"Because a cartoon is never going to look like the Mona Lisa."
Words can't describe how many artists need to hear this
Idk I like plenty of cartoons better than the Mona Lisa 😭🤣🤣🤣🤣 lol as funny as that is, that's just my personal taste in what makes my brain happy
sometimes I'm level 2, sometimes I'm level 5

My best friend is THE BEST ARTIST I personally know (her yt is GreenTree Illustrations) I guess you'll have to see for yourselves 😜
I recently levelled up from level 0 to level 1. Progress, yay!
Congrats! Keep going
Yes! You did it! Keep going, you'll do great! :D
You should post some when you feel comf ;w;
Congratulations!!

Thank you! I subbed to your channel too. :)

Shes maybe a level 6
baked potonion was placed at a level two but if you check out their work now its super clean and nice, easily way higher
Woah. 5 years ago I saw this video and tried to place myself in one of these sections, and I found myself at a one. I was around 11 years old. Now it’s 11 at night, I’m 16, and I’m so proud of myself to say that I’ve improved - even in the slightest way. I’m at a level four or five now, and I’m trying to push myself even further! Super cool to see how far I’ve come, this is more of a self indulgent post but damn is this awesome
So proud of you man keep going!
@@kinda_sane thanks so much Siya! You’re very kind :)
@@equally.marketable ofcc. I myself have been struggling but I’m really trna push myself. We’re in this together, the art community here
me and you both! thought I was level 3 at age 13, now I'm 16 and level 5 to maybe 6. perhaps it did pay off to keep going
I'm 13 and I'd say I'm about level 4! Super proud of myself:)

@@wqfflesyrup8740 lvl 4 your eyes I am sure are intended to be large but they seem like they are abit outside the face and your necks are too thin and long work on it particularly that's really dragging everything down hiding it wouldn't help in the long term. good luck
@@suryamohan3410 ok thank you!!

3:12 It’s my art! And it’s kinda cool coming back to this video years later.
I remember sending that drawing during my time in junior high, and I was super excited for the video to come out at the time! Of course, I was a little disheartened when I first heard my level, but eventually I started trying to work through some of my proportional issues!
I’d say I’m now level 3 and 4 nowadays, but I hope to still improve 😄
Nah your a good 4 or 5 imo by just looking at the stuff on your channel. Your an amazing artist keep up the good work! 💕
Wow! What a coincidence to find you here, and I'm proudly say you're on level 4 to def a 5 now! Your works are really amazing
About half of these views are from me over the years seeing how much I’ve improved and what I need to work on. I remember being here when I was about 8 or 9
Same bruv
SAME my old art is in this video and I come back to this all the time
Nice I have level 3 art :/
Me to!! :D
That moment when you realize a lot of level 1 drawings are better than your own, and you've been trying to draw for over 10 years.
*quietly sobs*
If it's anatomy/poses you're struggling with, try drawing athletes (baseball is my favourite to use) or dancers. It's helped me at least.
It took me about 30 Years of training, to learn how to draw. keep working.
Yeah. That's what makes this video false.
Nikku4211 no it is just very simplified
Alrik Scyriel That's not the case because an art experience where you've been drawing for years yet it still looks like a drawing from a 4 year old actually disproves what the person in the video is saying. That's not simplified. Simplified is if you're addressing everything that is important. Pretending some people don't exist isn't simplification, it's not knowing or ignoring.
I like how she doesn't make 'fun' of the artists who need more work, like a lot of other youtubers do. She gives good, helpful critique.
Agreed! Problems with videos like this are people joking but she genuinely critiques very respectfully!
yeah she did get on this video especially on the intro😊
Yeah!
Le Derp Draws :D there's also At ala Carte, River Spirit, Up in the Attic, all good channels. Ooh, and me and my friend, FnafLoneSolf, we draw too. We aren't very good, but we're getting better

This video has been on my "watch later" list for 4 years.
Today I finally watched it.
Good to know I'm between levels 4 and 5.
Love your content
When I first watched this in 2016 I was definitely a 1. I remember being insanely impressed by the higher levels. Now I think I’m somewhere between 4 and 5 :’)
I say this because even though I don’t think my art is on the technical level of five, I do think that stylistically would sell? Like I think my art is good enough and my art style is good/unique enough that people would buy art, but it’s not perfect execution, and while the technique is pretty OK, I have issues especially with proportion, hands, and lighting. However I don’t think that these are bad enough things/that I am bad enough at these days that it would stop people from finding my appealing
the gaps inside lvl 5 and 6 r so huge tbh when i first watched i was at 5 and now at 6 but the first piece from 6 is like lvl 12 im not getting to it ever lol
Massive thanks for using my art in level 0!
whoa that's yours? it looks amazing XD
dana dekker thanks! I owe it all to practice!
My god I wish I could draw like you
@@LambOfRegress Just keep (not) practicing and you too can achieve this!

i last watched this video in 6th n came back here as an 11th grader who graduates this year, more for nostalgia than anything. Cheers to making our art better lads
It's been years since I first watched this video, my art was at a level 3-4. I remember looking at the level 6 artworks and dreaming of being able to create something of that caliber. Well, it turns out,
dreams do come true.
I know you posted this ages ago lol but can I see? That's incredible!
@@user-tc8mn1qk3e Haha sure! Where could I send it to you?
@@kash.71 anything
tbh i feel like there r huge gaps between lvl 6 artists im probably on lvl 6 myself but the first piece in lvl 6 looks like some lvl 12
@@hlebzon first peice is fully rendered, depends on style tbh and also the others are more simplistic but you can see how they were drawn with ease and don't have any anatomical flaws etc. color choice and lighting are also very intentional. you can tell when someone knows anatomy and willingly bends it with those principles in mind vs makes mistakes which might happen when you're less aquainted w/ it
Basically all the drawings that are in level 1-3

And there is some traced art thrown in there too
Ghost's Shenanigans 👁👄👁
I'm not wrong tho
Yea *sits in lvl 2-3 with anime style amd too much ocs*
me thinking my art is good
this video:
*level 1*
Me thinking my art is improving.
After seeing level 3 on this video: Level 0 would be the quickest improvement.
Just because it’s level 1 doesn’t mean it’s bad TwT
Me, thinking im level 2: *sees i’m level 4*
*screams*
i think i'm level 1 just because of the software i use (paint)
@@Morganisgreat I'm also level 1 because I don't make actual art I only draw practice sketches
So I'm 15 and I've recently been through a phase of not drawing anything for weeks because everything I did looked awful and I was too scare to try to draw something and have to face it's not as good as I wish it was
But then I got over it and got more confident as I changed somethings I was used to do in my drawings.
I was confused at first at why and how that happened but after watching this I think I was going from level 2 to 3 :D
Guess I'll join y'all and come back here in a few years to see how far I've come lol
I don't actually really like drawing all that much but I really want to
I dont draw as much as I used to, for no reason
I remember when I first found this, I was like level two. Now, (probably 2-3 years later but maybe more cuz my memory sucks) I’m at level three! I’m so proud of where I started and how far I’ve come and also just remembering how much I loved this person’s channel when I was in my Warrior Cats phase. No regrets, and I can’t wait to see in another 2-3 years where I am again!
“You can’t sell bad anatomy”

But He learned the good one first😏
Whajxjxnnsmsms Draws well, at least he was exceptional as a young boy.
His anatomy wasnt bad. He saw a figure by different perspectives and tries to figure out the real form of life (for him and Braque, senses deceive us, and real shape it’s a 360’ view of the object or model)

Great idea. I'll just throw the proportions all over the place and pretend it's cubism.
Hey random artists! Just a tip on eyes:
-When drawing eyes, don't draw one eye, then the other. Instead, draw both eyes simultaneously by working on a certain part of the eye on one side, then do it on the other side copying the first.
Hope this helps
As a newbie, thank you for the advice! It does help a bit.
As a not-newbie, thanks for the advice as well😇😊.
I always need a reminder to do that👍
Thanks, i am new to drawing faces.
how?
I just tried to use this and it worked thank you it’s really good
Everyone commenting about coming back to this vid and finding out how much you've leveled up, i came back to this video to realize that level 1 me though i was level 3 and was utterly wrong lmao
(I think I'm in between lvls 3 and 4 now! :3
Do you mean 3.5?
My motivation when I saw level 6 : *Adios*
My hypercritical self : *bonjour*
Don't feel discouraged = ( there will always be people better than you. I am sure level 6 artists feel like they can never get close to the level of the European Renaissance greats.
That moment when your drawing is a 4-5 but your coloring is 1 ;-;
Mine is a 0
I've never related to something more.
Me doing a regular pen drawing: I am the true master.
Me, colouring it: goo goo ga ga *smears paint on the floor*

I am bad at shoulders...
Well, I just started drawing, and I draw mostly anime.
now, don't think of my drawings as craps.
No the other eye 😥
I love how the video isn't belittling newer artists instead telling them how they can improve
Also I love how two years ago i thought i was level 4 but indeed was nowhere near it
Right about nowdays I probably am
A little tip for level two sketches! Pressing down you pencil can indeed help with bringing up the contrast of your work. However, it can also create a glossy, reflective quality in your drawing. I'd recommend getting some 6B or 8B pencils to color in darker areas, and rather than press harder you can try going over the same area multiple times (This covers the paper while adding minimal amounts of reflection)
is sketch here meaning it is done but looks like sketch OR does it mean it is meant to be erased and replaced by the actual thing?
I assume the 2nd meaning
I press lightly because i need to erase, if i press harder i cannot
@@aykarainthey were referring to finished grayscale drawings where people press their pencil down harder to make it appear like a darker color
@@nicodawisp oh... so it was 1
My traditional art: Who are you?
My digital art: I’m you, but better.

2019 (age 11): Level 1 (1.5 or 2 for animals)
2020 (age 12): Level 2
2021 (age 13): Level 3
2022 (age 14): Level 3.5
I draw almost everyday and am constantly looking to improve my art, so hopefully I can get to level 4 by the end of the year. 2022 has by far been the most difficult art year for me, as I hate all my art, but looking back at how fast I have improved I feel a lot more motivated to keep going
The tip that helped me the most over the years was flipping ur drawing. As soon as i stared doing it my art became a lot better
Notice how the number of My Little Pony art drastically decreases the higher the level is.
LMAO
My younger sister transitioned from My Little Pony art to Pokemon art and I can see what you mean.

I remember looking at this in 2016, back then I was at level 1, I remember being so unconfident about my art to the point I almost gave up, but I never did and kept going, as of today I could say I’m level 4-5, it took me 4 years to get here, but thanks to this video I got more confidence in my art!
So to any artist that’s at level 1 or 2, please, do not give up! You will make it far if you draw and practice!
Wtf you are a speedrunner XD, nice job
I remember first watching this back in 2017-2018 being only a level 1 or maybe 2. After over 4 years of improvement, I think I can confidently say that I am a level 4 traditional anime-style artist ( possibly a level 5 on a good day ). Thank you for this video it has really helped me improve and figure out what I need to work on next.
I rewatch this every year to see if i leveled up lol.

Am I the only person who's level varies on different days
Socia Lips nope I'm pretty much the same. I think my art is generally a level 3 though I hav some level 2 art but my school artwork is level 4. But my school work does take a LONG time to do and it's quite detailed. I once stayed up till 3 finishing a piece 0_0
Socia Lips nope im the same
No
Nope
Socia Lips same here....!!
I like how multiple types of art were in each category so you see examples of level one pencil sketch and colored digital compare to level five pencil sketch and digital.
So I was around 13-14 when I first watched this video and I can clearly see that my art has improved greatly and I have definitely leveled up!

But that thing
*making both sides symmetrical*
it scares me
Ellen Sacco HOW DO WE DO THIS
*_Digital artist laugh in symmetry tool_*
@@jfduug4994
It actually depends if you are drawing a living or inanimate thing
Like if it is a humans or animals you don't have to make it symmetrical
But if it's something inanimate like a building or a box try to keep sketching inanimate objects around your house and eventually you'll get enough muscle memory to draw symmetrical without thinking
@@jfduug4994
Sorry for my horrible grammar cause English isn't my first language
Quick trick: when drawing digitally, draw the character straight on (if going completely symmetrical) like you would normally. Make a layer above that, and make a black box that covers half of the character. move the box left and right to see which side you prefer. Then slide the box over which side you *don't* like, select the box, delete the box layer, and then erase (or cut) the line art within your selection.
Then select the other half (the side you liked), duplicate it, (copy and paste) flip it horozontally, move it to where it needs to be...then merge them together.
bam. Perfect Symmetry. (some programs have a symmetry function in them, and if yours do, then for the love of god use that.)
However, in every other angle, (that isn't "head on" or "facing the audience") perfect symmetry is useless and can make it feel unnatural. if drawing human figures, learn how perspective affects the various body parts, and use "arcs" (or half circles) to keep your limbs proportional, even when in a pose or in perspective. Facial features also line up on arcs rather than pure symmetry, which helps you a lot more when tilting the head in *any* direction.

i'm level 1 or 2 idk... ;v; atleast i do something...
Wiwita When you know how to make a drawing better than everything in the level, that’s how you know you’re above it.
If you know you could make some of the drawinga of a level, that’s how you know you’re close to leveling up.
me too xD
Level 2 here! ^^
Level 1 artists mostly use one kind of brush, as soon as you start using multiple brushes you know you're improving
I kind of found this to be the opposite for myself lol
This is the type of video I can watch over and over and it will never become annoying

Dude, jump on Udemy and get the Digitally Painting Color and Light course by Austin Batchelor. You definitely will understand light and color after that. If you've never been on the site, it's 12 bucks to purchase the course. You can also wait until it goes on sale again.

I thinks your comics are around level 2 or 3 not only level 1. LOL

i think you should focus on the simplest anatomy before anything else (personnally i still aint got this right), THEN focus on the lighting, then on the coloring. 3 years ago i was trying real hard to improve my level 1 art to LITERALLY ANY LEVEL, i never tried coloring before this year and after watching my dozens of anime and disney movies, i got coloring right ! i also got shading right ! and creativity radiates from me like for real:) so really u just need to focus on one thing at a time ! and choose a style thats really easy for you ! try to make line arts w no color to improve anatomy, make it all with references! try drawing a simple curtain or a skirt with its shades and lights to practice where you place ur lights ! for COLORING man idk how i got it right, try using coloring pencils to get back to the base of coloring ! and shading doesn't always have to be gray w colors! thats the only advice i can give u ! im not a professional AT ALL but my art isn't trash and you're definitely not a professional but your art isn't level 1 ! dont give up boo ! keep drawing !

See now it's kinda weird because at every level there are pictures where I'm like "I'm a million times better then that" and others on the same level like "That gonna take me a long ass time"
Yes, in my mind, she isn't objective by choosing the pictures.
And all the pictures made on pc or mobile - the app can do some shadows and highlight, so: why are you talking about coloring - I mean - jeah, do some art with pencil and paper"

Have been focusing on anatomy, realism, semi-realism and traditional art for most of the time 'till now, and I'm happy to say that my digital art is cuttently on level 4 and my traditional art something in between 5 and 6.

@@VendenMiao if you flip a word, you can't read it. Like if you have a word on your shirt, then stand in the mirror, the word will become unreadable. 😄 Hope this helps!

“You can’t improve suddenly.”
*Me making a breakthrough in the overall design of a body part in my character*
“Hold my beer.”
lol same i do this too
Even that was because you practiced, studied anatomy or used a reference! They mean that you can’t do it immediately and not do any of these haha. Also this comment is old and I understand that.

@@forrestseven8355 I figured out how to draw legs like three months ago when I was drawing on my bathtub (dont ask) and I was like "Oh, what if I use this shape for the legs... :0" and now I can draw legs. I didn't really use references and I don't think I've ever studied anatomy other than the standard anatomy everyone knows lmao
i have a yearly thing where i come back here, i genuinely love this video!!
This video has been a huge help on my art journey for years now. I like to come back to it every couple years.
lvl 1: improve
lvl 2: you're okay
lvl 3: you're good
lvl 4: you're great
lvl 5: you're amazing
lvl 6: just draw demonic drawings and you're good
LVL 6 that is 666 points to The No Named Nicole
The No Named Nicole I am on none of those levels :>
Alanna Furto
Level 7: if you're drawing demonic drawings...stop ur drawing urself. No human can draw dis guud
Lvl 1: improve
Lvl 2: improve
Lvl 3: improve
Lvl 4: improve
Lvl 5: improve
Lvl 6: improve
If you love art and want to take it seriously you should always try to improve your art xD
The No Named Nicole I must be amazing then
I love how you made constructive criticism for lower levels without putting anyone on blast
she should blast...
@@viviv6774 why??
I love revisiting this video every few years to see what my art level is at. Since I first found this video 6ish years ago, my art has progressed from a 3 to a 5, which I'm quite proud of.
Watching really great artists do speed-draw videos is a great learning tool. Seeing a blank paper turn into a jumble of lines, a sketch figure, then a wire-frame body, then seeing it being fleshed out and clothing added, then colored, shaded, and tweaked until it's a finished masterpiece- it's just a mind blowing high speed education. For a lower level artist, you can immediately see where you can improve or what steps you've been skipping or glossing over. So many learning artists tend to do the finished outline first and then try to fill in the hole. An experienced artist does it the other way around, and it takes seeing it to really get it.
The problems you can have:
Level one:
-you usually spend a lot of time on your art
-the lines on your drawing aren't as confident as a level two artist
-held back by anatomy and shape
-the coloring is scribbled in fill for traditional art, in digital art there's white gaps or pixellated edges
Recommended drawing programs: FireAlpaca and Krita (they're both free)
*Keep drawing for fun, draw things you like and you will automatically get the experience you need to reach level two.*
Level two:
-lines and colors are cleaner than level one
-shading is imprecise
-anatomy and shape problems
-boxy feeling
-trying shades
-sketches aren't strong
Level three:
-rarely has issues with line
-pose might be awkward and unnatural
-maybe inbalance in the character's symmetry (flip picture to see if it's ungood (it's hell))
-shape can be off
*Even if you draw cartoons, you need to practice anatomy and shapes from real life*
-you should start paying attention on composition
Level four:
-if there's anatomy/shape problems, they are unnoticeable
-solid composition; rarely useless space
-some pieces will be well composed
The drawing can be very simple.
*Improve your art skill you have two options: formal or informal training. [...] Read a book. Do life drawings. Look for classes by artist who have been working professionally for more than ten years*
Level five:
-probably anatomy problems
-could have more defined light and shadow contrast
Level six:
She can't help you and I cannot either, it's just perfecto
Thanks for making this very helpful video, I going too look up at this channel!
Don't forget guys, never give up your art! ^w^
When you can't even draw a stickman
@@pillow1557 Try it, you will be suprised how easy it is to draw a stickman
@@pillow1557 no one can draw a stickman if they never try. If great artists gave up before they could even start there would be no good art. Art is not something someone is magically either good at or not good at. It's a learning process. You wouldn't expect someone to be good at math if they never learned how to add, why would it be any different with drawing?
I'm a 3
Me: Oh, I must be level 2...
**sees "spends long time on art"**
*never mind*
I remember the days when my art was in the 1-2 range. I would see beautiful drawings other people did and I aspired to become just as good as they are. Here I am seven years later with a 5-6 level skillset. For anyone who is just starting out, never give up. Draw as much as possible and give it time. Improving doesn't come quickly and that's perfectly fine. You will get there :)
Furrŕrdrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
*sniff* I needed to hear that, thank you
damn well done my guy :)
i also know that drawing improves over time... because... well... *looks over my bad old art using only circle heads*.... yeah.
Imagine in another 7 years, maybe exceeding level 7 or 8
Sometimes I think about little me 7-8 years ago drawing paw patrol characters & making warrior cats ocs and dreaming about having good art like the youtubers I watched at the time and here I am today, an adult, with a level 4 mindset, an actual tablet with a screen (albeit being an android tablet, still a huge step up from my pad tablet of years past).
I don’t make traditional art in the sense of like fully finished art with blooming colors and crazy realistic parts, mine is either b&w or using more faded colors and every time I try to finish something I make into a smooth colored piece I get so discouraged and usually give up. My finished pieces are always sketchy in some form since my style favors it & just looks off with smooth lineart. Weirdly though I take most of my inspiration from hanna barbera cartoons which are pretty smooth in looks
Anyway, I’m not sure where I’m going with this, I’m very proud of myself for how far I’ve come since then and I love my art style since it’s unique and I wouldn’t trade what I make for smooth brightly colored art. But I’m still insecure about it since a lot of people believe the latter to be “good”, and sketchy grayscale art to be “bad”. One of my mom’s friends has a kid who makes seriously incredible hyper realistic art and when I was a bit younger, around 4 years ago, making my cartoons she would always compare what I made to her and it really ruined my outlook and will to keep making art. If art and drawing weren’t outlets to get my emotions out I would’ve definitely given up because I felt I HAD to make a certain kind of art for it to be good. Luckily I didn’t and here I am now :)
What kind of art do you make if I can ask? Like what style do you primarily have?
I’ve been considering biting the metaphorical bullet and setting up a deviantart or something to post mine since I don’t share it and I’d love to make more art friends
I remember seeing this when it first came out, when I was about 11. I even submitted a few of my first ever digital pieces to a ranking stream where I think I was evaluated as a level 2. Now I solidly believe my work is at least a 4 bordering on 5 after years of continual practice, and it's surreal. It's genuinely so heartwarming and I sometimes imagine showing my younger self some of my newer pieces and imagining her absolute shock as she tries to comprehend that she grows up to be the person that drew that.
OH my God when I first watched this video, I thought I was for sure level 3 (probably in 2017.) Now I'm looking at my new art, and I think I'm a level 5 or 6 for some of my best pieces. I'm totally shocked, I'm just so proud of myself and how far I've come. I've even started selling my art, teaching at a local studio, and gotten accepted to a college. Thanks so much for inspiring young me :)
when i first watched this video, i was level one..
..and now im still level 1.
Work your way up the ranks! I believe in you!
Good job! I wish I could be that good!
@@avamatthews1459 I admire your sarcasm, trooper.
im a level 2 now
Mind-boggling improvement!
I wonder if anybody watching this saw their art and just said, "Damn level 1 seriously?"
was me 2-3 years ago
@@wanderingdreams5490 same
I was a level one artist and I thought I was a level 3 lmao
@@nycto5147 Same, tho I was level 3 and thought I was level 5 or 6, I feel so stupid for thinking that now looking back😂
@@iamacat6448 ikkkk when you overestimate your art and you look back like “nahhhh”
One of the things that helps is to redraw old art, to clearly see how far you’ve come helps motivate me
On top of being super helpful by giving me an easy way to quantify my skill, (something that is VERY hard to find for art), this video has done something entirely unexpected- given me motivation! I seem to be between 4 and 5, which is gratifying enough to give me the boost I needed today to go draw something!
Drawing is weird. When you just make a drawing you think you're like a level 5 but then a few years later you look back and realize it looked TERRIBLE.
Ultranoahroblox - Roblox & AJ Videos! I agree XD now I want to throw them away but my parents think that they’re *MAJESTIC*
Thats the struggle of keeping old art, but it shows you have improved
I'm a medium of confidence and not confidence.
Ultranoahroblox - Roblox & AJ Videos! So true
I know looking back at drawing i made as a kid with shadows and all aka level one and think its okay as a kid I though....
Omg this is the best thing ever lets go put it in the musium

*scp-3000 employees intensifies*
Im level 1, and im 11 years old, i hope i gat better when i get older :D
It wont take long I was a level 1 at 10, but now a few years later I'm a level 4/5 now. You'll make it.
aww trust me time will blow by fast and you'll barely notice the progress until you look back at old drawings. when i was 13 on down (yes i drew for fun a lot as a kid) i was level 1, but fast forward to now i barely noticed the progress until i did a redraw of a drawing i did in 2015. time flies
small advice: make sure you keep track of all your art now so you can see the improvements in the future
good luck
Watched this years back at level 1, coming back at level 6, I still love this episode
Lvl 10 Can draw the other eye
Hailey Minos omg so relatable
I can NEVER EVER draw the other eye
oh sorry i do that too but what about on paper
Copy, paste, flip horizontally, position, done
... Yup
cringemaster67 I didn't see the replies, I literally was only replying to the original comment which had no mention of paper.
Just use a ruler
i'm still questioning at what level my art is after watching this vid
Same lmao, ive been coming back to this video for almost two years. Its just so interesting and informative. Maybee im level 3.5? Lol
Same I'm like 2, 3 or 4 ;-;
Same. But i kinda think 3
Right? You have an idea, but you aren't sure unless you send the art yourself.
its honestly not that big of a deal anyways. this video just entertains me, lol.
Straight up Ive been coming back every few years just to see how much Ive improved. Ive went from about level 2 when this video came out to about level 4! Seriously this video is really helpful.
My worst fear when I draw:
-The other eye
-Inspiration
-Drawing the lineart in the sketch layer
Edit: I haven't even finished the sketch I drew 2 years ago and still haven't thought abt it now
My worst fear is failing and then losing every drop of confidence and not draw for a month
my fear is drawing on the wrong layer
Huh i watched this 2 years ago and i was a level 2.
2019 and now im level 4
nice.
Same here, when I look back at my art 2 years ago it's cringy af
oof same, I'm glad I improved over the years!
My art was so bad...
Lost Swiftpaw me too and I’ve improved alot
I was level 2 but now I'm 3 :( slow growing
My journey!
2015: level 0
2016: level 0.5? Idk man
2017: level 1
2018: level 1.5
2019-now: level 2!
Keep going!!
Yay!! Cant wait t'ill your level 6!
will it really take that long?
@@Sunfish789 Don't let these type of people discourage you. Level 1 is the beginner level so you can't really start with level 0 and need two years to level up. You never know how many people are lying here but it looks like most people reach lvl 2-3 in one year if they practiced the right way. I think the most people who say they are at the same level since a few years are just drawing without really trying to improve.
@@brownwolf5766 thank you
Every couple of months I will come back to this video to see if I've improved at all or relate to any of the higher levels, this is my third time watching it
I'm back- and I think I've definitely improved, I think I'm around a level 2, on the cusp of level 3
@@tippitytoppity9001 how about now?
Damn it's been six years?
Well six years ago I ranked in level three with a fast drawing. Now I can confidently say I've leveled up to level 4. Some days when I take the time to I can get some level 5 drawings or paintings done but I'm still working towards getting that level of consistency. More than anything I'm working on honing the intent and mood of I'm working on. It's really nice to look back, I'm glad I didn't chicken out on putting myself out there.
15:10 *SPITS OUT TEA*
Sweet Calamity HONESTLY.
Cristine from simplynailogical approves. BRING ME MY TEA
this HAS to be more than six
YUP! I CAN ONLY SAY"HOLY MOLY"
I ain't cleaning that up.
0- when I have an art block
1- when I'm like 'meh'
2- when I actually put in some effort
3- when I put in A LOT of effort which I rarely do.
So yeah I'm a level 2
wait what exactly in the world same , how old are you im gonna gues between 11 and 15 .... Im 12
Poot Lovoto 13
I'm a level 2 RARELY I'm a level 3
wait what exactly in the world I'm level 2, sometimes I space out and become level 3 for a minute before being level 2 again.
I'm the exact same, I'm a level 2 but I can be level 3 if I try hard enough.
i first watched this around 6 years ago and honestly would’ve put myself at around a 2, now on a good day i’d consider myself a 6. it was cool coming back to this seeing reflections of my own art in all these great artists who’s skill levels i thought i’d never be able to reach.
Same! It’s so nice to see my improvement that I aspired to as a little kid.
