Hello and welcome to an introduction to cartoon expressions. Today we're going to learn how
to draw all sorts of expressions from happy to sad to angry, and everything else in between.
First, though, we need to cover supplies you're going to need today. We're going to start
off with some really good pieces of white paper. Nice big things on which we're going
to have a lot of room to draw our creations today. Next we're going to the various implements
we're going to be using to put lines down on paper. Starting with a pencil. Good old
basic pencil. Nothing too fancy, here, just to get our lines down and be able to erase
in case you don't like them. Next we're going to have a variety of colored markers when
we cover some coloring today. In terms of like, putting skin shades on, clothing, hair,
etcetera. We're also going to cover a gamut of ink pens. These ink pens come in two different
varieties. First off, we have our nice basic felt pen. And you can get this in a lot of
grocery stores, convenient stores, etcetera. No problem at all there, very common, nice
and basic, and really cheap too. And, on a more specialized front, we're going to have
our more fine tipped felt pens, here. Now these guys are to provide very, very intricate
detail. Really get in there. You know, do things like eyebrow shapes, and mouth shapes,
shading even. Texture and tone. In which, just basically, are other felt pens which
have a thicker top just can't get that level of detail.
