Artwod is like drawabox but for people who want to draw concept art-y, DnD type shit (form/shape language type). His video titles and stuff on youtube are clickbait pseudogarbage but the program itself is a bit more useful. I pirated a few of their classroom/course stuff that seemed good for complete beginners. Their selling point is their "WoDs", basically their weekly community art challenges and exercises if you're more the type to learn with other artists. Unless you want your work to look exactly like what their instructors look like I wouldn't bother.

It's not limited to just art advice, it's all the social media platforms because modern internet is designed from the ground up to waste your time and scam you into spending money for an easy solution for whatever problem you're trying to solve/goal you're trying to reach, from how to get in shape to how to play your vidya the 'right' way.
>THIS is the ONE video you NEED TO WATCH to GET GUD

It's just like infomercials or chink stores like Wish and Temu, everyone knows they sell only shit but people keep buying.

This spun off the earlier art youtubers who would quite literally just whine with a hipster-depressed voice about their life and how hard things are but they're holding on and so on and so on over a 20-40-ish minute timelapse of a digital painting. With titles such as "Painting and talking about life." A bunch of sad millenials latched onto this because it was relatable to their pitiful existence.
This evolved into clickbait-titles "for the algorithm" when it was the same content, as well as people trying to grift by yapping for longer needlessly.
Others spun into another direction with more high energy. I believe Ethan Becker was one of the first to succeed with that type of format, because it holds ADHDer's attention for 20 minutes better.

Others saw the demand for "relevant" subject matter - fantasy, scifi, and digital art - and focused entirely on instructional content but with better production values. This contrasts with the older instructional channels like Proko. Marco Bucci, Laovaan and MikeyMegaMega are three of the longer-standing examples of that. Very different approaches to the same thing.

Then THEN you got increasingly flanderized forms of that. THOSE incorporated content farm-y elements. That one bluehaired scammer dude I can't remember the name of went full retard, but this same camp includes trad artists who do more unboxing videos than instructional ones (ChloeRoseArt), random "fun" videos using an entire production team that are SOMETIMES instructional (Jazza, Ten Hundred) or blending with drama channels (LavenderTowne, Mohammed Agbadi).

The ones that are either vlogs or focused on business are IMO the best ones right now. Might just be my personal place in my art journey. Channels like (vlogs) Art for the Insane, David Choe, Chroma Moma, Madden Grimes, or (marketing) Kayla Carlisle. Useful for just "doing the art you want" not making art look a certain way. Ironically that comes full circle. Might just be me though

It's not for us. There are plenty of books and courses that explain the drawing process without embellishment if you actually want to learn art. All the information even exists in YouTube form without a faggy personality and click-bait. There's genuinely no need for new art instruction that isn't about new or updated technology. This is for losers who want a surrogate art friend to try and impress.

You can, but I doubt anyone is going to get better any faster with their methods as opposed to the classics. Of course if their way of presenting the subject is more engaging and therefore more motivating for you then that's great. Though the few examples of the content I've watched spent 90% of the time talking about shit loosely related to the subject at hand, so they always feel more of a time waste to me.
Also, don't know what this guy or his content is like, but

I watched this shit on 2x speed so you don't have to
Week 1: Practice intuitively drawing simple forms
Week 2: Practice manipulating simple forms
Week 3: Practice constructing objects out of simple forms
Week 4: Practice a specific topic within your drawing interest (his example is practice dwarf noses if you like fantasy)
Week 5: Study an artist you admire and try to emulate it in your own (am I now drawing just stylized dwarf noses for a week? The plan is really falling apart at this point)
Week 6: Draw from imagination for a week

Your classic, "uh oh time to make this week's video" let's shit out a half-assed lesson plan no one will ever follow through on video. You should know this if you've gotten to int level and it's too vague and unfocused for begs. Practicing forms and analyzing styles you like are both fine, but that's not some fresh hack. If some kid saw this video and tried to follow this he'd give up faster than fucking doing drawabox. If you told me he intentionally makes vague videos that approach good advice, but are actually useless as presented to purposefully destroy budding artists I'd believe you.

you're an artwod shill. his course (they updated it) is objectively bad because they want to make it into a really bad app with worksheets that leave you second guessing your answers.

They are, you nimrod. I think you missed the part where the creator of the course failed his own course and his boyfriend admitted he skipped parts of the course until they implemented a "feature" to prevent skipping ahead. How does that put trust in the students when the creators behind the material dilly dally around their own content?

And how and why on Gods green planet would you learn to draw anime from someone who admits he hates anime? It's not like it's a guest instructor, either. HE is the one teaching the anime portrait class. Pure snake oil.

Because art education for the "absolute beginner" is largely a lie. I'd wager that 75%+ of people who follow these courses aren't really actual beginners, but rather scrubs who have been drawing for years and just convince themselves that they haven't been taking it seriously or somesuch to explain why they still suck despite having studied more and drawn for a longer period of time than some pros. They just bounce around from program to program, maybe completing some, dropping out of others halfway through, but never really improving, instead just getting stuck in perpetual grinds, searching for the one magical program which will finally make them better. The reality is that a lot of good artists naturally make it through the beginner phase on their own through natural talent and just drawing what they want, then use more advanced education to refine those skills, same reason why art schools have portfolio requirements for admittance, even though their supposed aim is to teach you to draw, because they know that you need a base level of natural skill to really get much out of art education. It's like somebody wanting to become a bodybuilder, but needing education for the basic fundamentals of how to move one's arms and legs, how to use one's hands to grasp an object, how to stand without falling over, etc. You're probably so far behind the curve that sure, maybe you can "learn" some of these things, but your natural skill is so very low that at best you can strive to complete a single shaky bodyweight half squat or curl the pink dumbbells without falling over.

Yeah basically. He caught my eye because of the chaotic lines. He does do block-ins with thicker brushes but he just keeps painting and sketching over and over until he's satisfied, without much regard for it being clean until he needs it to be. Kind of liberating to watch.

Exactly what I said. Most art instruction for the absolute beginner is largely worthless, and if you're somebody who has to make use of it, chances are you're never going to "make it." And seriously, if you ask the average person taking an "absolute beginner" type of art course, odds are they aren't a beginner, but in fact a NGMI who has been drawing for years and has little to show for it, who if they complete the course will still suck, draw for a few more months/years, before seeking out the next hot new "absolute beginner" course thinking THIS ONE will finally be THE one that pulls them out of the drawing-for-15++-years-but-still-beg doldrums. Seriously, why do you think there are people on here who seem to have wide knowledge of a bunch of beginner courses? Probably because they've been around here and seeking art education for many years but still suck dogdick.

I've been drawing for a long time and just pop in from time to time. I'm fully blackpilled on the realities of art progress and how some people just have the talent and some don't, and that no amount of course grinding will pull the permabeg much above low-intermediate skill.

Whatever makes you feel better, bro. I'm sure Draw A Box Version 4.0 or ArtWod or some forgotten art book from the 1940s that people will rediscover later this year will finally be the course(s) that help all the permaprebeggers finally improve their skills despite failing at all the other beginner courses they've tried

See, this is what I mean by cringe. You're signaling that you're a massive loser. Just say it sucks and move on like most pre-begs here instead of going on a neckbeard diatribe like you keep doing.

For some reason and I don't know why but people treat learning art so much different from learning anything else even when the instruction is written as clear as day. It's so bizarre.

You can get the advice, "practice basic forms, study a single subject a bunch, analyze professional level work you admire" anywhere. I get that it's click bait, but this isn't an art hack, it's just one sentence of decent advice stretched out into an algorithm friendly ~15 minutes. I think the curriculum he's trying to put them in is completely useless. What would be good is showing some examples of art that lacks understand of form. going over his thought process as he analyzes a complex object and breaks it into forms. Showing how he analyzes a style and then applies it to a subject he's studying. It's real advice given out in a vague enough way to funnel people to his courses. It's a lame AD disguised as well meaning advice Say what you want about Proko, but at least I post enough free actual lessons from my courses that someone could use as a full curriculum.
