Create winning characters that you can license for children’s books, toys, games and more – Bootcamp Special: Character Play 2024 starts TODAY!
A strong character is the backbone of stories, games and more, and that’s why they’re such a great addition to your illustration portfolio.

In this playful but powerful course, you’ll get something from your teachers – brilliant children’s book art director and picture book author Zoë Tucker and art agent and smash-hit game creator Riley Wilkinson – that will help you create some amazing art that’s specifically designed to get you paying jobs.

Art by Make Art That Sells student Kerrisa Treanor for Bootcamp Special: Character Play. First you’ll create a character based on an exclusive mini-text from Zoë, then turn it into a toy with help from Riley! Sign up here.
The first Monday of every month for three months, you’ll get a mini-text and an assignment from Zoë, along with some top tips and tricks to help you start illustrating characters. Then, the following Monday of each month, Riley will help you take those characters you created in week one and make them into an amazing toy pitch.
