Has anyone ever tried this before? Does it work?
you retard
>>7935939this is helpful if you are looking to get good at those shapes. I did fill quite a few pages of ellipses when learning how to draw wheels in perspective
>>7935939600 hours. Drawing is just a talent.
>>7935970now combine those shapes
>>7935970Its fucking weird seeing something that art professors in my college taught as something yo do to warm up your hands before drawing being taken at face value as a lesson you have to fucking practice. I dont know why /begs/ just dont go the extra mile and actually just buy generic white blocks and spheres and set em up on like a desk or table and just draw em. Actually OBSERVE and shit, you know? Again thats how art professors do it and even novices who arent interested in drawing end up producing better drawings for the class then this useless shit
>>7935939I did, and the gains were fantastic, but now the moment my pen touches the paper, my entire desk gets blown away. Not worth it bros.
>>7935981OH FUG. DO NOT DRAW ON THE GROUND.
>>7935970Professional artists from older days considered rulers and what-not to be absolutely indispensable. You don't need to be able to make flawless circles and lines when the tools to do that for you are right there.
>>7935939It's great! Grind shapes like crazy for a week, then do the same for lines for a week, then do nothing but forms for two weeks. Make sure it's continuous drawing or else you're making things harder for yourself.Then you move on to blind contours and gesture studies.

>>7935970Why would you even bother saving any of those images? It's not like any of them are worth anything, or are something to show other people.Seems like they were saved just for this performative video.
>>7935970>digitaloh nonononono....
>>7935939>Does it work?Sure, draw stuff with construction and you'll naturally use all that stuff. If you do them on their own, like >>7935970 you'll not really learn to draw anything but them. But if you use it as the base for construction, you will learn to draw most things
>>7935939No, I could never commit to thatI spent 1000s of hours drawing mediocre comics that will never see the light of day
This anon is right: >>7935980You're better off just doing observational drawing than grinding lines/circles/etc.I did the latter and made virtually no improvement.>pic not related
>>7936467>chickenscratchYou know that the point of grinding lines/shapes is to develop accuracy and get used to continuous line drawing, right? Grinding lines/shapes is also critical for recall when it comes to observational drawing because you need to build memory of shapes in various sizes in order to make the drawing process easier.
