    That's great, I hope you do more of those.
    I have a basic understanding of anatomy, but I struggle with breaking the elements into primary or secondary forms like you do.
    It's really helpful to have this kind of guidelines to follow.

    I've always struggled with anatomy and proportions, but using this video as a starting point I managed to make a recognizable human skull! I really appreciate how you simplify explanations and focus only on larger structures instead of cramming the crazy names of every little bone like so many do

    I think after watching this, I'm finally closer to actually understanding how one would practice anatomy.
    I've been motivated quite a few times to learn anatomy and tried reading and watching material about it, but I never understood how I was supposed to start learning it.
    I'm think I'm a bit closer to understanding.

    Great perspective tutorial. It's important to take what you leanred and watch other videos about it too and just feel the dopamine of guessing what they're gonna say because you learned it from other videos. Personally that's what helps solidify it within my own mind.

    Just as a side note, place your affiliate link for the tablet in your description because i've spend like 20min trying to figure out what brand tablet you're using so i can get one.

    Would you recommend fully mastering each stage before moving onto the next, or go through stages one through four, several times, until you master those before moving onto stage five?
    Another question is: How do you flatten parts out so easily?

    • @thivolan3d
      @thivolan3d 7 месяцев назад

      Hey there SoulSphere!
      So learning anything is a cumulative process; trying to master each stage would probably drive you insane so id recommend working and completing each stage (not mastering it) then moving on to something else like composition (for example) then anatomy, then shading etc etc. when you come back to the skull youll realise youre not so great at expressions (again, for example) so youll then try and complete that stage and learn something new.
      Trying to learn everything at once is like trying to carry all your luggage through an airport by hand, it might work but youll probably break your back trying and drop and lose things on the way... So take it one step at a time and before you know it youll have reached youre destination with all your faculties in order.
      As for flattening i dont really use blender to sculpt so i cant help you there... but if you use zbrush theres the hpolish and trim smooth brushes
      PS
      you should come back to each stage when you feel the need to; its something all artists do; you cant master anything in a few weeks, its usually a looooong long time for mastery...

    Its not Critic or something. Its just Anatomy is just very difficult let alone drawing it.
    Awesome explanation by the way.
    If i may give critic A bit loud Transition Glitch sound effect.
