My usual steps in drawing cartoons - (YouTube video)

[Bob Hahn]

Don't know how useful this may be, but I tried my hand at making a clip and I posted it on YouTube. It's the usual steps I take when drawing cartoons in Xtreme. How I draw a sketch first, add the lines, colour, then shading and highlights.

I tried to keep it under 10 minutes and I did just that - 9:42. It's not a finished drawing in the end with all the necessary shading and highlights, but you get the basic idea.

Here's the link. Cartoons inXara

I can always try later and make others, but this was my first - a test really.

No problems viewing it here.

That video is awesome! I can't believe how fast you work...like a machine =)
You should make more of these videos. I found it very educational

If you need more than 10 minutes BTW, you could use dailymotion instead of youtube. Another way is becoming a Director at youtube, but I checked it and they ask for some personal info in the application form :\

Some stuff I did have done ahead of time, just to speed up the video - but I'm glad that there's some educational value to it.

Educational and well done!

Now I need the artistic talent gene. My mother has it, evidently it skips a generation.

I totally agree with "The Alien". It was a very informative and entertaining presentation. Is there a way I can download that from youtube so that I can watch it while I try some of the techniques? Thanks again for the insight.
