Learn how to draw Danny Phantom

These
days, the Nickelodeon-cartoon Danny Phantom is a real populair
character. On many sites I see people drawing him and I thought it
would be a good idea for those of you who can't draw him and wanna draw
him, to learn how to


Draw Danny Phantom

You heard it correctly.. time to become a ghost!

• 
  
  Step 1 What we first need to do is open a new document and on a new layer start drawing.
  Draw a round shape for Danny's head, a triangle for his body, and stripes for his arms and "tail". Finally some blocks as hands;
  
  
  
• 
  
  Step 2 Since the previous thing was just a scetch, now start the real drawing!
  Draw some hands and arms on the place of the blocks and lines;
  
  
  
• 
  
  Step 3 Add a body to the whole picture and begin drawing his head;
  
  
  
• 
  
  Step 4 Then with a little smaller pencil, start drawing his face. Let's make him look cool!
  
  
  
• 
  
  Step 5 Now that we've scetched Danny, "roughly" color him. And when I say roughly, I mean roughly
  
  
  
• 
  
  Step 6
  No cartoon without lines! This time use the pen-tool to trace the lines
  you've just scetched. That way you get perfect straight lines instead
  of scetchy ones.
  Be aware that you *may* have to recolor something,
  but that's no problem right? This time, again, use a smaller brush for
  the face;
  
  
  
• 
  
  Step 7
  As you may have noticed earlier, I had hidden the scetch-lines. You can
  hide them as well, or throw them away, although I don't support that
  option, because you may need them later if you make a mistake.
  Anyhow, now let's start with the eyes and teeth;
  
  
  
• 
  
  Step 8
  If you did the coloring correctly, you should have different layers
  with different colors. If you haven't done that yet, redo it
  Finished?
  Ok, *now* let's highlight! Everytime you highlight an area, make a
  layer above the layer you want to highlight and press CTRL+G to group
  it.
  Start brushing with a white brush over the hands and hair, then maybe even use a Gaussian Blur to top it off...
  
  
  
• 
  
  Step 9 Do the same for the black area's, only now lower the opacity as well;
  
  
  
• 
  
  Step 10 No highlighting-campaign complete without doing the face, so what are you waiting for?
  
  
  
• 
  
  Step 11 What's that you say? Danny can't hear us? Maybe that's because we forgot to give him an ear;
  
  
  
• 
  
  Step 12 Yeah, black eyebrows sure make him look much tougher and cooler!
  
  
  
• 
  
  Step 13 Now use the pen-tool to draw a funny "tail"-shape at the beginning of Danny's waist;
  
  
  
• 
  
  Step 14 Add an outer glow, or brush it behind the tail... your choice;
  
  
  
• 
  
  Step 15
  And then you're finally done. Congratulations! And have fun putting
  Danny is different positions! If you have some, email them to me
