Berlin Goes Manga: Urban Drawing Rally.
Drawing the city through manga glasses requires training:
From faces to whole figures and poses, from fast drawn sketch to an improved lineart of essential traits.
To draw a figure, grasp the pose and keep reducing the lineart until you
got a silhouette of volumes.
Switching from pose scribbling to a reduced lineart trains you to
visualize faster, and more precisely so.
Diversify linearts: create rich character designs, simplify and
improve them, and always connect your visuals to your lived experience!(e.g.: U1 beauty smiling at me, just
before meeting his girlfriend.)
Character designs put the story in motion.Soon to come:
