Cartoon Character Design for Beginners

Caution: children should use child-safe art supplies. I've got a very useful video for you today, which has many tips and tricks for drawing and inventing your own, original characters. And for the subject, I'm going to be using a retro style dog character, which I've turned into the famous "clueless dad" character (I confess that I am one). Here are the techniques I'm going to demonstrate: anthropomorphism, which is a fancy word that means to imbue an animal with human-type characteristics. This is very popular in cartooning. We'll also see how to use stereotypes to create instantly recognizable character types. He'll have the "dad pipe," the dad "smoking jacket" the dad "glasses," and the dad "tail." Well, this one has a tail! I'll narrate at an easy pace so you can follow along. please join me for some drawing fun and concepts, and subscribe. New videos uploaded each Monday.
