» Rob provides a solid foundation for folks who are interested in creating and developing characters for sequential arts and animation. All the basics are explored here, with copious examples: simple shapes, line of action, appeal, etc.
One thing that sets Rob’s tutorials apart from the rest is how several examples of the process of character design are shown. The videos reiterate several times that the first design isn’t always the best – that one should continue to explore other design possibilities before settling on the final look and feel of a character.
