[Syn7M]

Wow. It's so beautiful. What is the name of music?

[GanGanGirl]

adding the red really does make the black a lot darker and more defiant looking your really talented when did you start drawing

[Jonatan13666]

[QUEEN6941]

@Jonatan13666 she/ he allready said it but i'm going 2 tell u any ways ( im not tring 2 b mean btw) its called Ocarina - Ca'oma

[LittleMissRootBeer26]

[TheTyroGIRL]

[cheterry17]

Song plz? Great work btw

[gr8michi]

Easy i can do that... *sadface*

[KeepSkippin]

You NEED to make more videos.

[sixthfist]

double epic music and drawing :} great job helps alot

[rigoc666]

wats the name of the technique for the shadow???

[THESHOMROM]

You are very good. Why, though, do you use such fast speed filming? It takes you the same amount of time do do the drawing and if you made 2 or 3 videos instead of one fast one, we would learn more and we could also identify the nuance of your technique and be able to apply it in other drawings. The music, too, is nice, but you explaining what and why you are doing things would help us to understand your technique, Please consider these suggestions! Thank you.

[sarahsarah0923]

@THESHOMROM she speeds it up because if you were an artist you would know that even a simple drawing like this may take up to 2+ hours.

[KissMyChristin]

Could you do a video about the tinted graphite pencils? Like how well that work and what you use them for.

[TheValeeli]

Veryyy beautiful. I still have no idea how you can make the feather so shiny and smooth looking and soft?? O_O

[MikaFelynx]

I still cant figure out whether you make it look easy, or you make it look hard :/

[ShortcakesBeautyBuzz]

What pen did you use? To shade ...:D and great job.

[Taima826]

[Artdrawings123]

Great drawing! Where can I download this song? (:

[inuzukadog22]

in the separation of the two feathers did you draw one first and then the other and erased a line to separate, or did you just leave a small amount of space in between to start the second one with?

[julliaH]

@inuzukadog22 indeed there is a line separation between feathers but no special intention. I didn't erased that line.. I just didn't draw between the feathers..

[1999jen]

why do we have to color it red?

[julliaH]

@1999jen you don't have to. I just wanted :)

[sjdp92]

[GodsAnimeAngle1296]

[julliaH]

@GodsAnimeAngle1296 yes, for sure, why not?

[lithdom]

i was about halfway through doing an entire wing with these details (spent like 2 weeks doing it...) when i realized that doing an entire wing would take like a millions years... so i said gf to my project and did seperate feathers, i think ive got his mastered after doing like 80 feathers

[illaf2009]

وااااااااااااااااو

بجد ابدااااااااااع

[TheAbbyShow123]

omg! I watch this video with an amazing drawing of a feather and then i look at mine and think "wow..this suck...' Those feathers u drew were really awesome! I'm so showing this vid to my art teacher.

[julliaH]

@TheAbbyShow123 uuu :D let me know what she said :)

and thanks ;)

[julliaH]

@TrueTriad4Life it wasn't hard at all, it just take time.. to know how to make it.. you just have to have patience ;)

thanks ;)

[mrisitreal]

where did u get the 2b mechanial pencil

[julliaH]

@mrisitreal art supply shop. but you buy the leads separately from the mechanical pencil, and they might be HB, 2B, H or whatever.. 0.3 or 0.5 or 0.7 or 0.9... 

[IboHydes420]

Thanks, i really needed this for my arts assignment... THANK YOU!!!!!!!!

[julliaH]

@IboHydes420 you are welcome :)

[themythriller]

what pen are you using

[julliaH]

@themythriller mechanical pencils and a normal colored pencil.

[MrAdonisWK]

this tutorial will help if one wants to draw leaves too.

[julliaH]

@MrAdonisWK indeed, I haven't thought about this. It also might help you if you want to draw hair :)

[Koejj90]

GREAT JOB!! I love the way you draw, but I don't like the music.. It's a bit irritating.. But I can of course turn the audio off.. :P Keep on going.. :D

[nitemex]

just an advice, how about putting up the music name in the beginning that save alot of trouble for u and other people who tends to skip the credit part in the end

[julliaH]

@nitemex I didn't want to present the song :) but the drawing part.. the song is just a soundtrack.. Anyway, I can't modify anything now

[1super1starr1]

is there a difference between charcoal and graphite pencils if so what are they

[mastersamuss]

@1super1starr1 Charcol is a bit rougher and is MUCH darker. becomes pure black. its also not shiny. when you put a graphite drawing in the light it shines alot and doesnt look very good. Charcol just stays black.

[1997kng]

what is the name of the musik?

[julliaH]

@1997kng The song is: Ca'oma by Ocarina. I mentioned it at the end of the video :)

[eshaa1991]

ur work is awsummm:) *loves*

[julliaH]

@eshaa1991 thanks a lot! ;)

[ashna9854049]

what type of paper is that?

[julliaH]

@ashna9854049 for this drawing I used regular paper. I didn't had special paper in those times. But now I would suggest you the Strathmore Bristol Smooth paper

[xxmuchx]

wow those feathers r so pretty :D and soft

[aonliway]

Amazing work. If I can ask. Why did you use the red?

[julliaH]

@aonliway thanks! hmm.. no particular reason.. this is the colour I had and which texture blended good with the graphite. And I wanted to make some unusual feathers.. they where on a hat..

[danplasma]

phenomenal technique, true skill...amazing...

[tdartista48]

Love the details, nice work.

[RitaRia]

such awesome work

[SneakyFerretz]

[abfvonanna]

wow, it's amazing! i wouldn't even use red colour, but now i would! thanks so much for such a good help!

[crazybytchdawg1]

[LexaNeko]

[scarletpainter]

[julliaH]

[Bestdude231]

=O that is just pure awesome =D

[ManOfSteel2627]

i wouldn't even think of drawing a wing with thoose feathers!! omg that would be like probly a week drawing... and it wouldn't even turn out good!

[juicyapplegirl]

OMG you rock

how long have you been drawing?

[julliaH]

thanks ;)

hmm.. there are 4 years maybe.. but not so intense.. just in the free time.. to relax

[TiaTheArtist]

Wow!^^

I have been drawing birds for about 3 months now,I really enjoy it but I feel that my realism is not really perfect,even though I'm self teaching myself,from what I know XD

This will really help me!^^

Think you could give me some more tips?It would really be appreciated:D

Tia Rioux,Canada

PS-I really need to ask,what's the name of that song?I love it to death!^^

[julliaH]

thanks :)

hmm.. I don't know what to say.. I'm a self teaching too.. It is a very good start. Now try to draw on little portions.. to make details..

The song is: Ca'oma by Ocarina. I mentioned it at the end.

[lleins12]

omg i am sorry but i injoin more the music lol

[noahisgod]

reli reli awesome

[lepszy92]

Thanks for the answer, sorry for problem, and one more time thanks for great tutorial...

Peace!

[julliaH]

there's no problem :) welcome and anytime ;)

[lepszy92]

One question...

I know you show what you use, but

I always wonder how you receive the perfect dark...with what? (This must be also precise)

Thx for great tutorial

HARE!

[julliaH]

Perfect dark? With graphite pencils is always harder, but I made it here with a 2B mechanical pencil. As a tip: u can add a 8B or 9B (the darkest degree that u have) and then detail with a 2B mechanical pencil ;) This is how I do and obtain best results.

And thanks for the fav ;) I'm glad u like it. Hope will help u :)

[lepszy92]

Great...I add it to fav, and maybe someday i use it ,thx

Peace!

[gianhet]

wow!!

really beautiful!

thx :)

[Snowyness]

[julliaH]

yep.. might be.. U can use the same technique ;)
