Description: members that I am friends with on here about this particular drawing but never found the time to finish the final touch ups until now. This character is from a video game and she is a female warrior. Today I will be showing you all how to draw Nariko from Heavenly Sword. This fiery red head is a battling queen. I personally think this character is pretty awesome. She has wicked cool powerful moves when she attacks with her massive sword. I first heard about Heavenly Sword through a commercial I saw when the Playstation3 came out. My mom and I were watching TV one day and seen her falling from the sky and jumping on top of a warrior’s head. She stabbed him with the most powerful form of her sword called the Power Stance. And then she proceeds to fight with her second form of sword called the Speed Stance. At the near end (my most favorite attacking sword) she uses her last sword form called the Range Stance. This form is wicked cool. Her swords are attached by a chain and can make long-distance and fast attacks. The downside part is that it gives off a weak attack. The most powerful is the Power Stance. The balanced form is the Speed Stance. I used the Speed Stance in the image because it’s the default sword mode. I’m very proud on how the image came out to be. The coloring consumed a lot of my time. I drew her almost a month ago and today I apparently had some time to finish her off. I know most of you have been waiting for the finished Nariko, so here she is! I made a suitable background as well so it would make her pose stand out more. Well I guess this is all I have to say about the image. I’m also sorry I haven’t been on Dragoart a lot. I’ve been working on tons and tons of work lately. When I have some free time I can guarantee that I’ll be on and talking to everyone. It has been like three weeks I haven’t been active. Everyday I have to make three tutorials and working with my mom and dad to make the site look better. So yeah, peace out people and I hope you enjoy this tutorial on how to draw Nariko from Heavenly Sword.
