DRAWING MANGA GIRLS


This style is for a modern girl with a fast-paced lifestyle, who needs a manageable,
neat hairstyle that takes little maintenance. It is brushed forward around and
under the ears, and has side-swept, full bangs. The bright red color makes it a very
noticeable cut, but it would be easy to tone it down for a more reserved character.

Draw a basic head,
with eyes, nose,
mouth, and one ear.
Create a large profile
from the left eye over
to the ear.


Now work long, spiky
bangs across the face.
Then add hair to the back
of the head and down
below the ear. Add a
couple of spikes at this
same length on the left.

Create broad, spiky
highlights across the
top of the head.

Ink right around the
outline of the hair in
black.


Then, using red, ink the
outline of the highlight
across the top of the
head.

Leaving the highlight
white, color the rest
of the hair bright red.
Then create some
darker red ends on
the bangs.
