1. First, we open the Adobeillustrator(AI) program, enter the start page, click New or use the shortcut key "Ctrl+N" to create a new canvas. In illustrator's system template, select a canvas with an appropriate size and click Create.
2. Before drawing cartoon characters, we'd better put a good color scheme on AI. When creating, we'd better control the colors around three kinds. Too many colors will be difficult to match, which will affect the visual effect in the later period.
3. Use AI's "eyedropper tool" (shortcut key -I) to draw the color we need on the color circle, draw a small square of 10* 10 with the extracted color, and put it next to the canvas to complete the placement of the color scheme.
4. Then, we use the left mouse button, click and drag the ruler of the picture, and pull out the reference line, which roughly determines the size of the cartoon characters we draw and the dividing line between the head and the body.
5. If there is no ruler on the drawing page of illustrator, you can press the shortcut key "Ctrl+R" to adjust the ruler on the drawing board, and drag the ruler to pull the reference line in the corresponding direction.
6. Use AI ellipse tool or pen tool to draw two smooth patterns as the head and body of cartoon characters. Then we use the pen tool to paint half of it black, and then use the "path finder" to ensure that the black area is in the right position as a shadow.
7. Choose the black area, and adjust the opacity of the black area to about 40%, which can show a good shadow effect, so that we can complete the main drawing of cartoon characters.
8. In the left drawing tool of illustrator, select the Pen Tool to draw the arm figure in a blank position. The drawing method of the arm is generally thin on the top and wide on the bottom, so that other details can be better added under the arm.
9. Select the drawn arm figure, right-click, and select "Transform-Symmetry" in the pop-up menu bar. After confirming the symmetry command, you can mirror the same pattern in the opposite direction and use it as the other arm.
10. After the arm placement is completed, we draw the eyes of cartoon characters. Eyes are generally divided into three layers, the first layer is white, the second layer is any color (subject to the color scheme), and the last layer is the deepened second layer color, thus completing the drawing of eyes.
1 1. Similarly, the drawn eyes can be symmetrical, or they can be directly copied and pasted, and the two eyes are placed in appropriate positions. After that, you can choose the unused colors in the color scheme and fill the background, so that the color scheme is basically used.
12. Finally, draw the shadows and some details of the cartoon characters, and you can complete the drawing of the cartoon characters. When drawing cartoon characters with AI, the most important thing is color matching. Cartoon image itself is very easy to draw, and better color matching can make the result more harmonious.
How to draw a cute cartoon character with love is mainly divided into three parts, picture description, style and size setting.
