How to Draw Anime & Manga Mouths – Side View
Draw Anime Manga Mouths – This tutorial explains how to draw anime and manga-style lips on the side (profile view) in different regions (closed, open, etc …) and in other expressions.
12 Animations of the Anime Side View
Putting Anime Mouth & Lips On The Head In A Side View
To put the anime mouth directly on the head in a side view, you can start by placing the lower lip about 1/8 of the total length of the lead at the top from the chin. The mouth will be a little more than that.
Drawing Anime Lips in Side View
To draw anime lips, create a side view. You can first draw a line from the tip of the nose to the chin curve. You can use this line to place the lips horizontally.
Understanding How the Mouth Opens
When painting the mouth in any style, it is essential to understand how the jaw opens. The jaw does not just go down like a coffin but instead turns down as if the door swings on its hinges, but unlike the door, it also moves slightly forward.
Without lips, the upper part of the mouth does not move.
Drawing Anime Mouth Side View
To get a regular (closed) side anime mouth, you can draw it with one slightly curved line.
Drawing Open Anime Mouth Side View
For an open view of an anime, the mouth draws the lower jaw and lowers it down. Draw the mouth itself with a smooth curve and then remove the surface of the upper tooth line.
Drawing Wide Open Anime Mouth Side View
Brush teeth slightly below the slightly open mouth. An open mouth draws the jaw lower than the average open mouth for an anime. This is because the lips will be pulled very low when the mouth is wide open and therefore close the teeth too much.
Drawing Shouts for Anime Mouth Side View
With a loud anime mouth, you draw it the same way as an anime open mouth but draw the recessed lips showing more teeth (lips are pulled back when people cry).
Drawing Serious Anime Mouth Side View
Just draw it like a downward curve with an unhappy or crunchy anime mouth.
Drawing Side View of Anime Surprised / Happy
To get a fantastic anime mouth, draw it like an open mouth but draw the lips further inwards as the mouth makes an “O” shape.
Smile Drawing Anime Mouth Side View
To get a smiling anime mouth, draw it with a sharp corner mouth that shows teeth.
Frightened / Frightened Anime Mouth Side View
A scared anime mouth draws it like an anime mouth open but faces down.
Drawing a Grinning Anime Mouth Side View
With a short anime, the mouth draws it like a smiling anime mouth but draws a wrinkle in the corner of the mouth and draws a sparkle of the dividing line between the upper and lower tooth lines.
Confused Drawing of Anime Mouth Side View
For a confused anime mouth, draw the lips as a single curved shape and then draw a curved “O” shape that extends outwards.
Easy Smile Drawing Anime Mouth Side View
To get a slightly smiling anime mouth, close it to a regular anime mouth, but it is long and curved.
