Quick drawings

With the grid you can draw nice heads quickly...


1) To begin you make such simple heads with only circles :

Use the grid (--> 5) to draw and to place easily your circles :

2) Move the different points to make some simple heads first :

3) You easily can change the colors :

4) With the option "draw --> split curves (--> 2)" you can move the new points to make more complex heads :

If someone wants the basic moho file I can send it on my server...

Hope you enjoy it...

Nice way to make a crowd in a hurry and they all have the same basic look. Thanks for the tip.

Very cool.

How did you achive symmetry on all your characters? Did you have to update each side seperately?

Yes... each side seperately... :?

But with the use of the grid it was ok !

This file is IN anime Studio pro but they didn't add the txt file to explain how to use as I told it here...

You can use Fazek's Magnet tool for symmetrical distortion.

Actually, if the left and right side are slightly different (hardly noticable to the untrained eye), it just looks better and less "technical" and "designed". Just my thought on the subject.

Nice workflow, p6r!

Yes, I tested. It works very well. But you should plan the distortion steps carefully and study the tool's capacity. In other words, you should know what you are doing when you click the button. Otherwise, you can easily spoil your model...
