Character Design Quarterly (CDQ) is a lively, creative magazine bringing inspiration, expert insights, and leading techniques from professional illustrators, artists, and character art enthusiasts worldwide.

Each issue provides detailed tutorials on creating diverse characters, enabling you to explore the processes and decision making that go into creating amazing characters. Learn new ways to develop your own ideas, and discover from the artists what it is like to work for prolific animation studios such as Disney, Warner Bros., and DreamWorks.

This issue's cover is provided by incredible artist Feefal, who has worked with us many times before (including on her own Art Of book). Johanna Forster takes us inside her sketchbook, sharing how she uses real-world references to build up a library of character ideas. Sheryl Yap has a collection of tips for how to make original and effective character turnarounds, a crucial skill for working as a designer at animated-film studios. David Ardinaryas Lojaya, Art Director of the hit game Coral Island, talks to us about creating characters for video games and his professional design process.
