Description: Well hello again folks I am back today with some awesome tutorials. This first tutorial is going to be on a character from one of my favorite movies called Nightmare Before Christmas. So having said that you will learn "how to draw Sally" the Ragdoll. Sally is a character based on a hand stitched female ragdoll made form the great doctor Finklestein. His character is portrayed as a “mad scientist” in the movie. Finklestein is also responsible for the creation of the skeleton reindeer for Jacks sled. Lets get back to Sally shall we? Anyways Sally is almost kept a prisoner by her creator and she often poisons his food with sleeping agents so that she can sneak out of the house. Sally has a very different personality and mind set from the other residents that live in Halloween Town. She wants to be something more and she knows that she can do it as long as she is not held down by her creator. When Doctor Finklestein made Sally he was going for either a maid or a companion. But since she came out some what of a rebel and had no interest of being kept cooped up in his dungeon like home, he then later created a different companion for himself. Sally also has a crush on Jack Skellington. She has the ability to foresee the future and what she see's for Jacks big master plain is not good. At first Jack is unaware that Sally loves him. She also tries to tell Jack that what he is about to do is a bad idea. But because Jack is so caught up in the idea that he can do a better job with Christmas, he follows with his plains. Sally is later held captive by the evil Oggie Boogie when she attempts to save Santa. Jack eventually comes to her rescue and the two finally hook up. I thought that a tutorial on Sally would be sweet so here she is. I have to say that she was pretty challenging to do because of all the detailing. There is a total of eight steps to this tutorial so you must take your time when attempting this character. You will learn "how to draw Sally Skellington", step by step. I hope you like this one because I know I do. I think she came out awesome. I will be back in a bit with more drawing fun so stay tuned.
