Freely Develop Characters
an introduction to the basics
From a stick figure to the spatial representation of a figure, it's actually not that difficult!
You also don't need to have studied anatomy to find a suitable posture for your figure on a greeting card or for a humorous commentary on world events.
You can give your character an expressive posture and learn to recognize the appropriate angle. Your spatial vision will improve in this course, so that you will soon be able to draw figures from different directions — even when moving. And their facial expressions can also be drawn relatively easily from different directions if the foreshortening is properly understood.
What is being practiced? - Sensibility to attitudes and dynamics
- Spatial awareness
- Understanding of perspective and foreshortening
- Choose the best viewing angle
Suitable for beginners
Material: drawing paper, transparent or semi-transparent sketching paper, pencils (B-2B), eraser, drawing pencils (e.g. fineliner, pen), colored pencils or watercolors for coloring.
