10 minute drawing techniques Episode 01

[DrZao]

I just drew the best goddamn circle in my life.

You're doing god's work, sir.

[PipePlazaStudios]

Just to let you know, these videos are always mentioned in drawing threads on 4chan, you're considered one of the best teachers there.

[lalalameification]

SOOOOO HELPFUL FOR ART WORK IN SCHOOL!!!!Thanx soooo much dude!

[effrin999]

I didnt know but i sat in glenns class with a Burne Hogarth book and it didnt go down well.He humiliated me but seeing him go i realised the gravity of my error

[MrGeary08]

Your quite a good teacher. Do you teach drawing?

[heroicmasterchief]

Wow you are like phrometeus from mythology. I am just starting but this is unvaluable.

[mkysxn1]

thnku thnku sir sooooooooooooooo much!!!!!!!!!! luv yaa

[THENoobaNoob]

sorry to your mentor. why?

[SwordXEvil]

i've been drawing for years and this is very helpful. thank you

[jeratak]

xie xie! very helpful guide. :D

[ForwardIntent]

Shit, I learned more useful stuff from this video than an entire college semester of Basic Drawing from a teacher that pretends to know how to draw.

[DeadJames]

Good lesson. Thanks for making this!

[sweetstrawberries88]

great explanations, thanks!

[fhdwagads]

your videos are amazing!  Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

[chezaswulf]

everything is expensive. boo

[ubersuperbatman]

You are the best! You break it down for us new artists to the point where we feel confident understanding the techniques needed to get the picture in our heads onto the paper. Thank You and please post some more videos.

[charlesyeatman]

hey moatdd, i was wondering what college you went to? did you take all art classes?

[miltoncombatkid]

this program is called autodesk sketchbook pro

[DiscoTony]

I am not an artist by any means, but I took a figure drawing class from Glenn Vilppu when I was at UCLA, and he is simply God. I, too, thought this was pencil drawing and I think this should be stated. Does anyone have any good pencil/figure drawing videos? And, if you're reading, Glenn, thanks for getting this screenwriter thinking like an artist. :) GO BRUINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!

[Brandob971]

I wish these vids would say digital drawing, i thought it was pencil drawing at first

[lucasjensen1]

8:58 minuts...

[fishy2me]

great tip.

[LevitskiSRGE]

I think it's kind of unsecure way to draw. Means you are unsecure by drawing. Its alright to do this sometimes, but not for every stroke! Also its enough to make the first point and just imagin the second one by holding the pen over it.

[ActiveStorage]

it depends on what are u drawing. industrial design always use this "point to point" technique because they require high precision drawings

[moatddtutorials]

That maeks me a very sad panda

[memorizeproverbs]

@moatddtutorials what software do you use

[braven1991]

i find em helpful..

[chicolarva]

I´ve been watching your tutorials all day... They´re clear and very helpful.

Thanks, man!

[pacTL4ever]

ooooo man we know that..... but nice bro

[1Monkeyfilms]

i hack strocks out

[Draconis888]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. My linework has always looked aweful and I've always wanted to learn how to get that smooth 'look' many artists have.

[LevitskiSRGE]

maybe by drawing just one-strait line instead of hundreds))

[jukeboxzero]

very helpful

must subscribe

[eviltube1111]

Honestly, out of all videos on Youtube on learning drawing (I've watched dozens) this is the first video I've found that actually shows me how to do the basics. Kudos to you, sir.

[NobleValerian]

Yeah... I'm finding the expert village and eHow videos seem to dominate when you're searching, but they also seem to be real vague and kind of rushed... I'm truyl grateful someone is taking the time to be thorough and give attention to the minor details... I actually heard someone say something like... "And you got to do the stuff, so everything is... you know, the stuff is better"... I mean, who is learning from dialogue like that... moatddtutorials does it right, I think...

[Supernerd98]

what program are you using?

[minombreoriginal]

Autodesk SketchBook Pro

[bmworgii]

seeing as all your videos are of nearly naked chicks... id say... you know nothing about drawing... :}

[bmworgii]

true, i ment i dont watch barely naked girls on youtube, that doesnt have much to do with drawing, doesnt it?

[missraw]

That logic is the lowest. What is the difference between watching a video of someone drawing and practicing? Surely you can do those two at the same time. Speaking of which, I wonder why you watched this video in the first place. Oh let me guess... it was an accident and you clicked on it by curiosity?

[zuppah]

really helpful! gonna practice it and make my sketches look so much cleaner ^^

[jayscott49]

Glenn Vilpu! from Cal Arts! i watched your 2nd tutorial first and thought, 'boy, this guy would really dig Glen Vilpu!' Glen was the reason EVERYBODY in the program at Cal Arts could draw at a certain level academically. that you studied with him makes perfect sense, and you're an excellent teacher yourself.

[DA3XT3RM1NAT0R]

wow man thanks really helped me alot..really really alot..i gave u five stars and subbed to u thnx man!

[Roaljelly]

Hi please send me a message^ how do you draw that nice on the computer? i can draw on paper.. But when i draw on computer its so bad.. is it the mouse or program or just skillz :P?

[mattmit]

You need a graphics tablet, like a wacom intuous or cintiq.

[gwincheese]

what program are u using??? that is so cool!

[AtheThird]

This Point to Point thing really works! thanx!

[kurowkitsune12]

This is so good! You're a great teacher!

[DamuEmran]

wow thats great I'm going to use that circle tech soon. Inshallah

[Lovedoctersar]

Yeah drawing with the arms makes for a lot of clean diversity from wrist drawing.

[Noradne]

This is really a great tutorial. Although I draw for a long time there are still some helpful things. And you can explain the things very good so you don't get bored while watching.

[blingblingonemillion]

the first thing u drew was awsome lol the road looking one after u mentioned the feeling part ur good =D

[clink89]

Very interesting technique. Definitely going to try it.

[templar555]

thanks for this intersting tutorial :D

[himerius2007]

guess this is Alias sketchbook pro? never used it, could look interessting.

[moatddtutorials]

Yup, it's sketchbook pro. I like it because the tools feel nice (smooth pencil, good response) and because the interface is unobtrusive (I don't need a keyboard and there aren't a bazillion floating onscreen gadgets).

[RocMegamanX]

How much does Sketchbook pro cost. And which did you use with this: Mouse or tablet?

[moatddtutorials]

You can buy it as a direct download from Autodesk for $179.00 USD (there are versions for both PC and Mac and it functions the same on both)

BUT... if you're a student and you have your student ID you can get it from Studica for $80!

All of these episodes are performed on a Wacom Cintiq interactive tablet display. It's a flat panel LCD with an integrated active digitizer.

[peterthepoet]

Not sure I will ever be able to draw but find your tutorials very interesting. Thanks!

[softocean]

this is very useful to me -thanks :) I've been struggling with line quality for a while now.

[moatddtutorials]

Glad I could help! The next toughest thing is being able to remember to use Point-To-Point with each line! :D

[whitecypher]

what program is this? please pm me
