I wish people understood that this is called a study instead of calling it copying.

Hiya Mohammed. Thank you for featuring my work in your video! Tbh I was very scared when I heard about this video, but you painted everyone in such a positive light! I really appreciate your in-depth breakdown of the artists.

I'd hope i can do the same too, Borrowing other artists' artstyles and then we blend it together to make our own and improve

I like SamDoesArts but I confess I don’t understand why his account is SO popular. I think it’s because it’s simplified & high-contrast so it translates easily on Instagram/ mobile/ small screens. I enjoy more complex work like WLOP & the MTG artists like Clint Cearley, etc., & that cannot be fully appreciate on social media except maybe art station (which we’re all migrating away from). When people tell me they want to be an IG artist I suggest they study Sam & Loish ofc

I personally don’t like copied art styles. I know everyone says no art style is original, yada yada. But certain popular artists art stick out for a specific reason, their ART STYLE. I’ve already seen a few sakimichan copies. I just wait till these artists are over this copy phase and develop their own style eventually lol.

Every time i've ever unsubbed from you i've eventually made my way back because even if i'm not so interested in drawing anymore your commentaries are great for background audio, keep up the good work.

While I personally think you can draw/paint whatever, I would never want to be known as an artist who is only good at emulating another artist.

Personally I'm not a fan of Sam's art, but it's great to see so many of these artists, initially copying Sam, begin to develop their own unique styles. Fundamentals is always more important than stylization, I'm glad artists are beginning to realize that.

Some people get too caught up in the idea that their artstyle needs to be unique and that it's bad to draw the same way as someone else. You should draw in whatever styles you enjoy. Over time, people's styles can develop into something new, but if an artist comes back to a particular style over and over because they like it, that's fine too.

for anyone who get how artists become as good with their skill, knows how many hours we spend studying our idols (artists with an artstyle we admire). We credit them, we want to learn from them and become an artist of our own. It is called study, not copy (unless you pretend to be them, then it is plagiarism, and can be takem to court). I have even seen a study or "copy" as some would call of a van gogh portrait, hanging in a museum, done by someone from that timw who admired van goghs art wheb he still was unknown and alive. It was mentioned "study of Van goghs self portrait by ___" The use of studies to improve your art has been a technique used by painters and artists for hundreds of years, so stop shunning people, especially young artists whose confidence can be shattered by the toxic masses on the internet. For those who pretend to be the artist themself, no mercy though.

You're actually praising them and giving tips to people that use 'Samdoesart' as their art parents. Whew, thank God. Please do not bring back the 'ZOMGyoustolemypose,colourpalette,style!11' that plagued DA. People seem to forget people didn't just get good over night. They got inspired by an artist they liked and they /shock horror/ *copied* from them. It's nice to see artists actually being not only transparent about this, but encouraging it. There is a difference in 'stealing to learn' and 'stealing to plagiarise'. One is a natural part of learning and basis for most creative endeavours, the other; the artistic equivalent of stolen valour. Not only are you duping your audience about your abilities, you're also depriving yourself of learning and finding out your own artist path. Wish I saw this as a teen, but hey.

When you want to draw like someone or have a similar art style thats fine, But i think its important to have your own personal and recognizable art style❤

Ooh, i'm looking forward to this video, I enjoy listening to you❤

the same face syndrome is so unappealing to me because you cant get out of your comfort box to actually make different or unique art

I'll just add on to what you've already said beautifully! I believe that there are some improvements that be taken from copying an artist's style but you may also copy the mistakes they make that may not be quite obvious to you so Trying moving on and study other artists too, be your own unique artists just like how everyone voice is different, that's how everyone's art is Art is very broad and as such you never stop learning, so keep at it and always be hungry for more ✨ . . . . . . . . . Now with that smart inspirational stuff out of the way, Hii mohki~~

Had no idea anything about samdoesart but holy dang I love all these artists expecially Sukudraws. Thank you so much for sharing these profiles!

❤love your vids man!

Love the title!

I love all those improves.

AWESOME VID ONCE AGAIN!!

yeye I know you technically cant copyright a artstyle etc. But lets be honest, when some artists build their whole art accounts around copying a single artists work to the point people could confuse the two.... it crosses at least some moral line imo

Cindy is one of my favorites out there! I was part of her patreon for a while and she is amazing! Also another artist that is heavily inspired by Sam but it's gradually finding her own style is auwkaktusek.

So far, beautiful 🤩

Accidentally clicked on this during work. Now I want to do some painting T_T

I remember the first time you mentioned my page, i guess it was like 4 years ago XD .... i wish you see me now :) thanks alot for helping other artists 😍

Honestly all art styles are inspired by other artists. Everyone's is always evolving, but if you take and drawing that's not yours and claim it as your own that's not right. But to take inspiration isn't bad and I feel, it doesn't always have to be credited all the time. There is no first time art style or certain way of doing art. It's all just a big circle and is ever evolving.

Wait, but that first artist, the pics used in the thumbnail, those are pics of Natalie Portman in the movie, Léon: The Professional. So the question is, is it a study of Sam’s drawing or is it depicting the same thing in his own style? And just as a point of curiosity, if it is a study of Sam’s drawing do the ways in which the second drawing deviates from the first bring it closer to the original reference shot from the movie? It’s been a long time since I’ve seen the movie, so I don’t know. But it’s worth thinking about.

I don't like to see whole art styles copied. I follow an artist and once I stumbled upon an account that looked like hers in style, almost identical. It came up on my feed a few more times and at first glance I always thought it was the artist I follow, but the name was different and the subjects also, since the artist I follow has more versatile subjects. It made me feel kinda off, because most of the style traits were right there. I don't know how they're doing now, this was maybe last year. But I went through their profile and way far down the style was still the same. It's not a good choice to keep working in someone else's style. In better cases people kinda grow out of them while their own style develops.

multiple people copying an artists artstyle is what creates a new "genre" or whatever. Copying the style is fine, because that lets it grow it's own branches, because everybody will still draw a little bit differently from eachother. Copying the art itself is something else though. not interested in weatching the video just wanted to say this cus yes

The pictures in the thumbnail are both copying a photo of natalie portman in The Professional. You can't copy a photo then say anyone else who does is copying the copy

My artsyle is so boring right now but I've been wanting to do art studies of my favorite artists but I keep forgetting that i have other projects I've already started lol hopefully one day I'll try to tackle it

It looks like several of these artists talk about tutorials in patreon- I myself do this with the artists I admire that offer this. Studies help artists step in the other artist's shoes and then later they can distill down how they want to incorporate ideas/skills into their own work. I love many artists on here, including Sam. I do animals and landscapes in traditional mediums, but I still learn so much from so many about color, light, personality, etc.

I hold a firm stance I like samdoesart's art I liked him more when he focused more on art and less being an influencer I also think it's weird how hard he defends koleen.

some artists just take some parts, there are styles, or they just suffer from it, here are all the examples that were in the video

There’s another person by the name of Tazakart who also copies Samdoesart to near identical style, he hasn’t changed his art style nor will he I guess.

epic commentary so far

so much disney art

This is such a normal concept. Even in art classes you maybe assigned to copy a work of art. You copy pieces as a means of study and practice to help develop your own style. Didn’t artist have apprenticeships back in the day? I’m sure those apprentices did the same thing and were critiqued.

I’m editing this comment because I can.

🎉🎉

Why i cant blame people hiding gatekeeping there tools and process away from the masses

The problem with copying a distinctive art style is that people end up thinking any work you make using that art style is just another work of the artist you copied.

You have a nice voice

samdoesart got MULTIPLE sons😭

studying other artists is a good way to learn. as they say, all great artists steal right? Honestly im glad im not a popular artist on social media with a huge following, i can’t fathom my own style being replicated by others, even though its touching, still weird since art is so personal to me and seeing something similar to what i draw and how i draw being replicated

Art is hard😢

Interesting 🤔

The real art actually looks better

That guy def did not create that artstyle lmao

"CONSEQUENCES!", -Key and Peele

When I first started out drawing I kept drawing pretty girls like this one artist I really admire. After a while, I noticed all my drawings had the same face and they kind of felt dead to me. Now I'm struggling to learn to draw full body and other than pretty girls. It feels like I'm starting back to zero but more rewarding than before because I finally understand what I'm doing lol

As an artist 2d AND 3d go hand and hand

i will ALWAYS stick by what Ethan becker said about art style. nothing is original, and by copying techniques of a variety of different artists is probably the best way to make your own style. Too many ppl feel personally attacked just because someone *else* is mimicking Sam's skills 😭. its not that deep. Great vid tho mohammed, i love your takes, as always :)

Tbh seeing people trying to be a copy of him (Art) made me angry all the way, I draw others style sometimes but this is to get some confident, I remember seeing Artists who drew his art in my feed and this was toooo much that time.

At the end of this video i asked myself Did i just watched clickbait or no?🤔

❤🎉🎉

Are people forgetting how we learn to draw?? Almost everyone who is into art started by copying something they liked (for people my age it was mlp, weird sonic ocs, monster high…). If I didn’t start by copying vivzie pop when I was 12 I wouldn’t have the hyper colorful cartoon style I have now, a decade later. It’s not recognisable anymore, but I know where I started and what I liked about it. Now when I see people with similar style as mine I love to try some of their techniques to improve. Nothing is original, we just blend all of our inspirations together, and it’s great

I love SamDoesArts because of how he helped so many people.. Including myself. I'm glad that I found his channel early on in my art journey, since it really inspired me to draw more, to one day, get at his level. Some helpful channels that also give good tips are Ethan Becker (Anatomy tips are great), lavendertown (Good tips for cartoony artstyles), DrawingWiffWaffles (Same as LavenderTown), and.. Mohammed Agbadi (For inspiration, art studies of his art, and to learn what's happening in the art community.)

I can draw decent pictures using a pencil on paper. but as soon as I try my tablet I turn into a moron artist.

oh i'm rather late to this one. I missed the notifications :( not yay...

meanwhile I draw in a very strange style xD BUT I ENJOY IT

Hey yall

Wow there really is an Instagram girl art style

🎉🎉 1:29

the first one honestly looks good, but the character has skin cancer 😭, which is caused by imbalanced lighting distribution

Sam and the buncha little Sammies

What is the point of this video?

Wait, we are supposed to study from other artist? Damn, I never do that because I do everything my mind told me to draw and just simply bring it to l,ife...

HII :3!!

Noot noot

It's perfectly subjective but I find his(Sam) art so uncanny and kind of rancid, idk why. Maybe it's the weird proportions of the face and shading.

Omg LOL thank you Mohammed for including me in this video😭💜🥹 I definitely learned A LOT from Sam! Anyone saying “copying another artists style is bad” don't want to see you progress! I'm glad I did it and so honored to be mentioned by you🥹💜

Guh

epok

YOOOOOOOOO

Early

the pc release having splitscreen alone is worth the 30$ imo

Mogetslucky

mid ''art'' with nothing to say but cute girls, at least Sam is good but these? lol

Landscape not background 😅

Jesus loves you

They're all so boring

Oh hey Josh_draws2099. Thats me 🤣🤣🤣

HII

I call Samdoesarts art style the "Instagram's Generic Realistic Anime Style" and I find it very uninteresting personally, but if it helps people learn to draw by studying it then go off. Nothing wrong if you like it, but just not for me. 🫠
