How to draw organic shapes: Cylinders ( Tutorial )

Hey folks, it's been a while since we did a tutorial/teaching video so let's talk about organic shapes and organic cylinders.

The thumbnail is a good example on what cursed man made horrors you can make when you master these fundamentals

[@robertlkiss]

Finally, someone who understands!

[@elzaminaaa]

This is EXACTLYYYY what I needed. I’d been searching for hours on how to draw these snake-like cylinders in perspective. Thank you!

[@robertlkiss]

Happy you found what you were looking for :)

[@paveldkohout]

Loved the thumbnail hahahaha

[@robertlkiss]

Thanks! :)

[@Meowch3]

Judging by the name, a fellow Hungarian?! :)
This is the best tutorial on how to draw organic shapes that I've ever seen. Nobody else gives you clear guidance on how to draw those ellipses inside, they just leave you in the dust about it.

[@robertlkiss]

Yes indeed, well type of it anyways :)
And thanks i'm glad you find it useful! It is a bit of a struggle explaining ellipses, they are always hard no matter what.

[@siasleopard2668]

You're an amazing teacher . Thank you . This really helped me fuguee things out

[@robertlkiss]

I'll very happy to read this!

[@weez6575]

LMAO that intro made me spit out my coffee! Thanks for another amazing video!

[@robertlkiss]

Glad you liked it ^_^

[@travisnguyen1475]

Thank Robert

[@oresarjo8315]

Thank you

Would you ever consider making an industrial design sketching course? I would be very interested if you did!

[@robertlkiss]

I have a serious on industrial design fundamentals. Have you watched that?

[@KillerTacos54]

That thumbnail is nightmare fuel 😅

[@robertlkiss]

You are welcome!

Is there an explanation as to why the minor axis always a tangent to the guide line?

[@robertlkiss]

No idea that is how I taught, never thought abut asking why

[@Meowch3]

It is because the minor axis is also always the normal of an ellipse** (a normal is a line that is perpendicular to an object). Looking at an ellipse in a 2d flat way with zero perspective, the minor axis is a line dividing the ellipse exactly in half. But looking at it in a 3d way, the minor axis is actually a perpendicular line skewering the ellipse. That skewer is like the axel of a wheel, and is actually your guide line, only it's not straight because we've chosen to bend it in all sorts of ways! Being bent, you're forced to draw tangent to it when drawing its cross section, an ellipse.
**Technically, true in real life, but not on our flat piece of paper because it introduces distortion. On paper, the normal and minor axis of an ellipse will only coincide at the center of vision. But since it's a good enough approximation when drawing inside the cone of vision, and since almost all artists, including Scott Robertson, ignore this fact, we'll ignore it too.

Have you visited Burger's Zoo? You'll like it.

[@robertlkiss]

Uhm, is there a Burger's Zoo in the Netherlands?

[@Trazynn]

Yes, in Arnhem. It's not a typical zoo, it has giant biospheres.

[@robertlkiss]

@@Trazynn Aliright that is on ym to visit list next time I'm in Arnhem.

[@ribs-of-an-eye1]

16:07 you mean major axis

[@robertlkiss]

Yes I do mean that.
