Hi Kurt,
The style of the actual character appearances ?
Which look a little bit like some of Ben Caldwell's later stuff, such as
Dare Detectives (see
http://www.darkhorse.com/profile/profile.php?sku=13-194) and his tutorial book
Action! Cartooning (see
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0806987391), but that doesn't have as much to do with vectors, which I don't think he uses, as with drawing style.
Perhaps a bit more like Gary Ham's stuff ? (see
http://www.superham.com/), who I think does work in vectors after pencil sketching.
I suspect many of these are based on the standard cartoon construction lines - skull and jaw shapes, horizontal eye-line, vertical centre-of-face line, line of action, hip and shoulder lines, rib and pelvis shapes, etc.
Or style things like line variation quality, shadow and highlight shapes, etc ?
Such as a tutorial I saw some time back which, for line variation, recommended drawing in thin fixed-width lines then copying each line, moving and/or rotating each copy slightly and joining it back to the original at the ends to form a filled shape which provided reasonable line variation.
Personally, to get a similar line variation effect, I'd recommend drawing in something like Xara X or Expression, which allow you to go back later and change to line styles with varied width.
(The latest non-expiring full-featured preview/beta edition of Expression is currently available free from Microsoft since they bought it from Creature House, if you register for a Microsoft passport account to access the Expression download and forum - see
http://www.microsoft.com/products/expre ... sp?pg=home
My recommendation is to get it while it's available)
If you want to animate it, you could then try to reproduce the effect using Moho's line width tool.
Regards, Myles.
