Here's a breakdown of how to draw an anime half-face: 1. Basic Shapes Circle: Start with a circle for the head. Guideline: Draw a vertical line down the center of the circle. This will help with symmetry. 2. Facial Features Eye: Shape: Draw a large almond shape for the eye. Iris & Pupil: Add a smaller circle inside for the iris, and a dot within for the pupil. Highlights: Add a small white circle to the top of the iris for a sparkle. Nose: Simple: A small, angled line can represent the bridge of the nose. Detailed: For a more detailed nose, draw a small triangle or a curved line. Mouth: Shape: Draw a curved line for the mouth. Expression: Adjust the curve to convey different emotions (smile, frown, pout). 3. Hair Part: Decide where the hair part will be (usually on the side). Shape: Draw the hair flowing from the part, considering the character's style (short, long, spiky, etc.). Details: Add strands or flyaways for a more dynamic look. 4. Finishing Touches Refine Shapes: Smooth out any rough edges and refine the shapes of the facial features. Shading: Use shading to add depth and dimension to the hair, eyes, and other areas. Details: Add any extra details like earrings, freckles, or a blush. Tips for Anime Style: Large Eyes: Anime is known for its expressive eyes. Make them relatively large compared to the head. Exaggerated Features: Feel free to exaggerate features like the size of the eyes, the length of the hair, or the shape of the mouth to create a unique character. Dynamic Lines: Use flowing, dynamic lines for the hair and other elements to add energy and movement.
