How to draw a caricature in photoshop
Friends, we will draw a caricature step to step from the beginning until the end.
Well, let us begin...
1. - we open our file with the picture of the pattern to characterize it. It is a Rumanian writer. We should consider that she/he is a character and it deserves respect. We will observe their physical aspect well to be able to determine their more excellent features and that they accentuate their personality.
When analyzing the picture we see their rectangular face, surrounded by their special hair. Their cold and sad look, an aquiline nose and in tip together to a mustache in curve. Their particular suit makes it more mysterious...
2. - we can also do clearly the inclination of the head with relationship to the body.
3. - we use the feather and we visualize these characteristics in another layer using colors that contrast.
4. - we hide the picture of the pattern and envelope a black bottom we appreciate the forms that stand out and they stand out.
to) The hair has two roads.
b) The brow and the eye are a single form
c) The nose and the mustache, equally.
d) The chin finishes the face
and) the body was very simple.
As they come I have achieved a simplification in ways transforming a face into a symbol.
I can also replace it by means of tipografías,como the J, M, U, V, S. Also has similarity in forms achieving harmony in the group and applying the law of the continuity or closing leaves the complete face. We apply our knowledge of design graph to the cartoon.
5. - with these formal parameters I proceed to bocetar the cartoon highlighting these elements but without exaggerating them too much because it could lose their resemblance with the pattern and this is the most important thing.
6. - with a personalized paintbrush and using the plumade paths or lines beginning to draw in another layer on the sketch. Each drawing will have to be in a layer. Example: hair in a layer, slacks in another layer, eye in another layer, mustaches in another layer, chin in another layer, neck in another layer and body in another layer.
These drawings have to make them with a lot of security and tediousness: straight line are right and curves are curved, taking care of their terminations in tip.
7. - once we have finished our drawing in white and black we compare it with the pattern and we give him the necessary finishes as textures, volume, lights, shades, etc. is Also on time of making corrections that we consider necessary.
8. - if we are satisfied with the results, we put our signature and we frame it, being clever for their exhibition and their critics.
Friends, a cartoon is a characterization and the challenge is to look for the mirror of its soul with an intelligence little bit and creativity... The pattern should feel happy and proud of to have it and to conserve it.
Remember that if I can make it, you also.
