Drawing Layout Using the Transfer Method
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 окт 2024
- Darrel demonstrates how you can layout your drawing project using a very easy and effective technique called the Transfer Method. You can purchase transfer paper that already has graphite, but he prefers making his own. He will show you how this process can quickly jump start your layout so you can be on your way to drawing.

Excellent beginner tool. Thank you❣️
Great work 👌👌👌
Please upload 1-2 hour video on important things like hyper realistic skin texture, cloths .....etc
I do have many longer tutorials available on my website. There are several portrait collections on skin texture and another one called Touchable Textures that teaches fabric, wood, hair, and more. Check them out here: app.fivepencilmethod.com/shop
@@5PencilMethod Thanks you. I will check it,👍👍👍
Love your channel 👍
I have previously printed the picture out and then used tracing paper to get a copy and then use this transfer process... BUT WHY!!! I am only introducing more errors by effectively tracing it twice...Doh! Why don;t I print another copy and put he graphite onto that one that will be thrown away!!! Such an easy improvement, embarrassed that I needed to be told :)
One point I did like was 'draw on the dark bits' - I have noticed the white of eyes getting smaller... again a rather obvious 'improvement'
I'm going to try this!
Hope you like it!
Muito bom gostei 👍👍👍👍 obrigado
thank you
Which tape was that one?
Genius
I challenge anyone who thinks this is cheating to do this method and draw the photo you are copying from you will soon realize it has got nothing to do with cheating ha.. ive been drawing since a kid.. it takes more than just getting the outline ha.
:) :) :)
Is this even legal? I mean, isnt this cheating or nah??
Well....Personally, I only use this to save time when videoing a quick tutorial and I don't want it to take so long to get going. I never use it on my regular portraits or drawings. I also have students who really struggle with the straightedge and divider technique which I exclusively teach in my online classes. Recently a student said her hands were so small that it was hard to use the straightedge. So....this definitely can be looked at as "cheating" but you are not copying the whole picture, just a few elements to help keep it in proportion.
@@5PencilMethod I think anyone that relies upon this method to do work will have a lot of self doubt issues about whether they truly can or cant draw. I think that answers the question on whether we think its cheating or not. I believe the slight variations of result are what make the drawings unique. I think it should be used as a learning method only but never misrepresented as their own art.
The "masters" of old were using things like the Camera Obscura and other methods to draw and paint. It's just a tool. This will help the beginner get on with the actual shading and completion of the drawing without having to worry too much about sizing and perspective. Learn with it and improve. If Da Vinci had access to cameras, lightboxes, tablets, etc., I know for damn sure he would have used them. There is too much snobbery in the art world, and being told "Oh, no, you can't do that, it's cheating" is beyond ridiculous.
@@goilo888 Yes they are all tools but they shouldnt be used like crutches. People like Da Vinci already had a proper education on fundamentals and an ability to draw/paint. Where as your average joe doesnt. I there is a bit of a misconception between copying an image and being able to draw. One takes years of practices and studying, the other tracing paper :P
Again, it is not cheating if used for learning. People all over the world begin their journey into art by copying drawings or paintings that others made. For an actual "artist" to do that would be cheating. However, no one would ever learn art if people were forbidden from ever practicing using other's paintings. Similarly, people can learn with this method, too. Start out by tracing everything. And slowly decrease what you trace. Eventually, when you draw a lot, you get the hang of it. Also, it is not just that ortists use this to trace "portraits". Sometimes we make smaller original sketches (of different art genres) and then trace them onto the canvas or the paper because we don't want errors. Even the beautiful frescos by the masters were not all directly sketched on walls. Also, if an accomplished artist uses this as a guide, and can draw without reference - that is not a problem. Also, painting/drawing is so much more than getting the proportions right. The contours, the textures, values - there is so much to learn. The problem is, you cannot do anything unless you get the proportions right. So instead of being stuck on the first stepand quitting, maybe they should trace and learn gradually. Learning is boosted by reward which can be the satisfaction of a piece that does not look bad. If this helps people, then so be it. The only thing that bothers people is that while there is no shortcut to other techniques, this one does. And I don't care a lick about it. One can pretty much tell how good an artist is by the thousand other things in the drawing. The objective should be to make the learning process as easy and enjoyable as possible. Once people master things that come easily to them, they can get the psychological benefits of those accomplishments and progress to more difficult things instead of being intimidated by the complexity of the whole process and never picking up an art supply again. If you want to be a snob and practice "no trace ever from the beginning" go ahead. But don't judge others who use it. Every person falls before they learn to walk. You may be falling somewhere else but since that may not have been the very first part, you were able to continue and improve. Don't take away the same opportunity from others.
