03 [What Are the Best 2D Rigging Animation Tools?](#Part 3)
Part 1 All You Need to Know About Rigging
For this first part, we’re going to talk about Rigging in a general way. Think of it as an introduction to the subject. One that should, hopefully, set you off on the right foot. It should also help clarify things that you might need to know as we delve into deeper and more advanced subjects in the next sections of this article.
01What is the Meaning of Rigging in Animation?
Alright, so what does rigging 2D characters actually do? What meaning, or effect, does it have? These questions can be quickly answered with this: Rigging (whether it’s or 3D) is the practice of attaching ‘bones’ to a character model. Bones that, in the future, you can use to create motion.
If you’re an artist, then you’re probably familiar with the concept of creating an initial sketch that you put the final drawing on top of — done with the sole purpose of creating a structure that will allow you to move forward more easily in your art.
That’s exactly what you do when Rigging. You’re building a structure that will allow you to easily create animated characters that you can move at will in the future.
02Why Use Animation?
Alright, so what’s the difference between creating a Face Rig and a Face Rig? Is there any? To answer this, the simple answer is, yes. There is quite the difference.
A lot of animators prefer to practice Animation over Animation because it is more traditional and requires less complicated software (not that it doesn’t come with complications of its own.) Specifically, animation requires quite a lengthy character creation and rigging process.
You should consider the subject more based on what project you’re working on. Things that you might want to keep in mind include your project timeline, project budget, character rig usability in the future, length of the project, and so on.
(There’s also a more in-depth breakdown of this in of this guide.)
03What is Animation Rigging Software?
Now, for the last section of this Rigging overview, let’s talk about Rigging Animation Software. You should be able to guess what it’s meant for, but how you can use it is a little different, especially with the many different varieties of Rigging Animation Software available.
We’ll be introducing some in the third part of this guide — so you can learn more about the differences there. For now, all you need to know is that it usually comes with advanced rigging and character deformer tools that you can use to easily (and efficiently) animate your characters.
Part 2 What is the Difference and Connection Between and 3D
As promised, this next section will be devoted to clarifying the differences and similarities between Animation and Animation. As we mentioned previously, most animators prefer Animation. But, more often than not, they switch between both forms in order to create something suitable for their current project.
01How and Animations Are Created
First, let’s talk about the process involved. In the end, this can be described simply as: it starts off the same, but then becomes significantly more and more dissimilar the further you go along. More specifically, whether you’re working on a or Animation, you usually start with working through your vision for the project.
That means exploring ideas and creating hand-illustrated storyboards (which will serve as the foundation for the project as a whole). Then, the next steps involve media gathering (i.e., character creation, sound clips, voice-overs, sound effects, etc.) So that everything would be ready for the project.
This is when the difference starts. Animation involves hand-drawing characters in different poses and angles (with the standard being frames for a second) and can be completed with basic rigging (i.e., face rig for moving mouths or eyes). It’s normal in Animation as well for characters to remain static for several frames. While, with 3D, it is the exact opposite — the characters must be in constant motion so as to remain realistic (which can be done with extensive rigging.)
02Time Investments for Creating and Animations
Next, let’s talk about time investments. This can be a bit tricky to differentiate. Animations, as mentioned, are generally easier to create because it requires less rigging (but more drawings for certain scenes and angles makes it take more time). Meanwhile, Animation usually involves a front-heavy timeline — since you’re looking at intensive character creation and rigging. Once all this is set up though? The rest of the process is much faster than Animation.
You’ll also have to consider the work that you have to put in after your animations have been created. For example, the work you’ll need to put into finalizing your project with a video editor like Wondershare Filmora Video Editor (which would work great with animations especially, as it will allow you to actively add into the timeline as you go.)

Part 3 What Are the Best Rigging Animation Tools?
For this final section of the guide, we’re finally moving on to our introduction to Rigging Animation Software. As mentioned, we’ve picked quite the variety to make sure that you have a good idea of how each will work. (A sample video has also been attached to make sure that you know what kind of projects can be created with these Rigging tools. Take the opportunity to explore those, too. If only for further edification.)
01Reallusion – Cartoon Animator 4
The first of the Rigging Animation Software on this list is Reallusion’s Cartoon Animator 4 (previously known as CrazyTalk Animator). This software was originally developed in order to allow everyone (from beginners to professionals) to create advanced animations with very little effort. To that end, it comes with a lot of motion templates and Auto Rig functions (i.e., audio lip-syncing) that the user can use to seriously cut down on the work required.
02Harmony ToonBoom
Harmony ToonBoom is well-known in the Rigging Animation Software industry. It’s the software that is used by many professionals. According to the Toon Boom Harmony website, this software was even used to create popular television shows like Rick and Morty, Bob’s Burgers, The Simpsons, and Futurama. It’s considerably more difficult to use for beginners, but it comes with many advanced functions that allow its users to create truly complex and beautiful Animations.
03Synfig Studio
The best thing about Synfig Studio (right from the onset), is that it is FREE. There are two versions of this tool — one that is ‘stable’ and the other in ‘development.’ The developmental version offers more advanced functions, of course, but for most beginners, the ‘stable’ version would serve just as well.
04Adobe Animate
Adobe Animate is software that belongs in Adobe’s long line of professional-level products. It’s a part of the classic ‘Adobe Suite.’ As a professional software, however, keep in mind that it might be more difficult to get used to at first (there’s a steep, learning curve right off the bat). But, if used correctly, it can be used to create quite impressive and eye-catching interactive animations (i.e., game content or website elements.)
05Animaker
Animaker is quite popular for beginners. It offers templates, so you can start off with an easy project if that’s what you’d like. But it also offers a lot of custom-creation tools that can be used for creating complex and professional Animations — although perhaps not at the level as the ones you might see from other alternatives (this software is most suitable for simple animations.)
06Moho Pro
Moho Pro (previously known as Anime Studio Pro) is a popular Animation program that fans of anime really love. This is one of the best software to use if you’re more interested in traditional animation (which involves a lot of free-hand drawing). Although, despite that fact, it has many advanced rigging functions as well (so you can create a mix of traditional and modern animation if you wish.)
07Pencil 2D
Pencil 2D, much like Synfig Studio, is FREE, cross-platform software. It’s quite old, but it’s matured over the years to include more and more functions (you might already be personally aware of it, in fact. It had its time to shine in the early 2010s.) The important thing to remember though is the fact that this is definitely more of a ‘traditional animation’ software. It does offer some basic rigging, but it’s best used by those who would prefer to practice the art of frame-by-frame animation.
08OpenToonz
OpenToonz is another free Rigging Animation Software (although it should be noted that there is a premium version, called Toonz, that is quite well known.) The best part about it is that it is a combination of software. One that you can use both for traditional animation and Animation. It’s also pretty easy to use, making it a good option for those just starting out.
● Key Takeaways from This Episode →
● 2D Rigging is the practice of creating ‘structure’ or ‘bones’ from which you can move characters or models. In these are usually ‘pins’ placed in bendable areas (i.e., the elbow, for bending the arm.)
● There are many differences between Animation and Animation. What you end up choosing should be decided by your project.
● Remember though, that Animations usually take longer to create even though Animations require more complex riggings.
● If you’re serious about getting into Rigging, make sure to consider the Rigging Animation Software that you choose to use very carefully. Each one has its own pros and cons.

Animation involves hand-drawing characters in different poses and angles (with the standard being frames for a second) and can be completed with basic rigging (i.e., face rig for moving mouths or eyes). It’s normal in Animation as well for characters to remain static for several frames. While, with 3D, it is the exact opposite — the characters must be in constant motion so as to remain realistic (which can be done with extensive rigging.)
02Time Investments for Creating and Animations
Next, let’s talk about time investments. This can be a bit tricky to differentiate. Animations, as mentioned, are generally easier to create because it requires less rigging (but more drawings for certain scenes and angles makes it take more time). Meanwhile, Animation usually involves a front-heavy timeline — since you’re looking at intensive character creation and rigging. Once all this is set up though? The rest of the process is much faster than Animation.
You’ll also have to consider the work that you have to put in after your animations have been created. For example, the work you’ll need to put into finalizing your project with a video editor like Wondershare Filmora Video Editor (which would work great with animations especially, as it will allow you to actively add into the timeline as you go.)
For Win 7 or later (64-bit)
For macOS 10.12 or later
Part 3 What Are the Best Rigging Animation Tools?
For this final section of the guide, we’re finally moving on to our introduction to Rigging Animation Software. As mentioned, we’ve picked quite the variety to make sure that you have a good idea of how each will work. (A sample video has also been attached to make sure that you know what kind of projects can be created with these Rigging tools. Take the opportunity to explore those, too. If only for further edification.)
01Reallusion – Cartoon Animator 4
The first of the Rigging Animation Software on this list is Reallusion’s Cartoon Animator 4 (previously known as CrazyTalk Animator). This software was originally developed in order to allow everyone (from beginners to professionals) to create advanced animations with very little effort. To that end, it comes with a lot of motion templates and Auto Rig functions (i.e., audio lip-syncing) that the user can use to seriously cut down on the work required.
02Harmony ToonBoom
Harmony ToonBoom is well-known in the Rigging Animation Software industry. It’s the software that is used by many professionals. According to the Toon Boom Harmony website, this software was even used to create popular television shows like Rick and Morty, Bob’s Burgers, The Simpsons, and Futurama. It’s considerably more difficult to use for beginners, but it comes with many advanced functions that allow its users to create truly complex and beautiful Animations.
03Synfig Studio
The best thing about Synfig Studio (right from the onset), is that it is FREE. There are two versions of this tool — one that is ‘stable’ and the other in ‘development.’ The developmental version offers more advanced functions, of course, but for most beginners, the ‘stable’ version would serve just as well.
04Adobe Animate
Adobe Animate is software that belongs in Adobe’s long line of professional-level products. It’s a part of the classic ‘Adobe Suite.’ As a professional software, however, keep in mind that it might be more difficult to get used to at first (there’s a steep, learning curve right off the bat). But, if used correctly, it can be used to create quite impressive and eye-catching interactive animations (i.e., game content or website elements.)
05Animaker
Animaker is quite popular for beginners. It offers templates, so you can start off with an easy project if that’s what you’d like. But it also offers a lot of custom-creation tools that can be used for creating complex and professional Animations — although perhaps not at the level as the ones you might see from other alternatives (this software is most suitable for simple animations.)
06Moho Pro
Moho Pro (previously known as Anime Studio Pro) is a popular Animation program that fans of anime really love. This is one of the best software to use if you’re more interested in traditional animation (which involves a lot of free-hand drawing). Although, despite that fact, it has many advanced rigging functions as well (so you can create a mix of traditional and modern animation if you wish.)
07Pencil 2D
Pencil 2D, much like Synfig Studio, is FREE, cross-platform software. It’s quite old, but it’s matured over the years to include more and more functions (you might already be personally aware of it, in fact. It had its time to shine in the early 2010s.) The important thing to remember though is the fact that this is definitely more of a ‘traditional animation’ software. It does offer some basic rigging, but it’s best used by those who would prefer to practice the art of frame-by-frame animation.
08OpenToonz
OpenToonz is another free Rigging Animation Software (although it should be noted that there is a premium version, called Toonz, that is quite well known.) The best part about it is that it is a combination of software. One that you can use both for traditional animation and Animation. It’s also pretty easy to use, making it a good option for those just starting out.
● Key Takeaways from This Episode →
● 2D Rigging is the practice of creating ‘structure’ or ‘bones’ from which you can move characters or models. In these are usually ‘pins’ placed in bendable areas (i.e., the elbow, for bending the arm.)
● There are many differences between Animation and Animation. What you end up choosing should be decided by your project.
● Remember though, that Animations usually take longer to create even though Animations require more complex riggings.
● If you’re serious about getting into Rigging, make sure to consider the Rigging Animation Software that you choose to use very carefully. Each one has its own pros and cons.

Part 1: How to Combine/Merge Animated GIFs Into One
Method 1: Merge GIFs into one with Photoshop
Adobe Photoshop is one of the top-rated photo editing software tools and nowadays it is popularly being used for GIF combining. Using Photoshop, you can easily play multiple GIF images side by side on the screen. Here are a few simple to follow steps to accomplish this task:
Step 1: Import GIFs to combine
First of all, users need to launch Adobe Photoshop on their device and then import both GIF images to individual tabs. This task can be easily done using Drag and Drop tools. Resize both tabs so that you can view both images at a time on screen.
Step 2: Save GIF with name
Go to the Window menu and ensure that the Timeline option is marked in the drop-down menu.
Now open one empty file with height same as that of already imported GIF files. Save this file with any suitable name, for example Z.
Note: If you need a transparent view of your imported GIF images then go to Layer and select New and finally hit Layer option. You can now hide its bottom layer.
Step 3: Copy frames
Now move to the tab of the first GIF file and then to the timeline toolbar. On the top right corner of your screen, you will find the menu icon. Here you need to select and copy all frames.
Step 4: Paste your copy
It is time to move to GIF Z file, move to its timeline toolbar, and then select the menu icon from the top right corner of your screen. Paste your recently copied selection over here. Never forget to choose Paste Over selection option from Pop up Dialogue Box.
Step 5: Copy and paste
Simply repeat the process explained in Step 3 and 4 for the 2nd GIF image. After execution of these steps, your GIF Z file will be containing all layers of your imported GIF files but as you have pasted them one over another so it is important to separate their elements now.
Step 6: To make separation
To do this separation, go to GIF Z tab and then select layers of second GIF file and simply move them below the first GIF layer files. Users can now have a preview of both GIFs in the timeline window.
Step 7: Change image settings
After finalizing the best preview for your edited files, you can hit the file menu option and then save your project for device or web option. It will immediately open a dialogue box where users can easily specify their image quality and loop count details. Never forget to have one more preview before saving the final results.
Step 8: Save your project
As now you are done with all the editing tasks so it is time to hit the “Save” option and then provide your destination address to the modified file. Your animated GIF file is now ready to get uploaded on the internet.

Drawings will always have a special place in storytelling. Whether you are demonstrating a new concept to a child, highlighting the features of a product to your bosses, or showcasing the intricacies of a marketing campaign, drawings make it easier for the audience to understand what is being said.
That is why it is so important to learn how to create whiteboard animation. When you learn how to create a whiteboard video with animate pictures app , you are in a unique position when it comes to selling your story, and convincing others of what you already know.
- Part1: What is Whiteboard Animation Video?
- Part2: How to Create Whiteboard Animation Videos?
- Part3: Useful Tips for Creating Whiteboard Animation
Part 1：What is Whiteboard Animation Video?
To understand the whiteboard animation video, we must go back to the beginning. Think about how professors illustrate different topics and equations using a whiteboard. They will write down the important words or formulas and then expand on that information through their lecture.
Whiteboard animation is taking those words, phrases and images to another level. Whiteboard animation is a series of events or videos that are created using 2D animation software . These videos can be showcased in any type of setting. You can upload them onto a social media site, show them as part of a presentation, or add them to a crowdfunding or product funding page.
When someone watches a whiteboard animation video, they see the series of images and graphics in sequential order, and there is usually a narration accompanying those images. These videos can be short, anywhere from 30 to 90 seconds. The idea is to deliver information in a clear, coherent and concise way.
To create whiteboard animation, the goal is to take complex concepts and information, and make it easy to understand. Now we can go into some detail about how to create a whiteboard video.
Part 2：How to Create Whiteboard Animation Videos?
Step 1: Write a Script
Much like a normal video or a short skit, there must be a script if a whiteboard animation video is to succeed. Having interesting images and information is great, but they are nothing without a coherent story.
It is not a blog post, storyboard or a set of bullet points. What you need is a proper script, which says everything in regards to the video. Why? Because then you will know precisely what images should be added in certain sections, what the narrator must say, and what transitions are necessary.
Step 2: Start with the Storyboard
Now you have a script. You have a clear idea of how you want your video to come across. It is time to start creating the storyboard. With a storyboard, you will be able to organize your thoughts much better. You can see how each frame comes onto the screen, and how one shot ties into the other.
When you create your storyboard, you will have a good idea about how your final product will look. If there are some transitions you are not happy with, this is the moment where you can make changes.
Step 3: Create Images
If you are a creative person, you will find this part very easy. It is all about creating fun and unique images that will help convey the information that you want to get across. Try to create memorable images that will excite your audience. The simpler, more distinctive and interesting you can make those images, the better your end result.
Step 4: Animate Those Images
Now you have your images, and it is time to find some coherence between those images and your script. You will have to time the animation for your images as you do not want things lingering on the screen for too long, or being seen for a brief second. It may be a good idea for you to speak out the narration as you are animating the images and timing their animation. It will help you with the timing.
Step 5: Record and Sync the Audio
The final step involves getting your audio. Every animated video must have narration as it helps to explain what is happening in the images that people are seeing. Record your audio, and ensure it is perfectly in sync with your content.
Part 3：Useful Tips for Creating Whiteboard Animation
Evoke Empathy
The goal of a whiteboard animation video is not just to explain information in a cold and impersonal way. You are hoping to make a connection with your audience. You want them to care about what you are showcasing. By evoking empathy, you will create the connection that you desire.
By adding emotional references, such as funny, lighthearted, cute or emotional moments, you will find your videos are getting a much better reception from the audience. People can relate to content better when it makes them feel things - especially if those feelings are positive.
Personalize the Images
Showing interesting images is a good start. But if you can personalize these images with graphics and color, your storyboard will look even better. Remember that your goal is to get people to stand up and take notice of the content that you are creating.
Conclusion
Now that we have gone over the entire process of creating a whiteboard animation video, we hope that you are ready to get started on your project. And if you are wondering how you will edit your video, we recommend Filmora . You can use it to make animation video by adding keyframes, so the animation will be smooth and natural. You just need to build a white plane to easily start making animation. Besides, color correction and audio mixer will raise up your explainer video to a new level. Download it to have a try (Free)!

In-Depth Study of Cartoon Painting Starts From Learning to Draw It
In-depth Study of Cartoon Painting Starts from Learning to Draw It
An easy yet powerful editor
Numerous effects to choose from
Detailed tutorials provided by the official channel
Cartoon painting is slowly becoming popular due to its many benefits, especially easy cartoon canvas painting. For instance, it is pretty eye-grabbing, especially if your audience is children.
Thanks to the animation aspect, it has become relatively cheap to do advertisements with cartoons instead of real people.
In this article
01 [What Are Good Cartoons to Draw?](#Part 1)
02 [How Do You Draw a Cartoon Character for Beginners?](#Part 2)
03 [Is There Anything else You Can Do to Draw Cartoons More Quickly?](#Part 3)
Part 1 What Are Good Cartoons to Draw?
As far as good cartoons are concerned, expect about 5 popular types. These cartoons to draw include:
01 Illustrative Cartoons
They are the most suitable cartoons to draw when portraying particular ideas directly and simply.
The cartoons are primarily used in advertisements, teaching aids, and explaining stories. They also have text that explains them further.
It explains why they are common in school books, making them perfect for explaining content or subject.
02 Animated Cartoons
It is important to note that these cartoons are drawn using computers despite looking as if they are hand-drawn. One thing that makes them stand out is that they seem to be in action and movement.
As much as that’s how they seem from the viewer’s perspective, that’s far from the truth. They are just drawn in series, and since the first one will differ from the second one, there is that illusion of movement created.
03 Comic Strips or Panels
In most cases, these are regular features characterized by established or known characters and usually displayed in newspapers.
Just like the animated cartoons, they are showcased in series to tell or illustrate a story. The series of panels have words said by the various characters.
The words are usually in balloons, and a single comic strip may cover a single or double page of a newspaper.
04 Gag Cartoons
As the name gag suggests, these cartoons revolve around jokes. These single-paneled cartoons often make fun of human beings.
Through overstatements, humor resonates from what is drawn. They can either serve as entertainment or point out, if not make fun of, people, especially their mistakes and faults. Besides the cartoon, expect a caption that’s often a single sentence.
05 Editorial or Political Cartoons
These cartoons are also made for the newspapers. Expect them to be a single drawing on an editorial page. It sheds more light on a particular newspaper’s editorial comment.
As much as some have captions, that’s not always the case. Just like the gag cartoons, they ridicule people, but the editorial ones focus on celebrities.
Part 2 How Do You Draw a Cartoon Character for Beginners?
Even cartoon painting experts were once beginners. So, feel encouraged because you stand a chance also to become an expert in the long run. All you need to do is take the first step. Fortunately, we are here to hold your hand as you do so. So. Without further ado, let’s get started.
01 Cartoon Painting of a Young Character
These are the steps you need to follow when doing so:
Step 1Start with the face
The face is significant, especially when it comes to cartoon painting. It has complex as well as simple parts. For example, the face itself is pretty basic since you will need to begin with a circle.
After that, draw a horizontal and vertical line and ensure that they intersect in the middle.
Step 2Draw the eyes by drawing
Draw the eyes by drawing an oval and ensuring that the top side is slightly tilting to the side.
Do the same thing on the other side since the norm is a pair of eyes. The gap between the two should also be sensible.
Step 3Draw eyebrows
On the upper side of the eye, ensure that the lines are slightly thick. The eyebrows also need to be placed above the eyes, slightly above the thick line representing the eyelashes.
Step 4Draw jaw
After that, start shaping the jaw. Keep in mind that it plays a huge role in determining whether the character will look thin or fat. Additionally, how you draw the jaw determines whether the character will be old or young and how old or young the person will look.
Step 5Draw nose
Design the nose and ensure that you don’t put many details. The good thing about the nose is that a tip is enough to serve the purpose. Another common approach when drawing the nose is doing so as if you are viewing it from the side.
Step 6Draw mouth
Next, draw the mouth and consider the age of your character as you do so. If it is a child, despite the gender, stick to simplicity. You should also avoid drawing the lips. Preferably, go for the good, expressive trace since it never disappoints.
Step 7Draw ears
Proceed to the ears and in relation to whether the character is facing the camera or not. If your character is looking at the camera, you should see the front side view. Therefore, it won’t make sense to display the internal cavities in this case.
Step 8Draw haircut
Proceed to the ears and in relation to whether the character is facing the camera or not. If your character is looking at the camera, you should see the front side view. Therefore, it won’t make sense to display the internal cavities in this case.
As scary as it may look, you need not be an expert to make the haircut look perfect. Additionally, there is no constant way of drawing the haircut, and you are at liberty to practice as much creativity as possible.
Nevertheless, please don’t take it lightly since it can be quite descriptive. For instance, the hair is used to tell the personality of a character. Practice makes perfect, and you better keep doing it until you get it right. Ensure that what you draw shows the age and character of the cartoons to draw as perfectly as possible.
So far, our focus has been on a young character. However, that’s not always the case explaining why we will look at a cartoon painting of an old character.
02 Cartoon Paintings of an Old Character
If you want your character to look old, this is the way to go:
Step 1Old character draw a face
The face is no different from that of a young character. Start with the eyes and add their pupils, eyebrows and don’t forget to add wrinkles.
Since the character is old compared to the previous one, ensure that the eyebrows are thick. They should occupy more space of the forehead.
Step 2Old character make the chin
Make the chin longer too.
Step 3Old character draw the nose
Ensure that the nose design looks wider and larger since the character is old. To achieve that, make the nose look close to the eyes
Step 4Old character exaggerates mustache
Skip the mouth bit and instead go for a big, exaggerated mustache. That’s one common characteristic of an old character, especially male.
Step 5Draw hair
When it comes to hair, bald and side hair will play the trick perfectly. The nose is no different from that of a young character.
03 Cartoon Painting of a Female Character
So far, our focus has been on a male character. So, what do you do if you want to create a female one instead? These are some of the steps to follow as you do so.
The procedure is not that different. However, consider that women’s facial structures are more delicate than those of their male counterparts. Some of the things that stand out include long hair, a small nose, a thin chin, thin eyebrows, and large, expressive eyelashes. Large pupils will also do, especially if you are good at drawing.

Part 1 What Are Good Cartoons to Draw?
As far as good cartoons are concerned, expect about 5 popular types. These cartoons to draw include:
01 Illustrative Cartoons
They are the most suitable cartoons to draw when portraying particular ideas directly and simply.
The cartoons are primarily used in advertisements, teaching aids, and explaining stories. They also have text that explains them further.
It explains why they are common in school books, making them perfect for explaining content or subject.
02 Animated Cartoons
It is important to note that these cartoons are drawn using computers despite looking as if they are hand-drawn. One thing that makes them stand out is that they seem to be in action and movement.
As much as that’s how they seem from the viewer’s perspective, that’s far from the truth. They are just drawn in series, and since the first one will differ from the second one, there is that illusion of movement created.
03 Comic Strips or Panels
In most cases, these are regular features characterized by established or known characters and usually displayed in newspapers.
Just like the animated cartoons, they are showcased in series to tell or illustrate a story. The series of panels have words said by the various characters.
The words are usually in balloons, and a single comic strip may cover a single or double page of a newspaper.
04 Gag Cartoons
As the name gag suggests, these cartoons revolve around jokes. These single-paneled cartoons often make fun of human beings.
Through overstatements, humor resonates from what is drawn. They can either serve as entertainment or point out, if not make fun of, people, especially their mistakes and faults. Besides the cartoon, expect a caption that’s often a single sentence.
05 Editorial or Political Cartoons
These cartoons are also made for the newspapers. Expect them to be a single drawing on an editorial page. It sheds more light on a particular newspaper’s editorial comment.
As much as some have captions, that’s not always the case. Just like the gag cartoons, they ridicule people, but the editorial ones focus on celebrities.
Part 2 How Do You Draw a Cartoon Character for Beginners?
Even cartoon painting experts were once beginners. So, feel encouraged because you stand a chance also to become an expert in the long run. All you need to do is take the first step. Fortunately, we are here to hold your hand as you do so. So. Without further ado, let’s get started.
01 Cartoon Painting of a Young Character
These are the steps you need to follow when doing so:
Step 1Start with the face
The face is significant, especially when it comes to cartoon painting. It has complex as well as simple parts. For example, the face itself is pretty basic since you will need to begin with a circle.
After that, draw a horizontal and vertical line and ensure that they intersect in the middle.
Step 2Draw the eyes by drawing
Draw the eyes by drawing an oval and ensuring that the top side is slightly tilting to the side.
Do the same thing on the other side since the norm is a pair of eyes. The gap between the two should also be sensible.
Step 3Draw eyebrows
On the upper side of the eye, ensure that the lines are slightly thick. The eyebrows also need to be placed above the eyes, slightly above the thick line representing the eyelashes.
Step 4Draw jaw
After that, start shaping the jaw. Keep in mind that it plays a huge role in determining whether the character will look thin or fat. Additionally, how you draw the jaw determines whether the character will be old or young and how old or young the person will look.
Step 5Draw nose
Design the nose and ensure that you don’t put many details. The good thing about the nose is that a tip is enough to serve the purpose. Another common approach when drawing the nose is doing so as if you are viewing it from the side.
Step 6Draw mouth
Next, draw the mouth and consider the age of your character as you do so. If it is a child, despite the gender, stick to simplicity. You should also avoid drawing the lips. Preferably, go for the good, expressive trace since it never disappoints.
Step 7Draw ears
Proceed to the ears and in relation to whether the character is facing the camera or not. If your character is looking at the camera, you should see the front side view. Therefore, it won’t make sense to display the internal cavities in this case.
Step 8Draw haircut
