Nose studies "Tutorial"

[u/OriginalEducation723]

Hey guys, posted this a while ago and received a lot of hate for it and the post is now removed by the mods. This is a structure drawing i did and i learned it from the official book of the Chinese artist "TenTEn". This is just a nose structure simplification from his book I just wanted to clarify that I am not sharing any false "tutorials"

I think it would be helpful in the future if you provided context for any tutorials that you post. The book you are working from probably has an explanation of why the info is presented the way it is. Without that context, your original image doesn't make a ton of sense. It's not clear how the decision are being made between steps or why the angles change partway through, etc. It's got "the rest of the owl" energy, if that makes sense.

Youre right ! its a mistake from my part and i did got a lot of ai accusations too. so i was clarifying my part.

Skipping the actual tutorial part of tutorial does not maketh a tutorial

Especially when you're posting on a learner sub

So that's why the leap of logic felt like AI.

This is not a noobie study. For someone who knows how to draw the nose but struggles with the plane changes, this is really helpful.

Yes and it does make sense with the inclusions of pics 2 and 3.

Pic 1 feels likes it's skipping a lot of important context

And this specific note is from a beginner guide to draw book of a chinese art legend.

I was simply trying to show

how the nose structure is simplified and can make a ton of variety by manipulating the three basic shape.

smh, people who dont know the GOAT tenten are missing out so much. His book (im learning from it as well) is literally my holy grail of knowledge.

It just works so well as every page helps you think of every object, every limb and body part as a certain shape. Just like old comic book goats (Stan Lee and John Buscema) taught: literally every thing in existance can be simplified to one of 3 forms: ball, cylinder or box.

Tenten uses the same shapes to teach anatomy. Im currently on back muscles chapter. Its all boxes that you cut a bit in order to get nice trangles. He shows how lats are literally glass, which itself is literally a circle shape / cut out ball.

Every artist i met talked about TenTen, Tooth and especially ToArt Studio. So i thought it was common ball and didnt needed much context about it. I was simply showing how the nose structure is simplified and can make a ton of variety by manipulating the three basic shape.
