- So this is a slightly tightened down gesture drawing…from the previous movie, so what I'm going to do now…is show you the process of putting the character…on top of this, the process of tying down the rough.…So let's put a clean sheet over this drawing…so we can draw cleanly on top of it without…getting all tangled up.…So where you begin on this could be largely be a matter of…what you think is the most important part of the figure.…What you think is going to be the biggest single challenge.…And it might be an idea, so you don't waste too much time,…to target the hardest point because if you can't…crack that then the entire drawing could be moot.…
I think that the hardest point will probably be…this area here with the character who has a snout.…So let's put the snout in, and remember that the…snout will be if you imagine that the head,…for example we have our eyeline, centerline,…and these go through the head.…And imagine the point the nose coming up…at that angle.…That's how I'm positioning it.…Of course you can cheat that,…
