In this course you will learn how to draw comic style art from the basic sketch to the final rendering. You will gain a better understanding on how to create illustrations with depth and dimension. By using line, shape, and forms we can construct anything. I will teach you how to simplify the things around you and then draw them with your own creative filter.
For this course you will need a pencil and paper or a drawing tablet. I will be using Traditional Comic Art tools such as 2h and HB lead. Bristol board smooth and various erasers. You will learn more about these tools as I am using them to create the work. You can still create and follow along with a regular pencil and paper.
This course is broken up into 5 main sections.
Section 1 – Understanding Line – Shape – Form
Section 2 – Drawing Comic Book Style Faces
Section 3 – Shading and Rendering
Section 4 – Drawing Poses for Comic Book Characters + Designing a Character
Section 5 – Drawing a Zombie – Textures and Imperfections
Section 6 – Drawing Wrinkles and Folds for Clothing
Section 7 – Q+A Section – Here I add new Video Content to answer Your Questions
You will work through a variety of practice activities that you can share in the Q+A Section of this course. Make sure to be specific with any questions or trouble areas you may have. I will do my best to offer any insight that I can.
