Jeff Kinney's Cartoon Class - How to draw Greg Heffley

Diary of a Wimpy Kid author Jeff Kinney shows us how to draw the character of Greg Heffley from his bestselling book series.

[@mysterycloak9750]

It's such a simple art style and yet it's freaken hard to draw

[@judesfoodreviews2068]

I often find myself having trouble drawing Greg's highly detailed hands. Do you have any tips on how to draw them properly?

[@gokullal1531]

i know right i thought it was easy

[@bandydo43]

[@argisellek9249]

[@Hectorferjr2]

I called Jeff once and he told me that kids with Cerebral Palsy with moderate Spastic Quadriplegia were welcome to audtion to play the role of Greg Heffley.
It was awesome talking to him.
I tried out to play the role of Greg Heffley back in Janurary 2009 when I was 13 years old.
My audtion got 3½ stars out of 5.
But I like Zachary Gordon as Greg because he also loves the books series and he plays the role of Greg in a similar way that I would of if I won the role 4 years ago.

[@dhshdbfbahdjdjd]

first time greg is smiling

[@crazeloft2984]

[@poweroffriendship2.0]

His "sad face" is his neutral face. It's not like his mouth is straight.
