Course Description

Overview

Learn the foundational techniques for designing a comic book character in this 53-minute drawing demonstration focusing on Goliath, a brutish behemoth from the Replicator series. Establish the character's pose, proportions, and placement while defining muscle mass and volume. Explore the drafting stage through experimentation, allowing for mistakes and corrections to achieve the ideal representation. Refine the drawing by finessing outlines, contouring design elements, and defining anatomy. Master the use of contours and line weights to add dimension based on lighting. Apply shadows to bring out forms, considering light source and muscle surface shapes. Gain insights into creating a polished character design sheet for comics using Photoshop.
