Last tutorial of the year! We're switching back to a beginner friendly topic for December, choose which ever one you'd like to see most!Ps. one of my goals for the new year is to get better at drawing people in general (because frankly I'm quite tired of drawing someone and having something not look right about the anatomy every time and having to liquify every sketch), and many things will go into this. For one, I feel that I need to study my anatomy even more and get more comfortable with faces in different positions. As well as poses, bodies, perspectives. Even stylization and perhaps costumes. Think of it like a back to basics training camp to solidify the foundational skills which I feel I need. This could be a series of tutorials based on 1 learning goal each month, which all ties together somehow in the end. It could span anywhere from 6-8 months depending on how many topics I think I need to cover. It'll be a way to not only hold myself accountable for my own studies but also hopefully provide more motivation for your guys' studies as well to improve your art with me. Let me know your guys thoughts on an idea like this to temporarily replace polls in the near future. We can also do one month Sam's learning topic, another month community poll topic, and go back and forth that way, that would work very well too. Again, just an idea right now, super welcome to suggestions, I'm just motivated to improve my own craft and wanna be more organized about it! I'd love to know your guys' thoughts on how best to do it!!

Just one video on how to draw hands, water, and thinking in shapes to make anatomy easier 😅

Have you thought about some sort of bootcamp Sam? Pretty much what you’re saying. A series of tutorials but organised as a bootcamp, from basic to advanced.

Sejade

Love your idea of a tutorial series!

Love the tutorial plan. Sam's Art School with a good structure that anyone could follow when starting out. Maybe at the end do like a lesson plan with suggestions on which earlier videos to go back and watch and in what order to best progress since we have so many tutorials now.

Lumidrawss

Yeah but they’re different artists I’m not sure what you mean by that xD

Dawid Łukaszek

Tutorial series seems like a gr8 idea. I am all for it :) To be honest that would be probably awesome experience in case someone needs guidence like many artist that take everything at once and Plato at early stages.

Itamar

Is it possible to make a dedicated video on the « breaking free from artistic perfectionism » plz ? I am sick and tired of me trying to make 1000 lines to get the perfect one

Cody Bailey

If it helps, perfect art doesn’t exist. Literally as a human being you can’t make something “perfect.” And as an artist, you’ll never be satisfied with a single stroke you make eventually so long as there’s something to improve on. And if you got into art to one day make something “perfect” you should probably reevaluate what art & being an artist means

Verónica SF

I think it's a great idea to make a set of tutorials dedicated to the basics. It will be inspiring and will give us strength to study some topic things that become a little heavy.

Chantal

Ohh I love this idea of yours 🥰 I think the one goal per month over several months sounds really great!! I feel like that gives one enough time to really focus and improve in one area before starting the next goal 😍

Femke

I love your idea about doing a longer tutorial series!✨ Makes me feel like we are all going to improve a lot together🙌🏻 Also: “breaking free from artistic perfectionism”, I felt that😭

ray

,,We can also do one month Sam's learning topic, another month community poll topic-'' I think that's the best way to improve all together + do some studys we're more interessted in

Vuurmen

I think the idea of temporarily removing polls and doing those learning goals are an amazing idea. From what I've seen 99% of your patreons are character artists as well, so this would make it more like "guided improvement", which sounds pretty good to me!

Back to basics without poll is fantastic

Tim Cham

I like the idea of going back to basics, also it coincides well with the new year so I feel it could be a nice way to motivate oneself. I’d like this without the polls I think and once the 6-8 months are over, it would be interesting to work on a bigger, more consequential piece to apply what we learnt from the journey :) Maybe a before and after piece would be interesting to do.

Janos Nagy

I love the idea! Going without polls for a while with a structure made by you, that would be great!🙏🏻

Alex

Finally one that I've been waiting for 😭🙏

S. Jackie

Going back to basics series would be perfect 🖤. - 🥳 Loooove the idea of studying together.
