Character Design Quarterly 33

This issue’s cover artist, Gretel Lusky, shows us how she created the dazzling colour illustration in an in-depth tutorial, and talks to us about her career and inspirations.

Each issue of CDQ is packed full of tutorials and tips from industry professionals. Meike Schneider reimagines a fairy-tale character, Tessa Nelissen shares tips for drawing cats, and veteran comic artist Derek Laufman chats to us about his life as an artist.

Character Design Quarterly issue 33 contains a pull-out print.
