Today we are going to discuss how to draw a simple cartoon character from a sketch in Adobe Illustrator CS4. We are going to learn simple techniques and how to use them to produce a good effect. If you are familiar with Illustrator you will catch-up quickly. This is a very detailed tutorial so no worry for beginners, you can understand easily. So what are we waiting for?  Lets get Started :)

Step 1

Open your Adobe Illustrator. Create a new document with height 600 px and width 700 px.

Step 2

Open your sketch file in Adobe Illustrator.

Hint: Open… > select your file and click Open. Create a new layer above the sketch picture layer, name it as hair.

Step 4

Once you drawn borders fill this objective with color #F7941E, after that you delete borders.

Hint: just select none for stroke color.

Step 5

Now we will move to face. Create new layer call face which should be under of the hair layer. (No need to create new layer for every objects, this is just for our convenience) Then draw the borders of the face and fill with color #FECD8A. Once you filled you may delete border color. That is better.

Step 6

Next draw ear and color with same color #FECD8A. Delete border. (In here delete means select none for stroke color). You may follow the same technique which we used pervious steps.

Step 7

Now before moving to body shall we add some details to hair and face? Ok go to hair layer and start paint as i illustrated below. Draw some shapes and color with dark and light colors. For light color i used #FFD25F

Step 8

For rest of object we will use Gradient Tool (G). Select those options as below. After that color rest objects.

Step 9

Go to face layer and draw an object as below and fill with #E0AA69. this would be kind of shadow.

Step 10

Ok now Hide face object in the face layer for a moment. We will draw nose and mouth.

Step 11

Create a new layer, rename it as sunglass. Ok start drawing sunglass and fill it with black color

Step 12

First draw a rectangle on the sunglass and choose Gradient Mesh Tool from tool window and click center of the rectangle. After this select downside of 3 points and color with white color. See the illustration below.

Step 13

Go to face layer and draw beard. We use the same color which is used to color hair.

Step 14

Step 15

Now we need to draw other parts of the body such as chest and hands. Therefore hide body object in the body layer for a while and start drawing those parts. First we start from dark color, and then go to light color to show the 3D effect. This is the way that i follow. But you can choose light to dark. Ok lets draw. For dark brown color is used #DE9F58
