Children's Character Creation: Techniques and Styles

“!! Congratulations!! You have now reached the end of the course. I hope you enjoyed the process and learned from my tips and lessons. Thank you very much for joining me on this adventure. Before finishing, I would like to remind you of the steps you must follow to complete your final project: Choose and analyze the character Choose your favorite character from a classic literary work and analyze this character through other representations of the same by different artists in terms of concept, personality, color, form and action. I have chosen Little Red Riding Hood, but you can choose any character you can think of. There are no limits!

Make 3 versions Pour your personality into this chosen character and redesign 3 versions. Think about its structure, proportion, shape, clothing and line of action. Color the chosen option Choose one of the 3 versions and give it the basic coloring along with textures and details. Add the background, lights and shadows Recreate an environment for the character using lights, shadows and a simple background for its context. When you have everything, share photos of the entire process, step by step, and the final result on the forum by clicking the "Create your project" button. I will stop by the forum from time to time to see your progress, although I ask for your patience, since I also have to attend to my professional assignments. See you soon! ”
