Figure Drawing: How To Find The Weight

[thiessen35]

drawing straight lines and pointing out weight didn't really help. Can you do like a actual drawing from memory. I find when I do my figures from memory they lack weight.

OMG, I *GET* it! Finally! Thank you. Such as simple concept, but the way every other tutorial has explained it makes it unfathomable. OF COURSE it would have to do with a point on the head, since your head and eyes govern so much of your coordination and balance. DUH. Seems so obvious now. :D

How do u find the weight using the nose? The nose is smth we can move around without rly breaking the balance isnt it?

[Olecranon89]

Actually, these are some of his earliest videos that he had on Youtube, before he released the full length ones. They're still great though, I'm glad Sheldon is putting them back up!

[sheldonsartacademy]

@Olecranon89 Yes These are the original videos. I am sorry for being MIA. It has been very busy with 2 colleges as well as our school and freelance. We will be around more and also want to start some new Videos. Maybe some demo versions. What do you all think? I would love some suggestions. Take care and talk soon Sheldon

@sheldonsartacademy

A video on drawing animals would be awesome. Perhaps something on vehicles or architecture would also be great.
