I need help to create

Hi, I use corel everyday but there are many things I don't do with it.  How do you create cartoon characters?  I know of someone who knocks them out fast I am not sure if they draw it first and scan it?  Or create it as a vector?  Can you please get me started....

  • The best way is to scan it, trace (with PowerTrace) and colorize (you can use the Smart Fill tool or simply draw areas behind the scanned image)

    • There are several ways to achieve that. As Ariel says, the fastest one is draw it by hand, scan and use PowerTRACE. If you prefer, draw your character as pure vector, like in this VIDEO

        Hi.

        I know a couple cartoon artists. They both draw first on paper and then scan in.
