Ruan Jia Sketchbook

She wants the D badly.

Also, do the chinks not have a word for "idea", or what?

there ya go

>>2791766
he draws something new from imagination at the end

>>2791762
>First Proko and now Ruan.
but he's drawing from observation here

>tfw i have the same sketchbook and pen as Ruan Jia
>tfw i always thought the sketchbook was too small and never used it
>tfw he can make life sketches of the inside of planes on it
welp. i found my motivation for today

>>2791762

The captions at 1:08 are incorrect, you can clearly here Ruan talk about "soulja boy" and "nigga" yet no mention in the translation. Fucking sjw bullshit.

He's just pretending he can speak chinese, the subs are a smoke screen.

>>2791788
He's amazing with value and shit with lines, what's not to get?

>>2791762
What was it with proko?

>>2791788
Some people are naturally better with form and value and shapes than lines. Craig Mullins cannot draw in line at all and has been trying to learn how to for the past year.

>>2791762
His sketchbook looks like a solid draftsman sketchbook.
But his rendering is out of this world.
Really activates your almonds.

Still kind of funny to find out that nobody is safe from the curse of a comfort zone.

>>2791800
He did a stream where he only drew from imagination and it turned out to be a disaster. A couple funny meme pics came out of it but I don't have them saved.

i draw better than ruan jia and proko put together. you idiots need to stop falling for the "observational drawing is a meme" meme. if you work from imagination and digitally all the time YOU WONT KNOW HOW TO DRAW. You'll be 35 with no marketable skills because your trendy "style" got replaced by a younger artist with a trendier style. you illustrators are hopeless.

pls brian at this point you sound like someone trying to impersonate you to make you look bad

>>2791764

they do, but using the western word sounds cool and worldly in Chinese.

It's like how you might say "I'm feeling very zen", to borrow a word from Japanese when you could just say "I'm feeling very relaxed/calm", they mean the same thing, but one infers a certain sophistication and cultural knowledge.

Using "idea" in a Chinese sentence sounds very trendy. Like the idea is very current and fresh.

This guy is so good and actually uses his imagination.

>>2791824
Nah, line drawing is just by far the hardest thing to do, especially with ink.

>>2791788
the pen one is pretty good actually
rendering with pencil always gives something aesthetically pleasing, it's easy to seduce with it
his sketchbooks drawings are good, idk what y'all talking about, maybe the one he does live at the end sucks but it might have been him being uncomfortable, he doesn't look too confident in the interview

any idea wha'ts the foutain pen he's using for it tho ?

I can see why people worship Kim Jung Gi as a god now.

>>2792266
Kek

His sketchbook was really fucking lame. Anyone who thinks this looked good must be blind. The lines are really crappy and and the result is really mediocre too. Just shows that he is carried by photoshop where he reworks his stuff a million times and probably uses every crutch possible.

>>2791788

>>2792532

Ruanjia is a 100 times better oil painter than you will ever be and every single drawing I've seen of yours was way worse than what we've seen in his sketchbook.

>>2792546
If you seriously think the lines in >>2791788 next to that pencil rendering are shit, then you should quit art altogether because there is positively no way in hell you are ever going to make it.

There were a bunch of pretty crappy drawings in his sketchbook, true, but he explained it in the fucking video. He trained himself to be more accurate by using permanent media and learning to leave mistakes be and moving to the next drawing. Your unbelievably dumb comments really show that you have never done direct ink drawings before and that you are too fucking stupid to understand the purpose of them.

You fucking retard. The lines are all over the places like you would do sketching with a pencil. How can one full retard worship someone wholly based on his reputation? There is not even a hint of precision in his lines. He himself said like you quoted that he is training to be more accurate, a statement that implies that he knows he is shit and wants to improve in this regard.

When he started drawing a sketch at the end he even used whitener and you could see multiple times that he has no idea where to place lines and where to not place them, a habit he developed from photoshop where he could easily erease all unnecessary lines so he never learned being careful with his lines.

He is a fucking amateur with ink, any non fanboy can see this.

>>2792556
I can't even find any painting of Kim Jung Gi. His colored works look decent. KJG said multiple times that he prefers drawing because it's the fastest you get to the result while with painting it takes a long time.

You people are humongous faggots who probably do nothing but "grind boxes" all day. His ink drawings are fine if that's what he does to warm up or help visualize a piece before working on it. They are rough and not perfect because they don't have to be because he's a million leagues above drawing gestures and anatomy for practice.

You draw cool sketches at home for hours and tear out pages with bad ones. Mix it with real outdoor sketches and tadaaan - cool sketcbook is ready, everyone wants your dick

I think sketches have nice solid line work and he seems to have a nice sense of form(I don't know the right word for this, he just seems like he knows what he's doing/knows his stuff).

And if it wasn't Ruan Jia and was some random anon and it didn't get any attention, then /ic/ doesn't know what good stuff is.

You can master color theory in a few years though if you really work at it. Even if you practice drawing every day, it takes at least a decade to be a truly great draftsman.

What's this from?

you guys actually have no idea how hard it is to draw with pen huh

>>2794543
we know, but we also know what a good pen drawing looks like. we've seen a million of them posted in inspo threads. this is borderline amateur

if i'm following brian logic it's easy as hell to make good anything when you can fix your mistakes.

You are the one who sounds like an amateur though. Clearly you do not understand the concept of sketchbooks in general and for some reason you are under the impression that all great artists do is draw great work any time, any place. The stuff that gets posted in the inspiration thread are usually not private sketchbook studies.

Ruanjia's sketches look perfectly fine considering the medium and their purpose. It's just that all you noobs know and appreciate are fancy fine art lines where the only purpose of the drawing is to look good, not to learn anything.
