How to Draw a Dog from the Inside Out / Drawing for Animation / Gesture Drawing / Russ Edmonds
Learn how to draw a dog from a traditional Disney veteran animator who created and animated many Disney dogs in classic feature films. This video shows you the best way to draw and animate a dog from the inside out, meaning gesture drawing first. Save yourself time and trouble and learn how to draw a dog correctly. These are the same methods I learned from the animation masters, and I am passing this knowledge to you. This is a must-know for the 2d and 3d animator, story artist, rigger, modeler, wildlife painter, character designer, sketch artist, visual development artist, illustrator, and animal lover, to name a few.
