When learning to draw anime for beginners, there are a couple of options for how to draw the hair. Some artists opt to use dramatic, angular styles, while others prefer a more flowy, free-form style.

Generally you can show socks on the legs with pretty much just a pair of curves a bit below the knees. You can also add a second curve below that one (with a slightly lighter line if possible) to show the cuffs.
The “thighs high” stockings are very common in both anime and manga (probably more so than in real life). Drawing them is not that much different from the socks.
This last examples is the simplest. As tights pretty much just hug the legs and go all the way up to the waist there is really no line drawing needed to show them, at least when the person wearing them is properly dressed. Instead you can show that they are being worn simply by coloring the legs whichever color you want the tights to have.
This tutorial shows a few basic examples of socks, stockings and tights in the anime and manga style and provides some tips on drawing them. As the examples are done in a fairly realistic style a lot of the explanations (such as how things change based on the “eye level”) can also apply to drawing in general.
To draw an anime body, start by drawing a stick figure with small circles at the joints and triangles for the hands and feet. Then, draw the head, neck, and torso with a waistline on top of the stick figure outline. Finish the body by drawing the limbs, using the joints to guide you.
Once you reach the point where the body is it’s narrowest, put circles inside the tubes you’re drawing for the arms to mark the elbows. Continue extending the tubes down to the bottom of the hourglass and sketch small circles for the wrists. Draw mitten shapes for the hands attached to the ends of the arms.
1. Make an oval with a pointed bottom near the top of your paper for the head. Place the oval in the top middle of your paper so you have enough room to add hair later on. Draw angled lines down from either side of the oval that extend down to form the jaw line.
1. Draw a head at the top of your paper. Place a circle near the top center of the page so there’s enough room to add hair later on. Put the point of the chin slightly outside the bottom edge of the circle since the jaw will come lower down.
Sketch an hourglass shape with 2 circles in it for the torso. Draw the top line of the hourglass shape slightly below the chin to form the shoulders. Draw curved lines going toward the center line, and flare out the bottom of the hourglass shape so it’s slightly wider than the shoulders for the hips.
1. After you've drawn in the head, you're going to want to draw in the neck. In anime women, the neck is usually slightly narrower then the head. For this step, draw two very slightly curved lines coming down off the head.
Note that the technique for drawing the arms and the legs is roughly similar for both. Draw the thighs. For the thighs on the legs, begin to slant in until they aren't wide. Don't be afraid of how long or short the legs are; just try not to make them too long or short. You want them to in proportion to the body.
1. Once you've drawn the shoulders and neck, it's time to draw the torso. Leave about a centimetre down from the shoulders (enough room for the arms to start nicely at least) and draw two slightly curved lines coming in. This will be the top of the torso.
There are many different ways to draw female eyes, but in general they tend to be softer. For this tutorial, draw an arc. Draw an oval attached to the top of this arc and a line underneath for the bottom of the eye. Draw another oval inside of the previous one and a little circle in it for sparkle. Shade in the second oval and draw in a little line for the eyelid and lines for the eyebrows.
Simply draw one line down the center and then two lines through the middle of the face, leaving a gap between these two lines big enough to draw in the eyes. The nose will go just under these lines and the mouth beneath the nose. The ears should go on either side of the head, in between these lines.

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.
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.
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.
