I bought a bunch of flipbooks today. Well, not really flipbooks, but the ones I have will do just fine.
I am trying to make a flipbook animation, but it is really hard. My worms change from page to page. Then he is skinnier, taller or shorter. It's never right.
I read about practicing making the the same character over and over and draw him in each position. But I don't think I can do that. If I try to draw a main worm it's never the same. Even if I decide to draw a main worm, it'll be different the next time.
Such difficulty indeed. :0

Edited by FadedPanda: 5/13/2014 4:37:36 AMTry to find one you like, and keep copying it until you understand every little lines angle and shape. this usually takes about 5 tries with me to get a general understanding. This is most effectively done when thoroughly studying every stroke you make [try to make mental notes of how far things are or the angle of the shape compared to another point of interest.] You can copy something a million times, but if you dont play attention you still won't know anything.

I do think about objects as much as possible when I draw them. Like what does this line do? Or what is it from? How long or wide does it need to be? Stuff like that. And I draw worms a lot. But they're kinda different each time I draw them. They're never 100% the same.
