Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of drawing tools, in particular to an animation character model ruler (referred to as animation ruler), which is especially suitable for an auxiliary tool for quickly sketching in animation drawing, and improves drawing accuracy through a standardized proportion system and an adjustable structure. BACKGROUND

[0002] Currently, there is no animation ruler designed for beginners in drawing. The observation ability and hand coordination ability of beginners are very weak, and a lot of practice time is consumed in the sketching stage. The practice of character deepening and detailing is weakened. Moreover, most self-study groups lose confidence in learning due to self-denial of their abilities. Through the animation ruler, beginners can improve their confidence, and a lot of practice can exercise hand coordination and the ability to delve into the picture, increase self-confidence, and improve the sense of achievement. Long-term practice can improve observation ability and error correction ability. In the later stage, the animation ruler can be used to accurately sketch, which is very beneficial to non-professionals and beginners in drawing. While learning to draw, more time can be saved to learn other subjects. For professionals, the animation ruler can quickly sketch and improve the efficiency of creation. Currently, there is a lack of special auxiliary tools for beginners in animation drawing. Traditional drawing teaching has the following pain points: insufficient observation ability: beginners have difficulty accurately grasping the proportion relationship of the human body; hand-eye coordination difficulty: most of the practice time is consumed in the sketching stage; steep learning curve: most self-study groups give up in the early stage,

[0003] To solve the above-mentioned shortcomings and help more beginners in drawing improve their self-study ability, the animation ruler can be used to easily draw the shape of a character after mastering the use method. The animation ruler can be used to freely create the shape of a character, find the fun of learning, and prompt a good experience of drawing. The purpose of learning is to make it self-initiated learning, tap the initiative of learning, directly contact the creation practice experience, experience the fun of creation, and save more time. Animation enthusiasts are mostly student groups. Students mostly enjoy creation and learning. In limited time, they can more efficiently learn quality education and be trained. The animation ruler can also cultivate professionals who truly enjoy drawing. The animation ruler can be used to cooperatively match the two-dimensional operation and three-dimensional modeling, and match the full proportion coverage static template and dynamic model from two-head to seven-head. SUMMARY

[0004] The animation ruler has hollow a form ( Figure 1 ) and folding b form type ( Figure 2 ). According to the proportion of a character, each set is composed of an animation character model ruler a and an animation character model ruler b, such as set one 2-head animation ruler, set two 2.5-head animation ruler, set three 3-head animation ruler, and set four 4-head animation ruler. Each proportion of a character has a front ruler and a side ruler, which can meet the needs of animation drawing enthusiasts and allow them to choose their favorite animation ruler.

[0005] Anime character model ruler: There are model ruler a and model ruler b, which are made of single-layer transparent PVC sheet and are used for drawing anime characters. Anime character model ruler b is a foldable and movable anime character model ruler. After the combination of the anime character model ruler b, the shape of the character is consistent with that of the anime character model ruler a: ( Figure 3 、 Figure 4 ); Model ruler a is a template ruler with hollowed-out outlines of anime characters and limbs ( Figure 3 ); When the model scale b is not assembled, the outline of each limb unit is consistent with the hollow shape of the limb corresponding to the model scale a ( Figure 4 ). Anime character model ruler, model ruler a Its characteristics: the center area of ​​the anime full body hollow image ( Figure 1 ); hollowed-out figures of limb parts distributed symmetrically on both sides; among them: the 4-head body model has 12 hollowed-out figures of limbs, including two upper arms, two lower arms, two palms, two thighs, two calves and two soles of the feet; the 3-head body model has 8 hollowed-out figures of limbs, including two upper arms, two lower arms with palms, two thighs and two calves with feet; the 2.5-head body model has 8 hollowed-out figures of limbs, including two upper arms, two lower arms with palms, two thighs and two calves with feet; the 2-head body model has 4 hollowed-out figures of limbs, including two whole arms and two whole legs.

[0006] The invention relates to a cartoon character model ruler, characterized in that the model ruler a is in the shape of a rectangular plate with rounded corners; centimeter scale lines and proportional scale lines corresponding to the head-to-body ratio are set on the edges of both sides.

[0007] The cartoon character model ruler is characterized in that the model ruler b: each limb unit is connected by a movable joint with metal rivets; and has a certain degree of tightness and does not become loose after rotation.

[0008] Anime character model scale, which is characterized by including four sets of proportion systems: Set 1: 2 head-to-body ratio ( Figures 21-24 ); Set 2: 2.5 head-to-body ratio ( Figures 17-20 ); Set three: 3 head to body ratio ( Figures 13-16 ); Set 4: 4 head to body ratio ( Figures 9-12 ), each system corresponds to the standard front standing posture.

[0009] The head of the cartoon character model ruler B is provided with: a hollow oval eye structure; and a downward-curved flat semicircular mouth hollow structure.

[0010] The anime character model ruler a is a flat ruler, and the anime character model ruler b folding type is composed of two upper and lower layers, which is also a flat feature. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0076] Hollow model a( Figure 2 ) It is easy to use. The figure in the middle is hollowed out as a static figure. When you need to draw a dynamic figure, draw the head and torso first. The anime ruler also has limbs hollowed out. You can draw the required dynamic figure through the hollowed-out limbs.

[0077] Folding type b( Figure 5 ) is more convenient, has a stronger sense of operation, and can quickly fold out the required character action form ( ​ ), the disadvantage is that the object is lost during operation, the operation process requires careful and slow folding, and the joint connection is designed to be slightly tight. If the joint is too loose, it will not be conducive to the depiction operation.
