Description
I thought it would be nice to share one of the ways I sketch out character ideas.I first sketch the simple head and body shapes, then I sketch lines for legs and arms to create a pose template. I then use the sketches to create a final character design
It's a fun way for me to just create random characters!
I hope you like it!

awesome! i've always wondered what goes through the heads of people with cartoony styles. I can't draw what i can't see and even then its not exactly accurate but this has expanded my mind! thanks a lot

when you do all those shapes do you have any idea of what you will do ?
I'm trying to do the same but without previous idea it's a bit difficult ^^"

This is a pretty cool way of doing bodies, this idea has helped me with some of my new pieces. Thank you for sharing.

Steps 1 to 3, fairly easy. Step 4, not so much
But yes, fun indeed.

Inspiring and educational
I've started 'shape practice', which you recommend as a warm-up.
Works surprisingly well ^__^
This reminded me of that

That's pretty interesting to look at. You could almost see what they are already going to be looking at the top.

I like this process myself. It's a great way to experiement with different head and body shapes. I think I like the chieftan character on the far right and the businessman in the center; their square body shape stands out more for me than the other characters. The tatooed fisherman third from the left is pretty cool too.
