It is necessary
- - album sheets;
- - pencil;
- - eraser.
Instructions
Step 1
Choose a storyline for the cartoon. It will be a funny story about the life of animals or a fairy tale about a princess, or an almost life story performed by inanimate objects.
Step 2
Draw cartoon characters. The main component will be their head and facial features. To keep the characters the same in all frames, sketch the head in the form of a circle, divided into four parts by vertical and horizontal centerlines. The upper part will be the eye area and the lower one will be the jaws. All other parts of the face will complement the base. Create several different looks by raising and lowering the horizontal head line. If you are drawing young characters, then lower such a line to the maximum to depict large, beautiful eyes. If, however, old people or negative characters, then raise the horizontal line high. Please note that the vertical line must not be touched.
Step 3
Draw the direction you need to turn the head with the nose, which will act as a directional arrow. Draw different facial expressions for the characters. Stand in front of a mirror and draw pencil sketches of the reflection you see, trying to portray anger, happiness, laughter, fear, surprise, etc.
Step 4
Draw a torso to the heroes, not always observing human proportions. Place your legs wide for a massive character and place them side by side for a miniature crumb.
Step 5
Draw heroes in motion. First draw a main long line to represent the direction of the shape. Starting from this line, add parts of the body so that the line of the spine coincides with the main line.
Step 6
Draw the animals. Depict each character unmistakably recognizable. Crocodile - hungry, penguin - confused, owl - wise, etc.
Step 7
Draw in the details of the composition. To the fore, i.e. drawing the largest size, display the main object, even inanimate. Complement the overall look with objects that are associated with these images and help to recognize the area.
Step 8
Run your drawings in one of the many quick-shot programs and your cartoon is ready.
