Tip #16: Modifying Characters

by toonup related [toonlet.com]

Warhol - happy: HELLO AND WELCOME TO TOONUP! CASADETODD HAS A QUESTION ABOUT BUILDING CHARACTERS AND MOODS.
Todd - Lecture: WHEN I CHANGE A MOOD FOR A NEW PANEL, IT CHANGES ALL THE PREVIOUS PANELS THAT USE THAT MOOD, TOO!
Warhol - explaining1: CHARACTER BUILDING CAN BE TRICKY IF YOU DON’T UNDERSTAND HOW TO NAME CHARACTERS AND MOODS.
Todd - What?: BUT I JUST WANT TO MODIFY IT A LITTLE BIT AND KEEP THE ORIGINAL IN THE PREVIOUS PANELS.
Warhol - point left up: LET’S SAY YOU HAVE A CHARACTER NAMED TODD, AND THE MOOD NAME IS SET AS "HAPPY."
Warhol - point right up2: THEN YOU DECIDE TO MAKE A VERSION THAT IS WAVING. GIVE THE NEW VERSION A NEW NAME.
Warhol - smiling pointing: YOUR ORIGINAL COULD BE "TODD: HAPPY" AND THE NEW VERSION COULD BE "TODD: HAPPY WAVING."
Warhol - Talking tilt head: NOW YOU HAVE TWO VERSIONS AND THE ORIGINAL VERSION STAYED THE SAME.
Todd - question: BUT HOW DO I CHANGE THE PRESET NAME OR GIVE A CHARACTER AN ENTIRELY ORIGINAL MOOD NAME?
Warhol - explaining1: EASY. CLICK ON THE MOOD NAME AND SELECT THE TEXT. NOW ENTER YOUR OWN TO REPLACE IT AND SAVE.
Todd - thumbs up: GOT IT! THANKS A LOT! I CAN’T WAIT TO START BUILDING MORE CHARACTERS AND MORE STRIPS!
Warhol - Psst!: IF YOU FOLLOW THE "RELATED" LINK, KEITH DENNIS MADE A GREAT TUTORIAL ABOUT THIS.
