Reader Tutorial: Cartoon Character in Photoshop

Reader Tutorial: Cartoon Character in Photoshop

November 16, 2009
I have been thinking of doing a cartoon version of one of my favorite characters, Agatha Christies’ Detective Hercule Poirot, always portrayed as a strong willed and serious man. Doing such an intellectual and grumpy looking character in a cartoon fashion sounded like a funny idea to me. So I got my pencil and drew and colored it entirely on Photoshop CS3.

As usual I was surfing the web looking for inspiration when I spotted a really stylish drawing when I was browsing DeviantArt. It was in the top 10 of that day's top digital arts page.

Brilliant Time-Lapse Drawings

I have always loved drawing, a pencil, paper and time. Thats all you need. I find it pleasantly therapeutic, of late I haven't found time to do it as much as I would like. Recently I was looking over some of my older drawings I did, I recorded myself drawing then increased the speed. It has inspired me to dedicate more time to this sort of drawing. I love it and I would love to share it with you guys. Here are some my own drawings as well as some of my favorite drawings by other artists. The first two are mine, the rest are by some other artists I admire.

Since I was very little, one of the things I've always loved was drawing. When you start drawing you imagine things you woudn't normally. Space dragons, tea parties with rabbits, underground adventures and all those things you used to think as a kid.
