Help! I need to know what courses are recommended for a certain style of art!

[Josh Cardon]

Hello everyone! I’m new to NMA and i’m really liking all the content so far! There’s so much material that it’s causing me to have one issue. I don’t know where to start. I feel like i have a decent grasp of fundamentals but i want to start drawing what i love now. I am heavily inspired by renessaince and pin up girls. Paul Rubins the three graces, and the beautiful pin ups of gil elvgren. I just want to know what courses i should start for a semi-intermediate artist. I see many courses but it’s so overwhelming to choose lol. Here is some examples of the art i dream of achieving!

Hey Josh,

I totally see where you are coming from, and honestly I think you would really enjoy Mark Westermoe’s Reilly method courses, as well as Glen Vilppu’s figure drawing courses. Glen even has some helpful stand alone videos here on NMA where he breaks down some of Ruben’s drawings, so those are definitely worth a look as well. Another great set is Steve Huston’s advanced head drawing courses, which have lessons on drawing idealized male and female heads and hairstyles. Hope this was useful!
