As promised, I finally got enough content to do this ask some justice. I’ve really enjoyed working on this, this week, so if any of you guys ever have more requests like this or the music one I did a few weeks ago, I’m almost always down to give them a go.
Anyway, I don’t have to tell you all how many character design tuts there are out there on the internets today, with a lot of them much more comprehensive and detailed than this, but this is me and this is how I do things. Recommended supplements to this how-to guide include:
For beginners especially, the rules for how heads and bodies are generally composed on human beings... Go here.
For those of you who want to know some basics about drawing realistic humans, or more about human beings from an artist’s perspective... Go here.
Want some quick pointers on diversity in your humans? Go here.
Adding movement and dynamics to a character? Go here.
You want a little guy you can pose and work with on your computer machine? Check this one out!
As always, hope these tutorials are of use to you guys. Thanks for the original question, anon!
