106 – CDQ ARTICLE ‘THE LANGUAGE OF SHAPES, WITH TOM HÄNNI’

An Art-Ickle in Issue 9 of the Character Design Quarterly Magazine, entitled ‘The Language of Shapes, with Tom Hänni‘ was the topic for this weeks episode; It really got me thinking about the Power of Shapes and Lines when Designing and Creating Characters.

This one covers stuff like:

  • Drawing Exercises to Loosen Up,
  • The Power of Writing,
  • Keeping it Simple … Stupid,
  • Lines of Action,
  • Detailing vs Simplifying,
  • Big Bastard Basic Shapes,
  • Silhouettes,
  • Sketching,
  • and Tom Hänni’s Characters.

I also eat an Easter Egg lol, hope you like this one :)
