Story Driven Shapes: Character Design Tips with David Colman
comments 2
Thanks David, great insights. Really good advice there of the need to still understand the structure underneath what you're drawing, even if the drawing is not scientific. I remember hearing this about Manga as well, it takes really strong understanding of anatomy to simplify it well.
LESSON NOTES
David's Doodles gives you advice on how to create a story behind your character designs. In this lesson you’ll learn to capture who your characters are and how your design choices create a history and personality for them. David shows you how he achieves this by sketching this process with a couple monkeys and talking about his thought process behind designing the shapes for the characters.
