Why do I feel like I need to forget everything I ever learned about drawing and just do these big shapes and then carve out the details? I feel like this is why none of my features line up or are proportionate
In my experience art class at school doesn’t even actually teach kids how to draw or anything, they just do a bunch of random shit but don’t get taught the basics Sad times
Some of these tik tokers are saying things so confidently that my brain automatically assumes they’re correct since it sounds like they know what they’re talking about. At least I have Ethan to fact check this stuff lol.
@@user-qf4bu6pk2y when you look at a city you don't see all the buildings in high detail. Like when you look at someone unless your specifically focusing on the teeth you don't see the individual teeth. The white blends into one shape mostly. I draw things that are important to what I want to convey in detail and everything else in less and less detail as I care less and less about it and they are engulfed in shadow and light. But given the shapes, values and colors you can assume what is there. You don't draw every hair strand, cause you don't see every hair strand when your looking at someone unless your looking specifically at it.
My problem with TikTok art comes to the hyper realistic drawings. Now before I say anything, most of those drawings shown are fantastic. The artists clearly spend a lot of time and work on them and the colors and texture are amazing. But one concern is that those artists sometimes lack the foundation or “cake.” Like they put all of their focus and time on the colors and texture. But that shouldn’t be the main focus. The main focus should be the drawing BEFORE the colors. I’ve seen those artists sometimes screw up faces, tutorials tell you to draw what you see instead of drawing the basic shapes you can see.
@@pogz1 I agree with the Person above But Ill give You critique and You may not like what I will be saying so Im giving you a head's up Critique: Im also an Artist And have been through the phase "It seems its not Improving" And when I look at your work I Could see why. First Of all It looks like the things your learning are all Out of Place Like I could See in Your coloring You use a sort of Black Color(Dark color)Which Is Really wrong. Because it doesnt Suite the skin tone And then The Skin tone is a bit Yellow... And If I may assume Where you going for orchid kind of color? If so Please Learn On how Colors should mix And Ummm I will just suggest you learn from the very start. Yes it will take a while BUT it will be Much Faster If You take it Lesson by Lesson Trust me On this... I made a Mistake On Just taking somethings But not seriously Learning it Throughly Like Anatomy But It was worth it. So Please Go by these first: Anatomy: Skeleton - Muscles - Product(Overall) Skeletal Guides Blocking (Using Big and Maybe complex Shapes) Then Add the details Later Color Wheel: Values (Black and white) And Colors ( Contrast, Hue ,Etc) Tip: In a Art work Its much more Beautiful if You use a Limited Pallete Or a Color That will suite The other colors (Color wheel Lesson) Lineart: ⚠️Dont Do Sketchy Lines⚠️ Try to do short and Long lines with one stroke And I could see you just Draw The final shape of the Hair But You didnt Add details The Hair Grows from the roots in our scalp and flows out and the Hairstyle will differ From where the "Point" will be(Middle Part, Side part, Etc.) Explanation: Please Learn Human anatomy and Not from Artist Tutorials where its in "Anime-Style" "Semi-Realistic" Just search Up Anatomy Drawing and start from there. But it will be Stressful Trust me Ive been there but In the end Its The Thing that I need It will go By detail on how bone Affects the Muscle and Movement And The overall Product And Anatomy Is a long run Learning Like Anatomy of the eyes may take you up to 2 Hours to learn and Understand And Then Putting what you just learned to Practice. So When You watch or Read tutorials Try Taking in A Lot of Information About a Particular thing Like the eyes Because Human Bodies are more complicated Like how the eyes react to like and how they will behave So Understand The tutorial first before Actually Drawing And Putting it to practice(It will take several tries) And Then The next day Try to Putting In practice again On what you learned yesterday. Thats how you will improve! And The Reason Why you should Learn from the real thing is Because That all Styles Come from the Real thing and was just "Adjusted"/ "Personalized" For the style.
@@pogz1 And The Way you color Is a Bit "wrong" All Of Your coloring are Mix into Each other when There should be Hard and soft shadows Hard and soft Shadows Doesnt only apply to skintone But In other stuff as well So I will tell you this Even Professional Artist will Start to learn again from the basics to improve And The reason Why Your art Is out of Proportional is Because you dont have The Basics Yet.

For the teeth advice: this advice works great in general 👍 But if you draw a very horrific illustration with a super creepy character, drawing all the teeth can strengthen the unsettling aspect of the piece
I'm sure his advice is great but I just don't understand it. What's the favored triangle?? He just says I call it this and I use it for this but never what it is in the first place I'm so lost please help
@@marenwithanm7091 I think it may just be that we learn differently? I find him very engaging and firm, but goofy in the way you know he doesn’t mean it negatively? Other art channels tend to be rather soft and hard to follow because I don’t find them engaging. With Ethan it’s like “ I’m doing this and I expect you to follow along and make your own conclusions with it because only a baby couldn’t do this” so I would suggest maybe doing what he does as he does it? It’s definitely hard at first to do art studies, but they can be super helpful and get easier as you go! I honestly don’t know what to say that he hasn’t already said lol
@@boxedskull9051 lol yeah we certainly do have different learning styles bc I have no idea what he's talking about ever. I'm the baby I can't do it ajaksjkdf. But yeah I'll keep trying, thanks. Art studies have never been my strong suit but I'll sure do my best at them!
I started watching Ethan recently and my art is already getting better because of it. In times of artistic mediocrity, a hallucinated knife wielding mastermind comes to me and yells about triangles with a favored side. My lines? Colored. My poses? Referenced. My shapes? Bountiful.
STOP using circles/spheres Geometrically, circular structures are meant to be perfect- something you or i (organic shapes) are not. Using straights connected with rounded edges (a la the Magical Favored Sided Triangle) allows for a much more organic shape design that keeps in mind structure, gesture, and form
A great tip I got from my figure drawing instructor over the summer: "A straight line can only be wrong or right." With curved lines, you may get it partially accurate and partially wrong and that is MUCH much more difficult to analyze and fix than a straight line.
I'm 35y old, been drawing all my life. I knew a lot of these but I also DIDN'T know a lot of these tips. Thank you so much! As a person with ADHD and crippling depression every little thing that makes my creativity easier is fucking BOMB. Glad I stumbled upon a random video of yours!
I feel like over-defining teeth is a good way to make a character look aggressive or intimidating. It's natural for us to be offput by highly defined teeth, since we're still technically animals the baring of teeth is a physical way to show that someone is either ready to fight, or that they are ready to eat. Both of those aspects can be extremely disturbing, especially when you are at the recieving end of such an expression. For example, in Naruto, any time they made Gaara look extra insane they reaaaally defined his teeth. It gave the desired effect; to disturb the audience. Defined teeth are good for legitimate creep factor, bad for casual scenarios.
Earlier someone said something that basically made me feel really terrible and not motivated to do anything. After watching two videos (including this one), I already feel more motivated than I have in weeks. Knife-man makes pain go away.
not gonna lie, that last part where he talk about how human body made out of straight lines is actually blow my mind a bit. It really helps me be more consistent with my drawing. thanks bro.
Your channel is literally a godsend, you’ve given so much advice I’ve literally never heard before, or at least not in such a simple form. You break things down in ways anyone can understand and apply to their art, regardless of skill or experience. I’ve improved just from applying even the most basic things you’ve taught. thankyou for being such a blessing to this community and helping so many of us.
dude your persona or video style or whatever is so fucking good. I always struggle to focus on tutorial videos, they always feel like they drag, they go through too slow or have a monotonous voice, but the way you break it up with little gags and insults snaps me back in and holds my attention so well. your skills are epic and the tips are super handy of course too but just wanted to compliment you on the way you've put everything together since it really sets you apart!
TIKTOK art is so chaotic lmaooo i barely know how to draw but like the "tutorials" and "advice" that I see on that app are more often than not absolutely garbage. But I appreciate the content creation
So what I'm seeing is... There are many pathways up the mountain. I found the part about facial proportions to be magical. I've never taken a human form class and this single lesson will impact my sketching forever. Thanks!
I know the purpose of the video is the importance of using general shapes and structure, but I feel like the Thigh Tutorial has brought a brand new perspective on how I draw them. Bless this man and itsAJ for these.
Drawing, the science of understanding, deconstructing and reconstructing art. However, it is not an all-powerful art. It is impossible to create something out of nothing. If one wishes to draw something, something of equal value must be referenced. This is the law of equivalent exchange; the basis of all drawing. In accordance to this law, there is a taboo among artists. Drawing ovals is strictly forbidden, for what geometrical shape could an oval possibly represent?!
That's cause this is how /he/ got into art. That's also why his advise is so valuable. It's no textbook BS. It's based on his own experience and observation... Sherlock.. Of Art ?
you're so entertaining???? I didn't even notice the main part of the video has already ended 😅 I learned so much from this and it didn't feel like a chore at all! great video!
what i learned in my art classes was this. the base shape matters the most, if you get that wrong the whole arts gonna be wrong. we did exercises to find shapes of things (eg: dolphin. body is oval, nose and face is a triangle, find are triangles). it makes my life so much easier since now wjen i look at anything it's immediately obvious to me what is what
Crazy intelligent man. What an eye opening video. No wonders those previous "trick" doesn't quite getting me anywhere because I couldn't understand where to pick up the highlight points and my drawing did not get close to the image I was trying to draw. Thank you Ethan for sharing your amazing knowledge to us!

So Please Go by these first:
Anatomy:
Skeleton - Muscles - Product(Overall)
Skeletal Guides
Blocking (Using Big and Maybe complex Shapes)
Then Add the details Later
Color Wheel:
Values (Black and white)
And Colors ( Contrast, Hue ,Etc)
Tip: In a Art work Its much more Beautiful if You use a Limited Pallete
Or a Color That will suite The other colors (Color wheel Lesson)
Lineart:
⚠️Dont Do Sketchy Lines⚠️
Try to do short and Long lines with one stroke
And I could see you just Draw The final shape of the Hair But You didnt Add details
The Hair Grows from the roots in our scalp and flows out and the Hairstyle will differ From where the "Point" will be(Middle Part, Side part, Etc.)
Explanation:
Please Learn Human anatomy and Not from Artist Tutorials where its in "Anime-Style" "Semi-Realistic" Just search Up Anatomy Drawing and start from there. But it will be Stressful Trust me Ive been there but In the end Its The Thing that I need
It will go By detail on how bone Affects the Muscle and Movement And The overall Product

I feel like over-defining teeth is a good way to make a character look aggressive or intimidating. It's natural for us to be offput by highly defined teeth, since we're still technically animals the baring of teeth is a physical way to show that someone is either ready to fight, or that they are ready to eat. Both of those aspects can be extremely disturbing, especially when you are at the recieving end of such an expression.
For example, in Naruto, any time they made Gaara look extra insane they reaaaally defined his teeth. It gave the desired effect; to disturb the audience.

what i learned in my art classes was this. the base shape matters the most, if you get that wrong the whole arts gonna be wrong. we did exercises to find shapes of things (eg: dolphin. body is oval, nose and face is a triangle, find are triangles). it makes my life so much easier since now wjen i look at anything it's immediately obvious to me what is what
Ethan become more calm recently, it's good but i kinda miss how sarcastic he is :')
I just love his vids. Every single one has some crazy twist to it. Takes so much talent to do this.
Base it on the straights? But... but why? I could never do that to myself 🥲
Crazy intelligent man. What an eye opening video. No wonders those previous "trick" doesn't quite getting me anywhere because I couldn't understand where to pick up the highlight points and my drawing did not get close to the image I was trying to draw. Thank you Ethan for sharing your amazing knowledge to us!

been enjoying the storyboard/animation videos, but was definitely delighted to have another drawing-focused vid! my aspiring comic artist heart thanks you for the wisdom!!

Hello lovely people :)
Now hide before I start blessing your family and friends :))
Edit: *a dislike before the video even premieres? I guess some people are literally subbed to dislike all of Ethan’s videos...*
I love the internet:)
i think they misclicked
Did he clip his mic to his beard- I like this man.
Has anyone here ever signed up for Ethan's course or paid for the recordings of one? Would love to hear what it's like. Can't find a single review online anywhere.

The mic is great, until the audio peaks. Then there is nothing but sadness and pain
