The Snowman Rule

Description: The snowman rule is a way of designing a character to have proportions that large in one section, medium in another and short in the last a character could be drawn as a 3,2,1, so the proportions of the legs are larger, the middle is, well in the middle and the head is small. This could be done to emphasise the legs for a specific reason. These can also be changed up to have a 1,2,3 where the legs are small, but the heads are large. This concept of designing a character came from EJ Hassenfratz.

Use: Use this as a method to get the base shape and proportions for a character down.
