Cute Penguin Character Design | Cartoon Style Illustration | Sketch to Render

his project showcases a cute cartoon-style penguin character created through a structured digital illustration workflow, starting from a clean line art sketch to a fully colored render.

The sketch phase focuses on defining the character’s expression, proportions, and overall shape language. Simplicity and clarity were key to maintaining a strong visual appeal.

In the final colored version, bold and vibrant colors are used along with soft shading techniques to enhance depth while keeping the artwork clean and stylized. The combination of bright tones and smooth rendering helps bring out a playful and friendly personality in the character.

This artwork reflects a modern cartoon illustration approach commonly used in character design, children’s art, and stylized digital artwork.
