[philockalips]

@pumbky he is a drawing teacher...get his dvds if you dont believe... :)

[pumbky]

your pictures are good. but in your videos i cant really see a difference between the beginning and the end. so its hard to believe you have drawn this pictures:(

[MrRIZTIZ]

I need to know how you got the hair like that -- i am currently drawing something very similar (figure drawing) and i need the "hair" technique =D thnx

[dannyassassin96]

HE MUST HAVE A REALLY HARD EDGE XD

[Zpartan117John]

I hate when the top comment is a reply.

Nice drawing btw.

[xBrittasaur]

do you know what to use to keep pencil from smudging after being done? i think its some sort of spray..

[thyname86]

@xBrittasaur It's called spray fixitive. It does have a habit of darkening your values after you spray it. Also, do it outside. It is plastic, do not breathe it in

[TheSindhu09]

I watched so many pictures but ... this one is mind blowing ...i love this so much ...

[dischodave]

Man, her hair so well drawn. It looks almost like you stuck real hair onto the page and shaped her hair using that. Incredible.

[andrea07296]

I draw ugly compared to you! :D

[qMp888]

[amino666]

[Excuseify]

Is Owen Wilson actually an artist that posts pod casts under an alter-ego?

[lorenzolombino85]

spettacolare

[G0th4ki]

very impressive

[AnAmericanIdiot05]

11 year olds that cant spell need to get off youtube and go to school.

Thanks for the video, btw, it... um, makes me pretty jealous. But we learn as we go :]

[chemoman1]

@lacrimoxis La práctica hace al maestro. Y también como dicen, no hay buenos artistas, solo artistas malos que jamás se rindieron(esa se aplica a en especial a mi..aunque aún soy malo haha)

[AntonioE07]

Hello. Is this graphite or charcoal you used for this drawing? Thank you.

[kinomoto0005]

the hair is a masterpiece

[teto12ify]

is this girl real cause she is pretty darn cute

[Exodus190]

Everything is possible to do with a pencil.Very nice portrait.

[danathebestever]

[k0nfekt]

THIS should have 400 milion views not any other stupid video !

[Miquelpla]

interesante

[MrArty303]

[Stargirly01]

[najeebulhassan]

incradabile



[najeebulhassan]

incradabile



[MrsNickJonasL]

im so amazed about the hair, it's so realistic i wanna touch it, lol :)

[DragOzze]

watching your vids I understood the diff in drawing with head and drawing with hearth / feel w/e u want to call it. You seem to draw with your head, you think about every line you take ;o

[FlankerVT]

amazing, you are a greaat artist.

[sammyqt29]

it takes u 4 HOURS to do tht??? i know its good an all but im 11 n am very close to tht good n it takes me bout 15 mins to do tht...no offence

[Uhohninjas]

@sammyqt29 You sound very much like a liar to me...

[sammyqt29]

@Uhohninjas n every one else tht replyed to me, who r u to tell me tht i am wrong n a liar because u dont know me, never ment to say anything tht offensive n how would it make me more incredible of n artist if i didnt spell or use the correct grammer (uh its text tlk) n i hve every wright to express my opinion n just because u cant do it doesnt mean no one else can

[Uhohninjas]

@sammyqt29 Yea, you are still a liar. You cannot do that in 15 minutes. You are lying.

[sammyqt29]

@Uhohninjas fine call me wht u want. i dont care. im just gonna be the mature one n leave without saying anything i really want to right now n so wht if i exaggerated a little, but it def wouldnt take me more then 1 hour n i said tht it wouldnt be as good considering im not as old or experienced as the person who drew tht so really, grow up n forget about it

[sydtastic31091]

@sammyqt29 Sounds like someone thinks a little too highly of himself. If you're actually that good, post some of your work. Because to be honest, you don't seem very credible, especially when you can't even spell or use correct grammar.

[josheaves15]

@sammyqt29 WROOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGG

[tuananh1107]

@sammyqt29 want a shit young boy ?

[13Isabel13]

@sammyqt29 LOL dude, seriously, thats impossible. its not about the time you take to do that..its amazing and very realistic. it takes time to do something like that. no offense but i doubt you can do that in four hours and i know you can not do that in 15 mins.

[gjmel1]

@sammyqt29 the more time you put in your art the better you get out and im guilty of wanting to hurry up and start my next picture but real artist take there time and dont be rude

[sparck93]

Guau Hermosa Mujer :D

[madscientist90]

I don't know why, but I'm waiting for her to blink! xD

Great tips, Matthew, thank you very much. :) Have a great day.

[FinalBloodAct]

This is useful, but it's discouraging that I'm no way near this good. I know practice makes perfect, but... *stares*

[batgirl1415]

I'm actually expecting the drawing to blink and turn it's head to me.....

[IMakeLSD]

@batgirl1415

Well sir you must have been doing drugs.

[VIVIDVTV]

[supermanuman95]

@taruky15people would understand u if u speak in english

[azzmoran]

Hey matt, this video and the portrait in it are great, really fantastic.

I was wondering though, if you could do one of these drawing from scratch, maybe in like a speeded-up video, showing it from the earliest to latest steps? I think that would be great too.

Thanks!

[dpoole009]

[Nostalgeek]

[Maeriix3]

What kind of pencil do you use?

[SieghartzBR]

so am I and I think the hair is the hardest to draw

[9987ifY]

I just have problems with the hair1

[13DeeCee]

I have problems with Hair and shadings....I need big time Help..

[ebflip26]

that girl is very beautiful!

[trevonlang1993]

What type of Pencil your using.?

[PiratesLifeForMeeee]

:D I do eyes really good! XD

[TokioHotel4Ever36]

heu................ ok.

[diepset]

nose and the shape of the eye is hard for me .. it always looks like an alien at the end .. :[ my friend asked me to draw a picture for her and i gave it to her without any eyes

[poklar]

Lol! I've always had a problem with drawing one eye the same as the other one. Anything symmetrical is basically a problem for me in terms of drawing.

[keeganmon]

5 inches... now thats precise

[Deanchester16]

The bridge of the nose and the eyebrows are the most difficult for me.

And wrinkles.

[Grindeffect]

you are goooood!!!

[cash78626]

thats smart!

[TheStiftehalter]

for this Vid...xD

[TheStiftehalter]

thank U !

[gshs1301]

DUDE got any tips on how to draw hair because thats something i find hard to do

[TheEgyptianOne]

my weakness is eys and eye lashes i think theas r the toughest when ur drawing a person

[viento00]

nostrils

[apochrypia]

my weakness are the lips and a bunch of shadowing. XD

[Grindeffect]

hmm yes , i think everything is very hard , i mean the mouth , the eyes and the nose + the hair ^^

i think ears are not so difficult :P

[rarezas1959]

teeth is super hard same as the mouth

[ThexDoctorsxLie]

Agreed.

[Deanchester16]

bridge of nose for me. and eyebrows.

[evaant14]

wooooooooooooooow thats wat i have 2 say

[atndybeach]

You should do a vid on how to sketch from a Photo

[Lamezilla]

That's not a skill that an artist needs to develop. Drawing from life will greatly improve your observation skills and allow you to make a much more honest rendering of what you see.

[XGangstaxHannieX]

wow

[kcsnipes80]

looks kinda like michelle white, and he has a ray lago style, i like it

[mightsnipe]

you wear glasses XD

[tahitianflower]

fantastic talent! Excellent! ;)

[wakeboardingchica]

It's great.

Do you use a charcoal pencil?

[mackleeen]

for the drawing in the video, looks like not,, and for drawing everyday... yes off course...

[lunaumi42]

i have a quick question how do u draw the hair?
