Is Kim Jung gi autistic? Is that the only way to be as good as him?
>>2355640
>It's so farfetched to believe that someone who practices countless hours every day can master something!
He's not as autistic as this thread.
was he artistic?
>>2355652
You mean photographic memory? Also, there was just another thread about a guy who went up in a helicopter and drew out the entirety of New York City. Kim Jung Gi's not the guy you're thinking of.
>>2355656
Whoops, you're probably right.
I think he isn't, my idea about this situation is exactly that nature sometimes benefit some people, thats genetics.
No, i'm not trying to bait and I'm not talking about TALENT, I'm just trying to make you guys that we're also a part of nature, and we're also animals.
>mfw I have to dig this deep to explain my opinion
>no face
not just about art but about almost everything, for 100k musicians you maybe have one that is a 5y.o boy or girl or whatever that is good as the old masters, the same for artists, physicists, you name it.
It's not that you can't learn how to draw or anything like that, I'm just saying there is some few exact cases where the people develop his mind so fast that you don't even know anymore where it's going, Kim wasn't born with this "talent" but he was born with some kind of mental upgrade that makes him unique, and he uses this to do art
that's my opinion, not a fact
feel free to bash
>>2355669
> just trying to make you guys remember
fixed
>>2355652
that's certainly not kim jung gi, but a literally autist black guy
>and this is how rumors start
[spoiler]the word autist is red lined and when right clicking on it the first option is artist[/spoiler]
>>2355640
Sure, now go slam your head on the pavement and hope you get some good brain damage.

>>2355856
He hasn't learned chromatic aberration yet
>>2355640
Yes you have to be autistic to be able to practice as much as he did
>>2355640
Amazing how everyone is fooled by this video.
>compose large drawing in PC
>get white wall
>project and train each figure with pencils or anything that can be easily erased
> film yourself 'drawing' the entire composition at once without skeletons and you´re set
I don't think he's autistic because he was in the army.
And surely he doesn't have photographic memory because he said that he spent a lot of time studying his subjects so he can draw them from every angle.
He might as well be. It seems that autists are like apex masters of art world.
Conclusion: You will never be good and earn money because industry will just ship some autistic nigger from bumfuck nowhere that will work for a bowl of rice because it is what he does since being 5 and doesn't see people but nails, hair, strains of cells that make retinas etc.

>>2355896
you're an idiot.
>autists
>this retard again
everytime
He drawing for 40 years + photographic memory
He got hit in the head with a baseball as a kid.
>>2355896
He does that shit at conventions with loads of people watching him, you stupid fuck.
>>2355965
>photographic memory
Stop undermining his hard work and dedication you piece of shit. Photographic memory isn't even real
>>2355996
>Photographic memory isn't even real
Wishful thinking doesn't help you. People not equal. And why talent is "undermining"?
>>2356003
Not him, but you have no idea whether or not KJG has photographic memory, he never said he did. I'm sure he has very good memory and trained it even further by constantly being observant and drawing from life for several decades. Assuming he has photographic memory is just an easy way for losers like you to feel better about themselves. After all, you don't have photographic memory, so it's not your fault you suck, right?
>>2356020
You think photographic memory is some magic or what? I don't even attack Kim Jung, you fuckin degenerate. Learn to read.
>>2356027
Are you retarded or something? I know photographic memory is real, but to assume that someone has it just because they are very good at drawing is utterly retarded. Especially when they are known for filling sketchbook after sketchbook with life drawings for several decades. That's how KJG self-admittedly trained his memory, by constantly observing and studying life and then redrawing the things he observed from different angles. You don't need photographic memory for that, you stupid fuck.
>>2356027
Calm down there irritated ire, he was saying that Kim doesn't have photogenic memory
>>2356020
>>2356047
Lets turn the insults down a notch scornful slander, this thread is retarded shouldn't even exist
didn't he used to draw 50 pages a day when he was in highschool?
hard work and dedication aren't a super power or a deformity.
you might as well ask if body builders are autistic
it's pretty funny that people have turned debilitating sensory issues into the new weasel word for 'talent'
the reason you aren't good isn't because you lack talent or superpowers, it's because you don't try.
start by doing 50 pages a day and see where you end up.
>>2355640
autism != savantism
>>2355652
He doesn't have a photographic memory. He came to LA last summer for a lecture and someone asked him that specific question.
ofc he is autistic, look at how all of his stuff is just some 'cool' scenes that doesent capture any emotion whatsoever
>>2356118
and? that's a far cry from tracing a projection
>>2356140
4/10, almost made me respond seriously
>>2355905
so just because you're from somewhere makes you more important?
fucking fag kill urself baka desu senpai

>You will never be good/autistic/nigger/autists
Got any more buzzwords you want to throw at us pham?
>>2355669
Underrated.
>Autist
>FUCKING UNBELIEVABLE.
YOU MORONS.
EVERY FUCKER COULD DRAW LIKE HIM IF
>draws since fucking 35 years
just practice for so long and you will see
>>2356253
I'm 50 and I've been drawing since I was 5.
I'm not as good as him, maybe I'm autistic.
>>2355965
where did you get these dank references
>>2355640
OP
Listen to me,
first of all ,
there are many many other artists that are as good as Kim, they just don't show it off because they have a job. Their job id not live drawing.
There are many animators in Japan that are as good and better than him simply because they have been drawing and animating for 40 years.
Hiroyuki Okiura as example.
Chill out, and just keep studying.
>>2356258
post your work, curious to see how 45 yars of skill looks like
I fucking hate these "Is ____ autistic?" threads. NO THEY AREN'T. You are just trying to find an excuse to suck. If they're autistic that means you're still better than them right? Or it's not your fault for being so bad they have an advantage right? Fuck off. If you want to be good fucking get off 4chan and start drawing.
They wouldn't have let him in the military if he was autistic
you can learn from somebody who can do the same thing, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NzBmmU24ssg
Peter Han teaches at The Art Center, Concept Design Academy and CGMA
There's a huge difference between deliberate practice and "I'm just gonna draw whatever and not learn from my mistakes.". Photographic memory and proper understanding of how light and perspective works probably also helps a lot. Add years and years of practice to that and you got a fucking cocktail of excellent ability. So stop making excuses and draw already.
>>2356326
What the hell? Shit looks identical to KJG.
>>2356326
Fucking asians, man.
>>2355640
Lol I have diagnosed autism and I'm not even 1/8 as good as him.
>>2355856
>Ilya Kuvshinov'
this dude needs a camera
>>2355856
And he draws fan art in a generic animu style and was caught being a borderline plagiarist.
What a waste T B H.
>>2356352
not everyone is born with a artistic soul
some are just mechanics with no clue
I had the pleasure of seeing Kim jung gi live. I watched him drawing for over two hours from ten feet away. It was surreal. His business cards are stunning to boot. If you buy one of his sketch collections ($110 I think his 2011 version was) , he sketches inside. But you can't request something or its considered a commission. He did what I can only describe as an Asian woodsman in mine. Overall great event. Would go to again.
well he's definitely not aRtistic cause his stuff sucks lol. maybe you have to be autistic to enjoy it, you might be onto something OP
>>2356544
If this is what passes for bait on /ic/ I need to reconsider a lot about my life
>>2356118
Bush did 9/11 too dude.
I think I saw him in a massive black event a long time ago (unless it was someone else but I don't think so). it's surreal seeing him draw in real life.
>>2356093
Shut the fuck up you fucking faggot, he's literally one person in the entire world that can do what he does. If you're gonna deny talent at this point. Literally quit, quit everything.
>>2357100
I mean, if he's telling the truth that's a pretty impressive output. You'd be hard pressed to find somebody else that draws that much.
>mon visage
>>2357101
There was one guy i saw at a convention that showed up to his portfolio review with a blank roll of butcher paper. When his turn came up he threw it on the ground red carpet-style and drew in pen for a yard until the guy told him to stop. He could complete a composition in the time it takes you to post a message on 4chan. No,he didnt have a photographic memory or was autistic either.
>>2357078
was it massive black 2013?
>>2355640
Why do you guys suck this guy's dick so hard in a word were Michelangelo lived?
As for Kim Jung manga style, I prefer Takehiko Inoue.
>>2357388
>a word
*a world
>>2356003
Photographic memory has never been proven to exist. Not to mention it probably can't exist since every memory you have is false. Every memory that people have is a skewed recollection of an event. Photographic memory is to recall an event perfectly like a video or picture, which just isn't possible.
>>2356344
>muh genetics
no, you're just bad
>>2357388
Why do you guys suck Michelangelo's dick so hard in a world were Kim Jung Gi lives?
>>2355640
i heard he got hit in the head with a baseball as a kid
>>2358519
Because Michelangelo is a much greater artist
>>2360417
for a guy who just copy from life so much that he draws guys with boobs cause he couldn't draw girls from imagination.
>>2360426
not sure if jelly, troll or really just stupid.
The David, the Pietà and the Sistine Chappell ceiling are probably the greatest works of art ever created.
>>2360428
the large head small body, the girl covered in heavy drapery to hide man body and look ma I can paint on roofs should be hardly considered to be even be called art.
Michelangelo > kim jung shit
That is a FACT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>2360431
Just going to borrow this anon post:
>>2360437
>He used drawing as source for greater works (immortal frescoes and sculptures), while this Asian guy can’t get out of his comfort zone of drawing comic-like cartoons. This Asian guy is an artist for kids: he seems incapable of growing up.
Grow up you fucking man-child.

I know this is fucking shitposting but why did I laugh so hard.
also, about that question, a few of the anons above have the idea, he is not autistic, he is skilled, draw so much it becomes natural to you and master the media as much as you can.
And no, talent hasn't do shit to do, people should really start saying hard working instead of talented so you don't get these ideas of someone who has magic skills to make everything he likes with little effort.
>>2360504
Again 1 In a billion. It's not just hard work because you say so kid. Grow up.
>>2360426
>>2360431
/ic/ in a nutshell, not even Michelangelo is safe.
>>2360506
If what that anon said is true about how much he drew in highschool and how much he draws today than he very well might be the person that draws the most in the entire world family man
>michelangelo vs kim jung gi wrestling in oil paint
I'd watch it
>>2360506
you're not gonna make it.
I wish someone would do a full translation of his class. The translator botched up this one.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUFGe-4k6dU
But from what I understand, he has mastered the cube.
What I mean is, in Asia, they have this thing called mental abacus.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mental_abacus
They literally memorize all the positions possible in an abacus and thus can use it mentally. They become human calculators.
Kim says that he has mastered the cube. I believe he can just visualize cubes in all possible angles and distances. Without needing to think on vanishing points. And then he just fills them in.
It's not the same as being able to do it with a ruler.
