Nice to meet you, I'm Kotora Hu, an illustrator.

In this class, I'll talk about basic character design methods based on the experiences I've drawn so far, and I'm going to create characters together based on that.


“I don't know how to design characters”

“I want to make my own original character”

I hope it can be used as a hint for those who say that.


This is the first step in character design, so this time I'm going to design the character's upper body according to the theme.

First, let's feel free to create characters together!
