• Basic Techniques • Cartoons & Strips • Exercises
By Noel Ford, Steve Chadburn, and Pete Dredge. Whether through traditional techniques or modern digital equipment, creating professional-looking cartoons has never been easier—or more fun! Progressive instruction explains everything from the basics of drawing human and animal figures to innovative uses of shading and light, employing exaggeration and caricature, and portraying humor and emotion.
More advanced techniques are added as skills increase, such as using texture to trick the eye, making a powerful statement with the white space, and designing backgrounds that will counterbalance characters.
