Draw Anime Clothes and Manga – This tutorial focuses on the basics of drawing some of the most common types of clothing in anime and fictional styles. Examples are women’s clothing, but tips can also be used to design men’s clothing.

Anime Costumes

Before you start painting a dress, it can be beneficial to read some pictures of real clothes to get a general idea of ​​the designs and that different parts such as buttons and buttons are often found there.

Anime and manga characters are portrayed wearing different types of clothing hundreds and even thousands of times, so their costumes are often painted in a simplified way. The essential elements of each piece are displayed while small details such as small folds are left out.

How to Get Started Drawing Anime Clothes

If you are a beginner, start by drawing a rough sketch of the shape before drawing clothes (assuming the clothes you are attracting are worn).

Drawing Anime Leather Jacket

To design an anime-style leather jacket on the body, start by drawing its entire shape and main features, such as the zipper and column line.

The skin is firm, and even a tight coat will hide the body shape. The shoulder areas where the sleeves are sewn on the jacket will come out “pointy” while the chest area will be immersed. Draw accordingly.

In this example, the main bars will be on the shoulder (the slightly raised arm) and inside the elbow (the component is bent). There will also be a light curve at the level of the upper abdomen because the body is slightly bent on one side.

Draw simple wrap and small pieces like zip details and packs after drawing extensive features.

Drawing Anime Jeans

If you have done body painting as suggested earlier, you only need to show the top and bottom of the jeans to get their overall shape. Tight jeans will be almost exactly the shape of the legs. The only exception, in this case, is the bottom of the jeans because it is folded at the top. Draw tucked sections away from the shape of the legs.

Drawing Tight Anime Jeans

Wrap in tight jeans will usually be on the sides of the knees and very high between the legs. Draw some of those places.

Drawing an Anime Shirt

Design an anime shirt (school uniform or other) and start by drawing the shirt’s shape and its main features. Because shirts are usually made of thin and soft materials, the body shape will be more noticeable than the jacket.

Drawing an Anime Shirt

Suppose the shirt is tight and has short sleeves; as in the example, you only need to draw a few edges. Draw another wrap below and above the chest. In this example, a single fold goes into the abdomen to show that the shirt is slightly extended towards one side due to the light curve on the body. You can also draw other folders in the upper abdomen for the same reason.

Drawing Anime Skirt

I am designing an anime school uniform skirt to start again by drawing the whole scene. Next, draw straight lines to show the size of the fold. It is important to note that curling in this particular design will be similar to teeth pointing in one direction but turning slightly around.

In this example, the bars’ inner side is not visible as it moves from left to image to the right.

To draw a jersey in anime style, start by drawing a picture of it all.

Sweaters and sweatshirts are usually made of soft but thick material and tend to have pockets, thus having more curling curves.

Drawing an Anime Jersey

Start by drawing the perfect shape of a jersey or sweatshirt with a frame of ample curves and folders. Baggy clothes will tend to move down and collect down. Keep this in mind when drawing.

Drawing Anime Sweat Pants

Draw sweat anime pants and start by drawing the overall shape.

Drawing Anime Pants

There will be minimal folding in sweatpants with hanging pockets, as in the example. The only major drawback in this example will be the knee of the front leg as the pants will depend slightly on it, causing some tension.
