  1. The first step towards drawing carton people is to draw the basic shapes of the people with a pencil. Draw oval shapes for the heads of each cartoon. You can add “V”-shape structures in case you are drawing the face of women.
  2. Next step is drawing the body parts of the cartoons. For each cartoon, create the upper part of the body with larger oval shapes than the face and place it just below the head. Then, create the waste part by adding inverted triangle below the larger oval shape. The triangles form the hip area of the cartoon people. It’s better to create wider triangles for female characters to make the hip look wider.
  3. After the body is designed, you can add hands and legs to the structure. Attach the hands as lines drawn from the bigger oval shapes. For some, cartoons you can draw straight lines and for others, you can draw ‘L’ shaped lines that appear like the hands are bent at elbows. Add small circular guidelines to make fingers at the end of the hands. Create the legs by drawing downward lines from the inverted triangles. Attach feet to the legs in the form of small triangles. Then draw parallel lines near the hands and legs to make them appear thicker.
