heheheh I'm actually posting a character design video this week! in the meantime you can check out my last one hehe ruclips.net/video/qTIF986bmGc/видео.html
especially loved your explanation about the angles/posture of Saul and Bill’s faces in those sheets! that narrative relevance makes me feel so immersed in their story. epic points made all throughout this video! ⭐️🍓🫐
I agree with using references, but also I think even just making the face yourself while drawing the expression can really help...at least for me. I love the difference in Saul's and Bill's personalities (like a sweet Strawberry and a tart blueberry). Expressions are super fun and I love the way you use yourself as a reference for expression. Another thing that I think helps with expressions in how high or low eyebrows go and how open or closed the eyes are. My style heavily relies on the shape language of the eyes and eyebrows. This was a very helpful video I didn't even think to use a reference for expressions. Hope you have a fabulous week Shay.❤
I'm so glad you made this video !! I absolutely loved your character sheet of Saul, drawing interesting expressions while keeping a consistant face is something i struggle so much with 😄
This video is really helpful!! I swear, every time I watch one of your videos, I just get more and more inspired to make tons of art!! I don’t think I’ve ever been more excited about my art journey than when I started following you!!😄
I love how well you explain everything! especially when you talk about drawing your own characters you made and their expressions! definitely gonna be coming back to this video for when I draw my own characters eventually 💞💞💞
I really can't begin to explain how much discovering your channel has helped me, especially this video. I struggled so bad with head angles but the break down you showed has mad it so much easier for me to sketch stress free. Keep up the amazing work, I'm excited for when the video where you go more into detail of your original story comes out :>
I've been doing lots of figure studies from the Line Of Action website and avoiding the expressions studies because I am very bad at noses and eyes and such. But I really should give it a go, since my figures are starting to look better since I started! 😊 I'm so proud of myself for trying new things
The bit you say about same characters constantly looking different is so real. I've only just started arting and I find my biggest challenge is I can draw the same face and it'll look different every time, and sometimes I think "wow this look great" and sometimes "this looks like a 5 yr old drew it", and I think I'm just not experienced enough atm to understand WHY they look so different. It's really frustrating. I also just don't understand how anyone can draw without reference. I can't seem to imagine or picture any sort of expression or pose. Like I in theory know what a dejected person would look like, but I can't imagine it in my mind so I can't put it to paper, and if I try it's just messy. So then I get an idea and have to spend HOURS looking up a reference that vaguely looks like what I'm thinking of. :/
OMG ur the first artist I’ve seen on yt that actually say every face looks like a totally different person when drawing different expressions…it’s nice to hear, I’m not crazy lol…
just recently found your channel and have just fallen in love with your content! i always use your videos to listen to whenever im working. im def burning out from being in art school for animation (two more years to go ...) but your vids are very refreshing.
This video really just made me get my dusty drawing tablet out and draw after some time :")) The way you draw expressions feels really lively and the character's personality truly shines through! Guess it's time to get to practising facial expressions, too. Thank you for all you do :D
i just found your channel last week but i love it! love listening to your videos while im working on homework and my own art projects! always leaves me feeling inspired keep up the good work
I really needed this, ever since I found your channel I’ve loved your style and content!! ❤ please if you have the time in the future say what brushes you use?
AHHHHHH NEW VIDEOOOO I SO HAPPYYYYYY 1:10 oh wow that's very interesting, i've never seen it be done like that 1:51 agggggggg i love ur art smmmm😭 4:29 ahg taxes XDDDdd 6:13 WHOLE. I KNOW OF THAT ARTIST AGGGGG 6:43 omggggggggggggg he's my faaavvv 😭😭😭😭 7:23 i love straberry saul smmm 7:56 I LOVE WHEN U TALK ABOUT HIM AHH 8:18 AH YESSS (idk to much about him so im excited >:]) 9:20 BAHAHAH YES JUST YES 9:34 OMG OMG I AM FREAING OUT YES I'M SO EXCITEDDDD OMG I NEED TO DO FANART OF THEM SOON 10:07 BAHAHA GOD DAMN YES omg i just had an idea! it would be so cool if u made an "art of shay" or like "art of skecthes of shay " book! that would be so cool, and like it can have skecthes, finished art, and it would be an inspiration for a lot of people (but it's just an idea :])
I loved watching this and seeing who you personally studied from for your facial features and everything. I was also wandering if you ever livestream anywhere or if you were possibly going to look into getting a Patreon?? I would love to support you and watch any live stream you would put on~
Wake up folks. Shay has posted. You have no idea how happy your videos make me!! I live in India and if you were here i would call you didi (older sister , term of endearment)
Can u do some videos on ur face drawing art style ur way of drawing face is really cool like it’s between the cartoon and the realistic I’ll be happy if u so one !
Great advice, Nothing wrong with the last message but I’d be careful because the internet is infamous in many cases of taking things too far… If one isn’t careful enough when telling people how to critique other’s work, it might give some people carte blanche to harass a complete stranger who is just doing something they like. to be CLEAR, you are very nice Art ytuber, and you do not model any type of toxic behavior on your audience. the important thing is that both parties can respect one another’s input and develop better, socially conscious ideas for their own work in future.
this video was helpful, I have problems showing my feelings through face or body irl so mostly, my art is neutral, but this helped me, thank you hay ^^ I just got curious about how you learned anatomy / to render your drawings as you do.... you're like my top inspiration at the moment, and I love the way you draw, so this would be really interesting
Uuu loved this!!! >:D i've always adored how you can make your characters so Expressive!!! ALSO can't wait for Bill's video!!!!! SUPER interested on how he'll be since we dont really know muchhhhh Ab him yet >:] 🙏🙏
I like your style a lot; specially the way you paint, and I was really trying to get better at drawing faces with more similar characteristics with the references and better expressions, so this was perfect for me :). I was wondering, do you have a pinterest account?
Idk if it’s just me but when I draw expressions on my characters I sorta make the same expression as I draw the characters. Idk man I’m just weird lolll
hi I have a technical question for anybody that knows the answer! Im making my first bigger art project, a painted animation and I would love to post it on RUclips in the end. however, how do you protect your art from theft? I've never really uploaded much art on the internet, and I wouldn't like to lose the rights to my first baby project. any tips?

What brushes did you use in your video?
Expressions are definitely what I’m trying to tackle next,been working a bit on proportions but I’m so ready to draw oc’s I’m jumping ahead of myself😭
you got this!!
I like your style a lot; specially the way you paint, and I was really trying to get better at drawing faces with more similar characteristics with the references and better expressions, so this was perfect for me :).
I was wondering, do you have a pinterest account?
I don't have a public one, no! I might me looking into sharing my boards more in the future video if you are interested!
@@sketchesofshay Oh, it will be pretty interesting, thanks for responding, anyway :)
Idk if it’s just me but when I draw expressions on my characters I sorta make the same expression as I draw the characters. Idk man I’m just weird lolll
i do the same thing!! especially when I am drawing angry faces lol
May I ask what brush do you tend to use? :0
Could you possible give a tutorial on how you draw your body’s, as I LOVE your male drawings and I have no idea on how to draw them 😅
I made a video about anatomy! ruclips.net/video/3nXjGbICyNU/видео.html
Do you have a pinterest with some of these references saved? I’d love to try my hand at them while I watch/follow along!
I unfortunately do not :( I played the "drawing whatever pops up on my pinterest page" game lol
hi I have a technical question for anybody that knows the answer!
