Good question, @gman_arts! I think it depends on the style of cartoon that you’re going for. If it’s realism-based cartoons (think of Disney movie characters or comics superheroes), then, yes, it’s essential to be very familiar with realistic anatomy because those kind of stylizations rely deeply on it and require anatomical believabilty. For a more simple-shaped or stick-figure kind of cartoon (think of South Park or Peppa Pig), then I’d say it’s not necessary to delve into anatomy - although it might still help to know basic figure construction so you can maintain proportions and know where to place each part of the body, even if stylized. Hope this helps!

Hey, @pinkapricorn! 😄 I remember those early days back when student feedbacks were handled through email - feels like forever ago, haha! I’m glad our conversations were helpful to you back then. I’m doing well, thanks for asking! I’m still contributing with critiques and feedbacks here through the site, it’s been great as always. And, as you’ve seen, I’ve also had the pleasure to start making videos of my own with the Proko team support, it’s been quite a journey! This video was the first one, and we’re currently outlining new videos in the structure of a course. Hopefully, we’ll be able to release new content sooner than later. 🙂 Thanks for getting in touch! What about you, how’ve you been?
