How To Draw Anime Characters

*Start With a Basic Body Sketch. Make Sure To Draw LIGHT!
*I have Seen So Many Newbies try Too Hard At The Basic Bady Forms. DON'T! No Body Form Should Take More Than Three Minutes To Complete. *Use A Circle For The Head. A Smaller Circle For The Neck. A Line For The Shoulders, And So On.
* And Adult Person Should Be 6-7 Head Lengths Tall (The Lines At The Side Of The Picture Young Children Three Head lenghts And Older Children 4-5 Tall
*Once Again, Make Sure You Draw The Sketchy Form LIGHT and QUICK Don't get hung up On Making a Circle perfect Or A Leg Too Short, It'll Be Completely Erased later So Don't Worry!

*Ok, Now, start To Draw The Sort-Of Final Lines You'll Still Be getting Rid Of These After You Pen It, But These Are More Important Lines Than The Sketch *Still, Don't Get Hung Up On being Perfect, This'll Be Gone Soon Too

*Ok, now That You've Got Your Final Lines, race Over Them With Pen.
*Make Sure You Are Using A Quality Pen, Not A Junky ballpoint. I personally Use a Superfine Permanent Marker, But You Could use Whatever You Want
*Then Erase All Pencil Lines After You Are Done Penning. *Color And Enjoy!
