Character Styling 1 - The Cat

CHARACTER STYLING 1-THE CAT


This series of books has an ambitious objective: to develop new characters, free to be used and at the same time to teach how to create them. It is directed both to professional people and to amateurs, students.


Publishing for a young target seems to be made more by traditional artists than designers attentive of up-to-date trends.

It is as if the computer, Internet, Flash animation or other modern techniques did not exist.

Many books that teach how to draw characters, animals or people seem to represent the past.

I would like to remedy this with more modern characters by using a synthetic style.


Each title develops one theme at a time which in this first volume is the Cat, with different ways of portraying it.

It shows how to construct the basic form, the psycological and colouring characteristics.

Each character has a special name and logo and a vast series of MODEL SHEETS that show how it can

move and become animated in various positions. I have added labels, prints, textures, all ready to be used.
