Drawing and Constructing the Head - New Course
Course: proko.com/hamptonhead
Introduction to figure construction: www.proko.com/s/FLC2?af=543975
My Book:
www.amazon.com/Figure-Drawing-Invention-Michael-Hampton/dp/0615272819/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?crid=STI7KTD9IMRI&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.Qqer02MpLzYDowPE7_cPM1I7X8f5eLGLFMSuOWb0xJCkCYI5zDI-oFIgAIVu8M4czKBaEQkCUWCQazM6q-5wANO_cqXA1J7_HiVzQ1BKw22F3azljs03uZJlJ-SqPVkZqKlxHcmA6yDUIXp_zD0_GYYKgP5koKVoaDluNfhZPznZjtMWXDanF-sPCu1pfTbBOH8C7otd7sW95hKNRHcLUQ.jNs0D0sWyMoam_GNis1HjBJhkqYCTc2ooe9hwUmjJ3E&dib_tag=se&keywords=figure+drawing+design+and+invention&qid=1710440000&sprefix=figure+dr%2Caps%2C159&sr=8-1
The fundamentals are a tricky subject that I think can be easily over complicated. If you can focus on learning the concepts covered in this video, you're on your way to becoming a really solid artist.

As someone who is taking on sketching at 60+ this was so helpful thank you very much for sharing your knowladge. Hopefully as a helpful critisizim I had some difficulty hearing you clearly but after I put on my headphones it was fine.
do you have any courses on drawing animals?
Unfortunately, not.
Great video thanks for sharing your knowledge
No podría hacer algo a si
Thank you for your techniques master ❤. Helped me a lot in constructive drawing
Amazing!!
Now THIS is a true teacher for beginner artists. "Its not a contour" and all of a sudden everything clicked
😭😭😭 THANKS SO MUCH!
Just pre-ordered, can't wait to learn from this course!
Ohh I am actually going thorugh that topic with the stuff included in your book.
Is this similar to the Loomis head?
Yes. I'd say so.
I bought the book. It moves through things too fast and expect you to be above a level than what it actually teaches you how to do. Couldn't get the knowledge I wanted from it
Sorry to hear that.
I was like this at first, but after practicing everyday and knowing well how he uses his method it will all click and make sense to you! If you didn’t understand it, I’d suggest you studying from his UA-cam while as well reading his book, trust me it will differ to you and you’ll see improvements. I have been struggling to draw figure forever but Hampton’s method really helped me to overcome this issue, I wish you all the best 🌸😊
Oh I need it! ❤️
Hold on babe, Michael Hampton just posted
Check out my courses on proko: Head Construction: proko.com/hamptonhead Introduction to figure construction: www.proko.com/s/FLC2?af=543975
Btw, are the Proko courses the same as your free lessons on UA-cam?
@@Germania9 It's a new course that we recorded in the Proko studio!
@@seanramsey Awesome! Thanks!
@@stevenmichaelhampton Thanks for the reply! Looking forward to your launch!
Thank you so much, Mike!! No more I have to wait for next season on CGMA for your course, I can just get them from Proko. This is just amazing!!
I'm not good at drawing freehand. Got any tips?
More basic sketching practice. Lines, ellipses, spheres, planes, etc.
I'm looking forward to learn from you as this videos are really helping me, but I can't afford both your book which everybody recommends and this proko course which looks great. Which one would you recommend me (an intermedish beginner) to go for first?
Thank you! I'm so glad to hear this has helped you out. It really depends on if you prefer learning through video or book. The video course covers a lot but doesn't address some topics the book does. I don't know lol. Sorry to not be more helpful.
I have been working on your methods every day from your book, and finding them extremely useful - in this video you mention "homework" at some point, is this video a part of your proko course? Does the Proko course contain exercises/homework to do? Thanks again for being such a good teacher.
Some of these are older videos that I recorded during Covid. Students were doing homework assignments after watching.
In your book, when your illustrations portray a backhand, it's not shaped like a box of cards and more like a skateboard ramp. Is there a reason for this?
I build a roof with a peak on the top of the box of cards to represent the top of the hand. This is to reflect the pitch of the hand on top to the middle finger.
@@stevenmichaelhampton thanks
Thank you. What about feet and toes
ua-cam.com/users/shortsQZZjdKk8BIk
Michael, many thanks for your videos!
To Keep the things simples is the secret.😊
Have been finding your classes and book super helpful but I have a question - how big would you recommend doing the figures when doing 1 minute gesture drawing of loads of different poses? (on paper with pencil, not digital)
It depends but maybe the size of your palm or slightly larger?
@@stevenmichaelhampton Thank you so so much for the reply, wow!
Would you say most video game anatomy proportions are correct?
Not necessarily but that doesn't mean they're wrong. If something is intentionally stylized it doesn't mean that it's incorrect.
@@stevenmichaelhampton interesting
Like one of those blocks you play with as a child.
Two things I'm guilty of leaving vague are ears and the patella. Cool way of looking at it, thanks
wow! I never knew you had a channel. It is so much more reinforcing hearing you !!! ty.
Thank you for this 💚
Yes, is ver difficult to draw figure in motion,. Your tip, profesor hampton, they help us a lot.
I think the hardest part about figuring drawing is the transition from gesture to a shading
Hey, is that an original Jerome Witkin painting behind you? Nice!
YES! I love Witkin
@@stevenmichaelhampton I'm a huuuuge fan of his work too, obviously. He's got a book called "Life Lessons" and it's this teensy, tiny little volume of 8x10 inches or something, and half the images of his big ass paintings are black and white or 2/3 of the page is blank white space -- super disappointing honestly. Someone needs to publish an oversized picture book of his paintings. The dude's mega underrated. But hey, your book's pretty good. One of my faves :)
This is so helpful!
Gestural 2x4 is a great band name.
😂
wow didn't know u have yt now! may the yt algorithm god bless your channel.
If you weren’t nerdy I wouldn’t be subscribed. Keep it up
Heh so I guess Kristian has been editing your videos eh?
Lmao who is Kristian cause me think that person needs a raise 😂
Beautiful demonstration gyad 😩
thank you for this, the knee area is difficult for me, among many other areas of the body.
name or links to the anatomy models at your desk? i love them
www.anatomytools.com/ By far my absolute favorite company for anatomy courses and products.
@@stevenmichaelhampton I can see why. Thank you, Michael!
Recently purchased your figure drawing book and it’s been such a great help already. Thanks for uploading here too so we can watch this in real time and learn
Thank you so much for sharing, Michael. You make it easy to follow your thought process. I keep connecting dots I collected over the years, witch is amazing. But the best part is: Getting into resonance increases my motivation to draw. To just pick up a pencil and get going. This is fueled also by realising, that your "line work" in those exercises and preparations are sloppy. Its more like exploring rather then being precise. For me this helps a lot to get over the hump of "just starting". This tolerance to your own handiwork seems very important on the way to developing habits. Habits, that help rather then hinder your progress. I love that about your videos and the way you teach.
Thank you so much for the very articulate and considered feedback! Feedback like this makes putting these together and up feel more than worth it.
Amazing Mr. Hampton I bough your book a few years ago amazing resources. I noticed you are using an intuos pro. I also have a screenless tablet and want to ask how you get such smooth lines
Not too sure. I'm using a stock photoshop brush and making the settings favor pressure sensitivity is about it.
@@stevenmichaelhampton I see thanks just wanted to ask because i tend to struggle a bit with my pen tablet making the lines I want.
Fantastic video Mr Hampton, thank you so so much for continuing to make these invaluable episodes!
My pleasure! Glad you're finding them useful.
Hey Michael! I wanted to ask if you could do a little “line measurement” video like you talked a little here! I think the main problem for me is proportions due to not knowing which size the lines on the gesture drawing should be, so a little explanation on how long each should be on average would be awesome!
Did you get a chance to see this short? It might help with your question ua-cam.com/users/shortsClZelwWteI0
@@stevenmichaelhampton now I have! Thank you!
So awesome! Would you make another book??
Thanks for posting this
Very good tip. Using composition techniques you can capture the proportions correctly and also have a better grasp of the silhouette. PS: Also, can you share what is the model from the reference?
It's a photo pack from grafit studios grafitschool.gumroad.com/
@@stevenmichaelhampton Thanks!
All new to me and is immediately applicable. Thanks for posting this!
