C-07 BEGINNER: DRAW WITH LINES

This fun project takes you step by step through the process of setting up proportional guidelines, and drawing the facial features and hair, of a female anime character named Kira

If you choose to render this drawing completely in pencil you need: good quality white drawing paper, graphite pencils, kneaded and vinyl erasers, pencil sharpener, sandpaper block, and a ruler If you plan to use a marker for the final version, you will also need a fine tip permanent marker, and you should use a drawing paper that is specifically designed for drawing with markers, rather than regular paper

Mangas originated in Japan and are popular with artists of every age all over the world! The eyes generally appear disproportionately large, and the nose and mouth tend to be drawn small and simple so as to emphasize the powerful expressions of the eyes

This project is divided into the following sections:

INTRODUCTION

While Mangas originated in Japan, today these comic books, based on a unique genre of cartooning, are popular with artists of every age all over the world! The overall proportions of most manga adult faces closely resemble those of a young human child, giving the characters the appearance of having a childlike head attached to a mature adult body

The eyes generally appear disproportionately large, and are the most expressive part of the face The nose and mouth tend to be drawn small and simple so as to further emphasize the powerful expressions of the eyes and the facial area around the eyes Keep in mind that the term Manga encompasses a vast array of individual styles, which allows artists to use their creative license in the design of their characters’ faces, hairstyles, personalities, and clothing

If you choose to render this drawing completely in pencil you need: good quality white drawing paper, graphite pencils, kneaded and vinyl erasers, pencil sharpener, sandpaper block, and a ruler If you plan to use a marker for the final version, you will also need a fine tip permanent marker, and you should use a drawing paper that is specifically designed for drawing with markers, rather than regular paper

GLOSSARY OF ART TERMS

Curved lines: are created when a straight line curves (or bends) Curved lines can be drawn

thick or thin

Drawing: is the application of an art medium to a surface so as to produce a visual image, which

visually defines an artist’s choice of drawing subjects from his or her own unique perspective

Form: as applied to drawing, is the illusion of the three-dimensional structure of a shape, such as

a circle, square or triangle, created in a drawing with shading and/or perspective

Light source: is the direction from which a dominant light originates The placement of this

light source affects every aspect of a drawing The light source tells you where to draw all the

light values and shadows

Proportion: is the relationship in size of one component of a drawing to another or others

Shape: refers to the outward outline of a form Basic shapes include circles, squares and

triangles

Sketch: is a quick, rough representation or outline of a planned drawing subject A sketch can

also be a completed work of art

Symmetry: is balanced arrangement (sometimes referred to as a mirror image) of lines and

shapes on opposite sides of an often-imaginary centerline

Values: are the different shades of gray created when you draw by varying both the density of

the shading lines, and the pressure used in holding various pencils

SETTING UP FACIAL PROPORTIONS

In this section, simple guidelines show you how to place Kira’s features on her face Keep in mind that the faces of many adult manga characters are similar to those of real life children

I now take you step by step through the process of setting up proportional guidelines on a frontal view of an adult female anime head in preparation for drawing facial features Remember, you can use these same guidelines for drawing tons of different anime characters

Use an HB pencil, and keep your line very light so it can be easily erased This is a line of symmetry and provides you with a guideline for drawing both sides of the head the same size You simply measure various horizontal distances on either side of the center line

Use your line of symmetry to make sure both sides are approximately the same size

ILLUSTRATION 07-01 ILLUSTRATION 07-02

4 Measure the distance from the top of the head to the chin along your line of symmetry

Remember to keep your line very light by applying very little pressure to your pencil as you draw This line marks the placement of the tops of the eyes

this distance in half, and mark it with a dot

This line marks the location of the lowest section of the tip of the nose The mouth will be drawn below it

ILLUSTRATION 07-03 ILLUSTRATION 07-04

SKETCHING KIRA’S FACE AND HAIR

It’s now time to use the proportional guidelines to begin sketching Kira’s facial features and hair

in their correct places

head along the upper horizontal line

10 Mark each point with a dot (or a tiny vertical line)

These two dots mark the vertical centers of the eyes Now you know both the position of the top of each eye (the upper horizontal line), and where the center of each eye will be

11 Lightly sketch two circular shapes to represent the eyes

Observe that the bottom of each eye ends approximately halfway between the two horizontal lines Also note that the distance between the eyes is slightly more than the width of an eye

ILLUSTRATION 07-05 ILLUSTRATION 07-06

With lots of practice in drawing manga faces, you won’t need to draw the proportional lines with a ruler You’ll be able to simply eyeball the lines and distances in your mind

ILLUSTRATION 07-07

above the lower horizontal line to represent the lower tip of the nose

13 Add a line almost halfway down from the lower horizontal line

This line marks the placement of the lower edge of the bottom lip

ILLUSTRATION 07-08

14 Draw Kira’s ears (or ear)

You only need to draw the one on the right because the other will be hidden under her hair Take note that the upper edges of the ears touch the upper horizontal line, and the bottoms touch the lower one

15 Carefully erase the guidelines including the line of symmetry

You may need to redraw a few sections that are accidentally erased

Drawing a realistic circle freehand becomes quite simple when you’ve devoted lots of time to practicing this skill A couple of helpful hints include:

1 Try rotating your paper and looking at your drawing from different perspectives This little trick often allows you insight into the problem areas

2 Looking at the reflection of your circle in a mirror will also help you to see areas in need of fixing

ILLUSTRATION 07-09

16 Sketch in the various strands of hair

around her face

Refer to Illustration 07-09 and Observe

the following before you begin to draw:

a The lines are all curved even though

her hair looks straight

b All sections of hair end in a sharp

point

c The strand on the left side of her

head is longer than the one on the

right

d The longest section of her bangs is

right in the middle and the lines

curve toward the left

ILLUSTRATION 07-10

17 Use your vinyl eraser to erase the sections of her ears that appear to be hidden under her hair

18 Sketch the strands of hair around the perimeter of her head

Take note of the distance of the strands of hair from the

perimeter of her head to help you draw your proportions more accurately

THE PARTS OF AN EYE

The same names that identify the various parts of realistic eyes are used for anime eyes Refer to the next drawing and become familiar with the terms used to identify each part of an eye:

1 The arch-shaped group of hairs, above the eye, is known as an eyebrow

2 A fold in the skin, above the eye is called an upper eyelid crease

3 The upper eyelid is a movable fold of skin that opens and closes to protect the eyeball

4 A small triangular shape in the inside corner of the eye, is called the inner corner (rarely

drawn in manga art)

5 The white of the eye (the visible section of the eyeball) is light, but not really white

6 A highlight is the brightest area where light bounces off the surface of the eye

7 Eyelashes are fine hairs that grow from the outer edges of the upper and lower eyelids

8 The pupil of an eye is the darkest circular shape within the iris

9 The iris is the colored circular section of the eyeball surrounding the pupil

10 The lower eyelid is a fold of skin protecting the lower section of the eyeball

ILLUSTRATION 07-11

In the following sections you discover all the fun parts of this project You first add more details

to Kira’s face and hair, and then outline your drawing with nice neat lines

DRAWING THE INDIVIDUAL FACIAL FEATURES

The faces of adult anime cartoon characters are very similar to those of children In this section,

simple guidelines show you how to draw Kira’s eyes according to manga style

ILLUSTRATION 07-12

19 Sketch Kira’s

upper lip above

the line that

indicates the

location of her

mouth

The line that marks

the mouth (step 13),

now becomes the

bottom of the lower

lip Take note that

the width of her

mouth is the same

as the space

between her eyes

ILLUSTRATION 07-13

20 Add a slightly

curved line along the

lower edge of the

two circles

Note that the lines

extend beyond the eye

circles on both sides

At this stage the

drawing looks like an

anime character with

her eyes closed

However, in this

drawing these lines

indicate the edges of

the lower eyelids

ILLUSTRATION 07-14

21 Add a curved line to the

upper section of each eye

to indicate the edges of

her upper eyelids

These lines are longer than

those marking the edges of

her lower eyelids

ILLUSTRATION 07-15

22 Add Kira’s eyebrows

above her eyes

The eyebrows are shaped

like commas with the wider

ends pointed toward the

upper center section of her

forehead (hidden under the

hair)

ILLUSTRATION 07-16

23 Outline the irises of

Kira’s eyes

Observe that a small

section of the top and

bottom of each iris seems to

be hidden under the upper

and lower eyelids

24 Slightly extend the lines

marking the upper eyelids

toward the center of her

face and downward

ILLUSTRATION 07-17

25 Add a smaller circle

inside each iris to

represent the pupils of the

eyes

Observe that a small

section on the upper left of

each pupil is a short straight

line rather than a

continuation of the circle

SKETCHING MORE DETAILED INFORMATION

Anime cartoons tend to be rendered with thin neat lines.Keep a pencil sharpener and sandpaper block handy so you can easily keep your pencil points nice and sharp

ILLUSTRATION 07-18

26 Use your kneaded eraser to

lighten all the lines that define

the hair until you can barely see

them

27 Use a very sharp pencil to outline

each strand with neat crisp lines

You may need to re-sharpen your

pencil several times as your work

to keep the lines thin and neat

If you plan to later use a fine tip

marker to outline Kira, use a 2H

pencil

Should you prefer to finish your

drawing in pencil rather than pen,

consider using a freshly sharpened

2B pencil You may want to use a

sandpaper block to keep the point

very sharp

ILLUSTRATION 07-19

28 Use your kneaded eraser

to lighten all the lines of

her facial features, ear,

and the outline of her

face

29 Redraw each section with

thin neat lines

ILLUSTRATION 07-20

30 Draw a U-shaped line in

the upper left section of

each iris

The circular shapes created

when you add these lines

are referred to as highlights

In that these highlights are

more on the left than the

right, we can safely assume

that the dominant light

source is coming from the

left

ADDING FINAL TOUCHES WITH THIN NEAT LINES

The final lines can be drawn with either pencil or a very fine tip black marker In this section you will complete your drawing using either of the following methods:

If you are working in pencil, add the details of the eyes and tidy up any untidy lines Keep

your pencil points nice and sharp

If you are planning to use a marker, first lighten all your pencil lines until you can barely see them Then you take your time and slowly and carefully redraw each line

ILLUSTRATION 07-21

31 Check over the upper face

and change or modify any

sections you are not

happy with

32 Add final touches so your

lines are all neat

ILLUSTRATION 07-22

33 Add a slightly curved line

above each eye to

represent the upper eyelid

creases

ILLUSTRATION 07-23

34 Fill in the pupils of the

eyes

If you are using pencil use

a 4B or 6B

ILLUSTRATION 07-24

35 Fill in the upper section of

each iris around the

pupil

ILLUSTRATION 07-25

36 Add some eyelashes along

the upper and lower

eyelids

ILLUSTRATION 07-26

37 Add some lines extending

from the pupil outward to

the edge of the iris in the

upper sections

These lines help make the

eyes appear more realistic

38 Finish outlining all other sections of your drawing

ILLUSTRATION 07-27

Sign your name, put the date on the back of your drawing paper, pat yourself on the head, give yourself a big hug and choose another

Of course, if you want to add color to your drawing, you have

many options such as markers or colored pencils You can even

bring your image into a computer program and add colors

The drawing below was colored with Adobe Photoshop
