I draw with my favorite heart

Hello illustrator RhenianIt's.

Do you like cute girls and animals, cozy colors, and cute accessories? I draw a series of original characters for my personal project Paint Dolls (Paint Dolls) with all my heart.

The power of your own character

I worked as a graphic designer for a game company, and now I work as a freelancer on casual illustrations such as novel covers and original game characters.

I work as a professional, but every time I draw a picture, it's always difficult, and sometimes it feels difficult. Every time I do that My own characteris the driving force that allows me to continue drawing without giving up painting.


When I create a character of my imagination as merchandise, I feel as much sense of accomplishment as when I finished the painting. Through this class, my character gives dynamismet sense of accomplishmentI want to share it with my classmates!

It might be a difficult class.

The “Characters in My Hand” class is not a class where I draw my own pictures. This is a class where you can create your own characters, study painting, and set a direction so that you can draw on your own.


It may be a class where you spend more time thinking than drawing a picture. However, this concern can reduce the time to reverse the work, and it will be a valuable time to make the results better than before.


-People who draw pictures but find it difficult to create characters

- Those who can draw characters but feel that they lack charm

-Those who want to improve the quality by adding details of the characters

-Those who want to make beautiful merchandise for their own characters


To help these people, I'll talk about all the things I thought about while designing characters, what I did to improve quality, my experiences of failure, and all the know-how I've accumulated.

Beginning of implementation, character design

Have you ever looked at a white canvas and felt overwhelmed with what kind of character to draw?

It won't be overwhelming anymore if you build up ideas one by one, from starting with things you like, to finding themes, and planning and drawing characters. Let's start step by step from the beginning with me.


I'm going to create a variety of characters I want by changing various features and basic body shapes. If you create your own unique character, it will be a fun process of finding your own paintings.


If I made my own character, I would have to find the right color, right? Color is an important element when designing characters. Depending on the color scheme, even the same picture can give a completely different feel.

I'll show you some color schemes that don't fail and what are some attractive color schemes.

Skills to improve the completeness of my paintings

“I want to draw characters quickly, but the human body is too difficult.”

You must have had a lot of trouble like this. In this class, you'll quickly sketch the whole body using human body modeling to express your desired character. Studying will be fun if you think about various croquis poses so that you can create a better character illustration.


Before coloring, I'll also show you how to draw detailed line drawings that will further improve the completeness of the illustration. Even if you don't use pen pressure skillfully, it's okay if you can't draw long lines all at once. Let's take advantage of the advantages of digital drawing and secure it together.


It also includes drawing useful objects that can be used as an ambient decoration or as a background or costume pattern. I'll also show you how to design unique objects that will make your character stand out.


Aren't you habitually bound to one pattern when drawing?

If you make a layout that takes into account the poses of the characters, you can improve the completeness of the illustration even more. Various for everyone to apply Types of layouts I'll let you know.

My character comes alive in three dimensions

Let's make paintings into goods and make them more special with my characters in everyday life. If you show off your goods to your friends, participate in related events, and interact with a lot of people, painting will be even more fun!


Before making goods, I'll learn how to edit my painstakingly drawn pictures to make them stand out, and also tell you what you should pay attention to when printing.

Character design is the beginning of all content.

The characters are used not only in comics, anime, webtoons, theatrical games, but also in various products such as toy stationery brand mascots. This class is a character that you can create in the personal realm of being your own character, but if you repeat the work of designing characters, you will be like an illustrator, game artist, designer, and manga artist You'll have the basic ability to be any creator.


It can be a hobby or a step towards a dream.
