Introduction
This post will explain how to use the frame method in drawing.
Materials
- Pencil
- White paper
- Sharpie markers (fine tip and wide tip) – blue, navy blue, brown, gold, black.
- Access to this post. 😉
Instructions
- Draw a circle or Elliptical with a line going each way, inside the circle. (head)
- Draw a line down from the head and then draw a line across that one near the top (neck, spine, and shoulders) then draw one on the very bottom of the new line protruding from the bottom of the head. (waist)
- Draw a big circle that covers up most of the lines we just made (torso). Make a big dot at the ends of the shoulders [outside the torso].
- Draw a diagonal line from the dots, then make the same thing from this dots again and put a un filled in circle at the end of the lines (arms)
- Do the same thing for the joints under the torso and you got yourself some limbs.
- Draw circle over the different segments you made, make sure to overlap them. It will help later (arm structure). Next add detail, you can make it what ever you want now just as long as you erase the skeleton we made earlier underneath.
- Give it texture. Shadows, scratch marks, fire, what ever you want.
- Outline each part of the character with the black sharpie to make the photo more permanent.
