    I never even attempted free-hand figure drawing before coming across this video. I definitely surprised myself and it didn't look half bad! Thank you for sharing this technique, it was a real joy to do!

    For those who did not understand:
    Step 1: Draw the dots.
    Step 2: Draw the sketch.
    And viola you are a certified artist.

    I’m still confused about the dots. I feel like I’ll end up doing it wrong.

    thank you so much for these tips, Scottie! I remembered another cool artist I look up to use these tips for his approach to ink sketching and your guide has been a wonderful help to keep in mind! It’s a fun approach that’s also applicable to other subject matters as well, Hope I can improve my ink drawing abilities so I can continue enjoying the process more freely and share my love for drawing with others too!

    @timotheuspeter734 Před 8 měsíci +3

    That was really helpful, thank you.
    One problem I tend to have is that without the security of line such as you display here, it is still difficult to get some satisfying results, especially at such sketch-outlines.

    @philipwilliams6307 Před 2 měsíci

    This was brilliant, I'm sketching again after 16 years and to say I'm rusty would be an understatement.
    Today we were tasked with sketching a live model, and boy was I struggling to figure out how to best capture his proportions.
    I'll definitely be trying to develop using your technique as it seems it'll be very useful, especially with enough practice.

    Not counting your intro you drew this man within 4 minutes. I am so glad I came across your video. This is the kind of people drawing I'd like to get better at completing. I've been trying to include all the details thinking that would make the figure recognizable, but by watching your video I should include fewer details and stick to a more basic drawing as you show here. You make it look soo easy, and I thank you for sharing. You've given me hope that I can learn your style for my personal use.

    • @SketchingScottie

    Super tutorials. I've been taking a figure drawing class, and was taught the traditional approach of the stick figure and the bone structure. Spending 10 minutes learning your 4 dots is worth 3 months of classes I had. The light color washes at the end are very nice too. FWIW I prefer using a fountain pen to get some variations in the lines instead of using a marker. In any case, I subscribed and have to remember to check your tutorials often. I learn a lot for sure.

    @sdcasbah Před 5 měsíci

    This is great. I am learning that proportion is so key. It can really free up your creativity in a way. I understand the method for figure standing up. I am struggling a bit with the sitting down. From what I understand it's head to knees, knees to feet that determine spacing? So any angle really from head to knee determines the directionality of the lines. I think I may have just answered my own question 😂
