    This is why I love art. Seeing different variations of the same subject. You can have 10 different artists drawing Chung li and they will all look different, but that's what makes it cool. It's like different bands doing covers, not the same as the original song, but you don't want it to be! Awesome stuff 😎👍

    I love how loose and figurative everything is ^_^ It's almost like you're on a stream of consciousness drawin' mode. I love the community feel you created out of this challenge. There are no trolls, and everyone is so supportive of each other even though we are all aiming to become healthy and win your sketchbook haha :D Can't wait to see everyones transformation at the end of this mission! Thanks Ahmed!

  • @Pinko_Band

    Also, it seems that a lot of artists that I know of (and just hear talking about in general) have a hard time with depression and how that can affect creativity and motivation--myself included. It may sound too easy, but unless you've seen or felt the results of how a change of diet and implementing even mild to moderate exercise can be such a revelation in combating depression. Those things stimulate the brain and releases all sorts of endorphins that bring the brain back to homeostasis. I guess the most difficult thing for most people is getting started in the first place, but once you dig up some discipline and stick to a regular routine you'll find that you will start to have more and more energy. Not just physical energy but mental/creative as well. This should not be underestimated!!! And I praise Aha-med for inspiring folks to get going!!!

  • @arcct5504

    • @Pinko_Band
      @Pinko_Band 8 лет назад

      +matter85 You don't need a gym mate! Use stuff around the house, get creative! Gaaaahhhhhh!!!

    • @matter85
      @matter85 8 лет назад

      No house, just a tiny dorm room in the city lol.

    • @Pinko_Band
      @Pinko_Band 8 лет назад

      matter85 Oh geez, same difference!!! There are plenty of exercises you can do in a dorm room. Me and my friends did all the time. The point is you can do them anywhere and not need a gym. Don't use that as an excuse! That's an easy trap to fall into and get stuck in. Get motivated brahhhh!!!! Dewwwwiittttt!!!!

    • @matter85
      @matter85 8 лет назад

      Lmao, anything you can recommend, because when I mean small its like 8 feet by 6 feet.

    • @Pinko_Band
      @Pinko_Band 8 лет назад +1

      matter85 Ok so, for example, I think Aha-med mentioned the push/pull stuff which is a really good place to start if you are wanting to do more than just cardio (which a bike is good for if you have one for getting around campus--if not, run!). If u can get ur hands on some dumbbells, then u don't need a lot of room to use them. If not, then use your books! Pushups, pullups, curls, shoulder presses, etc. Look up all the different exercises that you can do with little or no equipment. Like I said, u may just have to get a little creative, but waiting until you have "all the right equipment" to get started is just giving in to procrastination and you'll never get going. No excuses, if you really want to do it, then you will.

  • @aimeefritz9186
    @aimeefritz9186 8 лет назад

    Awesome video, nice figures! This is question out there for any artists: I've been wanting to get better at figure drawing for so long but I don't know how to approach it properly. I find myself getting stuck, like i learn proportion like the cubes and then.... What's next? Detailed anatomy of the arms?? Anatomy of the trunk??? How do you artists approach learning anatomy. Do you go one section by one section detailed per day and then repeat the cycle over again? Or practice the figure in general like study all the parts, legs, arms, and everything in one go everyday? Any advice would be super cool.

    • @AhmedAldoori
      @AhmedAldoori  8 лет назад +1

      +Aimee Fritz Pick your favorite characters, draw them a lot from reference. You can have an anatomy reference sheet if you want, so that when you're drawing Chun Li's leg, you can say, oh! This is a gastrocnemius! And quadriceps! Also figure drawing, drawing people from real life is great.
      I drew lots of Spiderman.

    • @aimeefritz9186
      @aimeefritz9186 8 лет назад

      +Ahmed Aldoori awesome, great advice! Thanks! :D oh yeah I've heard in some of your videos about spiderman too, I'll give it a shot. Keep doing the awesome work that you're doing!

    • @z-dinestudio4165
      @z-dinestudio4165 8 лет назад +1

      +Aimee Fritz I like to alternate between references and technique. So I might spend a while practicing a new drawing technique from imagination (like boxes or coils) and then do some sketches from reference poses, magazines or real life. Sometimes just sitting in a park or on the subway and sketching people as they go by is great practice, because it forces you to work on visual memory and understand complex forms from very brief glimpses.

  • @ahr3352
    @ahr3352 8 лет назад

    I love the idea and how you are inspiring everyone to better themselves! Kind of a shame though like for me I know I could do this but I don't really need it to and I would love to have/see the whole sketchbook :( Couldn't you maybe scan it and sell it as an online sketch book in gumroad? I think thats a pretty good idea and would be nice for the ones that tried and didn't win!

    • @AhmedAldoori

    Yay for snapchat! Also if you're having muscle problems magnesium tablets seem to help me, I get really bad calf muscle cramps if I walk too fast straight away (and with skating) They seemed to help me. Bananas are good for muscle cramps too 👍🏻 I also have shitty knees 😣

    • @StaynHungry

    First thing, i loveeee your style, just love it. Second thing, you seem very comfortable drawing body forms. How do u study the human muscle structures? Like no matter the angle, you drew chun li's thighs look hot lol and third, your knees probably hurts bc its not use to your weight and u suddenly start running. If youre going to hit the gym, maybe start w the aliptical (i think thats how u spell it)

    Hey Aha-med! I was curious as to what your day job is? As in whether or not it was in the art field or not (some folks I follow on here do not have art-related day jobs). Wasn't sure if you've talked about it before. Just curious, no biggie.

    Im in my second year of an animation highschool in Sweden. I would love to work with concept art and recently i have started asking around about what or where i should study to become a concept artist.
    My teachers are not helping, with them mostly knowing about the anmation and clasical art industry and not so much about the gaming and concept art part. I asked them and they sugested an illustrarion course but I have a feeling that its not the same as studying concept art.
    So yeah can someone tell me is illustration courses are the same as concept art and are there any special schools for concept art. Thank you!

      +Bimbo Sheniqua Try doing some wrist stretches twice a day, especially if you spend a lot of time typing, painting or working with your hands. It can save you from developing carpal tunnel, which is really awful. If you do a quick google search there are tons of resources that recommend various wrist stretches.

    Hi Ahmed I just saw your ''how I got into art'' video and you asked about our story's and because you probably wouldn't see it if i posted this comment there i thought i'd put it here.
    So i just wanted to say that i think people like you give me insperation. I mean the art teachers at my school are nice and all but they dont really ''believe'' in me, its not that im bad at art but just that they dont think its posible to make a carreer out of art other than teaching. You help me see that it is posible and that you can do it if you work really hard. My art story is pretty much the same as yours only im just 16. We have to choose a new school next year and i choose an art school. Whenever i tell people about that there kinda like : ''well its not really a real job is it?''.
    Thats really frustrating cuse no one thinks its a good disition exept my parents. So i geuss i just want to thank you for being a great insparation

RUclips can be very time consuming and you're still newish. You've been doing a lot of cool things for this community and we all love you lots, but I worry about that. You can only be expected to do so much.
    I'm not trying to make it harder for lots of people to participate or have a chance to win. I just think you have a lot on your plate and you always seem kinda tired in your videos😰 I tend to over think things, so sorry if it seems like I'm talking out of my ass lol.
