    How was my Dora impression /10?

    That first one I had so much trouble noticing weirdly enough. I thought it was a curve ball (I've also been stuck for a few years now on not being able to notice what's off in drawings despite having that "it looks off" feeling). Thanks so much for this!

  • @MrHighIQ
    @MrHighIQ Před 22 dny +6

    This is probably the best video for intermediate artist ive ever seen explaining with concepts and showing the before and after to really train your mind to see how big of a difference the correction makes it’s perfect for someone who understands the basics and is ready to learn at the next level well done!

  • @Recruit-if4xy

    I think this would be a great idea for your shorts/reels. A nice quick heads-up for everyone, when you find a unique mistake while you're drawing.

  • @immanuel7925
    @immanuel7925 Před 22 dny +7

    Thank you so much for making this. Seriously, I'll be refering to this as a test for all my faces from now on, because some of these are so detailed and precise. Like many say, half the work of making art is editing.

    I usually don’t like riddles & puzzles. 😌 I just like information and answers. 🤩🥳 But this is actually a really fun game! Thanks! And I can’t stand suspense when I’m learning and you weren’t a jerk at all about teaching. 😎 Just straight facts! Bless you, Josh! 💪🏽

    • @ergojosh

    Keeping features in perspective is so hard!!! It's something I'm trying so hard to recognize in my own work more. Man, even just recognizing where the mistakes are is such a skill on its own.

    What is the app you used for the skull references?
    It looks very helpful.

  • @tarapogancev
    @tarapogancev Před 22 dny

    Great video! I was able to notice maybe 50% of the mistakes, but you made them so subtle, some of which I'd easily call an artistic style until you showed the correct version! :) Amazing, it'd be great to see something similar with different angles of the face!

      On a side note I noticed 6/8 but regardless am guilty of them all and to this day often discard the far nostril 😅

  • @charles.2001
    @charles.2001 Před 21 dnem

    I do traditional art but draw almost all my characters in front view and sometimes side view. I rarely draw 3/4 view because I am not comfortable with it. I don't use references because I like to use my imagination when I draw and I think references make it boring. One of my main art struggles also has been identifying the direction of the light source and how to color and shade shadows and highlights on the face and body of the character.

  • @losersmoser
    @losersmoser Před 22 dny

    A big mistake I would always make when I was starting out was the brow bone, and the structure around the eye (especially when the head isn't straight on). I would be interested in seeing how you tackle skin colour, as that's something I still struggle with.

  • @KuroSy
    @KuroSy Před 22 dny

    This video is gold! those mistakes are usually what keep artists back from looking professional! I know something myself, i still do a lot of them and correcting faces is hard as hell for me and sometimes i just fail >.< and start fresh
    One tip i would love to add is to pause and come back to a drawing after a hour or so, to have a fresh first-impact and see more imperfections.

    • @ergojosh
      @ergojosh  Před 22 dny +1

      Yeah I second this. Returning after taking a break is huge. You can take it to the next level by doing @samdoesart’s mobile phone tip

  • @MS-ne6ld
    @MS-ne6ld Před 19 dny

    This is such a great video!
    One more common mistake that I find myself making *all. the. time* is drawing eyes too far apart. This one is also most prevalent it 3/4 view bc the perspective distortions make it so hard
    I'd argue it's present in your 3rd study as well, actually - the eye closest to the viewer sat just a bit too far from the nose imo. It also looked a bit like en face view of the eye than 3/4 view to me (another thing I do all the time, falls under "incorrect perspective" I'd say)

    Thanks for the video! what app are you using for the anatomy references?

  • @TheKylebear
    @TheKylebear Před 22 dny

    I find most people don't draw fuller lips aften and I mean those of darker variety that have very beautiful features. I find all have cool unique features 👍

  • @Hoju3942
    @Hoju3942 Před 16 dny

    Lots of great advice but number 4 is a personal preference, not a mistake. In fact, I find the opposite much, MUCH more attractive to my personal tastes. I admit that I also draw much more stylized characters than you do, but that doesn't make either nose/mouth/chin proportion a mistake. Everything else though, absolutely spot on.

      If you're watching a video on intermediate art skills, then there's no way you're so dumb as to not realize they're the same skills. Digital allows you to access more tools with less supplies, and fine-tune lines you already made. You still have to have the skill to *notice what's wrong with the lines in the 1st place* and *fix them to look proper.* Yanno, the whole point of the video.
