Cartoon 360: Secrets to Drawing Cartoon People and Poses in 3-D by Harry Hamernik

There’s more to great cartooning than drawing a funny face.  You need to match that head to a body, give your character expression and attitude, and move him this way and that to tell your story, all while keeping his look consistent from frame to frame.  Cartoon 360 covers every angle of drawing fantastic cartoon people, from coming up with fresh ideas for an endless assortment of faces, to brining your work to a polished, professional finish with inking and coloring.
