Description: Have you ever wondered why some anime girls look almost too curvy for their stature? Well, I can answer that question easily because it is something I do in some of my female anime drawings. These drawing techniques are done to accentuate or exaggerate the anime female body. To show you in detail how this can be done, I will teach you "how to sketch anime girls" in an exaggerated style. Anime girls that are drawn or sketched in this manor are usually used to create a more recognizable figure. Some manga use this drawing technique whenever a character is supposed to stand out from the rest, or more noticeable. I love sketching manga and anime because adding my own personal tweaks makes my sketches so much more original and thinking of what to do next keeps me flowing with creative juices. Sketching anime girls is no different than drawing them. As I mentioned before with the differences between sketched drawings and regular drawings; a sketch carries more definition, detail, and textures that a regular drawing does not. No matter which way you want to sketch your anime girl, you can be sure that it will be your own. This tutorial also includes some examples, tips, and explanations on the creation of a sketched anime girl. I think you will find that drawing in this style is a lot more challenging because there is a lot of shading involved. I guess that just about does it for now or for this tutorial description at least. I will leave you to this submission because if you are a big anime or manga lover, you are going to have a blast teaching yourself "how to sketch anime girls". If there is something that you would love to see a sketch on, just let me know and I will fill your requests. Adios people, and make sure you upload your finished works to the site so everyone can see how you did.
