I've been creating cute little characters for as long as I can remember - and I absolutely love it. Over many years of trial and error, I've uncovered a few handy secrets that make it easier to draw cute cartoons. Now, I use those secrets to help over 9000 students discover their love of drawing 'kawaii' cute characters of their own!

Description
Dozens of students asked what equipment I use when creating my characters, which is a great question, so I thought it was about time I answered. In this video I talk about my setup, but that doesn't mean you will need the same system or devices. The easiest and cheapest way to start is pencil and paper. This is the bare requirement. If you are wanting to explore the digital world of art creation, I recommend either an iPad with a stylus (because many people already own an iPad) or picking up an Intuos tablet to plug into your computer. This course was 90% created using Sketchbook Pro (ie. The screen you see in bulk of the lessons is Sketchbook Pro), which uses layers and has the ability to change brushes, etc. This is what I would recommend using when starting out. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.

Hi there, I'm Ben. I've been creating cute little characters for as long as I can remember - and I absolutely love it. Over many years of trial and error, I've uncovered a few handy secrets that make it easier to draw cute cartoons. Now, I use those secrets to help over 9000 students discover their love of drawing 'kawaii' cute characters of their own!
LET ME ASK YOU THIS..
Have you always wanted to draw cute/kawaii styled cartoons?
Are you a coder or game designer wanting to create your own characters?
Would you like to learn simple techniques cartoonists use everyday?
Are you a graphic artist wanting to get back to basics?
Are you a traditional artist wanting to expand your knowledge?
Are you simply wanting to impress your family and friends with a new skill (it's OK to say yes to this one!)?
Most students answer YES to at least one of these questions. For a lot of people, drawing is seen as a life skill they wish they had - and now YOU CAN HAVE IT.
YOU CAN GROW ARTISTIC ABILITY!
Whether you believe it or not, everyone has basic artistic ability - I've seen it in every student I've taught. All that separates you from the most popular and skilful artists are these three simple things:
Practice
Someone to help start you off on the right track
Passion for learning
My goal is to show you exactly what it takes to draw your own cartoons. You'll be amazed by how quickly you'll learn.
LEARN A LIFE LONG SKILL
Few things in life are as special as giving a friend or family member a hand drawn card. It's a skill you'll use for your entire life. I have given drawings to my closest friends, parents, sisters, my wife and now I'm happily sharing art with my two young daughters (drawing on their school drink bottles is always fun). It's so nice to be able to give something so personal to someone you love.
Let me show you how to draw cute kawaii eyes, ears, hair, limbs, torsos - and the simple steps to breathing life into a new character.
