I am trying to determine the general name for this kind of sketch. I've been calling it a frame sketch or a ball-and-stick sketch for some time now, but I'm pretty sure that's wrong (especially since that would get really confusing with animation).

Does anyone know if these actually have a name, or should I just keep making stuff up?

    Geometric Anthropomorphic Minimalist Expression (G.A.M.E.) ? I don't know. This is a good question.

I would call this a character wireframe. Googling for that term gives images like this:

These are often used in "How to draw X" tutorials.

    There is an explicit 'do not distribute' message in that second image. Are you sure you want to release that into our copyleft license?

  • I think this is not any kind of distribution, just a copy link from the source page and I'm not selling it. Maybe I'm wrong.
