LESSON NOTES
What's in Premium?
I will show you how to analyze character designs using two contrasting characters from Arcane. We will look at how shape language and clothing choices communicate a character's archetype and psychology. You will learn how to use value bracketing to control where the viewer looks. I explain how keeping lower body values muted, forces the eye up toward the face and hands. We also compare a stable character with an unstable character to see how asymmetry and costume details tell a story. Instead of just rendering perfect folds, you will learn how to use drapery and shape to build characters that clearly communicate their personality.

Great character design is about psychology.
Studying the shapes and values of characters from Arcane shows how costumes reveal their mindset. Focus on how drapery guides the eye to tell a story instead of rendering perfect folds.
