Could you do Regular Show tutorials? I need to know how to perfect Jeremy and Chad's design, as well as my OCs.

I definitely need to work at this. It's amazing how something so simple makes everything more dynamic. I'm glad I found these tips.

I kinda felt dynamic angles would apply to more than just characters, but thanks for making a point of making this!

I've seen the top Mr. Krabs one in an episode. The one that sponge bob thinks that Mr. Krabs is a robot... But i assume they did that for a fist person perspective.

ALSO! I am trying my best at a comic. ^^

Awesome! I suck pretty much at drawing backgrounds, even though I give my best to add some details to them. What I realized is that I have to improve at drawing perspectives in different angles.

What I really like about this sheet are the cute sketchy versions of Mr. Krabs and Spongebob. It's so unusual to see Spongebob with button eyes.

MysticArk [2009-12-08 03:13:05 +0000 UTC]

If I can print these out, maybe I can do well on them. However,I will use my ORIGINAL characters, since I don't like Spongebob.

Artgirl121 [2009-12-08 02:41:47 +0000 UTC]

I have a question about backgrounds. The first one, the one with Mr.Krabs facing foward and the backgrounds all flat and boring. Well what if you wanna get an angle facing Mr.Krabs foward? How can you make the BG pop out and not all stiff?

I downloaded these from your blog, they're amazing and very useful! It's good to see them here too though.
Also, just like to say, I love seeing industry professionals on DA, feels like some sort of barrier is removed.
