The Webcomics Challenge: How to Create Stylized Characters

What does it take to draw the perfect comic character? Join Kienan Lafferty (of the webcomic EMMA: Little Girl Versus the Walking Dead) and learn how to create guy and girl characters that are totally unique and totally awesome. This class is a detailed, in-depth look at drawing heads, bodies, and clothes for both genders. Along the way, Kienan includes a number of Photoshop tricks, making this class perfect for beginning and experienced illustrators alike. By the end, you'll create your very own 2 characters — fully inked, masked, colored, and ready for a webcomic!
