Outline the jaw for your character. Draw a line from the side of the circle that's slightly angled toward the vertical centerline. Continue drawing the line until you reach the mark you made for the nose. Once the angled line crosses the nose guideline, continue drawing it toward the mark you made for the chin.

A “striped” anime blush is made with just a few line strokes and is fairly easy to draw. Simply make two sets of angled lines around the cheek areas. For a nicer looking blush make the outer stripes a bit shorter and the inner stripes a bit longer. Aim for a combined shape that can fit inside a stretched oval.

To do this by draw a horizontal line through the middle of the face and draw the eyes below that line. Space the eyes so that you can fit another eye between them.
Draw the ears pretty much as you would with most other anime styles. Draw the top of the ears to align with the top of the eyes and the bottom of the ears to align with the bottom of the nose.
Be sure to make light lines for the initial stages of the drawing so that you can easily erase parts of them later. The lines in the examples are dark simply so that you can see them. You can go over your drawing with darker lines after you are sure everything is in the right place and after you erase all o the guide lines and parts of the face that will be hidden by the hair.
Position the nose as you would for a traditional looking anime character with the bottom of the nose being between the chin and the horizontal halfway point through the face. (again same as other tutorials here on AnimeOutline).
Realistic anime head drawing. Anime characters generally have fairly round faces. The bottom portion of an anime face is commonly drawn with two major sets of lines, one going down from the top of the head to around the mouth area and one more from there to the chin.
To better understand how to draw the hair it can also be very helpful to think of it as being split into tree parts (as shown in the example above): 1 Red – Front Hair 2 Green – Side Hair 3 Blue – Back/Top Hair
Position the mouth with the bottom lip halfway between the bottom of the nose and the bottom of the chin.
Keep that in mind when drawing features. Female chins and noses are drawn with carefully rounded lines, while male counterparts are drawn with harsher more prominent angles. This is of course not always the case, but keep this in mind so that you can manipulate your drawing to whatever you see fit.
Drawing a pretty stylized face is difficult mainly because very small changes create large visual results. This means we must set our expectations wisely, and get ready for small adjustments and corrections as we try to perfect a drawing of an anime girl face. Study by Gvaat.
Although Anime usually refers to animated, and Manga usually refers to drawn (printed) art , the general style and approach to drawing is the same.
The most notable are the eyes . The eyes usually appear larger. Eyebrows appear smaller than their average counterparts in real life. (For a super detailed look at how to draw Anime eyes, check this tutorial ). So do the noses, and mouths. (I have a tutorial on drawing lips and mouths in Anime style as well, you can find it here .)
Drawing hair is difficult. Here are some tips on drawing hair for your Anime girl face drawing:
Trust me when I tell you that all, yes all great Manga artists know how to draw a realistic human head. What’s more, they know how to draw it really, really well. Do not skip learning anatomy and construction of the face and try not to dive right into drawing in the Anime style, before understanding the basics of construction.
To achieve this, try to put down confident pencil strokes that come from the shoulder and the elbow, and less so from the wrist .
The basic anatomy of an anime face starts with a circle with a vertical line and horizontal line directly through the center.
While artists have varying preferences about how to structure an anime character’s head and face, they all start with the same basic principle: First draw a circle, and then draw a horizontal line and vertical line directly ...
Start by sketching a curved upper eyelid, then draw a short line extending down from the outer corner of the eye. Leave the inner corner of the eye open for a softer look. Then, add a circle in the middle of the eye as the iris. Draw a smaller circle—the pupil—in the middle of the iris.
When drawing anime characters, the eyes are typically a focal point, while the nose and mouth remain simple.
The legs of an anime character should be approximately as long as the top half of the character, from the top of the head to the waist. Finally, add in the arms. A good rule of thumb is to align the elbow with the character’s waist, and then extend the rest of the arm (including the hand) to about mid-thigh.
Leave the inner corner of the eye open for a softer look. Then, add a circle in the middle of the eye as the iris. Draw a smaller circle—the pupil—in the middle of the iris. To create primary and secondary light reflections, add in one or two additional circles within the iris.
While you will mostly ink with a black pen, it can also be helpful to have a white jelly pen on hand—you can use this to add highlights, like the reflection points in the character’s eyes. You may also choose to add additional colors with colored pencils or medium of your choice.
Start your drawing by first drawing the overall shape of the head. The top of the head will be close to a circle in the front view and close to an oval in the side view .
Anime characters often tend to have their eyes drawn below the horizontal halfway point in the face but for drawing an older man like the one in this tutorial you can place the eyes almost like you would if drawing real people.
Before drawing the eyebrows what you first need to do is estimate where the characters hairline should be (slightly down from the top of the head) and going down from the hairline divide the face into three evenly proportioned parts. Draw the eyebrows on the line that is the next one down from the hairline.
Younger anime characters often tend to have very “sharp” chins but in this case draw a wider chi n to make the character look older.
Draw the nose with the tip close to the bottom line of the middle division.
Draw the eyebrows on the line that is the next one down from the hairline.
At this point you can clean up your drawing and remove any guide lines you created in earlier steps and in the smaller details like the wrinkles around the eyebrows and under the eyes.
When you’re learning how to draw anime lips, eyebrows, or other specific facial features, it’s helpful to have focused instruction—and noses are no exception! In this course, Skillshare instructor Leon F. Andersen teaches you how to draw noses with varying degrees of detail .
Add clothing to your anime drawing to give your character personality .

To draw a female face in anime or manga, start by drawing a circle for the forehead and a straight line from the top of the circle to where the chin will be. Next, sketch the chin and cheeks, making sure that the lines change direction but that the curves are subtle. Draw lines as a guide for the size of eyes and ears, then sketch the details of the features. Finally, add lines for hair, use a smaller tipped tool to add more detail to the face, remove the sketch marks to create a neater outline, and add the base color of your work. To learn how to draw a male face or a young girl, read on!
If you want to draw your favorite character or design one on your own, start by designing their head and face so you can sketch what they look like. When you first start the head, draw the outline and the basic shapes so you can properly place the features. Once you add the eyes, nose, ears, and mouth, you can erase your guidelines and sketch in a hairstyle. With a bit of practice and patience, you’ll be able to design anime faces in no time!
Female anime and manga characters tend to have rounder faces and pointier chins than male characters. Use curved lines rather than angled ones if you plan on drawing a female character.
Anime and manga characters can have a variety of hairstyles, so choose one that you think will look best on your character. Avoid drawing every single strand of hair and instead sketch the basic shape of the style onto your character. Work lightly in pencil so you can erase and make changes if you need to. Once you have a roughed-in shape for the hairstyle, erase any parts of the head that the hair covers so it’s not visible.
Anime or manga hair is usually broken up into clumps that end in a point. Look at hairstyles of various characters to get ideas of how to style your character’s hair.
For a female character, place the lines for the neck closer to the chin so it’s narrower. Make straight vertical lines extending from the jaw on each side of the face to make the neck. Younger manga or anime characters will have a narrow neck since they aren’t as muscular or defined.
If you’re drawing a female character, place the mark at a distance equal to ⅓ of the circle’s diameter since female anime and manga characters tend to have rounder faces.
