FORMS, VOLUME and STRUCTURE CRAP….and ARKANIUM
Back again with another reprise turorial featuring the meat and potatoes of drawing and cartooning that tends to get overlooked. ths of course is a “cliffs notes” version of the process if you will, but i think still drives the point home that you have to KNOW WHAT YOU ARE DOING, this stuff’s second nature to the pros on here, but i figure i’d get it out the way regardless right HERE
Also, as requested here’s another reprise regarding to the many steps i go through laying out pages and the many steps involved explained HERE
The rest is some stuff i rarely showed about regarding the old development of the arkanium character designs listed HERE















A South Bronx, NYC native animator, illustrator, comic book artist, writer and character designer. Currently working for JM Animation in Seoul, Korea.
Okay, I forgot all about these. Thanks for the reminder. Also check your e-mail! Hit me back when you’re not busy.
Great stuff here Lesean!
Your talents know no bounds homie
Too damn cool as usual! Some one’s gotta stop you! I just don’t know who yet!
See you next Tuesday, amigo!
Heh heh, I remember these, really helped with my development. Blowing up thumbs and developing them is great. Keeps the energy and looseness. Glen Keane also does a similar thing. Keep drawing and keep teaching boss
Les! Ahh yeah great stuff man–and thanks for the kind words too on my Ninja Scroll stuff –coming from you man makes me feel like a million bucks !!! Have you seen Afro Samaurai yet? I haven’tbut some of the character designs have your vibe too it–not sure if you pitched n in the Character desing stuff for that or not. And I’m really looking foward to the Drink and Draw stuff too! Can’t wait!!!!
Hey Les! Love your artwork. You inspire me to keep it moving! Reach for your dreams!
Thanks!!
