Another clever, generous and practical approach to drawing that I look forward to trying. It is so refreshing to have achievable exercises that encourage without promising instant magic . I am still at a loss why people accept practicing sport to improve but prefer to attribute artistic excellence to something gifted rather than worked at ! Thanks for more of your inventiveness.
Thank you! Talent is involved, but definitely over emphasized. I've seen many talented yet lazy students rest on their laurels and get surpassed by those that outwork them.
Thank you Mark. I confirm that since I used your armature process I really improved my skills in figure drawing. I appreciate a lot all the videos you made on this subject.
This is a great demo of how to draw human in such details for the beginners. I have heard a lot of such method but no one explain why we must do so . Until today I watched your video. I also watched some of your other videos which produced recently, some of which has the photos to show when you draw , this really help the students understand much better the techniques you applied. As they can see the result by comparison. I am sure your channel will be more popular with such newly uploaded videos. Well Done ! I am looking forward to your next project! Thank you for your hard work.
This is genuinely such a funny and helpful video. Thank you so much for the walk-through of how tall each section should be individually; I've never seen that explained before, every other reference just says "make it 7-9 heads tall and figure it out from there".
Thank you Eric! There's lot's of information of human proportion out there but I find it's either too complicated or doesn't;t go into enough detail. This system (at least in my opinion) is simple enough to easily remember, and yet detailed enough to get things right.
Hi Marc, very useful vid If that's a vintage nib in your kaweco sport, another good pen to try is the noodler's charlie pen (included free with some large bottles of ink) it fits some vintage #2 nibs very well and has an ebonite feed that can be heat-set. It's a small eyedropper pen with a large ink capacity, so very suitable for field kits!
Thanks! I have vintage nibs in my Boston safety pens and the Creeper, but haven’t considered the Charlie. I’ll have to buy a big bottle of Noodler’s black and get one.

Love your approach to teaching. The examples are easy to follow and practice.
Thanks!
Excellent instruction and examples, again. From your videos, I gain as much or more than from all the books I bought.
Thank you!

Thanks for the confirmation, Linda. I wish I had learned this process when I was art school. The system taught to me didn't use it.

Thank you so much. I'm always trying to make improvements in the way I make my videos, and I'm glad my efforts are being appreciated.
Thank you this was awesome information!
You’re welcome!
Great lesson, Marc. Thank you for making it. I think I’ll try to replicate it on paper just like you did.
You’re welcome!

I used to only sketch armatures and never knew how to complete them. thank you for this insight :-)
You're welcome. I'm glad this video was helpful to you.
This is an excellent lesson, thank you Marc.
Thanks again!
Excellent!! Thank you, Marc! :)
Thank you!
Вподобайка.
Дякую тобі!
Thanks!
Thank you!
@@mkompan figure I owe you since I screen captured your armature guide.
@@dfinchermd Well, that's very generous of you nonetheless! I'm happy you found this video useful!
For me it‘s easier to start at the hips - try it.
I’ve tried every possible variation of this, believe me. Many artists start with what’s called “the bean,” which is a simplified torso.
I’ve found the method
Glad this was useful to you!
Thanks!
So nice of you! Thank you.
