Fix Your Boring Flat Drawings with Depth Tricks

Показать описание

Learn comic drawing techniques focused on line weight and shadow placement in this lesson, which emphasizes the use of line weight and shadow to bring illustrations to life. Watch as @DavidFinchartist explains a simple, effective design pattern for a comic panel. Dark lighting outlines the figures, opening up in the middle to draw focus. Foreground elements frame the panel. Line weights and shadows add depth, with thicker lines for closer elements and thinner lines pushing elements back. Compositional shadows frame the main figures, while the dark foreground and light background details maintain focus. Minimal rendering with shadowing and detail creates depth and dimension while keeping the basic composition.

Finch is so mastered at character illustration it's easy to forget he's equally skilled with composition. That frame is absolutely full of clutter and still every element serves the visual flow perfectly. Awesome to watch

david finch's line quality is insane

This is gonna be a bit off topic. But watching few videos on this channel i discovered kinda cool way of learning when you can see reference on screen and then the artist disects it. It is good to draw from the reference and then draw ffrom reference to the side, but follow the artist. This way you can see your mistakes super well and can improve a lot. I kinda use this method to improve my gesture drawing abilities and i have literally seen improvement in the matter of few days.

The line weight process is genius! Great advice

Controlling the composition with lights and shading is a nice method. Personally I use dynamic lines, thin amd thick, medium and other sometimes 3 line types with one stroke to make the background lighter and front darker or lower parts of the page darker and upper part lighter, it looks intresting together with shading.
