- In this video, I show you my method for connecting the legs to the torso. It's pretty basic, but it is enough for me to get the results I need.

I seriously think you have the best drawing tutorials on RUclips
i am 99% sure he does unless there is some underground youtuber that no one knows of

Marques Martinez I agree.
Agree
It is true or most of the detailed tutorials are not free
Sycra: "stick figure person"
Also Sycra: _draws the entire torso_
Me: Wants to know how to connect the legs right
Also me: gets a whole anatomy lesson
I mean you have to know the anatomy in order to connect dem legs
@@halicusnguyen8864 nguyen
now I need a "how to connect the arms to the torso" tutorial haha
Done
Okay so it's been 4 years and I can proudly say I don't need a tutorial on how to connect the arms and torso anymore
@@narelletrapani3716 its kinda funny that a comment can stay for years
@@memoiv right? Lol
@JB I guess ahahhah it's still a hobby and I never took classes, so as good as I can get
Just curious, where does Sycra go to study all the muscle and skeleton anatomy? Or is he just dissecting people in his spare time and I don't know about it?
online tutorials, if you can believe it.
+AustinTheWeird123 On his website he has for recommended reading:
Anatomy-ImagineFX Presents How to Draw and Paint: Anatomy-Atlas of Human Anatomy for the Artist by Stephen Rogers-Complete Guide to Drawing from Life by George Bridgman-Wir zeichnen den Menschen and Der nackte Mensch by Gottfried Bammes-Strength Training Anatomy by Frederic Delavier-Force Dynamic Life Drawing For Animators by Michael D. Mattesi
I'm assuming he's studied that material +Life drawing sessions, online study
An anatomy book? google? chrome even?
+AustinTheWeird123 studying, not like you you hobo pizzashit
I misunderstood the question k?
For some reason, legs/leg connections always came naturally to me in anatomy. But if you could hook a brotha up with an Arm to Torso video, on the other hand...
+Lamsaturn pretty sure he did one not that long ago.
"how to draw the shoulder" and "the male torso", he goes over that a bit
+Lamsaturn Feel like the best way to connect arm is to know the torso/shoulder connection and the back muscle. Then it kinda comes naturally.
fingalificated I'll check it out, thanks!
I'm jealous
I am depressed do you know any toots on how the head connect to the body? The moment the head tilts or goes anywhere the 3/4 view my head goes blank
I first came here just to procrastinate a bit on my homework and ended up learning way more than I expected. Great video, Sycra.
exactly the same here!
Yes, sycra it really is a diamond.
dam dude, the art style is strong with this one.
Don't know why but I like it when you draw on physical paper
Traditional. It's better.
+Carlos Calderon it feels more intimate somehow
+Carlos Calderon i guess it has to do with hand movements..
22:26 I laughed "If I spread my..." cheeks? hue, but still thank you for the lesson really needed help with improving angles.
I saw that flying muffin at 6:25, you sly master
I thought I was the only one! But what does it mean?
Mayde why muffin😂
Yayyy me not only one *YAAAYYY*
bc muffin or muff is another word to call the female genitalia or pubic hair lmao
The way you passed the line with such confidence just made me wanna subscribe, incredible
This is exactly what I needed today while I was working on my sketchbook. Thank you so much
This is one of the best tutorials for hips and legs in general due to how simplified and easy to understand they are. Massive, massive props.
Thank you so much for these tutorials. As a new artist starting later in life these have been invaluable. I truly am so grateful for you. Keep up the great work!
This was incredibly helpful-Thank you, Sycra! Have been struggling with legs for a while, so this will surely come in handy. Also, totally dig the format; Felt, well... more "approachable" this way than the digital walkthroughs.
Cheers!
Just wanted to thank you for these videos. I have searched for ways to understand the basics - from scratch - in many places including books but none explained so clear like you. Now I can draw correctly and I can move to more complex stuff. Huge help!
I love the scientific|analytical analysis of art you give. It makes it so anyone, regardless of style, can watch your video and have your information work for them. Great job; I'd really like to see you break a million!
Well, that's one of the best and most useful (for me at least) drawing tutorial I've see. The right proportion of anatomy to simplification. I love it. I'm going to check what else you have to offer on your channel!
Thank you!
Great tutorial!
I got a lot better at this with just studying anatomy a lot, but it still was really helpful to see your way of doing it!
I also think it's nice to see you doing these tutorials traditionally, because it shows that you don't need expensive equipment to do this stuff, because from my experience beginners often will think an expensive tablet would solve all their problems.
I learned literally everything I know about anatomy from you Sycra! I’ve been watching since 2017 :] You were and still are a huge inspiration for me and so many other artists. Love you man!
Awesome video! This really helped my understanding of the legs. I've been struggeling with this for a while. I would love to see more stuff like this in the future. For the medium, I think it's nice to see some traditional stuff, it didn't detract from the topic at all.
As always very inspiring.
For some unknown reason, your videos work for me. I learn far more from them, than from other artists.
As for traditional vs. digital: It's nice to see how you work with a pen for a change. How you hold it and move it. While digital recordings show the outcome a little more clearly, this way you can far better indicate what you're talking about when you literally point at it with the pen.
Awesome video as always, Sycra.
Also love the traditional videos as well, its a nice change of pace and would love to see more like this. :3
This really is a fantastic tutorial Sycra (as usual), very clear and informative. Thanks for doing what you're doing!
These tutorials are so extremely thorough but at the same time easy to follow. Thanks
Literally did two sketches using that tip about rhythm and my anatomy already looks marginally better. Thanks for the good advice, as always
10+ years of self taught free-handing all of my drawings. 10+ years of looking at people, how they move, what their proportions are, where everything begins and ends. 10+ years of sketches, sketches, and more sketches that resulted in being able to draw pretty decently. But this? Holy crap, this is mind blowing to me! Thank you for all you do!
I LOVE the ones where you draw with a pen - it's super helpful to actually see people draw and the way their hands move, ect. Also helpful to see the paper get messy instead of how digital is where you can just wipe it and do it again.
your tutorials have helped me so much. I've been hunting for such detailed tutorials. thanks to you, I've improved my manga skills a lot. thank you so much. ^^
Straight to the point! Thank you for this my man. After all the gesture drawing I've beem doing the last few months, this was a great addition to the puzzle for me. Subscribed!
This is just what I needed! I was practicing figure drawing and connecting these two was the hardest part for me. Thanks buddy.
I skipped to a random place and heard here is the But hole and I can't stop laughing
You are by far the best drawing teacher on RUclips and I have honestly been looking.
I'd long time that i don't watch your videos sycra but watching this video remind me that you're the only one artist who explain every detail of the lesson that you teaches.
I already saw a lot of drawing tutorials in differents languages and your is by far the best
OH MY GOD YOU ARE A LIFE SAVERRR
Literally I always raged at legs because I could draw the leg itself fine, and the torso itself fine, but when i try to connect them it ALWAYS looked SO FAKE
THANK YOU SYCRA
I've been banging my head against my tablet for the past month and a half trying to find a good tutorial; thank you Sycra, wish I came across this sooner.
I love your traditional style of tutorials. I actually prefer them over the Digital just because I have really start to get into traditional. Line weight and arm movement is super important and it helps me a shit ton when I see my favorite artists actually draw with thier arm, instead of just a digital cursor.
I have always had a problem with leg connection and this helped loads. And by the way thank you tons for using a notebook format because as much as I like the digital, I personally took more in from the physical drawing, since I do more of that stuff. Thank you!
I Found My New Favorite Drawing Tutorial Channel... Not Only Is The Method Simple To Follow, The Anatomical Descriptions Are Spot On!!
I like the way you are explaining it. Mostly i see step by step tutorials, helped me a lot!
Tutorials using more traditional methods feels more natural. I love watching your hands move and seeing how you hold your instrument.
Also +1 for sketching in pen. I love using pen to sketch.
I have been drawing on and off for 30 years and I just learned SO much from this video! THANK YOU SO FREAKING MUCH!
I just love your tutorials. Thanks to them my skill increase very fast. You have real teaching talent.
Sycra, you just made my day!!
Thank you.
I always had trouble connecting these two!!.
Very pleasing to look at indeed, Sycra.
I'd just like to say I found this video to be *extremely* helpful, because you explained how skeletal and muscle structure affect the total shape of the legs, and body. Most artist don't do that. And to that, I thank you so very much.
As for the type of media you used, I prefer the traditional style over digital, but I know it can be more efficient to use digital.
With all that said, this was one of the best tutorial type videos I've seen.
This was very appreciated! :)
(hopes Sycra releases further videos in traditional style :D)
I like this version. It showed me how the pen should be like to get the stroke correctly and it feels a bit more of a lesson which is awesome!
THIS IS INCREDIBLE. Wow. I did not think I could get this level of instruction off the internet, this was fantastic, thanks for this content!
this helps me immensely! thank you! i love your explanation of the rhythem of the leg! thats one element that i really love and wasnt sure how to get it
The video is great!
And what a coincidence! I was having trouble last night attaching legs, and today after I got on youtube, I get this video as recommendation.
Thank you for keeping this content up for free....so brilliant and so helpful!!!
Sycra, you are a phenomenal artist and teacher. Thank you.
Thanks for great tutorial. Very useful. That is the place that was tough for me. The another is muscles on the scapula and how they connect to the arm.
love your vids. I've taken a few art classes and I learn more from your videos than I do from them.
Really enjoy your videos Sycra, super helpful for a novice artist. Figured I couldn't keep watching without dropping a thank you ^_^
You always seem to come out with the tutorial I need most right when I need it.
I was struggling with this for some time now. Awesome tutorial, I'm going to try it tonight!
I was struggling with this yesterday and this video helped me a lot, thank you 😊
sycra thank you 2 days of of this over and over big help realy man your a boss 😀👍
When you realize you've been drawing "sausage legs" your whole life... I guess I start drawing them the right way. Thanks, sycra, even though that wasn't the main point of the video.
Sycra, your style has its own weird proportions, but it just pleases me somehow! You should totally make a super kickass action comic/manga
your videos are always so soothing. I love when they appear in my sub box no matter what the title or topic :)
and I actually liked this traditional video ... but I don't really care (though seeing your hand is more personal ;))
Man, t his is fascinating stuff. I need to watch more of your vids on tutorials and stuff! Damn! it all makes so much sense with an instructor figure!
a was struggling so hard finding a tutorial for this particular area of the body until I saw your video. Thank you so much for sharing because I couldn't figure this out just by buying anatomy books.
wow! this was really helpful! before I just drew circles and hoped for the best but now I actually understand how and why legs act and look thanks so much!!!!!!
I have been waiting eons for this tutorial. Thank you so much.
Excellent advice! Explained the anatomy behind which really helps
This is excellent. Probably the best one I have heard, even better than when I was in medical school. Like this method better than the computer. Can understand this better. Thank you Mary Groda-Lewis
I absolutely love when you're going traditional! It'd be great if you could make some painting too, although your pen sketches are super cool.
I like the traditional media tutorial a lot. don't be afraid to experiment with filming it more often 😊
I love your videos.. they are so helpful to me. Thank you so much for taking the time to make these.
I like that you make a tutorial on traditional media. I would like to see more of that.
I myself draw mostly with pen/pensil on paper and find it sometime hard to apply your techniques.
I kind of prefer the traditional videos just because it's the way I'm doing things now. Also I'm stuck at anatomy for the moment, so this tutorial is very welcome. Thank you, Sycra!
constantly coming back to see how to connect the torso and the legs. genuinely more help than some of my teachers.
I've been struggling with this for a while, thanks a lot!
holy jeez peanuts in a bag of grated corn!!!!! this explained everything to me!!! sycra you are a god!!! I couldn't get it down for the life of me! Thank you thank you thank you!!!!
Wow, I've been struggling with this for sometime, so I'm thankful for this video ..... how the heck did you figure this out Sycra? I've never seen the legs explained like this before. I really think you have a talent for breaking things down and figuring out how to reconstruct them. I would be very interested in your process when it comes to how you go about figuring these things out into their simplest forms. Hope this comment makes sense.
This was one of the most helpful videos ever
I have struggled with how to attach the legs for a long while and this was simply invaluable. To bad I didnt stumble upon this video sooner
I was studying leg anatomy today, and damn, this video makes everything so understadable...
i think this video solved a few of my problems i have with drawing legs ( i draw sausages )
Sausages are cool too c:
Same lol
Very informative video. Would love to see more like this.
this was actually a really helpful video, Thank you!!!
Amazing tutorial. Nicely explained
Great videoSycra! Helped a lot.
Thanks man!!
This was so helpful
by the way, big fan, your art is great :)
You are making all of thiese stuff a lot easier for me :) thank You :)
Nicley made! Really like the "traditional" way of creating a tutorial! I'd personally prefer those non-digital tutorials.. They kinda add an more "realistic" touch to the entire procress.
Have a nice day!
your tutorials are amazing
Thanks, Sycra. I'm probably the worst artist in my class now, but thanks your videos i'm slowly getting better.
Please keep doing god's work!
Great video as always, Sycra. It helped a lot with something I'm currently struggling with.
Im personally fine with you working in traditional. I suppose the only issue I can see with it is that sometimes the hand is in front of certain areas of the page with a non-digital display of your instructions. A minor inconvenience at times but do whichever you prefer. .
Hi Sycra!
Quite interesting studies! Congrats! Keep doing paper sketches vids!
Have a good one!
That was so helpful! Thank you, Sycra!
I love watching your tutorials. Tjey are fascinating. I used to paint and draw and now that I have retired I hope to go back to that. I've noticed some really interesting photos of David Tennant, a very tall lanky UK actor. Some photographers have shot him from top down with some very interesting perspective results. A lot of forshortening of a really tall body. Mizgenomer on TUMBLER seems to have been on set in the background taking a lot of photos. They might be some of her shots. Anyhow, my point is that you produce wonderful tutorials about perspective and I've thought of trying to draw from those photos. You might find them interesting too as you see the entire person from head to feet. Very challenging perspective.
This is gold. You're teaching is so good. Thank you so much O_O
I finally understood how it works. a thousand thanks
This is great! Thank you Sycra!
This video has been way more informative than I expected it to be
