Hey Floodians! I need a particular style that is super fast and easy to learn and draw for my new cartoon series. I'm willing to draw basically any style, as I had just now failed at manga. If anyone out there could help me find a really fast and easy style for this comic, I would be eternally grateful! Thanks!

OP I am not going to help you draw pr0n.

  • 12.13.2012 3:40 PM PDT

Congratulations. You're literate!

If you want fast and easy, do stick figures. If you want to draw something that doesn't look like it took you no time or effort, be willing to put time and effort into learning how to draw.

Allons-y!

Relevant. I drew this in French class. I call it 'The First Face of Doctor Wasabi'.

Okay, I can tell you already that the series isn't a pr0n series, but an OC series with many characters that all have different personalities. I've seen a few of these on Tumblr and got motivated. This is dedicated, so it's not like I'm asking for an easy Gangnam Style rating. I'm just asking for a quick and easy way to draw characters, because I don't want to spend two days on each character in each frame. And thanks, nice pic for French class.

You could try gaining inspiration from shows like Gravity Falls, since the designs are Simplistic yet pleasing to look at.

Yup.

Manga takes much longer than what you are probably looking for. Try something more simple.

I honestly don't even know what kind of programs animators use. I mean for cartoons like Sponge Bob or Adventure Time

Sometimes, I dream about cheese.

What program are you using?

They don't really use programs, mainstream cartoons are generally only story boarded, then sent to China, and animated by workers, then sent back to the U.S where they are digitally enhanced.


Chinaaaaaa? Even our cartoons go to China?

Yup, making cartoons the traditional way is a long and tedious process, involves drawing a picture, taking a photo of it, drawing the next frame, taking a photo of it, and so forth until you have a film.


Even the innocent things that make us laugh and smile go to -blam!- China? Do we have any pride at all?

Please stop complaining about the 'death of a loved one' it's my job. They probably deserved it anyways. Here's a warning, if you keep making pentagrams out of the neighbors livestock I will personally come to your house and kill everyone you love. Now leave me alone, I got to get back to work.

No way? Even our flag is made there? Why don't we just take the entire country dump it in China and say "here, all yours'
