DRAWING MANGA BOYS
Punk styles are familiar to manga readers, and this is a good example of a striking
cut that can make a character stand out from the crowd. The Mohawk is derived
from Native Americans, but has become a fashion classic with the alternative youth
cultures of the last few decades.MOh Awk
Draw a basic head with
eyes, nose, mouth, and
an ear. Start with a center
line, then draw a series
of upright lines from the
middle of the hairline.Create the profile of
the Mohawk from the
top of the uprights to
the back of the head.Add groups of three
lines, working back
along the center line.
Note that the lines get
shorter as you near
the back of the head.Ink the part, and then ink
around the spiky profile
of the hair and bangs.Finally use two shades
of green to color your
hairstyle. Use a paler
color in between the
inked uprights, and a
darker shade for the
front of the Mohawk to
give it width.
