This is a second pass at the ghost character, but slower and more experimental. Same base idea, but this time it’s about tweaking shapes, pushing features and making it your own.
This one is all about drawing a couple of weird little ghost characters with big eyes, teeth, a hanging tongue and a twisting tail. It’s a good one to try if you want something simple to build from, but with loads of room to push your own style.
This one’s all about building loads of small characters into one drawing. You’ll use simple prompt ideas to mix bodies and faces, overlap them, and fill the page without overthinking it.
This version takes the same owl and flips it into colour using Posca pens. You build it in layers first, then bring it all together with black outlines and patterns.
This is a slower version of the wise owl where you take your time and push the details further. It’s all about experimenting with shapes, simplifying where you want, and building it back up with patterns.
This tutorial shows you how to draw a wise owl using thick wonky outlines and loads of fine liner detail. It’s a good one to try if you want something simple to build, then plenty of space to mess about with patterns and make it your own.
This one’s all about packing your page with weird little characters, inspired by Dingbat 2/3. You’re building a tight column of big and small doodles, then tying everything together with lines and a single colour.
Same dragon again, but this time it’s all about colour. You’re building it straight onto cardboard using Posca pens, layering colour first and then tightening it up with black outlines at the end.
This is the dragon again, but with more room to mess with it and make it your own. Same basic character, but this version is all about changing the eyes, wings, textures and little details so it feels more like your drawing.
This one is a wonky little dragon with a big nose, grumpy eyes and oversized wings. It’s a good one to try if you want something simple to build up in stages and then mess around with using spots, creases and your own line style.
This one is based on the chickens from the Chicken Shed in Bristol.You’ll use simple prompt cards to build a page full of different chicken characters, then tie it together with just a couple of colours.
This is the chicken again, but this time done with Posca pens and loads more colour.You’ll build the same basic character, then layer it up with highlights, outlines, and extra details to make it feel more finished.
