How to Draw Comic Style Artwork - From Sketch to Rendering

About How to Draw Comic Style Artwork - From Sketch to Rendering

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._
