      Because your actual drawing skills aren't as good as her "DON'T"

      Kev27RS no art is good or bad, she’s just giving tips on realism, there’s nothing wrong with the “don’t” side, if you think that’s nice and that’s how you draw, that’s perfectly fine and valid, no one should be forced to change their style

    • @jasminejohnson7710
      @jasminejohnson7710 5 лет назад +19

      ‍ that’s ridiculous, I’m just saying it’s fine to draw on the don’t side, what does that have to do with my skills?

    • @jasminejohnson7710
      @jasminejohnson7710 5 лет назад +20

      hell bumhole how am I stupid? Practice makes perfect, so if someone does the don’t side they shouldn’t be shamed, they should be encouraged, and it’s completely fine if that’s their style

  • @ThisafunnyUsername
    @ThisafunnyUsername 5 лет назад +472

    Actually, it isn’t AS hard as you may think. Of course, drawing realistically takes much time and practice but if you don’t overthink it, it’s actually much simpler if you just remember the basics and don’t get overwhelmed or jealous by someone who as been drawing like that for years. Take your time and practice a lot💝 EDIT: I’m glad to know that I’ve managed to motivate so many people!💗

    I can’t tell you how much I love your work! Even having been to art school, I still felt like I learned something from this video! It’s the perfect blend of a ‘speed-thru’ and a ‘talk-thru’! I’m a very impatient tutorial watcher, and generally fast forward thru most vids for a glimpse at the beginning, middle and end to get the basic idea. But you impressed me when I realized I had just watched all 15 minutes and still wanted more! I am now a subscriber and WILL be watching all your tutorials!
    There just aren’t many people who have the talent and skills AND the ability to share their creative process who ALSO have the personality to be able to comfortably narrate exactly what you are doing in each step of the piece, as its being done in speed-thru for us, without ever becoming repetitive or obnoxious!

Prior to watching this I had no idea how realistic they could be. Just implementing the simple instruction on what to do (and not do) with layering and blending has produced amazing results and a lot of comments like "I thought it was a photo". Thank you again.

      You dont need to use expensive pencils. I have managed to do really good portraits with whs coloured pencils and white pastel pencil. when i do the skin and to get the blend i put white down first then build skin tone, then when i have skin tone built up, i use the white pastel and lightly press to blend a bit more. Works wonders when you dont have access to expensive pencils.

      @nickiratliff84 6 лет назад +20

      MoonlightFans you're correct... Just common sense really.. Realistic or not it's still based off basic anatomy. How can you draw a non-realistic eye if you don't have an understanding of drawing a realistic eye 😂

    • @nickiratliff84
      @nickiratliff84 6 лет назад +7

      Igtdja but Moonlight wasn't saying the commentor was wrong, just suggesting that in non realism you still need an understanding in realism so Kirtsy's video is fine. To draw a cartoon eye you kinda have to know anatomy and what a real eye looks like.

    • @mlaidukaitis
      @mlaidukaitis 6 лет назад +11

      I see your point since I draw realism and anime style, but you can kind of tell by the thumbnail that it's realism we're looking at. I was more bothered by the "a eye" instead of "an eye" haha. ;)

    Naturally, i already knew how to draw but i needed to learn this type of coloring. Im so tired of drawing using only pencils and tech pens. Thank you for your tutorial.

    Hi Kirsty. I learned a lot on your videos. But I'm only using one pencil but I guess it will work for me. Thanks a lot!
