Azul Piñeiro and Carlos Higuera -silustrators, designers and founders of Estudio Kudasai- are true passionate about the kawaii style and everything related to Japan. Their love for Japanese culture has led them to develop a style strongly influenced by the eastern country, which has opened the doors to work with clients such as Cartoon Network, Papumba or Disney Latin America.
In this course you will be taught to develop the kawaii illustration style by focusing on the character design. You will learn to draw all your facial expressions and your particular anatomy by playing with the proportions of the body. In addition, you will see how to make adorable animals and design the mascot of a brand.
Description
You will start knowing the work of Azul and Carlos, who will also tell you about their influences and their experiences living in Japan. You will also discover what kawaii means and what that style implies.
Afterwards, you will work with the expressions of your characters. And then, you will make your first kawaii character from start to finish.
Azul and Carlos will talk about colors, lines, plots and other resources that you can use to set and create your characters.
Next, you will learn to create animal characters - standing on two legs or on four legs - and you will see what are the "Yuru Kyara", the representative mascots of brands, entities, events and prefectures of Japan. And you will learn how to make your own pet for a brand.
