How to Draw Female Anime Eyes Tutorial
Draw Female Anime Eyes – This step-by-step tutorial explains the eye-catching details of the female anime and manga styles and provides detailed drawing examples for each step.
This tutorial focuses on drawing anime eyes for a woman, but there are many other eye painting lessons here on AnimeOutline. Once you have looked at those, please note that some information may be scattered.
The anime’s eyes are almost always wide and wide than real ones. This is especially true of female actors who tend to have bigger and wider eyes than their male counterparts.
One thing that makes a woman’s anime eyes different from a man’s is the very bright eyebrows (long, large, and many of them). This is not always the case, but it usually is the case.
Be sure to make light lines for the study line drawing (if you are drawing on paper), as you will need to clear something with different steps. You can pass your drawing with a solid line once you are done.
Step 1 – Draw the Outline of the Eye
Start drawing with the outside of the eye. In this case, the eyelids/eyelashes.
Step 2 – Draw the Shape of the Iris
Draw the iris facing upwards (compared to the real eye). An oval with a top and bottom are hidden from the eyelids.
Step 3 – Draw Learner
Inside the iris, draw a reader that traces the shape of the iris but is slightly smaller.
Step 4 – Identify the Dark Area Above the Iris
Make a line towards the upper part of the eye to show a slightly darker area created by the shadow and eyelashes visible to the eyes.
You can delete a line that skips the reader in the next step. The reason for drawing it all the way is to make sure that both sides are aligned and that you have a nice and smooth curve.
Step 5 – Draw Main Reflection
Draw a central light source for a primary light source such as a house lamp, fire, or sun. You can delete the student’s location and shadow over the display.
The shape and color of the display may depend on the shape and color of the light source. Usually, you can leave the bright white in anime and give it a normal shape like a circle or oval.
Step 6 – Draw Second Reflection
This display will usually appear in the light of the main light source that bounces off the surface and will be smaller than the original image.
Also, clear the student portion that is overshadowed by the display.
Step 7 – Shade the Different Eye area
Finally, you can trace the different areas drawn in the previous step. If you draw on paper, leave the display white.
Blurred eyelids are also technically part of black eyelashes. Blur the reader black again.
Finally, color the iris gray any color you want the eyes to have.
Step 8 – Add the Upper Eyelids
It should be noted that you can stand on step seven of this lesson and have a traditional anime look, but as the tutorial is focused on the eyes of women, we will add some eyebrows.
The first place you want to add eyelashes to the outer corners of the eye. Usually, eyelashes (real eyelashes) are a kind of fan around the eyelashes to draw anime eyelashes in the same way.
Next, add some small eyelashes to the inner corner of the eye.
Since eyelashes are so small, you can even shade them as you paint them.
There is no need to add anywhere in the middle as these usually tend to point forward and, therefore, visually are associated with merging into a single shape.
Step 9 – Add Eyelashes Below
Finally, add some small eyelashes to the outer and inner corners under the eye to have a complete drawing of the female anime eye.
Color & Gradient
You can also color the eye instead of blushing it and grading it.
To make a gradient, you can trace the iris to be darker on its outer edges and easier to go to the middle.
Drawing Both Eyes
If you draw both eyes simultaneously, draw each step with each eye before moving on to the next step.
Another thing to note is that the bright light will not be reflected and will be in the same position in both eyes.
Anime Eyes Header Direct
To put the eyes on the head, divide the head in half and draw them below the center point.
Please note that real eyes are usually placed directly in this line, but they are often pulled down to the head in anime eyes, especially for young female characters.
Spacing Anime Eyes
To put the eyes out, you can leave a wide range of one eye between them.
Conclusion
Although anime eyes are not so difficult to draw, they have various backgrounds, emotions, and personalities.
