RikCat Pyramid
In this Color Club tutorial, we’re drawing a RikCat inspired pyramid character with a big eye, chunky mouth, little limbs and a bottle in its hand.

Doodle With Curtiscreationz
Guest artist Curtiscreationz takes over this session, showing how to build a full page of weird doodle characters using just a Sharpie.
You’ll start with one main face, then fill every gap with random creatures, letting the shapes decide what they become.

Doodle with Uhoh
In this guest session with artist Uhoh, you’ll draw a stacked ice cream cone with faces, drips and loads of character.
It’s a simple one to get going with because the shapes are easy to build, and there’s loads of room to make it your own once the basic structure is in place.
