Designing a character can be a good undertaking, and it’s easy to drown in all of the possibilities. When starting a character for the first time, it is better to take it one step at a time. For story based characters, it is better to start with personality and character traits. For illustration based character design, it is better to start with visuals. This website will walk through both of these types, but you should find the way that fits your creative goals. Along the way, there will be visual guides accompanied with tips and tricks from fellow artists you may know.

Have fun creating!
