I would like to acknowledge the Art Institute of California San Diego for awarding me the Winter 2009 Sabbatical, which allowed me to complete this book. I would also like to acknowledge Pam Wissman, Editorial Director at IMPACT Books, for giving me the opportunity to write a third book. Thank you to editors Kelly Messerly, who was patient with me for the entire process, and Amy Jeynes, who helped wrap this project up. Last, thanks to my kids, Josie and Silas, who helped Daddy finish all the drawings.
This book is dedicated to my beautiful wife, Kate. All the success I've had and will have is a result of your love and support. I Love You.
This book is for anyone who draws cartoons and anyone who wants to. That's a lot of people. This book will help anyone draw cartoons or draw them better:
Novices can learn the secrets of cartooning from the ground up using my step-by-step approach.
Amateurs can use the character design fundamentals taught in this book to overcome learning plateaus.
Professionals can use the steps as a way to break out of their creative routines and expand their drawing horizons.
My method for drawing, constructing and finishing cartoons works with any drawing style. Plus, my method helps ensure that all mistakes are corrected before you begin the final art, making cartooning faster and more fun.
Enjoy drawing!

Have you tried cartooning but been dissatisfied with the results?
Have you ever drawn a great cartoon only to find that you could not draw the same character again to save your life?
My 3-D drawing method solves those problems. Read this book and work the lessons in order, from start to finish. With practice, you will be able to design great cartoon characters and draw them again and again from any angle and in any pose you want.

Simple materials are all you need for drawing cartoons. Anything you don't already have, you can get at your local art supply store or online.
Portable Light Table
A light table is essential for constructing cartoon characters. It may take five to ten drawings to complete one inked, colored cartoon. Tracing lets you keep the good lines from the previous drawing so that you are not introducing new drawing errors with every step.
Ruler
You'll need a ruler for measuring and for marking straight lines when constructing cartoon heads and bodies.
Circle Template
I have used circle templates throughout this book to draw accurate circles. Cartoon heads always start with a circle, and body height is measured in head circles, so accurate circles are important.
Pencils
I like to sketch in blue colored pencil. Then I use a regular no. 2 pencil to darken the lines I want to trace.
If you want to sketch with colored pencil, choose a type that erases well. I use Col-Erase colored pencils by Prismacolor.
