I recommend it to people like this!
☑ Those who have started drawing illustrations
☑ Those who want to start illustrating
☑ I want to make my own original character
☑ I want to learn design, I want to expand my design drawer
Online course to learn the flow of character design based on fictional theme settings
This time in this class, while using fictional theme setting materials as assignments, we will first give a lesson where we will finish everything from a design rough to an undercoat as a setting diagram. Then, in the next lesson, I will draw a pose picture with movement that matches the image based on that character.
Once you have learned the basics of character design, in the second half of Chapter 4 and Chapter 5, you will learn ideas for increasing design drawers and costume design as an applied edition.
▼ These are some of the theme materials that are actual assignments used in the curriculum.
After attending the course, be sure to try drawing a one-piece picture with the characters you made this time, increase the number of characters and create your own worldview,Exhibit at events and make books and goodsPlease expand the fun. If you have your own original character, it will lead to an opportunity to do various activities centered around that character.
I can understand and be able to do this!
☑ How to make characters
☑ How to design costumes
☑ How to incorporate and arrange motifs
☑ How to come up with ideas and ways of thinking
The class uses “ClipStudioPaint”
The main software used is “ClipStudioPaint,” but this time the main thing is to create and design characters, so any paint software is fine.
The content of the curriculum is basically a repetition of tasks such as “drawing a sketch → drawing details → painting colors”, so there is no problem even if you are not familiar with the software.
Solutions and methods for when you're having trouble coming up with ideas will also be introduced in the applied edition, so you can create a solid character until the end.

Q. Why did you offer online classes with CLASS101?
I decided to start the course because I thought that by making videos of the knowledge, experiences, and information I learned in the form of a class, it would be useful for those who want to create characters or those who are having trouble making them.
Q. What points did you put the most effort into when planning the class? Who would you recommend this class to?
The content of this class is specialized in “designing characters.” I think the content can be taken by both those who have just started drawing and those aiming for commerce, such as the basics and methods of how to come up with ideas, and designing together in the same way as actual work.
Q. What kind of experience do you want the students to have through this class?
I would be happy if you could experience the fun of creating characters together through this class. Also, for those who have started drawing or are worried, I hope it will be an opportunity to find a design method that suits them.
Q. Please give a message to the students!
Learn the fun of designing and let's create fascinating characters together!
