How To Draw a Girl

Step 1.


Step one: the head. This is probably one of the most difficult parts, because it is so hard to make cymmetrical, but once you get used to it it's a lot easier. So add the ears, and you're ready for step two.

Step 2.


Step two: the hair. This is one of my very favorite parts. Just decide which direction you want the hair to go, and then just draw it. You can always do it differently, and if you want it curly, there are more... MANY more... tutorials on that. Just    

Step 3.


Step three: now we draw in the neckline of the shirt, which in this case, is a Japanese-y shirt with a v-neck. Make sure, when coloring in the black parts of the fabric, to color in the SAME DIRECTION as the fabric. Such as, on the shorter part of th   

Step 4.


Step four: time to put in our pants! That sounded odd. Let's put it this way: time to draw the pants on the model. There, that's better. (: also, we are going to work on the left arm, in the drawing the right. Just draw the straight line up to the "w   

Step 5.


Step six: let's add some detail to those trousers of hers! Just color in the pants in the same way as the neckline and the sleeves. This is called "hatching," or at least that is the name that i learned. It's not very difficult! But if you want to ma

Description: Well, here is my first tutorial on how to draw a girl. Not my best drawing, but definitely a favorite. It is so hard to find a good tutorial anywhere on how to draw just a plain person! I like to work from the head down, starting with the hair, but i like to save the facial details for the last step. Remember, i'm no pro and i definitely cannot draw very good faces. So as my first tutorial, i am using my friend Brit as a model. Honestly, this picture does her no justice! But alas, this is all it is and i hope you enjoy it!
