I was just sketching vehicles thinking ro myself "I need to practice drawing cars" and then I scroll youtube and see this.

[David-nkpv]

I love how practical and to the point this is. Instead of confusing us with endless tutorials and theory that we may not even know how to apply. Thank you mr Finch!

That thumbnail alone is proof of his artistic skills.

Dave..it looks like a delorean and hummer hybrid...incredible!!!

A lot of art oriented YouTuber shows very sketchy examples to just demonstrate topic and logic but you show us full comic artwork for YouTube format. Thank you a lot. It’s a pleasure to watch.

For young artists just starting out, drawing reference lines (grids) is the best trick I learned in college years ago. Oddly enough, I learned it from another art student, not from the instructor. I used to struggle getting the proper size perspective. I’d draw. Erase. Draw. Erase. Draw. Erase. Draw. Erase.
Finally a buddy tells me to do those perspective lines FIRST. and more lines, the better. Just make them light so they can be easily erase or drawn over. I’d always done perspective lines when drawing buildings, houses, etc. But it never dawned on me to draw perspective lines for OBJECTS, like cars, tractors, boats, airplanes.
This trick did a couple of things for me:
1. My sizing was more accurate.
2. I save a ton of time.
3. I was able to complete drawings much faster, thereby enabling me to do more drawings in less time.
4. I SAVED MONEY. I spent far less money on erasers, paper and pencils.
5. And lastly, my works were much, much better because I was less frustrated and more relaxed, which resulted in better pieces.
That was one of the best tips I’d ever received.

I love that you're honest about rarely using the perspective guideline and just eyeballing it when actually illustrating cars for your work - cause following the perspective 'box' guidelines to a tee sometimes make the overall thing we're drawing stiff, plus surely after drawing for awhile you'd just need basic perspective guidelines instead of the box

One of best tips that I recivied was "draw like a sculptor" and this is exaclty what was this video!

My dad is an architect and he used that app that you're using and when I was younger and I used to play that app. Thank you for this tutorial my drawing has been improving for the last couple of months ❤️

Lol you're drawing my car! I drive an 05 Taurus. And I definitely needed this video. Last time I tried to draw a car, it didn't turn out so great.

[labsquadmedia]

That 90 degree ellipse tip is gold. I had to actually sketch it out to wrap my mind around what you were saying but I got it. Thanks.

David Finch is an amazing artist, I'm blown away each time he draws.

[Dr.RockeART]

Again a great tutorial, thank you so much! I need to do something other then figures at some point, so I will try to give them cars a try ☺️😅🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[chickfillamemes]

This is very helpful… u just clarified all my mistakes that I’ve made in my drawings, and the military car is insane I’m learning so much! Keep up the good work 👍

[MrRebustr]

I had a lock on my way of drawing until i seen this video...it all makes so much sense and i can draw again after 15 years i given up drawing ...im back thanks to you sir ...thank yoy and salutations

[otakupal]

Damn I searched for this circle in perspective stuff for almost 2 months but didn't get a satisfactory answer everything was super academic until I watched ur video
I am very grateful, thanks a lot ❤️❤️

[kevinmandevil]

Another great video David. Thank you very much! Looking forward to this upcoming Mondays live stream and to taking some of your courses in the near future! ✍🏻

[cokoladaajeje]

This is the best drawing car I've ever seen

[RodrigoCavalcantiRFC]

Your batcave and batmobile of the Dark Knight are the best ever. 🤘🏻

Hey Dave you might try sending this design to some film industry and I am sure your military car will break through the defenses and I'll definitely go and watch that movie. Thank You for the tutorial and your voice explaining does help a lot!😀😀
