It's so contrasting to see the difference between an animators characters and a writers charters. Her on Da when I see people draw their O.C's, they all end up looking the same to me and the problem has to do with the fact that they start off with perfect looking bodies, then draw on the interchangeable features. But in this case you, being more reasonably knowledgeable, start off with shapes and thus, make more interesting and distinguishable designs. Excellent job on your part and I love seeing how different they all look, I can get a sense of their personalities.
I just wish story writers here on Da would understand and learn the important fundamental's of basic Character Design taught in animation, it opened up my world!

I love how you're able to construct such a wide variety of body types based on a few simple shapes. It looks like a lot of fun; I'd love to try it some time.

Wow, these are really inspiring - I'm taking a character design class right now and I keep trying to simplify my shapes, but they end up looking all blobby and unstructured. Your drawings have such simple foundation shapes but you get such variety out of them. (I love the second one). Thanks for linking the video! I'm going to keep working to get my drawings this streamlined....

The second one reminds me of the witch from the movie Brave.

The fourth girl reminds me of Velma, but I'm digging the look. Nice job as always.
Second one's got some kind of mean/evil look about them, though. Strangely cool.

Love the variation! Interesting designs, they draw the eye in far more than the previous set of female characters. I'm actually curious about the backstory behind some of these

These are amazing. I just love that magic woman! And the 'hippie' lady on the far left has so much character.

These are so much more interesting and unique than your first female lineup- I especially love the tall one!

Drawing the shapes are easy but fleshing them out is a bit hard on my own. I need more practice.
The videos are great tutorials. I like the silent videos because sometimes a sound may be distracting to some audiences.
I really appreciate you putting in your time to show us how you draw your characters. I am learning a lot from you. I am always looking to see more from you.

Hey! I follow your videos, they're very good. I love how you drew the old ladie. I've alwaysfound difficult to draw elderly people.
May I ask you an advise? How do you draw young kids, like babies or 6-7 years old? It's just I've seen your kids illustrations and their so cute that I need to now how you make them. haha

Neat, much less uniform-ish this time. I really love the first two.
Now redesign Hulk Girl, (or something)! I'd love to see a more beefed up girl character from you.

I am just loving these! Thanks for sharing this with us, it's definitely inspiring me to do more human sketching

I was all like, oh, 2 is my favorite... but then I started waffling, because 4 is also awesome... but then 5 was awesome too, so then I decided that I'd just say I like the picture a lot.
