How to Draw Kaneki
- Draw the base.
Depict the main parts of the body in the form of figures of various shapes. Use a vertical line to mark the central axis of the body.
- Sketch out the limbs.
Use straight lines to mark the position of the arms and legs. Mark the places of the folds in the form of large dots.
- Detail the head.
Make a clear oval of the face and with the help of smooth lines draw the spiky strands of the hair on the head.
- Add the elements of the face and neck.
Continue detailing the head and in this step draw the eyes, eyebrows, nose, and mouth. Draw the high collar.
- Depict the top of the clothes.
Continue drawing the combat clothes and in this step draw the outline of the upper part of the suit. Add curly elements below the neck.
- Draw one hand.
As a guide, use the guidelines and draw the upper short sleeve. Add the lower sleeve that hugs the arm tightly.
- Sketch out the hand.
This step will require your attention, as you must correctly depict the position of the fingers. Here the hand hangs freely down and the fingers are clenched into the fist.
- Add the second hand.
This step is similar to the previous one. Here you have to draw two sleeves of different lengths and at the bottom you need to add the visible part of the second hand.
- Depict the shorts.
Focus on the auxiliary lines and draw tight shorts to the knees. Add the small crease to the fabric.
- Draw one leg.
Sketch out the lower part of the leg, giving it the desired anatomical shape. Draw the foot at the bottom.
- Sketch out the second leg.
Repeat the previous step and draw the other leg in the same way, taking into account all the features of the structure. At the bottom, draw the foot that is turned to the other side.
- Detail the clothes.
Draw the cross folds on the cuffs and at the bottom of the legs. Draw zigzag lines on the shorts and add many shaped lines on the top of the suit.
- Correct inaccuracies.
Now the main contours are ready, and you can evaluate the result of the work. If you notice mistakes, then correct them and carefully remove the extra lines.
- Color the drawing.
Color the skin with a light beige color and color the hair with a light gray color. For coloring the clothes, you will need black and dark gray.
