How to Draw a Magician
1
Start with the shape of the head and then draw out the outline of the body which should tapper off at the bottom. Once that is done you can draw out the guides for the arm, and then for the neck and face.
2
Now that you have the mannequin drawn out for this magician, you can begin sketching out the face shape and structure. Notice how the forehead is a bit large, and then the chin tappers as well. Draw in the eye lids, as well as the hair line.
3
Draw out the eyebrows, and then sketch in the shapes of his eyes, bottom eyelids, and then draw in the eyeballs. As you can see his nose is long and broad. The expression on his face is blase. Don't forget to draw in the mouth too.
4
Okay everyone, begin sketching out his hairstyle, and then draw out the ear. Add some detailing inside of the ear, and then draw out the neck and then add the pointed tips on the ends of his hairstyle.
5
Draw out the shoulders, and then draw the beginning lines of the arms. When you are done draw in his magician's bow tie, and then sketch in his chest.
6
Draw the arm and then his sleeve, and then draw the ends of the cuff. You will then draw out the opening for his tuxedo, and then draw the jacket collar that flows down the jacket. Add detailing like crease and fold lines.
7
Here you will draw out the hand, and then draw the fingers. Draw the lid for the hat and then draw out the rabbit's head that is peeking through the top.
8
Draw the sleeve for the other arm, and then draw out the long bottom part of the hat shape and don't forget the band. Draw out and color in the eyeball on the rabbit.
9
For the last step guys all you need to do is draw out the other hand, fingers, and then draw in the wand that he is holding. When you are done add last minute detailing. Erase the lines and shapes that you drew in step one.
10
Now here is what the drawing of your new magician looks like when you are all done. Color him in, and you are officially all done. Unless of course you want to color him in.

Description: I don’t know how many people would want to learn how to draw a magician, but just in case there is someone out there that has a hobby or want to one day becomes one of these magical illusionists, I wanted to be sure that I put something up for everyone. I wanted to go with what folks expect to see when it comes to visualizing what these men and woman look like. Of course I had to go ahead and make my magician look sort of like an anime figure, and I know that this type of concept isn’t all that traditional, but I figured since almost everyone that comes to Dragoart like anime/manga anyway, why not go with the flow. Nonetheless it should be an entertaining tutorial to follow I mean the magician has his wand, top hat, and there is even a rabbit peeking through too. You can tweak this magician if you want and add your own personal touches, or you can just leave it be and do follow what you see. Either way learning "how to draw a magician" is not only different, it’s also fun. Have a great time with the tutorial guys, and if there is something, or someone you would like to see drawn out step by step style, don’t forget to ask. See ya folks!
