Creating an effective and emotive character requires one to understand some fundamental principals which must be taken into consideration before and during the character's development. Failure to fully explore the principals of character development will have you suffer in creating an end product which is unique, interesting, emotive and visually appealing. To understand how to develop interesting and visually dynamic character art, consider the three major themes listed below: Character Devlopment:The production of a character who looks like a person who's lived, hurt, fought or experience life in some way prior to landing on the screen/paper in front of you.

Early on in this blog (almost five years ago , actually), I mentioned my love for the tantalizing fragments of comic books I sometimes encountered as a child.
