Interview with
Illustrators Sungmoo Heo & Rojo
Sungmoo Heo
This will be a good class for beginners who want to draw characters for webtoons, games, and animations, or for intermediate artists who want expand their knowledge of human figure drawing by learning to create colorful and diverse characters with three-dimensional and dynamic poses.
Rojo
I would recommend this class not only to those who share their art on social media platforms such as Instagram or Twitter, but also to those who would like to draw beautiful pictures with good lighting and colors but find it difficult to do so, and those who find it difficult to see the big picture when looking at art. I am confident that you will find the process of illustration much easier and much more interesting after taking this class.
Question.02
What are your strengths and what makes you unique as an instructor?
What are your strengths and what makes you unique as an instructor?
Sungmoo Heo
I’m going to share my secrets and my analytical approach to creating three-dimensional character drawings by considering different angles, poses, and body shapes. In addition, I will talk about the difficulties often encountered as an artist and help students develop the power to actively observe through the process of demonstration and interpretation of references.
Rojo
One of my strengths is that it doesn’t take long for me to finish a piece of art. If you get used to the basic coloring techniques for working on the background (such as shading and borders) and understand the overall composition, you can save a lot of time during the initial stage of producing illustrations. I believe you will gain a lot of helpful tips from me and from my work process. In this class, I’ll give you a lot of resources, brushes, sketch samples and coloring guide PSD files.
