In this sketch, I tried to keep it really simple and fun. I drew a dinosaur by hand from a reference image, emphasizing a plush-like body structure. I used the calligraphy tool throughout which worked great for the undulating line. I decided to make the dino think about roaring because this one wouldn’t think about making a ruckus out loud. I added the Rawr! with the text tool, then converted to path so I could apply the Bend Live Path Effect. I created the cloud with the spraypaint tool. Enjoy!
