There are several ways to draw a manga face you will ultimately be happy with. Mostly because the manga face is the most important part of this type of drawing.

For starters, it’s best to configure drawing tools before you begin the creative process. To avoid shaky lines it is necessary to adjust the pressure threshold to about 60%. The result will be stable lines.

It’s time to decide in which direction the character will be facing. If you are treating the head as a 3D shape, draw a horizontal line that follows the surface. When drawing a line, make sure your head is facing left or right, up or down. If you want to correct the direction of the head, draw an arrow pointing upwards. Once you have determined the key location of the face, you can move on to painting and sketching in the area of ​​the mouth, chin, eyebrows, and centerline of the face. Use a painting approach with a large brush of 60 to 80% to sketch the head.

When drawing a face, it is important to pay attention to the outlines of the face. When depicting emotions, aspects within the face should be singled out. Is your mouth open? Are your eyes narrowed? All this should be kept in mind while drawing the initial sketch. Continue with the draw forms, and when taking head measurements make sure you don’t make mistakes. Use a swimming cap for the corners of the head, because drawing a cap can determine the angle of the head.

Always use shadow and light on the nose because it is the shadow that can highlight the shape of the nose. Don’t overdo it with your eyes, try to keep them as simple as possible. When painting eyes, use flat color. When drawing the eyes, paint the entire iris in a flat color. It is not necessary to draw every strand of hair, instead, it is better to start with shapes or groups. Start with large shapes after which you can add individual strands.
