    Designing Your Character
    The first step of creating an original character involves brainstorming a unique concept.

Question.01
Is there a specific reason why you chose this topic?


I've been designing & creating characters for quite a while, so I thought it'd be a good idea to share the knowledge I've gathered over the years. I love drawing character illustrations because it's the heart and soul of my illustrations. Without well-designed characters, anime, comics, and manga will be very boring. Focusing on character design, you can learn a range of skills that involve anatomy, color theory, proportions, and more.
Question.02
What makes your class different from other classes?


I don't consider myself a professional artist yet, because I'm always learning and training myself. I'm still one of the smaller artists on this platform so I'm striving for improvement. I hope people taking my class regard me as a fellow student helping another student. Through this class, you'll understand how I create unique characters and the thought process behind my designs.
Question.03
What would be the most important takeaway from your class?


It would be to have fun when learning to create characters! Get in the habit of designing a character before you start drawing, and improve specific drawing skills. I'd also like to mention the importance of creating a character and its facial expressions. Learn how to create compelling characters that display unique personalities by learning anatomy, proportion, composition, and expressions.
