I found an old timelapse/speedpaint of an old Wraith fanart from Apex Legends, so I wanted to take a look at it and see if my process and art has improved at all from then. I tried doing a quick redraw to see if there was any difference!

Based on the thumbnail alone i thought you were roasting a 5 year old artist who's exceptionally good
Same lol
I thought they were roasting a character that looked 18 but was 5 years old
Nice roast of pika's art 😂😂
Same at first
That would’ve been an interesting video
The hip struggle is so relatable. Wtf is going on there, where does the mass go when you move your legs or sit down? magic.
It pancakes when you sit down
@@jg3838 mhmm... legs😋😋😋
it moves
Hips are particularly hard for me because they are just big empty spaces with no landmarks. The torso has a lot more going on and thus is easier.
at first I thought it was a drawing of Sonic from One Punch Man lol
Every time I see this picture I think the same thing. I still don't know who it actually is, lol
Nope, she said it's Wraith from Apex at the beginning of the video@@everfluctuating
I had the exact same thought LOL
same 😞
@@everfluctuatinghe knows bro
honestly this is exactly how I draw rn with the manually coloring in, erasing bits of my lineart, redrawing 10000 times and having a really sketchy sketch 💀
same 🤕
means you now know what to change in approach, good thing you found this video
@@watLegends you are so right!
I have lots of drawing problems but I do like drawing because I know that even if it sucks, I'm still trying and that is what matters. :)
@Qwertyuiopasdfghjklzxcvb-my3kk HELL YEAH THATS THE WAY TO GO!!! We don't evolve until we step out of our comfort zone. That kind of thinking is also useful for other aspects of life, as I come to find out
I do love the way you do your content, feels more like a friend giving advice. Very different from some channels where the approach is "I'm the drawing God, follow my unquestionable rules".
As a begginer who's currently learning perspective I can say that it saved my will to draw. I used to get so frustrated because my drawing looked off and didn't know why or how to fix it, but now that I'm learning perspective and I look back at old drawing I realize that my mistakes were perpective based rather than anamatomy. I can finally draw without feeling awful for how bad it looks like trash, I definitely encourage other begginers that are in the same situation as I was to learn perspective, is a life saver
I thought you were roasting a 5 year old who drew a picture of genderbent Speed O' Sound Sonic from OPM... 😅
FR HAHAHHA
what in the speed-o'-sound sonic
what in the genos
i thought it was him
You just roasted the “present me” lol yesterday i was drawing and i made the exact same sketch and lineart “mistakes” I felt observed but also helped :’D
well i hope u can improve now!
Honestly still super impressive to me that your old Wraith drawing was made with just vibes
I honestly thought you were going to roast a random 5 year old artist that's insanely skilled I was so confused
This was actually kind of nice to see, I do a lot of chicken scratch sketching but I always get frustrated having to redraw things. I think I'll have to start learning to box things out and giving extra thought to the perspective
After a decade of not drawing, your videos and personal experiences have really inspired me to get back into it. Thanks for the quality content!
This is actually really helpful! I've barely begun to learn and I currently draw in a similar way to your old process. Every now and then I try to start doing studies but sooner or later I fall back to "vibes and feels", because honestly doing studies is excruciatingly difficult and boring and it doesn't feel like I'm actually going to get anything out of it. But after watching this I'm actually seeing that progress IS possible even if it might take a while to get there
Ugh im so stuck on the Lineart Must Be Perfect mindset. Ive always been a clean lines kind of guy; all through highschool I practiced with 0.1 & 0.05 microns and brush pens. I'd get so meticulous that id hold my face an inch above the paper so I could see *every detail*. Now that Ive been doing digital for 5 or 6 yrs, I'm still stuck zooming in and tweaking every line. Even switching back to traditional doesnt help me stop, cause I subconsciously go back to hunching over the paper to be as close as I can. I want to care less about my lines because I KNOW im a capable line-artist. I KNOW Ive spent years learning how to do them. Its not even that my lines arent confident enough- I can pull a long smooth line in 1 try. But I still obsess over any lines that cross, anywhere I *could* add more weight, and if the lines are flowing enough or not. I end up wasting a ton of time tweaking things that get totally lost in the final drawing, or that dont rlly matter at all. And its always a sunconscious thing I end up getting frustrated with myself over later. 🙃 Why must the gift of creativity come with the curse of tedious perfectionism!?!?!? WHY!?!?!?
Every day i watch a Pikat video i also need to draw boxes. Boxes are life now.
I really love your content. I wish I found your stuff sooner because you have such a healthy mindset and your advice is soothing my depressed and constantly worrying mind. Doing all of these box exercises sure give you milage, but they just suck out the fun out things. I feel so much better just drawing what I like, not worrying as much and enjoying the process, rather than hyper fixating on improvement.
I just found your videos not too long ago since I started drawing a few months ago, and they're wonderful! Keep it up!
i think i stumbled across ur twitch channel sometime recently and started seeing these vids in my recc's. i've watched a few and i really love ur break down of learning to draw better. many of the tips are kinda like AH that makes much more sense to me now. not so much for the hips tip here, tho. i've constantly tried to make legs make sense to me with 'ball-joints' like a doll but i still don't get how those things work xD thanks for all the info sharing tho ~ i enjoy these break down videos
That PMD music hit so hard.
scrolled to find this HAHAHA
Big PTSD kecleon moment
Make more videos. IDC about what. I just binged your whole channel and need more. Talk about clams for an hour or whatever, I just love your personality.
Ma dear! I effing love your content full of amazing drawing skills and your badass pixel art 3D model! Could one of your future videos be a tutorial on how you accomplished such a magnificent feat regarding your model? You suddenly appeared on my feed and I was like whaaaaaat? And now, I'm hooked hahaha! Cheers!
If I ever learn how to draw, I’ll come back here. But for now, here’s a like❤
You know what I would love...a video where you talk about how you balance studies (like anatomy, boxes etc.) with personal work! I struggle there a lot..
Ok but if we're being honest 2019 pikat was wayyyyyyu better than 2019 me- I did war crimes man.... 😭
watching this makes me realise how horrible at draving i am since i do know boxes and stuff and yet i cant make anything even slightly as good as her old drawing. i feel like shit.
Pikat's new upload at 5:20 AM? Hell yeah
damn it's 5AM for you?
I thought that was Speed of Sound Sonic. Also, what's rendering?
I literally thought it was Sonic too lol Rendering is the process of adding details to your art to make it more accurate or lifelike! So like adding shadows, lighting, texture, etc.
this is a cold comfort
I thought you were drawing Sonic from OPM at first 😅
u gotta be the realest art youtuber to date fr
I'm not sure if it was stupid or briliant, but when I had just started drawing back in 2010... I'd had my tablet for MAYBE a month...I told myself, "I'm going to draw a doujinshi so it forces me to practice everything." And I did it. I drew an eye-bleed-worthy doujinshi, 25 pages worth, with backgrounds and poses and terrible attempts at dramatic composition, BUT I DID IT. And I really need to find that moxie again, damn. XDD
discovering your content was a blessing from the art gods
Oh man, I draw like that, I have almost no idea what I'm doing, no boxing out characters, lots of scratchy lines, but I don't mind, even though I know that's not the best. There's just so many variables to a good drawing, and someone who's new that's a lot of stuff I need to both study and improve at *and* keep all of it in mind when doing a complete drawing. I'd rather take it one thing at a time and appreciate my own subpar (for now) art 😊
I can think of a certain Austrian painter who fully deserves his art getting some brutal feedback.
i have to say im trying to get better at digital art and its painfuly hard for me to draw it just feels unnatural for me and im used to picking up and down my pencil for different pencils, and the fact i often just doodle in a note pad when i have a digital art software open is kind funny to me is there anything i can do to get better?
Am I the only one who uses stabilization when it comes to the inking? I mean I only use it because my hands are super shaky, but I hardly see anyone use stabilization, especially as a beginner.
The software I use doesn't have stabilization
fr but probably because they have steadier hands than us.. 😭😭 i dont know
I’m someone who’s never used a stabiliser and personally it was because using it felt like I was dragging through mud. Made my lines smoother, sure, but also made it less sharp. I like to draw using quick, sharp lines as I learnt that was an efficient way to do inking, and the stabilisers I used muddled it up, make my points into curves. I don’t have any hand problems (other than my wrist hurting).
old her is literally me - chicken scratching - no box - OCD lineart - etc.
You just roasted the “present me” lol yesterday i was drawing and i made the exact same sketch and lineart “mistakes” I felt observed but also helped :’D 😅😅
I feel that I need to confess some kind of sin. At some point of my short artist jorney I just felt that I need to draw boxes. No one forced me. nor did I thought of it before. I was against it and then found myself casually drawing boxes. Well.... Without reference and just for line practise, but WHATEVER. Jorney continues
Thank you so much this really helped!
I feel like 250 box challenge is a very great source. But i ve read some stuff and i realized that many people just dont understand it correctly. Even though it was said straightforward
omg you did that drawing i loved it xD
Normally I wouldn’t laugh at another’s artwork but this video made me laugh so much 😂 Awesome video pikat
How to you get the little hand to follow your strokes??
i love speed-o-sound sonic!
Speed-'O-Sound Sonic was never the same...
Elo pika I like your pencil how did you make it? :3
I THOUGHT THE ARTIST WAS 5 YEARS OLD
Pikat roasting over an open fire
New box lover video! yay!
1:04 as someone who does this, i was like what the flip, am i not ment to sketch like this????
Yes I used to zoom in to do line art... definitely don't still do that...eh, yeah I do.
the pros in manga and manwha do chicken scratch before line art and color not 3 different sketches or they just draw with no sketch and they are awesome.
6:40 WHAT THERE ARE EASIER WAY?! I just use some random colors and then use pin layer to draw on this "shape" layers withour getting out of line art
is that really wraith? i though it was a meme and it was Sonic Speed of sound from One Punch Man XD
ik this video is 2 months old but would you ever consider drawing more legends :0 (if you still play the game that is) honestly i think they’d look so cute in your art style !!
Ha! The clickbait didn’t work on me 😈 I knew you’d roast yourself 😎
I only clicked on this video because of the pixel art vtuber, it mesmerizes me
Honestly never seen a single video about apex even when it "blew up" never known real person who actually played it and till now it's one of my rare encounters with this game so i'm really surprised that they have speed o' sound Sonic there.
0:40 for a second I thought he was sonic from opm💀
Can't believe you'd roast a 5 year old's drawings! They're still learning! Can't believe this.
I kinda just autopilot instead of follow my previsions now, causing me to sometimes rely on random ideas and moodboards
i feel so attacked by this video and it isn't even about me
2:18 How do you do line art now?
that part about making every line perfect down to a pixel feels too close to home lol
Are you supose to draw boxes from reference or from your inmagination?
wraith lookin like she can go as fast as the speed-o'-sound
“Would you lose in a drawing competition with this Vtuber?” *Nah, I’d draw*
the original from 2019 i thought it was speed o sound sonic
Oh shite, I got into my chicken scratch skatch phase without realising! xd Well, its funnier abd faster to draw chicken lines than clean lines(idk, I just use Ctrl+Z too much time. It should not take so long. And chicken lines give chance to see what I am going for without 10 Ctrl+Zs involved. Or maybe I just mistake chicken lines with searching. idk
Honestly I still do lineart like that iedhjend I can’t get very clean lines at all otherwise
I feel garbage
Pikat in 4 years roasting this video and the art she redid
this entire video just feels like she is referring to my art I do every single one of these currently
I think this is the first time I've seen a pixel art VTuber model
I have never used a pen and a pencil on the same piece of paper
Bro I thought it was sonic too
What app do you use?
what app do you use
IS THAT SONIC SPEED O SOUND SONIC
FUCK ITS WRAITH
Kinda reminds me of speed o sound sonic from One Punch Man
2:45 😏
I thought that was sonic from opm
bro i thought that was speed o sound sonic in thumbnail
Waith is basically sonic
when looking at the thumbnail I thought she drew speed o sound sonic
based on the thumbnail I thought you would roast an artist that draws 5 year olds like adults xD
Why was the sketch better than all my art😭
i love your videos ❤
just noticed that wraith is really similar to speed'o sonic from one punch man
I have a question, what if you run out of ideas to draw then what? Browsing pinterest doesnt help either
Why does this look like my current timelapses 〒▽〒 (and I too nit pick on my lineart XD)
I hate this cuz i still do the lineart and perspective thing despite having the actual knowledge and skill not to 😔
i thought it was speed of sound sonic ngl
flounder
I thought that was supposed to be Sonic from OPM
Honestly your old drawings great in my eyes with is a big concerning hahaha but my sketches look nothing like your olds ones. Art is spooky and im pretty sure most of us are just lost hahaha
It's like you are roasting me at this moment This literally me but on normal paper except worse
i tought it was fucking sonic
