Laying Out My Character (1)

Today is my first day of creating my character in Adobe Illustrator. Since I will be animating this later on I have to make the limbs in a specific way so I can animate them smoothly later on. I started making my character on one file, and each body part on a separate later. After finishing a part I’ll copy it, paste it into a new separate file, and save it as a png for later. Today all I did the base of the star and I just started doing some shadows, highlights and the facial features. While doing the shadows I noticed that I have to make them in a certain way so that when I animate the limbs it stays in its place and so it doesn’t look awkward.
