I've been trying to find YouTube videos that match the following description:
Montage of drawings/paintings done by an artist, no talking or interruptions(preferably with the date listed, indicating progress), showing a person who has no idea how to draw in the least bit, ascending to be a skilled artist.
I've found videos where people go from low adult drawing level to photorealistic drawing, and I've found videos where people talk about their drawing progress with some drawings, but never anything that skims through drawings, showing the progress as it happens, and, frankly, this is something I want to see.
Anyone have any links?

sigh... op, this is not impressive. Human copies machines are the worst, just braindead monkeys drawing pop culture stars to gain exposition. dont be fooled. dont go to that path if you think you have a brain.

i don't know i have a certain fondness for pencil renderings like this. it's not very impressive, every craft fair in the world has at least one person as good as the ops pic. but it's cute isn't it? i'd spend $20 on an A4 of tay sway, worth it for the irony alone

they normally use a scale method, they dont measure just withe the eyes >:(

The pic was only to post the topic, since it's required.
Did you read the topic or just look at the picture?

guess i'll take videos of my drawings and post a montage in 4 years.

I'mma start now and get back to you in 4 years.

Well, I guess it's never too late.
Since we more or less have that record in Van Gogh, I wonder if anyone has a montage.

started copying photos?

Even copying photos you'd need to be damn good with proportion, line quality, measurements, and value. That's fucking great progress regardles.

It's a skill that can be learned, but can be painful to acquire. If you're working with photos, it might be good to use tracing paper, so you can repeatedly draw the outlines of shapes, then trace the photo you're copying to compare how off you were. Eventually, after doing it probably 5,000 times, you'll be able to find the outline with good accuracy.

From what I've seen, the majority of people who only photocopy pictures like in the OP end up either outright tracing or copying the photo block by block with a grid. It's quite hard to fuck up proportions with those methods.

It's a great showing of technical skill and a great way to grow your social media platforms.

99% of copy machine artists trace. It's only when it comes to complex texture work where they stray from the source.
