Drawing tips

Start with shapes — every character is circles, ovals and rectangles put together.
Big expressions — eyebrows and mouths tell the reader exactly how someone feels.
Keep going — every line is practice. Confident lines, even wobbly ones, look great in comics.
Colour last — get the whole story drawn before you colour anything.
