I have such a busy day ahead of me so I’m going to try and get these tutorials up fast for you all. To start things off, this submission is going to teach you "how to draw Terra", step by step. He is one of the main protagonists in the newest version of Kingdom Hearts called ‘Birth by Sleep’. Terra is a Keyblade apprentice and eventually he wants to become a Master. I’m not sure as to what his story is, but I’m sure it’s pretty sweet. I have been out of the whole gaming thing, so I’m really backed up on all my bio information and who’s who and what’s what. I can tell you that Terra is Riku’s successor, and this means that one day Riku will have to weld the Keyblade for Terra when he’s ready. Like all Kingdom Hearts characters, Terra is going to be a tricky game figure to draw because he has a lot of detailing and definition going on. If you follow the steps and take your time I’m sure that you will do a great job at replicating the drawing in front of you. I always have fun drawing Kingdom Hearts characters, and even though there is a handful of new names and face from Birth by Sleep, they too will be a fun challenge when the day comes that I draw them out. That’s it for now but I will return with more information on this character from the Kingdom Hearts game. For now enjoy learning "how to draw Terra", and meet me back here in a bit to see what else I have in store for all of you.

STEP 1.

Lets get the mannequin drawn in for Terra. Start with a head that seems to be floating in mid air, and then draw out another shape for his torso. You will then draw the bottom half of the body, and then add two arms.

STEP 2.

Before you start sketching out his parted hairstyle, you will need to draw out his heart shaped face like so. Be sure that the chin tappers off like the bottom of a heart. When that is done draw in his parted bangs, and detail them as well.

STEP 3.

Terra has hair on the top that looks sort of like a spiked Mohawk. Sketch this part of his hair out, and then begin sketching out the eyebrows, eyes, nose and mouth. When drawing the eyes, be sure to do so in an anime or manga style.

Sketch in his neck, and then begin drawing out the upper body or torso starting with the shoulders. Next, draw in the right shoulder plate that he wears, and then shape out the body preparing it for his arms.

STEP 6.

Almost done with Terra already. Draw the straps that cross over his torso, and then draw in or sketch out the sash around his waist making sure to add the tied knot in the front that hangs past the hips. Detail and draw in the marking on the side of his chest as well.

STEP 8.

For the last drawing step all you have to do is draw out the bottom half of Terra's body. This is in the form of a kimono of some sorts. Draw in the lines for the design of the clothes, and then begin erasing the shapes and guides you drew in step one.
