How to Draw Anime Profiles

1

This is a simple tip step that shows you the straight on stare point with the anime profile face when being viewed from the side. As you can see the eyes are perfectly horizontal, and the angle of the nose is almost perfectly vertical.

2

This is just some sketches of the male and female anime versions of side face profiles. Each face in the sketch has a different expression and as you can see each expression looks different from the side.

3

Start the first drawing step by making two circles for the heads, and then draw out the cone like shapes of the lower parts of the face profiles.

4

You will notice here how I talk about how the the alignment is perfect with on another.

5

Begin sketching out the lower portions of the face which is the side profile of the arch in the nose, the bumps for the lips, and then the shapes or outlines for the chin, and jaw lines. Don't forget to get those ears sketched out as well.

6

Begin sketching out or drawing in the eyes, and mouths. All you have to do for the mouths is draw a thin line. The female face has much thicker lashes or eye lids than the male. Also, add some small detailing to the nostrils and inside of the males e   

7

Sketch out the male's eyebrows and then color in some pupils for both profiles. You will then draw the necks and then move to step eight.

8

All you need to do here is sketch out their hairstyles and you can choose to draw in any type of style you wish. Erase the guidelines and shapes to clean up the drawing and then move to see what your anime profiles should look like.

9

Here they are, all done and ready to be used or colored in. I will be back in a bit and great job everyone for sticking with this tutorial and learning something new.
