Rather than starting with anatomy, this course builds a cartoon figure from simple three-dimensional shapes. The method gives you a solid base for designing your own characters later, and the rubber hose style keeps the figure simple enough to pose and shade.
The style was made popular by Max Fleischer and Walt Disney, and it lets a figure be posed dynamically, colored and shaded without mastering fine anatomy. That makes it a sensible first step for anyone who finds realistic figure work daunting.
A printable workbook is included, so you can follow the drawing steps on paper as the instructor works through them. The description also points to follow-on courses for more advanced cartoon techniques.
No previous drawing knowledge is required to start. This course is designed for the absolute beginner in mind so we will be beginning from square one.
In this course you will learn to think like an artist and draw a cartoon guy named Tommy Toon by building up simple 3D shapes. This will give you some firm groundwork to begin learning how to design your own characters and draw from your head.
Drawing cartoons is a great first step in learning to draw without fully mastering anatomy and texture detail. Using the rubber hose style made popular by figures such as Max Fleischer and Walt Disney, you can achieve a 3D figure that can be posed dynamically, colored, and shaded.
If you like this course and want to dive further into the topic, look for my "Ultimate Cartoon Drawing" and "How to Draw Dynamic Stickmen" courses where I teach more advanced techniques that build on this method. Let's bring your characters to the next level!
