Draw Anime and Manga Glasses – This tutorial will look at the most common procedures when drawing anime glasses. For the most part, anime and manga glasses are painted the same as authentic glasses, but a few things make them a little different from other styles.

Anime Head Painting and Face (Before Mirrors)

Before you paint mirrors in any style, it is a good practice (especially for beginners) to paint the head and face first.

Understanding the Placement of Anime Mirrors on the Head

In the example above, the mirrors are painted over all the features of the head and face so that you can see how they will be placed on the head (as if the leader is clear).

They will usually rest on the nose and around the ears like authentic glasses.

Because anime noses are made much more accessible (especially in the preview), it may be a little tricky to position that part of the glasses correctly. If you put it too high or too low, it can make it look like the nose is too short or too long. Note this when drawing.

Since anime eyes are usually drawn, they are vast and accurate. You can match that again by drawing larger lenses.

Drawing Glasses in Anime and Comic Style

To preview (as the example above) of the anime glasses is well illustrated as you would draw real mirrors while remembering all the things mentioned in the previous step.

In the side view, the example above, you can see something that is common in anime glasses (though not always). That is any part of the mirror frame that will close the eyes simply by “cutting.”

What is happening? Another speculation is that it simply allows the artist to show the characters’ eyes better and save them time when painting.

Drawing Anime Glasses Down The Nose

In the example above, you can see how anime “cut” mirrors work with different frame parts.

If you want to paint the glasses in this style, leave the eye-catching parts.

Anime Glasses Reflection Effect

Another common trick when drawing anime glasses is to use a display from the tracks, not show them. This can give the character a severe, cut, or threatening look (especially if you are drawing a character with a black background).

Draw Anime Manga Blush – This simple tutorial explains how to draw blue anime and manga and shows a few examples of the most common genres.

In anime and manga, embarrassment can express feelings like love or embarrassment or be part of the character’s appearance.

There are mainly four types of green styles that are widely used:-

• Stripes – indicated by a set of small stripes
• Solid – usually oval-shaped around the cheeks
• Gradient – a more natural-looking dimmer
• Combined – A combination of lines and gradient or solid blur

Drawing Anime Blush With Strokes

The “striped” anime blush is made in just a few lines and is easy to draw. Just make two sets of angled lines around the areas on the cheeks. Make the outer lines slightly shorter for a reddish tinge and the inner lines longer. Identify the combined shape that can fit inside an extended oval. Also, you can make all the stripes equal in length.

Above, you can see an example of a “striped” blush painted with all the facial features.

To get the biggest “stripes,” you can draw it as one set of stripes that go all over the nose area. You can also make the lashes longer in the middle and shorter on the outer edges.

As you can see above, this type of blush may be best suited for an emotional face (in this case, embarrassing).

Drawing Solid Anime Blush

An easy blush to paint. You can show this in red with just a set of two ovals on the cheeks. You can also create these “bean-like” situations instead.

This type of blindness is usually used in an anime style that is very stylish or “Lake,” but characters who look very sensitive can have it.

Anime Girl with a Strong, Tight Blush

Above, you can see what a “strong” blush will look like in a typical anime character.

You can also draw a larger version of the “firm” blush with one shape that runs across the nose and cheeks. It would be a good idea to slightly bend the position to not pass under the nose area.

And in the example above, you can see what this type of blush will look like with all facial features.

Drawing a Gradient Anime Blush

A gradient or a “blurred” brush looks a little more realistic. To draw this in blush, you can blend it out from the bottom of each cheek.

You can see the “blurred / gradient” look and facial features in the example above.

To get a bigger version of this green, you can also make one shape that bends slightly above the lower part of the nose.

And in the example above, you can see the big “blur” and facial features.

Drawing Blush Anime Combined

Some anime and manga blush styles indicate a combination of lines and gradient or solid shape (usually gradient). To draw this type of blush, you first draw a gradient and then add lashes on top (especially if you are drawing with a pencil so as not to damage the lashes).

Again you can see what the blush will look like on a fully exposed face in the example above.

For a larger version of the blended blush, you can also draw it as a large “blur” that passes through the nose area and add one set of lines at the top.

In this last example, you can also see how this blush can look with facial features.

Conclusion

Blush is very common in anime and manga. It is very easy to draw and a great way to emphasize certain emotions of anime characters or personalities.

Draw Anime Hats – This tutorial shows you how to draw different types of anime hats and headwear. Includes a total of twelve step-by-step examples of drawing each instruction.

The Types of Hats and Headwear Included in this Study are:

• Baseball Cap
• A cat ear hat
• Sun Hat
• Santa’s hat
• Winter Hat (with Pom Pom)
• Fedora Hat
• Helmet Wizard
• Hoodie
• Beret
• Cowboy Hat
• Test hat
• Newsboy Cap

If you will draw any of the hats in this lesson using pencil and paper, make sure you make very simple lines until you are almost done. You will need to clear some parts of the drawing through the different steps. The lines in the example have been blackened to make it easier to see. (Draw Anime Hats)

Hair Design With A Hat

Before painting hats, the thing to note is that when you wear a hat, the hair will usually be pressed. This means that when you dye your hair with a hat, you may want to give it a little more volume. Also, keep in mind that anime haircuts are usually pulled out very proudly and real hair, so you can still draw them away from the head even if they are pressed.

Please note that as this tutorial focuses on hat design, it will not go into the details of hairstyling.

You can also experiment with painting hair extensions that differ from the models.

How To Draw Anime Baseball Cap Step By Step

Start by drawing the head frame and the estimated hair volume under the hat, as shown in the above example. Draw a baseball cap over these to get a good place to put it on your head.

Draw the upper part of the cap close to the hairline but slightly away from the top and sides – Draw a bill and bend it over the forehead.

After you have drawn the main shape of the hat, erase the parts of the head and the hair of the frame that should be hidden by it. (Draw Anime Hats)

Next, add a little detail to the hat. Since anime hats are often simplified compared to real hats, you need to add more touch. To this, add a line that follows the draft bill to show the texture baseball caps usually have in that area. Next, add a few lines from the edge of the bill to the top of the sides of the cap to show the different panels the baseball caps are usually made of.

You can see the great drawing of the finished hat and the basic hair shading above.

How To Draw Anime Cat Ear Hat Step By Step

The cat ear hat is very common in anime and manga. It is also easy to draw.

First, describe the head and hair. (Draw Anime Hats)

Draw the upper part of the hat with cat ears attached to the sides with just a few curved lines, as shown in the example above.

The lower part of these hats usually has a thick circular line as part of the design or because the hat is folded over it at the same time. Draw this part as a kind of ring around the head/hair.

Apply parts of the head and hair hidden after painting the hat.

You can finish the painting by adding some hair extensions under the hat.

You can see a great version of the cat hat design with basic hair shading above.

How To Draw Anime Sun Hat Step By Step

Female anime characters usually wear sun hats during the summer.

Start drawing a head/hair frame.

Draw the upper part of the hat a short distance from the hair on the sides with the extra distance between it and the hair at the top.

Draw the hem of the hat with a twist and then add a curve over it, as shown in the example above.

Complete the drawing by adding hair.

You can see a fully removed hat with basic shading above. In this case (except for the hair), only the underside is shaded, as that part will usually be in the shade.

How To Draw Anime Santa Hat Step By Step

Santa’s hat is very common for male and female characters in anime and manga depicting winter holiday celebrations. (Draw Anime Hats)

First, outline the head and hair.

Draw the lower part of the hat with a small inclined angle at the pom-pom.

Add the upper part of the hat by first drawing a line that turns around the head to the pom-pom. Next, draw a line that describes the other side of the hat that bends over but stops before it touches the top of the hat. Finally, draw another curved line from the ear canal to the pom-pom. Draw the pom itself as a beautiful circle without inserting a small curved indent at the top where it connects to the hat.

Wipe the head/hair parts covered by the hat when done.(Draw Anime Hats)

Add fluff to the pom circle as shown in the example above and clear any extra line afterward.

To complete the drawing, add hair.

You can see the big picture of the whole hat with the light shade above.

Similar to the previous example is a winter hat with a pom-pom. This is one of the most common female anime characters in winter.

Draw the head with a hair frame.

Add the upper part of the hat as one large curve is too far away to form ahead at the top and next to it at the sides. Next, draw the bottom part of the hat around the hair/head. Finally, add the pom as a slightly hidden circle behind the hat.

When done, wipe the head and hair covered with a hat.(Draw Anime Hats)

A pom circle draws fluff into small lumps of slightly different sizes, such as the example above. Delete the circle line when you’re done.

To make the hat look a little more interesting, you can add some lines under it (see a step-by-step example or the one below) as a small design item. Draw lines straight across the center of the head and close together as they move sideways. This will help to show that the hat wraps around the head.

You can complete the drawing by adding hair details.

Above, you can see a completed drawing of a winter pom hat with some basic shade.

How To Draw Anime Fedora Hat Step By Step

Male characters, especially gangsters, usually wear this type of hat. Female actors can also wear it, although this is often part of the costume. (Draw Anime Hats)

Start by drawing a basic outline for your head/hair.

Draw the upper part of the head wide downwards and bend slightly at the sides. Then add the middle edge around it.

Wipe the head/hair parts covered by the hat when you have finished painting its main shape.

Complete the drawing by adding a line between the hem and the upper part of the hat as a common fedora design item. You can also add hair details.

You can see a large shady drawing of a fedora hat above.

How To Draw Anime Wizard Hat Step By Step

The wizard hat is very common in dream anime and is usually worn by female characters.

Start by drawing a frame/head, and then draw a hat on top of this.

Every cap should look the same as an ice cream cone facing down but the upper part hanging on one side.

To show the hat slightly tilted upwards, show the other part of the bottom by drawing lines from the bottom left and right on the head facing the ears. These lines will define the inner/back part of at.

Wipe the parts of the head and hair covered with a hat after you have finished painting its outer surface.

To complete the drawing, you can add a small band to the area where the wizard’s hat shifts from the mouth to the top. You can also draw hair details.

You can see the large finished drawing of the wizard top hat with a basic color.

You may notice that the back / inner part of the hat (very low) is shaded a little darker, and the rest as light is often less there.

How To Draw Anime Hoodie Step By Step

Hoodies or hoods are usually very common in anime and manga. Various characters can wear them for many reasons.

Start by drawing a frame on the head, hair, and upper part of the shoulders. Since the hood usually does not press too hard on the head, you can draw the volume of the hair in the same way even when there is no head covering.

Draw the hood itself in two parts, the fabric frame and the hole in it on the face. The outer shape of the hood should first closely follow the shape of the hair (a short distance from them) and then widen as they descend towards the neck. The neck should turn back and head.

Draw the inner shape of the hood similar to the outer shape but first around the forehead and end at the top of the chest with a sharp tip pointing downwards (we will zip up here later).

Wipe parts of the head/hair covered by the hood.

Add another line around the inner part of the hood that begins by following its shape almost exactly and then forms it around the shoulders and toward the lower end of the inner shape of the hood.

Near the point where the line begins to separate from the main inner frame of the hood, draw a second pair of rows.

You can add a zipper and hair details (shown in the step-by-step example or diagram below).

You can see the great hoodie design with basic shading above – You will usually want to shade the inside of the hood black and the other half as that area is usually in the shade.

How To Draw Anime Beret Step By Step

Anime characters sometimes wear the beret as a fashion item or a uniform.

Start by outlining the head and hair. Like a hood, you can leave the volume of the hair undressed (similar to when no hat is worn).

First, draw the upper part of the beret in some way around the upper part of the head but not too far away (berets are usually “puffy”). Then add a little string at the bottom and wrap about half in the head. Draw one side of this piece covered with a wrap from the upper part of the beret that will hang down on one side of the head. You can show wraps with just one curved line, as in the example above.

Complete the drawing by adding hair details.

You can see the beret design above for the basic hair shading to make it look a little brighter.

How To Draw Anime Cowboy Hat Step By Step

Anime characters usually wear a cowboy hat as part of a costume, but some have it as a normal part of their outfit.

First, draw the basic outline of the head and hair.

Draw the bottom of the upper part of the hat with a large curve. This will make the hat look slightly pushed to the forehead (the way cowboy hats are usually worn). The upper part of the head should also be wider at the bottom and narrower as it rises. The top of the hat should have a slight slope in the middle where the hat bends slightly downwards.

Draw the hem of the cowboy hat and its sausage-like shape with the edges on each side curved upwards.

When you have finished painting the main shape of the hat, wipe the parts of the head and hair covered with it.

For basic details, add a shaped wave just below the top of the hat to better show that part is slightly bent downwards. You can also add another line following the edge frame. This line can represent the stitches these hats usually have on the area. The drawing is farther from the front edge and closer as it moves forward towards the back, finally joining two lines.

Complete the drawing by adding hair details.

You can see the cowboy hat with the shading of basic hair in the example above.

How to Draw Anime Explorer Hat Step by Step

The inspector hat is usually worn by anime characters in some adventure, usually in a jungle-type environment.

Calculate by outlining the head and hair.

Draw the upper part of the inspector cap close to half a circle in shape with a very simple curve below. Make the hem shorter. Draw its shape following the lower curve of the upper part of the head a short distance and then slowly exit to the sides.

To complete, you can add dividing lines between the different icon panels of these test hats and the shape button at the very top.

To display the panels, draw curved lines from each side of the hat facing upwards and add a button at the top where the lines meet.

Complete the drawing by adding basic hair details.

You can see a closer look at the inspector hat above and the basic hair shading.

How To Draw Anime Newsboy Cap Step By Step

In anime newsboy caps, it is often the fashion variation of the real thing that female actors sometimes thought of when they came out.

Draw a basic outline of your head and hair before drawing a hat.

Start the hat design by adding the highest part of the hat. It should turn slightly at the head and its sides slightly longer than the top. Then draw a bill and a small piece of string that separates it into half of the head. Draw a bill with a curve that rises to the top of the forehead and then draw a line between it and a hat that closely follows its shape. You will also notice a small wrap added to the middle of the hat to help show that it is made of soft materials.

Wipe the parts of the head and hair covered with a hat after painting its main makeup.

The only additional detail of this model will be a few curved lines to show the separation of the different panels of the hat. Draw lines to make the front panel (facing the viewer) wider than all other panels as they go sideways.

To complete the drawing, you can add hair details.

You can see a large drawing of a newsboy hat with a hair shade on top.

Conclusion

This tutorial covers some of the most common anime hats and headwear types, but there are too many options. Whatever kind of hat you want to draw, you may still be using the same principles as the examples in this lesson. Make a quick headband and measure what the hair looks like under a hat. Then draw a picture of the main shape of the hat followed by small details.

Draw Anime Weather – This tutorial shows you how to draw snow, rain anime-style air, and manga style. Each is divided into a step-by-step description.

Various weather effects are very common and very important in anime and manga. They can help create a certain scene, create a certain mood or show what the season is.

This tutorial shows you the techniques you can use to draw the best-looking scenes using the weather effect and suggests which types of scenes you would like to use.

How To Draw Anime Anime Step By Step

Ice is probably the simplest result of this study. Large snowflakes that fall slightly like the ones in this example are more common in squares that set a holiday or romantic atmosphere. (Draw Anime Weather)

Step 1 – Draw the largest snowflakes

Start by drawing large, medium-sized ice cubes and spread them out on the drawing area. The scenes you draw can be automated but try and keep them smooth without the edges of the gauges.

These will be the “front” snowflakes. Which means they’re going to be big because they’re close to the viewer. The reason why this is important will be explained later in the study.

Step 2 – Add Medium Snowflakes

Add medium-sized ice cubes to fill the front. Draw some of them into small clusters around the big flakes and some in different places alone. The goal is to try to make the falling snow look natural so try and avoid drawing snowflakes with equal spaces/size/shape. (Draw Anime Weather)

Step 3 – Draw snowflakes on the back

Finally draw small snowflakes to fill in the gaps between the hundreds. These will be “back” snowflakes.

Drawing Character in Snowflake

Now if you want to draw a real character with a snowflake (draw before ice) as an example above the most important front/rear snowflakes.

You will want to draw large snowflakes from the first two steps before the character while small snowflakes at the back should be hidden behind them. This will give your drawing a certain depth. (Draw Anime Weather)

Another thing to note is that you will usually want to paint the falling snow on a black background and make white snowflakes without a black frame around them.

You can clear snowflakes if you paint them for the first time but simply paste the frame on the back when shading or coloring them. If you are painting digitally just draw snowflakes on top. Alternatively, you can do this on paper with a non-reflective white paint or a white fix pen.

How To Draw Anime Rain Step By Step

Rainfall is not the same as the previous example of drawing snow but there is a slight difference.

Heavy rain in anime and manga is often used to create the most amazing scenes. This can be both good and bad. An example would be a character walking alone in the rain after a bad thing happened or a wonderful confession of faith. (Draw Anime Weather)

Step 1 – Draw raindrops on the front

Start by drawing large, medium raindrops and distribute them evenly throughout the drawing area. Draw lots of drops on the “solid floor” with narrow peaks. Make some drops longer and some shorter. Like snow, these will be “forward”.

Step 2 – Add Another Medium Rainfall

Draw small size / short drops. Also, draw a few drops of the type in several sections to give them more variety.

Step 3 – Draw Background Rainfall

To complete the rain painting add “back” raindrops as simple lines of various lengths.

it should also be noted that it is usually rain in the anime and manga are drawn entirely by one line per drop. This is also an option you can use if you like. However, in nearby squares like the one below the more detailed raindrops will usually make you look better. (Draw Anime Weather)

Drawing a Character in the Rain

If you want to draw an anime/manga character in the rain and draw them before the drops. As an example of snow, the slight drop of rain in the back should be hidden behind it. You can draw larger drops to hit the character and make a smaller splash as shown above.

Like snowflakes, raindrops often look better than white on a dark background. Unlike snowflakes, you can draw large drops of rain on a white frame without filling everything.

When drawing with pencil and paper it can be a lot of work to trace each dot pattern so you can draw it with black dots or get a white fix pen and put it on top of your pencil drawing. (Draw Anime Weather)

How To Draw Anime Step By Step

The wind is probably a little more complex to “show” compared to rain and snow. Since you can really see it you will need to add some sort of object to the scene to display it. This can be almost anything but leaves, leaves, paper or feathers are common.

Ghost has many apps for anime and manga. Some scenes can be as dramatic as the main character struggling to keep up with the storm. Some can be as romantic as cherry blossoms in the breeze of spring.

The example in this study is most applicable to the latter. (Draw Anime Weather)

Step 1 – Draw Air Streams Ahead

To make it look like wind and not just like falling leaves or foliage draw objects near a kind of path or stream. You can make bright lines as a pattern to help direct and draw leaves/leaves over this or put a picture on your head.

In this study, we will draw objects that look invisible which can be leaves or foliage.

Start by drawing the background and/or background leaves nearby. You just draw the big air streams first. (Draw Anime Weather)

Step 2 – Draw the Air Stream Back

Add more lines to get more air streams that will be much later.

Draw the leaves / leaves in the back next to those again.

Step 3- Draw Bandground Wind Streams

Finally, add the farthest air streams. You can also choose to draw them first in lines as an example.

All the leaves should be slightly different in size but the back leaves should on average be very small.

Drawing Character in the Spirit

Like rain and snow if you wish to draw a character in the air you have to draw before things.

In this example, the largest leaves/petals are in front of the second-largest character behind him. Some are far behind.

With the addition of Bullet Hairs that also travel through the air, the image above really conveys the idea that this is actually a blast of wind and not just a fall of the leaves/leaves.

Conclusion

The effects of weather like snow, rain, and wind are very common in anime and manga. And it is not too difficult to draw although it may take a little time depending on the number of details you want to put in drawing each snowflake/rain/leaf/leaf/leaf, etc.… I hope you enjoyed this tutorial.

Draw Anime Christmas Santa – This tutorial shows how to draw an anime girl wearing a Santa hat. It contains twelve steps with detailed examples of the different stages of the drawing process.

The girl in the model will also be wearing a Christmas dress and will have a fun/happy speech that may be appropriate for the holidays.

This tutorial provides a detailed description of the drawing process; it is very long, but hopefully, that will make it easier to follow it. (Draw Anime Christmas Santa)

Please note that although the ratings used in this study follow most of the general guidelines here on AnimeOutline, they are still somehow posted to this particular character and may differ slightly from those in other similar studies.

Also, note that you will need to clear some of the frames through the different steps. If you are going to draw with a pencil and paper, make sure you draw simple lines to make it easier. You can darken it later when you feel that everything is in the right place.

Step 1 – Draw a Head

Start by making a straight line in the middle of your drawing area. The purpose is to act as a guideline to help you determine if both sides of the face are the same width. (Draw Anime Christmas Santa)

Towards the end of the guide, the line draws the top of the head, as shown in the example. This should be close to the shape in the circle.

Descending from the upper part adds to the lower part of the head. You can also see the separation of the various lines/curves in the example above.

Start with a pair of slightly rotated lines towards the centre of the head, followed by a set of curves. Next, draw another set of lines facing the centre of the head (above the previous set). Finally, connect the two sides with a small chin curve below.

Step 2 – Draw Neck and Shoulders

Another pair of lines go down from the lower part of the head project to show the neck. These should turn into shoulder/shoulder muscles on each side. (Draw Anime Christmas Santa)

Step 3 – Draw Eyes

You can draw a horizontal line that divides the head into two equal parts to set the eyes. Draw eyes directly below this line.

In this section, you can leave most of their internal details as the goal is to find the right size and shape.

Eye space

Please keep your eyes far enough away so that you can put one eye in between them.

Step 4: Draw Eyebrows

Above the eyes draw the eyebrows. In this particular speech, they will be raised, so you will want to draw them with their inner ends slightly raised and their overall shape slightly higher than you would in ordinary speech. (Draw Anime Christmas Santa)

In this case, the eyebrows are very small but do not reach the point of drawing in just one line. You can make several lines to give them the right thickness (especially around their inner edges), but make sure you keep it very simple (at this drawing stage).

Step 5 – Draw Ears

Place the ears and their upper parts near the upper part of the eyes and their lower parts near the centre between the eyes and under the chin.

Leave the details inside the ears as most of them will be covered with hair.

Step 6 – Draw Nose

Draw the nose like the most beautiful dot with its bottom between the eyes and under the chin.

Step 7 – Draw the Mouth

In this case, the girl will be smiling (showing teeth), so the mouth placement will be adjusted accordingly. (Draw Anime Christmas Santa)

The drawing is placed low between the nose and chin, as shown in the example.

Step 8 – Draw Hair

Hair drawing will be divided into three small steps and will divide into different parts (front, sides and back/top).

Draw hair that goes beyond the frame of the head/face features. You can delete the parts covered by it later.

Before entering this step, you can also clear any line of placement features.

Also, please note that some parts of the hair will be covered with a mask in the latest steps and will need to be wiped. However, to help give you a better understanding of how to draw it, you will see full hair extensions below.

Paint Before Hair

Start by drawing the front part of the hair, as shown in the example above. Since these are anime haircuts, draw them into large pieces with straight ends. (Draw Anime Christmas Santa)

Draw the sides of the hair

With this hairstyle, you draw the side parts of the hair to look very nice. Each side can be a large group with a small curve that forms its shape (face hug) and the split-tip below.

Draw Background Hair

Finally, add the top/back section. You can think of this as “back” hair. The upper part of this section should follow the shape of the head a certain distance from it to give the hair volume.

The lower part should be a series of short and medium hair similar to the front section.

Clean Hair Dye

Finally, as mentioned at the beginning of this step, erase the parts of the head/face features covered with hair to have a beautiful and clean design like the example above. (Draw Anime Christmas Santa)

Step 9 – Draw Clothes

This step will also be broken down into smaller steps that will include adding a Santa hat, ribbon and other less visible clothing.

Draw Santa’s hat

Just as you draw hair on your head, draw Santa’s hat on the hair.

At this point, you can easily make the pom into just a circle.

Draw a Cloth

The upper part of the garment is shown in the example above.

Draw the Ribbon

Finally, add a ribbon to the neck. (Draw Anime Christmas Santa)

Ribbon Drawing Step by Step

You can see the split drawing ribbon in the example above.

• Draw lace on the neck
• Insert awareness inside
• Draw a small “bow-tie” that looks like a ribbon
• Add the ends of the hanging rope

Clean Cloth Drawer

Repeat the painting by wiping all the body parts covered with clothing. As shown in the example above, you can then add a ribbon and fluff wrap to the pom. (Draw Anime Christmas Santa)

Draw the fluff into a few pieces (like hair) on the top of the circle, using it as a guide to help maintain a round pom shape. You can delete the circle when you’re done.

Step 10 – Draw Small Details

Next, draw the inner details of the eyes and Eyelashes.

Be sure to add a hint of eyelids over it.

You can also add a small suggestion of curling ear to the visible part of each ear (it may be difficult to see in the example). (Draw Anime Christmas Santa)

Once you are done with this step, you can trace your lines with a firm grip to darken them.

Step 11 – Add Color

Finally, you can color the drawing. In this case, the garment will be red and white. The hair will be brown, and the eyes will be green.

All in all, this will create a beautiful combination of holiday colors.

As you color the hair, you will want to polish the white spots to get highlights, as shown in the example. You can trace these bright ones with the same color and hair later.

When you dye digitally, you can draw the hair color’s highlight. (Draw Anime Christmas Santa)

Step 12 – Add Blush & Shading

Draw the green with a series of striped lines and a combination of bright red around it.

Finally, to complete the drawing, you can add a standard search. Shadows will be added to areas where possible if the character is outside in a well-lit house during the day. (Draw Anime Christmas Santa)

Arrange shadows as follows:

The bottom of the “crimson” part of the hat and under the pom-pom

For curly haircuts and hairstyles themselves (for more on blonde hair, see: How to Hide Anime Hair Step By Step)

On the forehead (hair thrown)

On the upper parts of the eyes and above the irises (you can also color the pupils with the same dark green as they usually darken naturally)

• Around the eyelids
• Next to the nose
• Neck (thrown head)
• Below the “bow-tie” of the ribbon and its inner side
• In the lower part of the “collar” of the garment and under it

Conclusion

This tutorial covers many of the other features you can find here on EasyAnimeDrawing. Although the detailed division of drawing the various parts of the character has made it a long time, hopefully, it also makes it easier for you to follow.
