This is phenomenal material. Just getting back into drawing after many years of not touching a pencil. Thank you for the inspiration and thorough explanations.
Been loving these videos! You give a lot of great advice that I’ve talked myself through over the past year. Every weekend I go to the zoo and sketch the animals, and I can dissect little points you make here and there into what I’ve seen myself doing. Like when working under time constraints (that animal is going to move eventually!), focus on where you want the audience to focus, and indicate the rest. The brain fills in the rest of the details. “Less is more.”
This is absolutely amazing, has helped me a lot with my sketches. When I first saw the head of this creature, I imagined a giant serpent swirling around the page and disappearing into the fog
I am loving your approach to commentary. You cover all of the questions that my brain normally comes up with while watching a drawing take shape. Very refreshing from general talk about practicing fundamentals.
I love how the graphite and the Prisma color make it look so clean! I am super excited to try this method of going over my drawing multiple times! I also just wanted to say thank you for making these! Ive been drawing my whole life but gave up a while ago because I couldnt find a channel to teach me in a way that reached me. I love how you are not using an eraser too! So thank you!!!
Dude these videos are so helpful, i love your art style and I’m all into the kind of universe you try to convey within your drawings. Keep up with these informative videos please!
Give us all the lesson you can think of man. Can’t quite explain what it is about your content. I just resonate with you, and feel like I learn best from just watching you do your thing and talking about it as you go. Keep doing what your doing 🙏
I love monsters and I love your creature design! Also learned a lot, I've been practicing my traditional art once again(been doing digital for a long time and traditional art is refreshing!) You also gained a sub
Thanks, I absolutely love your art style. I am in the very infant stages to having something that can resemble your art but hopefully one day. You definitely give me the drive to keep practicing. I don’t have much to give but I hope this helps to keep going.
Been a fan for years. Never thought to look for YT vids. The creature is great, but to see how calm, and slow you approach the process is the nugget I took from here. Also the breakdown of shading with several passes helped something click for me. Thank you so much for sharing your strategy and mindset.
Thank you very much! To be fair, I've had this channel for a decade and only just started being serious about posting at the end of May. I never really promoted it.
CANT get enough of these man, you really brought back a creative part of me back from the abyss I’m seeing improvement in my own work after each video! Thank you so much
Bobby, thank you so much for your videos. I came upon them about 2 weeks ago and have been fascinated by them ever since. I used to draw years ago, but kind of lost my verve to continue. Your videos are allowing me to have a comeback!!! Thank you so much from South Africa.
Hey man, I am an animation tutor. I started out drawing characters then I was taken by 3D and have been farming renders for years... Recently, I have had to teach some life drawing classes and your videos helped me big time! Great explanations and love hearing your thought process. Learnt a lot.
You are so welcome! Just remember to apply it lightly like the pencil. You can even go back over the Prismacolor with graphite again to make it super smooth.
Finally discovered THE drawing channel i've been looking for ages . Thank you for igniting my desire to draw again . Looking forward watching the rest of your videos . Thank you !
I love the way you talk about stuff. Really easy to understand what you are conveying. I've had serious terror of blank paper recently and these are helping me out of it. Kudos to you.
Very interesting i love your shading technique i have adopted that into my own drawing though i am very much a beginner i really like how that method builds a texture on the paper and helps lessen the glare of the white on the paper
You techniques and tips are so helpful! I'm very excited to try out this combo of prisma colour and graphite pencil. I Really appreciate sharing this tutorial 🙏😊
Yoooo, been following your work for a while, was super excited when I realized this channel was yours. Awesome to see you draw and talk about your work! Looking forward to more videos!
I've just started watching your videos and I love how you show all the process! I don't know how this doesn't get more recognition if it's so good and well-explained
Really enjoyed this, I find it very difficult to concentrate and explain what and why, you do it so well. I also got a lot from the way you got the levels of contrast. Brilliant, many thanks
never seen a video approach creature drawings like this! includes lots of techniques I havent heard of before. itll be loong before i can make art this good but for now Im excited about trying out the darkened spikes and 3 layer shading approach :)
Hey! I found your channel recently and have some ideas of what would be interesting to see more of, in my opinion: *creatures (of your own choice) climbing buildings/breaking through buildings *creature on top of cars/busses etc. and ripping open the rooftop *barely visible creature inside a den/lair What i like about this drawing in the video: the several lines across on the worm's body, next to its arms/claws and how you made the toungue and mouth with dark lines -giving the opening to the mouth more debth. BTW: would LOVE to see some car design drawings or sketches! Maybe some tips on the matter as well.
What’s needed is deliverance and to do anything you need the motivisation and concept or proper visory to stand by ur picture and really take time to kinder or harness. My own experiences have been slight but everything starts with a well improvised utilization.
I am not into this type of art. but do enjoy. I think is helps younger children to use their imagination more freely. that the constant use of videos. This way they can leave behind , and learn something a bit more about who they are. Capable to capture something on paper. a shape, something not seen, but they had created.
Hi. Jim from Madrid, Spain (a fellow artist and a New Yorker expat living abroad). Great creature out of your mind... perspective, proportions and realism (based on anthropomorphic features) are real good. I also use Faber-Castell pencils (2H, 2B & 6B in 2mm clutch holders + Pitt Mate Black pencils for darker tones) but your idea of combining a coloured pencil with graphite for the darks is really good! Prismacolors (made in Mexico, I believe) are very very expensive in Europe (due to import/export taxes + int'l shipping) but here we have Derwent, Faber-Castell & Caran D'Ache coloured pencils at a much affordable price (Caran D'Ache are waxed based as Prismacolor, the others are Oil based) but the idea of using both mediums (Graphite + Coloured Pencils - Not graphite) is very interesting to achieve the real deep blacks! I'll be starting to use the idea with my Faber-Castell Black Coloured pencil (oil based) to give it a try in a New Tarantula project I'll be starting next week. Again... thanks for sharing! And... Cheers from Sunny Spain! 😁👍😎✌
BTW - the reason for the explanation on Clouded pencils is to be able to achieve pure or more pure blacks that graphite provides... the look & feel of the drawing is waaay better when darker blacks are applied. Cheers! 😁👍
I'm a relatively young artist, and the ways that you draw and come up with your creatures on the go is awe-inspiring. I rewatched this video several times whilst working on a piece trying to use your advice and holy cow! Making the tips of spikes, tails, claws, etc. is a SUPER useful tip that I've never even thought of! I'll definitely come back to this channel for more... love the work you do, and keep it up!:)
The video is just so calming and its just a unique vibe which draws me to watch the video. The creature is just so ugly but full of emotion. Just beautiful art from the heart!
Loved this! Looking forward to future vids, definitely would love to see more stuff on how to start a design, where you get ideas from and how to bring them out on paper, construction and references, how to study the references to be able meld them and so on. Basically whatever you know lol.
Absolutely amazing lesson. Best I’ve seen. Any chance of a short video helping us to grasp your process of how you make the eyes appear 3D and also the small spikes become 3D please Jeff
Loved LD&R❤ Sonnie’s Edge was my favorite episode. Great stuff. I’m actually interested in doing creature design to go into paintings and printmaking, along with other portraiture work
This video helped me a lot, especially since my artwork mainly consists of cosmic horror/ realistic horror, and I will say that I hope to reach your level of skill someday. You’re talent is amazing and so is your artwork
I have really enjoyed watching your videos. I want to learn how to create drawings of this nature, but I am a beginner. I am self-teaching and watching RUclips videos to learn different techniques. I will be watching more of your videos and hopefully I can pick up some of your techniques. I would greatly appreciate any advice you would like to share.
This is so cool! I really like this sketchy art. Reminds me of the art in the Diablo art books which I got because of the art. It gives it kind of an antique feeling.
I will say this much Draw Sessions, I myself found out I'm better when it comes to monsters. More specifically Dragon head sketches. But still, I've done other stuff before. As an artist I struggle with coming up with what I want to put on the paper, as well as struggling to take it from my mind to paper. Another thing would be details, not heavy details, but the small details like on the heads of your creatures. I'm very inspired, and I would probably end up analyzing your creatures to learn more on how to expand my mind and let it freely draw. But with the idea of what I'm going for. I love your drawings, and the way you teach, you're an amazing artist and I hope to learn more from you.
Wow, the path from Industrial Design to concept art is apparently pretty well paved at this point. Scott Robertson, Craig Mullins, Syd Mead, Bobby Rebholz....hopefully me too with a little more practice here. Awesome video!
If you enjoy this lesson, please give a thumbs up and comment to help spread the message. There are also brand new prints of my demon series that are available in the first link in the description 🤘
I design creatures for the film industry and do my best sketches and designs in either number 2 pencil or ball point pen. Your work is great!
This is phenomenal material. Just getting back into drawing after many years of not touching a pencil. Thank you for the inspiration and thorough explanations.
You're very welcome!

Yo THANK YOU! 🙏
I am for drawing 45 years, with graphic design as background....still i saw you do some things i can learn from! Thnx great channel!

This is sick! You seriously deserve so much more recognition, and I have really learned a lot from your videos.
As long as people are learning, that's what matters most. But seriously, thank you.
This video really helped me! The shading techniques are very powerful! Thank you!! Atmospheric Perception! I Love It!
You're so welcome!
Imagination is everything at this point. Well done!
CANT get enough of these man, you really brought back a creative part of me back from the abyss I’m seeing improvement in my own work after each video! Thank you so much
Glad you like them!
WTH, Im new to your channel and Im already addicted to your drawings, they look really sick🔥
Thank you so much 😀
Bobby, thank you so much for your videos. I came upon them about 2 weeks ago and have been fascinated by them ever since. I used to draw years ago, but kind of lost my verve to continue. Your videos are allowing me to have a comeback!!! Thank you so much from South Africa.
Thank you. Your wisdom has helped me kick down some walls that have hindered me for years.
You are so welcome

Yo thank you! Also, your Avatar is the best because there's only one Shang Tsung!
You are so kind
insightful info and incredible artwork !
Thank you!
The creature drawing is so cool and awesome.
Please more creatures! Thank you for being so patient and thorough with your information
Love your technique. So helpful.
Glad it was helpful!
This is great, I loved the nuggets of wisdom you dropped esp. using Prismacolor pencils over graphite. Wow, never thought of that, it's brilliant!
You are so welcome! Just remember to apply it lightly like the pencil. You can even go back over the Prismacolor with graphite again to make it super smooth.
You have opening a new world for me. 😊
Finally discovered THE drawing channel i've been looking for ages . Thank you for igniting my desire to draw again . Looking forward watching the rest of your videos . Thank you !

I love hearing that.
thank you, it's so cool to hear your thinking process while you do it
Glad you enjoyed it
I really appreciate this video I stumbled upon your channel and I am loving this type of content thanks for the inspiration!
Your voice is nice and calming, and it's fun to learn some stuff while also working on other projects by just having this running in the background.
Thank you very much!
I really appreciate seeing your process. I'm an artist myself, and it's always interesting and valuable to see how other artists work.
Love it, analysed it, I'm so inspired right now ! Tks a lot for sharing

Glad it was helpful!
I have learned more from one video than all of college studies on art. Thank you so much and keep on creating such wonderful terrifying critters
My pleasure 😊
I think it kinda looks cute, but hey, maybe that's just me? o_Ò}
never seen a video approach creature drawings like this! includes lots of techniques I havent heard of before. itll be loong before i can make art this good but for now Im excited about trying out the darkened spikes and 3 layer shading approach :)
Glad you liked it!
im so glad i found this channel
I love your lessons! They are so easy to follow.
Glad you like them! Just trying to help as many folks as I can.
Hey! I found your channel recently and have some ideas of what would be interesting to see more of, in my opinion:
*creatures (of your own choice) climbing buildings/breaking through buildings
*creature on top of cars/busses etc. and ripping open the rooftop
*barely visible creature inside a den/lair
What i like about this drawing in the video: the several lines across on the worm's body, next to its arms/claws and how you made the toungue and mouth with dark lines -giving the opening to the mouth more debth.
BTW: would LOVE to see some car design drawings or sketches! Maybe some tips on the matter as well.
OMG! I have seen you work and I'm sooo happy you have a channel 💖 Love you work. It has inspired me so much! ✨
Thank you and welcome aboard!
I'm just really enjoying these videos. Can't say that enough. Thank you for sharing your time and talents with us all.
Love it, and using the prismacolor makes sense. Thank you ❤
Once you get good at the Prismacolor too, they work so well together!
This is brilliant. Thank you so much for this ❤❤❤
Thanks, man!
I really enjoyed drawing this while watching you draw this. Thank you
What’s needed is deliverance and to do anything you need the motivisation and concept or proper visory to stand by ur picture and really take time to kinder or harness. My own experiences have been slight but everything starts with a well improvised utilization.
Beyond Aquila rift was my fav ep too! You got great taste 😎

Thank you, I enjoyed watching and also listening 👏⭐️❤
Glad you enjoyed it
You have amazing drawing abilities, really inspirational. Thx.
Thank you so much 😀
I'm subscribing.
you honestly need more subscribers then 2k and more attention then 1k views.
Thanks, man. I'm finally trying to grow the channel now. Let's see what happens.
This is amazing! I really look forward to seeing everything else that you have in store!
More to come!
I like the ideas that come to mind for different uses of this atmospheric style, which is new to me. Thanks
You're welcome!

Great advice and technique
Glad you enjoyed it!
Subbed, really like that drawing.
Thanks for the sub!
I just found your work. I'm going to watch every video. I really like your style and imagination
Wow thank you!
So extremely creepy (this creepy crawly.) and particularly nice commentary on this video. I’ve really been loving your channel. ❤
The video is just so calming and its just a unique vibe which draws me to watch the video. The creature is just so ugly but full of emotion. Just beautiful art from the heart!
Loved this! Looking forward to future vids, definitely would love to see more stuff on how to start a design, where you get ideas from and how to bring them out on paper, construction and references, how to study the references to be able meld them and so on. Basically whatever you know lol.
Thank you. I have several videos on those in my creature design series.
Absolutely amazing lesson. Best I’ve seen. Any chance of a short video helping us to grasp your process of how you make the eyes appear 3D and also the small spikes become 3D please
Jeff
Good suggestion!
I really love your drawings, please keep bringing us your art
Phenomenal!
Loved LD&R❤ Sonnie’s Edge was my favorite episode. Great stuff. I’m actually interested in doing creature design to go into paintings and printmaking, along with other portraiture work
That's also a great episode.
I liked that episode because Cédric Peyravernay was the concept artist, he is is one of my favorite. He also did the Dishonored games.
SICK DESIGN! AND AWESOME VIDEO
you have a lot of talent
🙏
I loved watching this. Such a cool creature. Gave me some ideas even though I only draw pixelart.
Keep up the amazing work and inspiration
This video helped me a lot, especially since my artwork mainly consists of cosmic horror/ realistic horror, and I will say that I hope to reach your level of skill someday. You’re talent is amazing and so is your artwork
Cosmic horror is where it's at!
These lessons are so good
Thank you
One of the best!
Thanks, dude!
I have really enjoyed watching your videos. I want to learn how to create drawings of this nature, but I am a beginner. I am self-teaching and watching RUclips videos to learn different techniques. I will be watching more of your videos and hopefully I can pick up some of your techniques. I would greatly appreciate any advice you would like to share.
Badass man- I love creature design but could learn a lot from videos like this. Thanks for the info and keep it up💯
Awesome creature, liked the entire video going to do a study on creatures in a game I play with the guidance you passed.
Glad you enjoyed it!
So many good pieces of advice, I have already begun applying some of these techniques in my sketchbook. Thanks 🙏
Thanks a lot for the vid! You deserve a billion subs and I’m rooting for you 🎉
I appreciate that!
You’re truly amazing 🐐
Awwww thanks☺️
like how you specialize in creatures... haven't came across an artist like that before 👍
Thanks. It's my jam!
Love that creature and how you develope it ....there is so much there to learn from you Thanks !!!1
Glad you enjoy it!
This is so cool! I really like this sketchy art. Reminds me of the art in the Diablo art books which I got because of the art. It gives it kind of an antique feeling.
This was very helpful, I would like to see how you approach n do ur Dragons n Snakes as far as details on skin and scale's
Thanks for the idea!
This is sick 😙🤘
Amazing contrast, the video title does not lie.
really love watching your videos
That means a lot. Thank you.
Fantastic! 🎉 Thank you ❤😊
You are so welcome!
Love your style

Wow, the path from Industrial Design to concept art is apparently pretty well paved at this point. Scott Robertson, Craig Mullins, Syd Mead, Bobby Rebholz....hopefully me too with a little more practice here. Awesome video!
It's a common transition and most people who do it end up in prop or hard surface design.
You drawing is amazing! I was thinking as you were mentioning light, it would be cool to see a creature with a “flashlight” lighting from the front
