How to Draw Manga Bodies

If you look to the top fifty you will see that the first two top looked at lessons are on anime body figures for both genders. I will be submitting another lesson that is similar to the ones you see to the right hand side of your screen. I think that the poses I drew a while ago are great, but in all honesty I can draw better than before since I practice everyday. I want to give you a tutorial lesson on “how to draw manga bodies step by step”. Whenever you learn "how to draw manga art", you can use all different types of body poses that can actually show what your character is thinking. You can combine this lesson with the anime male body figures that I already have submitted, and draw a manga couple if you want to as well. No matter how you look at it, drawing anime and manga is so much fun and it can also become pretty addicting. The figures that you will learn how to draw are more on the slender side which is exactly how manga should be drawn. Unless of course you are going for a more thicker character or something like that. I will also be submitting two more lessons on body figures and I think that those tutorials will come in extremely helpful for a lot of you artists out there that are trying to master the art of drawing bodies. I will leave you now so you can tackle this tutorial that will teach you “how to draw manga bodies step by step”. As always I will be back later with more drawing fun. Adios amigos and happy drawing!

how to draw manga bodies step 1

STEP 1.

There is three different body positions that you will be drawing today. You can choose to draw all three, or you can pick one out of the bunch. Start with three circle shapes for your manga bodies that you will be drawing and add the facial guidelines. Next draw the torso shapes for all poses you see here. Once that is done you will then draw a connecting line that comes from the torso, to the hips or pelvic area that you will draw next. Lastly draw all the limb guidelines as well as the shapes for the hands and feet.
