Step 1 Tracing the structure.

It would be foolish to sit down and try to draw a character without first understanding it's srutcture. So the first step is to overlay John k's drawings with layout paper and draw the structure on top. I know..tracing may seem like cheating, but this is the best and easiest way to figure out the structure of a character.

George's head structire seems hard to understand at first. The closed mouth normal face george is based off a ball shape. So I'm going with that one. My assumption is all the rest are just squash/stretch versions of that.


His body seems like a sack of Potaotoes to me .He also seems to have bigger upper body, but at times the weight distribituion changes that.
He looks like he would be really fun to animate.
