This tutorial introduces how to draw cartoons. The style of cartoon painting generally emphasizes concise images, careful use of colors, and exaggerated character movements. It takes a lot of practice when drawing. It may not be difficult to simply imitate, but it is a bit more difficult to really form your own style!
At the end of the tutorial, PSD source files are provided for learning.
Final effect:
1. First use the pen tool to position the panda’s movements to lay a solid foundation for the subsequent drawing work.
2. Use the pen tool to draw a line starting from the panda’s head along the outline baseline.
3. Continue to draw, and the outline is basically completed.
4. Remove the outline baseline and use the pen tool to draw the panda’s facial features.
5. Outline the details of the feet, including the wrinkles of the shoes. The outline of the mountain top is drawn in a few strokes.
6. Create a new layer folder, and put all color layers in the folder to manage them. First, give the panda its iconic black color.
7. Use a round brush to adjust to a suitable size and outline the panda’s eyes. Use a gray brush to draw out the outline of the fingers.
