Cartoon by Daryl Dixon: how I drew Norman Reedus in The Walking Dead<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

There are characters who, although they belong to a television series, end up being part of popular culture. Daryl Dixon is one of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Interpreted by Norman Reedus<\/strong>, Daryl became one of the most recognizable characters in The Walking Dead<\/em>: its appearance, its expression, its attitude and, of course, its inseparable crossbow form an image that is immediately recognizable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That's why I decided to take him to the cartoon field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article I want to teach you how I made my caricature of Norman Reedus characterized as Daryl Dixon<\/strong>, from the choice of the reference to the finished drawing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why Daryl Dixon?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

When I decide to make a caricature of a known character, I'm not just looking for the person to be recognizable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I look for the attitude, the challenge, the possibility of capturing the expression of that character.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the case of Norman Reedus there is a lot of material to work with: the shape of his face, jaw, gaze, hair and that slightly challenging expression that characterizes many of his interpretations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But then there's Daryl Dixon.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The character has a very defined aesthetic. Clothes, hair, attitude and especially expression are part of your visual identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All that offers many possibilities when it comes to exaggerating the features and turning the character into a caricature.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Norman Reedus was born in 1969 in Hollywood, Florida, and began his professional career as a model and actor before becoming an international figure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He participated in films such as Mimic<\/em> y The Boondock Saints<\/em>, but it was his incorporation into The Walking Dead<\/em> in 2010 which definitely changed his career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Daryl Dixon was created specifically for the television series and was not part of Robert Kirkman's original comics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The character grew throughout the series to become one of its most popular protagonists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And an important part of that identity is associated with Norman Reedus himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For a cartoon, this is especially interesting: It's not just about representing an actor, it's about representing the actor. become a character that the audience immediately recognizes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first step: find the traits that make Norman Reedus recognizable<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Before you start drawing, there is something fundamental: observe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A caricature is not simply about making a bigger head or bigger eyes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exaggeration works when you start from a previous observation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Norman Reedus there are certain elements that stand out especially:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
