Thinking about buying Proko's course bundle (portrait/anatomy/figure). Got a code for 20% off.

Anybody else purchased the packs before? Was it worth it?

Fuck you dude.
The Loomis got translated in various languages by shitty tier /int/ wannabe which is the reason for "Draw the rest of the fucking owl" meme.
In some cases, Loomises books were "translated" with just pictures and 1/3 of the instructions which resulted in Loomis becoming a meme.

Proco explains shit pretty well, straight to the point which helps him avoid Vill POO droning syndrome or "repeat same obvious shit over and over again" trait that many modern atelier teacher tend to share.
There is literally the only teacher that I knew that goes straight to the most important points without wasting hours on mindless dronning or repeating really obvious things over and over again.

This is what shitters here will never understand. Imaginative drawing has been peddled as some sort of detrimental /beg/ meme, when in reality, imaginative drawing is the fucking endgame of visual art. Coltrane didn’t just pick up a saxophone one day and bust out Giant Steps from imagination. It took thousands and thousands of hours of fundamental practice to reach that level.

I hope you guys know the reason you're sucking at this whole figure drawing thing is not the anatomy, but the whole mechanics of the body. Seemingly every single tutorial out there seems to skip over this however this sole thing is the reason you're suffering from drawing figures.

Proko isn't going to help you.

What?
>>3690619
Twisting, bending, sitting, running, about to action, crouching, etc. These subtleties in the figure seem to be glossed over in favor of poses that are just standing there in a hollywood lamp floor room. Not to mention foreshortening and perspective.

Knowing this will speed up your understanding rather than getting it wrong/guessing like a total retard. The body behaves drastically in these situations.

It seems you've realized that I'm right and you couldn't, for example, "animate" a figure in sequence correctly in a natural human mechanic without it looking guessed.

I basically let you in on a time saving secret here. Instead of grinding floating figures in space, understand mechanics first and it'll be easier for you. Take what you want from it, Idc.

I have all of this. Honestly, IMO, the bundle isn't worth it, thought initially I'd thought it was:

1) It adds only about 10-15% of info to his free videos, what a surprise for a purchaser!
So, he gives 90% for free and 10% for $300. It's generous, but it makes no sense in buying unless you just want to support Proko.

2) After all, he's not very interesting as an artist; I don't mean he's bad, there are a lot of awful ones, he's good; but simply not inspiring, too overestimated; I've found a lot of interesting guys that much more "arty" at figure drawing, but they has 10-15 times less subscribers.

3) IMO, if I had had to spend 200-300 bucks on art education, I would visit a local artist studio

>90% for free

Not really but it depends on the video

The "How to Draw Butts" video is 50% longer in premium than youtube, his "Drawing Hands I" video goes from 9 minutes to 17 minutes, an increase of almost 100%, "Drawing Hands II" goes from 15 minutes to 22, another 50% increase etc.

Indeed, some videos appear to change very little but the ones that do change, and having access to the best 3D content and his books make it well worth it in my opinion.

He is a good artist who knows his stuff except granny portraits stuff is not an interesting subject matter to me.
That said I am not watching him for art but for his ability to lay down knowledge in easy to understand and organised manner with some jokes and asian qt.3.14 thrown in for good measure.

For comparison Vilppo makes me fall asleep and link related

Undoubtedly have knowledge to share but is so thinly spread in hours of his vids that I am even debating should I spend time listening to him stating obvious and sketching slowly just for those few tips and hints that I did not found in books b4.

Proko has skill and knowledge and good entertainment value, just cost more than some people make monthly.
I mean, I wont be making money with my skill but I still want to learn this shit he teaching, I just cant afford not buying winter clothes or not paying bills just so I can buy his stuff.

I don't know if you are serious, but in case you are, I didn't mean 10% of timing, but 10% of worth.

And at the end of the day, I believe that amazing books like Bammes' will make the difference in your work, the great artists that inspire you will make it, but not the videos that you watch, even purchased.

Nope but my only winter jacket is probably 8 years old at this point and my only pair of pants have holes between legs and my only pair of shoes are not really suited for winter and my previous winter shoes have holes because leather cracked from time I also have them probably more than 10 years.

Also being hiki since 2008 did nothing to improve state of my wardrobe and minimal wages in poland are not enough to support myself and get me a new set of brand rags.

If you want to really catch the anatomy, you have to dig real sources, like Gottfried Bammes, not the few fifteen-minutes-long videos. That's a delusion, IMO. If you want to work with 3d models, you have install 3ds max or whatever and download or buy 3d models and work with them thoroughly. Browsing on Proko's site won't give you this depth. And so on.

And I've also realized that it's not the "anatomy" meme that makes a figure drawing amazing. Moreover, you can even toss your anatomy out completely (though that's a bad advice). But the mastery of the line, the focal point, the perspective, the flow of the pencil, the vividness, the contrasts, the composition, the play, etc. That's what I see in the works I like and I want to follow.

Not going to convince you or anything, but since you've asked...

>>	Anonymous Fri Nov 23 15:56:22 2018 No.3691903 >>3682084 As someone who's studied from both, Vilppu is better. Proko makes the common mistake of drawing every single form, when studying, which just leads to needlessly confusing drawings like you posted there.

>>	35yoboomer Fri Nov 23 16:01:05 2018 No.3691908 >>3691903 >the common mistake of drawing every single form Bingo, that's just one example of things that I personally dislike in figure drawing sketches (though I'm a total toy and don't have a professional opinion or anything to be followed).

Yeah. I spent years doing exactly that, and wondering why my sketches quickly became hard to follow, as well as detail. It wasn't until Vilppu explained something so simple in his lectures, of just
>light basic preliminary marks, of shit like lines and ellipses, is fine
>THINK through the forms, but DRAW only what you would SEE
That it all instantly clicked. And when I say instantly, I mean legit the first time I tried drawing after watching his lecture, everything instantly made sense and I could do it.

And all because he showed me how to keep the sketch clean. It's utterly ridiculous.

>>	35yoboomer Fri Nov 23 16:20:55 2018 No.3691938 >>3691920 Glad for you, anon. And, apparently, I'm glad for myself to discover the same idea after a few weeks of drawing, literally after few figure drawings.

Indeed I do.

But I have to preface something. Vilppu's teachings here aren't magic. I've spent literal months drawing nothing but primatives, and their intersections, years (poorly) doing figure drawings, and like a quarter of a year studying nothing but isolated anatomy on a relatively daily basis.
So going in, I knew:
>perspective
>primitives
>form intersection
>proportions
>gesture
>weight and forces
and a whole slew of other shit.

So I had the skills required to do what he's teaching, I had just never known how.

>>3691938
Thanks, and good on you too.

I mean, Proko did that to demonstrate the anatomy which is what the lesson was about, he himself knows the principles of not rendering every single detail out quite well and covered that topic in some of his videos. He was taught by Watts after all, which heavily supports that kind of mindset

I'm a total /beg/ to recommend anything, but what I've actually recommended for myself is to watch closely the drawings I like and analyze it open-mindedly.
Literally, how does this guy work with light? Etc.

Also, many artist show their draw-alongs (including Instagram videos) those can be eye-openers.
How does he hold his pencil at this moment?
Why he decides to mark a nose with a single microstroke, while spending several minutes on hair?
How the size of the paper constricts or dilates the movements?
When it's a cool idea not to start with a head? Etc.

>>3692350
Thank you, gonna check it. Are you agree generally what we talk about here?
