It's not the tracing in and of itself that matters, but I'm convinced the mental rigidity you see in this guy explains why some people just never progress no matter what. I feel like it should occur to you try something that obvious early on, but some people never even try something that simple. They have a thousand unexamined, unconscious scruples about what is "allowed" and they won't just try new and unconventional ideas. Maddening stuff.

he's stupid or retarded because clearly doesnt pay attention to his own guidelines. willingly ignorant. actually i know for a fact he is retarded because he has yellow fever

Gave it a shot. I don't draw Korean women so I'm not used to their specific features, so it was something new for me.

blender-core plastic face, nothing to learn from drawing gook women really

It is easy to get caught up in what is right or wrong, to the point that it becomes impossible to apply what you learn, since you get caught up in the concern that if you draw something in this new way, you're just ripping off the pieces you studied/copied, so you wind up reverting to your already ingrained drawing methods.

He did trace, but somehow he still managed to fail at it completely. It's like he wasn't even trying.

Draw with pen and paper. You can omit lines and details to make it more visually appealing. Notably don't draw the bridge of her nose, skip the nostrils, or just draw the nostril holes only. You're drawing hair in an extremely messy way. Break it into solid shapes/planes, like they were paper. Not random threads of hair. Enlarge the image, squint your eyes, and draw roughly what you see from that as well.
But again, pen and paper forces you to think extremely strategically for where each line goes, and you WILL mess up a LOT. But it's part of the process of hard-wiring your mind to be more objective AND selective in line use and weight.

all the references suck as well. its like trying to draw a turd. actually, you'd get more practice out of a well lit, high resolution turd than some cosplay or gook roastoid

As an exercise, tracing value shapes can be much more informative than tracing contours.

If you're telling people to draw ugly old people as Da Vinci did then I gladly will. I should start with you first! Post your face, Anon.
>>
why is he drawing all the features at once, that's the most difficult way to learn to draw faces
>>
>>7897669
Because that's how just about every beginner artist starts out, thinking drawing is just eyeballing the lines and xerox machine printing everything in one go. It's when they're introduced to fundies and building things out of basic shapes they start to develop a better workflow. That is unless you're this guy who still doesn't have a clue what the construction lines he's shitting on the canvas are meant for. Probably because he's more focused on churning out content for his YT channel than figuring out what's wrong with his drawing.
>>
>>7897721
>>7897669
He should be focusing on getting his proportions accurate with simple lines that denote the brow ridge/eye-line/bottom of nose/mouth. Only AFTER your proportions are consistently accurate should you be even considering placing features on them.

But yea, he's probably just interested in churning out content than analyzing how to learn better.
>>
>>7897721
well even eyeballing copying he should be getting much closer. I have no clue if hes trying to copy or do his own thing since hes so off on everything. not one line is even remotely close on the examples provided itt
>>
>Schizoing out this hard on some random /beg/
You niggers have no intention of actually drawing, do you?
>>
>>7897740
He's not random, he's been talked about here before. Lurk more kudasai.
