That reminds me when I had to post my face and the drawing of my face to a slideshow in google classroom because of covid. People were required to comment on 1 or 2 drawings. I got a comment that said something like “It looks exactly like you!” Idk if that was a comment or insult lol my drawing was ugly but so am I. Lmao
You aint ugly, and do to listen to her. shes a good artist but idont agree on what she just said but yeah personal preferences. However a good artist draw whatever motivates them. Don't be a slave to "pretty , Hot sexy...etc" just to get followers. GOODLUCK
Can you do a tutorial on how you use the brushes and which ones you use so we could practice? :0 and maybe include how to use different colors for different skin tones?
fun fact! the reason people in those old edwardian photos don’t seem to have any collar bones or any blemishes on their faces is because they pay people to get rid of them by painting over it! those extremely tiny waists? while they do have corsets underneath, they are still photoshopped! just got reminded of this when you gave the example about beautifying the painting :D
This is really cool, i'm always curious on how people approach semi- realism and i found your ways very simple & understandable! Not to mention that you drew Doyoung from NCT ahhhhhh you're very skilled & talented & I gain a lot of useful tips here thanksss
Your humor entertains me 😂 I once had a phase where I drew Kpop artist but gave up cause my art couldnt capture their beauty that I saw through my eyes. Seeing this video motivates me again. Thanks 👍 and keep it up.
I agree, she even exaggerated her picture, why can’t you do this with ‘ugly’ people? I’m sorry, then I rather not draw in this art style and just continue with normal portraits on paper and paint on canvases because it just sounds very rude.
Well, I think she meant your SEMI-REALISM skills will shine MORE if you draw hot ppl. If your focus is the "subject" though and not the "art style" then it's much better to draw ugly ppl using realism. Since you had to show the intricate details to justify calling them ugly. And since semi-realism doesn't really require that MUCH of details, so it's not that effective to draw ugly people using semi-realism. At the end of the day tho, it's still your choice to draw whoever and whatever you want in any style.
Wow kooleen you really are so good at explaining things at art, that's why everytime you post like, on how to draw a semi realistic anime is so much better, you always aim for the easiest way for people to understand, and its a good thing that I've subscribed to you because you always help us at out problem's at anime things, thank u kooleen for making us a tutorial like this♡
This video really inspired me, and made me put all the practice I’ve had done to use. I’ve never done the whole Pinterest thing, but you worded this video in a way that wasn’t to drawn out or aggressive. Something about the way you say things ur just really relatable. DONT CHANGE
I've been struggling with art block past 4 years now and im in art & animation course in college. I've left drawing due to various reasons but i still do get urges to draw these simi realistic drawing but i couldn't do. Thankfully i found your channel and this video, i got soooooo motivated and inspired to start drawing again thank you so much 🥰
It's the first time that finally someone think like me on draw stuff. I kove draw but I hate to dedicate 10000h to only one thing and then get bored plus never finish it. You got a new fan, sweetie. Btw, I love your style, I hope I can learn some tips from your video :P
Thank you so much! You inspired me to try, and somehow i did really realistic and good painting, i have no idea how, but i never did such a good painting that I liked so much. It's all because of you! I liked video and subscribed. Without you i would never try. Thanks you so much! ❤️
Can you make a video on how to draw bangs when your character's head turns to 3/4 and profile angles (or any angles)? It's hard how to imagine your character's head at certain angles after doing the front view. You'll have yourself trying to figure out how every little piece of hair in a certain direction you happily draw - works. 😣😫😢 How do you draw hair behind layers of hair? The more you turn the head from front angle to 3/4, does the line art for the hair (ones with wild angles) become more vertical or horizontal?
Simple way to draw 3/4 felquillo First take your pencil, put some layers of paper pretending to be locks, turn it little by little (imagining that this is the girl's hair) and well that can give you a more or less precise idea (It can be done mentally in a simple way: V) (I learned this trick while I was playing to make an XD doll)
"never draw ugly people" me: *only draws kpop idols* ✔ edit: Y'all should calm down😭 if u don't find kpop idols beautiful then okay, but not all people have the same views as you. And the fact that you're watching a video where they also drew a kpop idol when you say they're ugly is 🤡
Thank you again!!! I've also recently transitioned from Medibang to CSP. Still struggling to find a brush that I am comfortable with colouring 🤣 thank you for the great content as always Kooleen! Appreciate it!
I agree with many comments on here when they say that "never draw ugly people" is kind of cruel, I admire your work as an artist but that idea is not the best because just increase the social importance of the stereotypes related to beautyness and ugliness in men and women, that also Intensify the discrimination against minorities that have been racialized for decades. Finally this is not hate, I thought just like you some years ago but when I realized my thinkings were not correct and descolonized my ideas, my draws improved a lot too.
But, there's nothing wrong with being ugly? There's nothing wrong with being below average attractiveness yet you make it seem like being ugly is wrong.
@@fanta1602 true and she could just have been joking or sarcasm she didnt mean to say your ugly or dont draw ugly ppl cause they make you worse but then again its your opinion but ye she said it rude to you guys but i didnt even minded it since if i enjoy someone's lessons or whatever ill still enjoy it :/
I always have a hard time maintaining my art style. I can never draw anime-ish style because it always ends up semi-realistic which is a little tiring to render compared to a completely 2d one. But what i struggle with the most id the proportions when drawing semi-realism, I have yet to grasp my own way of doing it, and as much as I want to simplify my drawing, it's so hard that I end up drawing a semi realistic face with weird proportions....
the beginning of the video literally perfectly described the type of style i want to learn LOL. it's so hard to find a video out there that specifically targets this style rather than say, an anime style hehe
I like what I have been taught and learn in this video! It's very useful and helpful!! But I'm not being a crybaby or something but most of people in the comments say that when you said "Don't draw ugly people" make them super extremely sad and I agree with em but thanks for the art tips it's very helpful but maybe don't say ya know that type of jokes Because it's not good and thank you :)
When I'm drawing with pencil and paper, (when I was in 5th grade) my art honors teacher said the lips and eyebrows on people are mostly the same size. And the nose is the same size as in between the eyebrows
When you pointed out that lump on his neck, I was reminded of this video where a doctor saw an interviewee on tv with a lump on the same area and advised her to get that checked as it is an early sign of cancer...
To everyone who said 'never draw ugly people was bad advice' imma just say it- accept the truth people would definitely be offended if you drew them the exact same way they are because almost everyone feels ugly so just draw whoever tf you want ugly and pretty is different for different people and if you wanna make money off art draw what's in demand
i’ve only improved through her vids because it’s so blunt and truthful not beating around the bush to the point you can’t understand single thing. because hey, ur not going to get clout drawing things people don’t like looking at
Have fun drawing the same face and age everyday. Also not everyone has image issues people that love themselves exist. Yes the artist has some good art tips. But if you can't draw the same character as a senior or child than you have a problem. bUt I dOn't wAnt tO drAw fAt! Have fun drawing kids with ridiculous jaws and body proportions. bUt I dOn't wAnt tO drAw wrInklEs! Have fun drawing old people that look 20. Yes, you can draw perfect circles which is very impressive. But you can't draw other shapes.
@@thecloud2750 all they were saying is that people think it’s bad advice because “NOOO everyone is beautiful and that’s terrible to say bc no one is ugly so ur racist and homophobic for saying ugly”
I've been drawing with your guide since then and I i know i improved a bit it's a little improvement but it's still good i just wanna thank you for making this videos you're my fav artist ngl ily ❤️
Sadly ugly people exist. You know not every food is tasty so do humans not everyone is beautiful they might be a good person but it doesnt mean they are beautiful
Koolean keeps exposing my inner desires but that's why I enjoy the tutorial ^^ And lmao the references with good lighting are coincidentally those that I saved too XD
finally trying semi realism/digital painting after drawings nothing but cartoony anime style for years😼i don’t think im ready to just use one layer tho💔
I disagree with the awful advice on never draw "ugly people" beauty is subjective. Plus, if you draw people with more wrinkles, scar and freckles you'll learn to pay more attention to detail and etc! Other than that, her art's amazing! Solid advice too.

Have to disagree about drawing ugly people though, genuinely good drawing skills will shine no matter who you draw.
i agree, i think she meant never use bad pictures as references... Beauty is still relative tho, each person has their opinion

exactly mostly because beauty standards now are just any european-looking feature like small noses, etc
