Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm David Clemen on behalf of Expert Village and today we are going to learn how to draw characters. Now we've drawn the hand, head and all the other parts of the character. They got to have a body to put it on. I am going to give you some examples of bodies that you can use for your characters and you can make up your own as well. I'm going to draw the large man at the restaurant. I don't know. He's going to have a big head, funny looking ears and a big face. He's not really going to have a neck. His body is just going to come out almost like a pear. It almost looks like the bottom of a guitar right here. If you look at the bottom of a guitar that's what his body looks like. But then he's got these really little, skinny little legs underneath that big body. I'm just going to indicate that here. Then he's got these big funny feet. He wears a bib because he likes to eat. His arms come out to the side and he's like, where's the food. Like this. He's happy, because you know; he's a jolly large man. Put this here, put that there.

Alright, now there's an example of an exaggerated body."
