How to Draw Illustrator Role Design: Whole Body
The design of the whole body will be centered on the clothes of the characters, and the front and back sides need to be drawn at the same time. The theme this time is "Japanese hot pot"!
Once you start sketching the outline, you may unconsciously indulge in it. As long as you know how to apply the outline of the character, you can advance all the steps smoothly.
Although outline is an important part in character design, I pay more attention to modeling and clothing than outline. Although paying attention to style and clothing may make the design look less three-dimensional, for me, beautiful appearance is much more important! )
The constant inspiration gave me the following three main shapes.
Hairstyles give people the impression of rice noodles (flat rice noodles)
The weapon's impression is chopsticks.
The coat and collar give people a sense of rice bowl.
It is also part of the design process to draw a manuscript while thinking about the approximate color matching. In my mind, I will help color clothes while composing a composition.
If the color is too dull, I will add decorations such as bags, gadgets, weapons and toys and think about how to arrange the color of each item.
In addition, I have to consider the material of clothes to determine the type of wrinkles. Basically, if there are few wrinkles, it means that the material of the clothes is relatively thick.
If you want to draw details in the future, it is better to decide the material or material (leather, cotton cloth, etc.). ) first of all.
In this design, in order not to let the audience think that the girl is wearing ordinary close-fitting clothes and a white sweatshirt, I will also think about what the coat looks like. The girl's coat is designed into a large size with rich details, and there is a simple dress that fits closely inside, so she can show her figure without a coat. This will make a contrast and look more handsome.
In this role design, the contrast features are as follows.
Meticulous/simple
A large size/fit
So the design of the close-fitting clothes is completed, and then let's design the coat! Let's make a draft of the jacket patterns in other places first. The pattern is drawn with common materials such as green onions, carrots, mushrooms and beef slices.
Maybe someone here has noticed that I designed the puppet on the hairpin with lettuce and shrimp. There is a reason why I choose green and red objects, because these colors account for most of the color of hot pot ingredients, and they will have a good effect on the screen when used.
Mixed color is a method of color selection.
Give another example!
If the coat is made of light green cactus, isn't it good to use flowering cactus as a hair ring? Usually the color of flowers is white, purple or yellow.
In addition, you can draw three huge cactus thorns and paint them white, purple and yellow respectively.
Although the cactus area is mostly green, what is the reason why I don't choose green? In fact, even if you choose green, there is no harm.
But if you add conspicuous red to a wide range of light green, you can create "contrast" in the picture.
This is another skill of color matching.
The background color of the character is shown in the figure below. If you have knowledge of color theory, it will be of great help to color matching. I chose yellow and blue for the same reason as red and green, both to match warm and cool colors.
Front and back:
The color scheme of the coat is as follows. I refer to the label on the package of instant noodles in cups to help the coat configure the color. Even if this design is printed directly on the cup container or label, there is no problem at all.
Plus chopsticks and light and shadow as girls' weapons, that's it!
