How to draw : Shadow from Sonic the Hedgehog

     Hey, it's me and I am posting tutorial (finally).Before we get started I drew a head to head Shadow vs Sonic.I was wondering if you would like to try drawing Sonic battling Shadow, for everyone to see up here on Mystic Art?

Step 1 : Draw a circle and add facail lines , very lightly.

Step 2 : Draw the shape of the eyeball and the "angry" eyelid by curving it up then down. Add the forehead slightly away from the circle.

Step 3 : Add the pupil close to the forehead.

Step 4 : Add ears curving forward.The one on the opposite side of the head smaller than the side of the head you are looking at.

Step 5 : Add the nose and cheeks by drawing a shape that looks like the bottom of a shoe , below the Shadow's eye.

Step 6 : Draw in the mouth(slightly open) and add a tension line above the eye but below the ear.

Step 7 : Draw in the hedgehog hair onto Shadow and make them get smaller as they go below the chin.  Make them curve closer to the chin as it gets lower down.

Step 8 : Add areas onto the hair , on the edges.

Step 9 : Add the shoulder by drawing an oval a.Than draw a line that indicates the neck from the closed part of his mouth and down.Then just draw a slightly puffed up chest with some fur on it.

Step 10 : Add the inside of the ear on the side of the face you are looking at.

Step 11 : Erase the top part of the shoulder.

Step 12 : Now to finish the shoulder. Make the line closest to the hair curve up and make Shadow look slightly hunched.

Step 13 : Make the hair go behind the finished shoulder and draw in the neck.

Step 14 : Now just colour in the hair edges making them darker and you just drew a Shadow!!!!

ENJOY!!!!!!!!!

My newest artwork

I am really sorry that I have not posted in a while. I will post a tutorial around Christmas.

Repost of Zimba

Dressing up

Here is a simple animal character based on a cartoon way of drawing a hamster.

As you see the pictures show different ways of expressing what the character is feeling or doing.

Boda is a levitating monk and Zimba is a starving field worker.

Facial Lines

Facial lines are crucial to drawing a ...face.

They show where the character is looking and sometimes helps draw wrinkles in old people and giving human like features to animals.!

Here is a good examples.

Would you like me do do a tutorial on this?

Sorry I have not posted in a long time since I was busy this week and was wondering if you want a tutorial on this picture.

Please comment yes , no or next time and if I don't get a result then I will post the tutorial anyway.

This drawing will need only the basic pencil and eraser (fine liner optional).

Thank you

Tools you need to draw.

When you draw always use a well sharpened pencil and NEVER press hard.
Sometimes I will write if you need a marker or something but mostly just have :

Pencil, Eraser (not any strong led marks should be on it), draft or sketch paper and a fine liner.

Injoy!

I will be posting a tutorial VERY soon!
