Mr. Penguin

Add a new raster layer and name this layer eyes, Using your preset shapes tool , your foreground (styles) color should still be on black, your background color also needs to be black. Using your teardrop shape like we did for the penguin's body create as vector does NOT need to be checked, Draw a small teardrop shape for his eye, then using your deformation tool move your mouse over the teardrop shape until you see the arrows then rotate this eye to the right. Once you have your eye the way you want it, go to edit copy, edit paste as a new selection and then image mirror and place on the opposite side, this is what your penguin should look like now

Starting to take shape huh? LOL. Now we want to add the cheeks so change your foreground (styles) color to a dark pink or red. I am using #C00000. Using your airbrush tool with these settings 

Now spray a cheek on both sides of the bill like this. Your image will not have the smile yet we will add that next.

Change your background color to null your foreground (styles) color should be black

Using your draw tool with these settings

Draw your smile like the image below or something similar. 

 Add a new raster layer and name this layer leftarm. Now to add his jacket, Change your background color to a green or whatever color you would like for his jacket I am using #004F00. Using your preset shapes tool using the teardrop shape again with these settings 

Draw a teardrop shape for his left arm. then using your deformation tool move your mouse over the arm until you see the arrows. Then rotate the arm to the right so that it's right next to the body like this

You need to drag this layer all the way to the bottom of your layer palette so that it's under Layer 1. Then go to edit copy, edit paste as a new selection, then go to image mirror and place on the right side of the body. This is what you should have now

 Highlight your eyes layer do not add another layer yet creating this as a vector will create us a new vector layer. We just want to highlight this layer so that when we draw we will be on top of all other layers. Change your preset shape to a rectangle shape, create as vector IS checked for this one. On the left side of your penguin toward the left arm draw a rectangle like this

Using your object selector tool right click and go to node edit, Then on each of the 4 (four) nodes right click on each one individually and go to node type and chose symmetric, We want all corners rounded. On node 1 (one) pull it in toward the bottom of the penguin's face like this 

 

Now take node 4 (four) and pull it to the left side toward the penguin's arm like this 

Now take node 2(two) and pull it down so that it fits under the penguin's head like this

You may have to move around the arrows to get it set just right. Once you have your vest the way you want it right click and go to quit node editing and then to layers convert to raster and name this layer frontleftjacket.  Open your layer palette and drag this layer below your head layer. Then go to edit copy, edit paste as a new selection and then image mirror and place on the other side of the penguin. Your penguin should now look something like this

Lets go on over to page 3 to add his hat .
