Manga artistic execution can be a wonderful skill if you master it. It's simple, easy, and with practice it can become a skill that can help you in many ways. For example, when doing projects (at school), designing clothes and many other things. One of the most satisfying things is bringing your character to life and personalizing it with clothing and other items. Read on to find out how to do this.

Steps

1. 1 Start with a basic frame, the lines that define the bones of the person, and the points that define the ligaments. For example, buy a model doll in a store or look in the mirror. It is very important to make the pose realistic, but start with something basic, with the person standing with their hands behind their back. Draw a large circle for the hips, connected to the legs.
2. 2 Draw an oval / egg shape for the head.
3. 3 Add a little pulp. Draw circles / ovals around your lines, again making sure everything is realistic. If you are a man, then start by drawing men, if you are a woman, then start by drawing women. Start based on your gender and before you start drawing any male / female character, get to know the male / female body better. Make larger circles out of the dots, for example around the knees (this will eventually form the patella).
4. 4 Smooth out the lines and add the waist. Women have a thinner waist, while men are less defined. Add lines for the neck and make triangular shapes for the legs. Erase all the lines of the original skeleton, leaving only the frame.
5. 5 Add clothes and decorations. In fact, you can draw any clothes, but the folds are an important part. They make it look more realistic (again, this is a very important word). However, start with basic items, a robe or something similar. If you need help, take a cloth and hang it in the same way.Gravity also acts on the fabric, so make sure everything falls off properly.
6. 6 Buy a cheap visual art diary and do one drawing every day. You will soon see the difference.
