How to Draw Gin Ichimaru
So far today I showed you how to draw a cannon and the zodiac sign Taurus. With this next tutorial I wanted to do another character from the anime Bleach series that was cool and powerful. So, with this tutorial you will learn "how to draw Gin" Ichimaru from Bleach step by step. Now for those of you that love this manga anime series and are avid followers of the show, you already know that he starts out being the captain of the 3rd Division in the Gotei 13. Once he betrays Soul Society he becomes a commanding officer of Sosuke Aizen’s arrancer army. He is described as being very aggressive; dominate, fearless, strong, resentful, and very inhuman. His facial expression is always affixed with a grin and his eyes are long, slanted, and squinty. Captain Gin Ichimaru is also sometimes referred to as being a fox because he is sly and sneaky like one, and because he resembles a fox as well. Gin made his first big time role appearance at the gates leading into the Seireitei, when Jidanbō' was defeated by Ichigo Kurosaki. I have been getting more into the Bleach series and with each episode I fall deeper in the show. One of my favorite characters from the show is Grimmjow Jeagerjaques. He is the character that has the light blue spiky hair, on the right side of his face his jaw is covered by a hallow bone which looks like skin tissue hanging from his face exposing his jaw. He also has big blue eyes and a look to kill. In the sketch I did of Captain Gin Ichimaru I wanted him to look like he was in his prime looking calm, cool, and collective. His features also include white hair, and a long black and white suit. He comes from the Soul Reaper species and all Soul Reapers possess a zanpakutō which is a "soul-cutting sword". Now Soul Reapers are departed human souls that have gained supernatural powers. Captain Gin Ichimaru belongs to this species and because of that it makes him very confident with himself. I had a lot of fun drawing this Bleach character and because of that I am more than happy to share my work with all of you other Bleach fans. This drawing lesson will show you how easy it is to learn "how to draw Ichimaru" from Bleach step by step. I will be back with more drawing fin in a bit so stay tuned y’all.

STEP 1.
Okay are you ready top tackle this lesson or what? That is what I like to hear, an eager response. Start this step by drawing out the small circle shape for his head and then add the facial guidelines. You will then add the line for his neck and then the round shape of his torso. From the Torso shape you will then add the guidelines for his limbs like the arms, shoulders, and legs.
STEP 2.
Now in this next step you will add the lining of his jaw and the back of his head and then add the shape of his squinted eyes. Once that is done you will then start sketching out the shaping of his shirt sleeves and then his long flowing skirt like pants. Once that is complete you can proceed onto the next step.
STEP 3.
Now that you have made it to step three, you are officially half way done with this drawing tutorial. What you will tackle on this step is the sketching of his hair style as shown. The ends of his hair are pointed and jagged so make that known in your sketch. Once you have done that you can continue to sketch out his outfit which has a lot of wrinkle and crease lines. Once that is complete you will draw out the shape of his arm and hand.
STEP 4.
In this step here you will start sketching out the detailing in his hair and neck. You will then finish the shaping of his right arm and hand. Once you have done that you can start detailing the rest of his outfit by adding more creases and wrinkles. Add a ribbon around his waist and then three diamond shaped holes.
STEP 5.
Welcome to your last drawing step and I know you did a good job. Now that you are here all you have to do is add some final touches on his outfit. Start erasing all the guidelines and shapes that you drew in step one and then proceed onto the next step.
STEP 6.
Ta da! this is what your sketch should look like when you are done. All you have to do is color him in. Well you have just completed this tutorial on how to draw Gin Ichimaru from Bleach step by step. I will be back in a while with more drawing fun.Comments: Post Comment
