Anime Boy Face Drawing – This tutorial explains how to draw the head and face of an anime woman step by step. The main focus is on creating an older woman who looks good in anime/manga style in line with the facial features common to that character.

An anime woman Draws 8 steps.

In this study, the woman’s age can be anywhere from the late 20s to 30s.

If you follow a drawing on paper, try and keep your lines very simple as you will need to clear the head parts in some of the steps. If you are digital, you may have many options depending on the software you are using.

Step 1 – Build & Draw Head

In the head of a middle-aged anime character, draw “longer” (more extended straight) than you would in a younger person. Kids usually have a rounder face than adults, so a longer face will automatically make the character look older and more mature.

You can start drawing a shape next to the circle for a preview. Draw two lines and the other two vertical lines from the intersection to form the chin.

With a side view, you can draw the top of the head like an egg and add the lower part. This can be difficult as you will want to show the nose quickly. As suggested earlier, you can make a rough drawing with light lines first, measure where the nose should be, and adjust your picture later if necessary with a sniffle look at step four of this lesson.

In the meantime, draw a line between the tip of the nose and the chin as one line. The details of the mouth and lower part of the nose will be added in later stages.

Step 2 – Place & Draw Ears

Please note that the ears will cover the hair with the latest steps, so painting them may be optional. However, it may be a good idea to show the characters (even if you delete them later) as they can help you judge whether or not they look suitable for your character. Drawing ahead without eras may seem unusual. It is also good to know how to style yourself to paint different hair.

To place the ears, draw a horizontal line between the head and the line between that and the chin. Draw ears between the two lines.

Step 3 – Place and Draw Eyes

Big and wide eyes often make the characters look younger. For adult anime, characters draw eyes straight and small irises/readers relative to the rest of the eye.

To keep an eye out, you can use a horizontal line formed in the middle of the head in the previous step. Draw it below it.

For a preview, draw eyes wide enough for one eye.

You can see all the eye painting steps in the example above; however, you must complete the whole face painting before adding color. You can return to this example if you need it when working on the final step of the lesson.

Step 4 – Place & Draw Nose

When you place your nose, you can re-use the lines in the previous step. In this case, its bottom will be in the same line as the bottom of the ears.

To draw the lower part of the nose in a side view, you can see the next step, mainly tied to the lip liner.

When drawing a front view of the nose, you can show it as two straight lines. Please make a short line in the lower part of the nose (below the point) and another long one above it. A small gap between these will indicate a tip.

Step 5 – Place and draw Mouth and lips

Anime lips are drawn as a single line (usually broken in the middle). Lips are generally not shown at all or are pointed. However, older characters are sometimes painted with more prominent facial features so that the mouth will be better defined in this case. The woman will also be wearing lipstick which means the lips can be exposed.

Keep the mouth so that its lower lip is in the middle of the lower part of the nose and under the chin.

You can see a close-up drawing of the mouth and lips with the details in the example above. Repeat until you have finished with each face painting line to add color.

Step 6 – Draw Hair

To do this, draw the upper part of the hair and the head’s shape. You can paint the coat into separate pieces with light curves/waves on them as the hair falls out.

Step 7 – Clean the Drawing

Once you have completed the previous steps, clean your drawing and erase any guidelines and sections of hair covered with hair. You can then trace over your lines to darken. However, do not follow over the frame of brightness and shadows in the eyes. Leave those simple lines to blend in well with the color/shade added in the next step.

Step 8 – Color in the Drawing

To color and shade, your character first fills each area like hair and skin with a solid color and then adds a darker shade later. You can leave highlights like glitter in the eyes, hair, and white lips when you draw on paper or draw later when you draw digitally.

In some cases, the darker shades darken areas, usually far away from the light.

In this case, more shadows will be found in the following areas:

  • Tiny shadows around the eyelid
  • Shadows on the upper parts of the eyes (eyelashes)
  • A slight shadow on one side of the nose
  • Shadows near different hair groups (usually down)
  • The big shadow on the neck is made of the head and hair.

Conclusion

For anime, characters who look older draw longer faces and smaller eyes than you would for younger ones. If you look at a few pictures of real people, children usually have a round face and big eyes (about their head) than adults.
