Description
Cartooning is a unique form of storytelling that, using both art and text, is imbued with the cartoonist's unique sense of humor and perspective, often conveyed in a few words and brushstrokes or lines. In The Cartoonist's Workbook, Robin Hall demonstrates basic techniques and offers insightful guidelines and shortcuts that will help both novices and experts sharpen their skills. By using Robin's "keyhole method" almost anyone can create great cartoons, even those with no previous experience. Hall begins by showing how to draft Keyhole Ken from all angles and in a variety of posts and costumes. Then he explains how to vary facial expressions, convey special effects with movement lines, and how to turn any character into a finished cartoon.
