My Drawing of Tyler Oakley

[miroblog]

wow.. 

[jstevens428]

@googooii I draw it in pencil before I start filming because the pencil doesnt show up very well on camera anyway, and it takes way too long to do the pencil and comfortably film while keeping the paper in one spot like I try to do when I do the ink.

[auzio]

You cut stencils bro?

[isisdazs]

...wow. fantastic! did the ink catch on your hand while you were blocking in his shirt?

[iloveyou91]

of course its in pencil first.. all artists do that..what do you think they just pullit out of their ass? alot of it is technique but skill is also involved

[eriesilence1]

What is the song?!?!

[jstevens428]

@eriesilence1 Rose of the devil's garden- Tiger Army

[Chiedere27]

@googooii You're an idiot. All artists do that.

[allieSunl]

what kind of marker is that?

[jstevens428]

@allieSunl it's a Micron art pen

[allieSunl]

@jstevens428 thanks =)

[AmBErNiNJa]

@jstevens428 i love those pens, just sayin =]

[hannahtheincredible]

Wow, this is really incredibly good. Way to go. :)

[isabelledarling]

this is amazingly cool. reat gob, i wish i had talent like that.

[joben212]

haha! she told you.

don't hate on the girls talent.

i don't know her but what she is doing is awesome

[NeneAkechi]

It's still a great picture ^__~

[17xlilax17]

Thats because an artist would do a sketch before inking it. ._.

[jstevens428]

omggg i saw that too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...and yes, i drew it in pencil before i started filming, now go away.

[confidential247]

LOVES IT! now i'm over it. Make some more of these!!

[TheWillofDC]

HAPPY 1 YEAR!

[AndreaFromAlaska]

creppy

[forza599]

you mean creepy?

[lfulord]

Wow! you did a great job.

[gianhet]

really wonderful, u have a really nice style =).

I draw too but not like that ^^

i try to make all the tones of shading =3

Could u gimme advices pls ?

[tyleroakley]

Just wanted to let you know, I see this picture everyday :]

[thetman55]

and I'm SURE it's not because you appreciate the artistic quality of it ^^

[vicsy18]

thats amazing love it

[ShiftingStars]

OMG! - thats all i can say!

On that drawing at least. Thnx for the tips! this is so not my style though. . . I love to draw still life. Or peoples faces. BUT MOSTLY FACES! and arms, i just recently got good at drawing hands . . .

[yelodoggie]

Nice drawing. I wish you'd have shown the end result a little longer, though, so we could soak it up for a few minutes.

[blackanesian]

ive been wanting to try this style of drawing

is it basically all the parts that would normally be shaded, you make black?

[jstevens428]

yeah it's hard to explain, but all the bright parts, leave white, and all the shaded parts just fill in. you have to use your own judgment sometimes so it'll still look like the person you want to draw.

[blackanesian]

aw frick

i wish you could show me in person or something

i just tried and it looked gay, totally not my style, you do it well though

[jstevens428]

haha sorry :( I wish i could help. If you have any photo editing software, make the pic grayscale, add contrast and brightness and that may help. i have to do that sometimes if the pic is poor quality. good luck :)

[feelthemusic39]

THIS IS INCREDIBLE!!! OMG! IT LOOKS JUST LIKE HIM! hand expressions and everything!

[jstevens428]

haha thanks :)

[appleyeoman]

number 08 is the best but I always hate how I can see my lines... using a sharpie sucks because its not black there is a shine to it... I love your work!!!

[jstevens428]

i agree, i dont like how you can see the lines, but if you use a number 1, not the .01, but just the 1, it's a bigger tip and if you're doing a lot of black it really helps everything go faster.

[the8thlilpeep]

Did you do this in one take, for the first time in pen??? Either way, it is absolutely amazing. And wonderful pose. First one that comes to mind when I think of that genius. :D Keep the brilliance up!

[jstevens428]

no, i had a light pencil sketch before i started recording, but you can barely see it. all the ink was in one take though. thanks :)

[mxvirus]

this is completely amazing.

makes me love tyler even more...and thats alot!

[laurelissocoollike]

YOU ARE SO AMAZING AT DRAWING!

[missylikesapples]

WOW! That's impressive.

:)

[coolquestion]

Wow!!! that's was awesome :-)

[bookswise]

what kind of pen do you use?

[jstevens428]

Micron art pens

[ILuvDepp]

Thats amazing =]

You're really talented, all your drawing are brilliant!

[virus745]

did u draw dat by ur self? if so, ur a good1 dat i never seen be4, but actually i think dat i saw sumthin at the start, an outline of the drawin, i cant see it very well because of the quality of the video but yh i guess u did dat aoutline, did u? cuz if ur just cheatin by triyn to print out the outline on paper using a computer, dat aint kwl girl. but if u r just say it.

[jstevens428]

yes, i drew this by myself. i had a pencil outline on the paper before i started the drawing, cause if i did that part on camera you wouldnt even be able to see it until i started the ink part. thats also the part that takes the longest, so half of my video you wouldnt even be able to see. :)

[HondoCarrer]

You can tell that paper is way to thick to be able to see through it and trace. And how can you trace off of cardboard? I find this great. Entertaning and funny. Don't let these fools get to you babe. You're very talented.

[jstevens428]

thanks :) people are just trying to get to me, it doesnt work. it makes me laugh that people take their time out to watch this, then leave a bad comment. Oh for the love of youtube...

[ashiamalashia]

Your drawings are really good.

[themarshall65]

Notice how she "spins" it around instead of lifting it up? geesh!

[finzfan1334]

She drew it fool! I saw it, don't get jealous cause you cant draw.

[themarshall65]

She TRACED it you MORONS!!!!!!

[jstevens428]

clearly, you're the moron.

[themarshall65]

Lift up that paper so we can see what youre TRACING you poser.

[jstevens428]

how can i trace something off of the cardboard? just wondering. if you know, teach me, i'd like to find out how to cheat...

[MacbookJesse]

this is great! good job!

[bummercucumber]

Awesome!

[dwarfrabbit445]

WOW!! You're amazing!!

[TotallyFreaked]

damn your talented!

[the8thlilpeep]

Love the pose! You should send it to Tyler. Awesome! Good job. absolutely amazing.

[jstevens428]

Thanks..and I did send it to him a few weeks ago :)

[MikeyMcCrashCap]

You're an amazing, articulate, and simply genius artist. I have always been envious of the talent that artists, such as yourself, have. Enjoyed the video very much, thanks.

[MissMahonieee]

omg .. that is AMAZING!

Shoooot girl! LOL

[BrettTheIntern]

Jess, honestly, this is incredible. After having watched this 3 times, I am still impressed. Keep up with your drawings, your talent is outstanding.

[malinisdasex]

haha he favorited this

[HenryTheRainboDino]

Super wonderful. :]

A+

:D

If we were grading, of course.

[bluedragonly]

omg, that's awesome!

[MasOvaltinePls]

Loveeeee

[hollermahler]

UM can i say WOW?? how did you do that...it's like a photo!

[annahpanna]

wow that was so cool, i wish i could do that

[SirDanyo]

Wow!!! That's amazing! It looks just like him! You're very talented. =)

[duanewilliams]

Great drawing! What kind of pen do you use?

[jstevens428]

I use Micron art pens. They come in all different sizes, but I usually use 08 which is bigger than most, cause otherwise it'll take me forever to fill in all the black spots.

[gollyck]

yeah i really wish i had your talent.

you're really good.

[jstevens428]

thanks!

[finzfan1334]

That was really awesome! Can you make a video of you drawing Billie Joe for me please? lol

[jstevens428]

yes Jonathan, I'll draw Billie Joe for you. But you have to wait till I finish these other ones I already have planned out...sorry:(

[juugoolart]

wow.. how many of those markers do you go through a day?!

great job btw :D :D

[jstevens428]

One pen can last 3-4 drawings depending on how much black is in the photo...not bad :)

[katlaura13]

thats incredible

[yourrrsmile]

that is really freaking cool, lol. and its even cooler that he favorited this (:

[jstevens428]

ohhh I know! I saw that he favorited it, too. He was also the first one to comment on it :)

[grrrbuddy]

when I saw the finished picture I immediately thought "shoot"

[jstevens428]

haha shoooot girl. I was gonna write "Shooooooot" on it but I didn't want to ruin it.

[fiercefive]

wow incredible!

someone's got talent.

[crlyqmagee]

wow you are incredible!

[mylastbreath9887]

Amazing as always jessi! :P Looks great!

[jasonskehan]

WOW!

Perfection.

[lauryljane]

Looks like she traced Tyler. Cheater.

[SuperQBoi]

um, no. When I used ink (or anything for that matter thats non-reversible to your surface) as a medium I put down a light sketch. Thats common knowledge in the arts.

[jstevens428]

I didn't trace him, I had a pencil drawing that I had done before I decided to record this. You can check out my other drawings on my channel, unless you think I traced those too.

[itsdaveydestruction]

that's awesome...if you know what i mean

[jstevens428]

HAHA...I do know what you mean! ..If you know what I mean.

[katieshelby]

That is crazy good!

[iamchevi]

awesome.

cheers, dear! :D

xx

[lizann16]

[charlie007angel]

holy smokes....A-MAZING!!!!

[Voltaic24]

[jstevens428]

Yep it's Tiger Army-Rose of the Devil's Garden!

[benwms]
