have been completely mind blown about it lol, once I was staying in a hotel and at dinner asked for a hot water with slice of lemon - the waiter looked super concerned for me and said "are you sick?" Haha.
Also it's not even that weird, a lot of these oat/nut milks have some kind of oil in - usually sunflower seed oil. It helps with consistency and prevents curdling.
Great . but strangely, it seems that I already heard all these Q & A before.... ???
same, i was scratching my head about why....maybe we actually saw it live? hahah
Haha 😆 could be !
@@valerieprema9432 thanks, I thought i was crazy or something. So I watched too.
1:06:25
Stan vandraf and marshall prokopenko >>>>>>> Batman and Robin
Holy timestamps, Batman
OMG, the ads. what are they every 5 minutes?
47
Has anyone told you that you look like a young Jack Nicholson?
So many ads...every 3 min an ad break
>millionaire who didn't learn anatomy
I wonder who?
Bob Seinfield
kinda pointless....i much rather watch lessions.
This is a lesson of some sort.....your art probably sucks
@@tropicalbreeze6926 of course i feel that my art sucks, even if some of them get 100 or more likes...but i draw everyday for several hours to improve more. You are either below me or you are already a mini celebrity on insta.
__ I'm saying your art might be bad because you are dismissing this podcast although it has mini lessons that can make your art better,
