Art TechniquesLETâS FACE IT
Cartoon faces are the most important element of character design, as the features that make up that face convey your characterâs personality! For example, heavy-lidded eyes; a weak chin; goofy, protruding ears; and a wide, toothy smile are all telling signs of a characterâs mood and manner. Practice drawing variations of each featureâdraw tall eyes and small eyes, round ears and pointy ears, thin lips and fat lips, bulbous noses and broken noses. And donât forget to accessorize!
EYE VARIATIONS
ALL EYES HERE Cartoon eyes can take many different shapesâthey can be tall, small, wide, skinny, open, closed, asymmetrical, bugged-out, or even just a couple of dots! Highlights can be drawn with squares or rectangles, or not at all. And donât forget about the eyebrowsâfrom bushy and thin to straight and curved, the shape and size of eyebrows tell a lot about your characterâs attitude!
