Twin buns sitting above long, eye-covering bangs give Lubbock a look that is easy to spot across any lineup from the Akame Ga Kill cast, and this step-by-step tutorial on how to draw Lubbock breaks that look down into 11 manageable steps. The focus stays on his upper body, capturing the relaxed smirk and layered hair without getting lost in full-body complexity.
What the Tutorial Covers and Where the Tricky Parts Are
This is a three-quarter upper body portrait, so all 11 steps go toward getting the face, hair structure, and hoodie right. The twin buns require a bit of patience since they sit at an angle on top of the head, and the asymmetric bangs covering one eye mean the face reads differently on each side. No background, no coloring, just clean line art by the end.
Lubbock’s Key Visual Features
- Medium-length hair with twin buns on top
- Long bangs partially covering one eye
- Calm, slightly smirking expression
- Open hoodie with fur-lined collar
- Three-quarter upper body view
If you are working through the Night Raid roster, the Akame tutorial covers the series’ lead with her long straight hair and red eyes. For a change of style, Kirito and Yuuki Asuna are both worth tackling as portrait practice with different hair and face shapes.
Reading the Color Coding in the Step Images
Each step uses a three-color system to show exactly what is new and what came before:
- Red Color: lines added in the current step.
- Black Color: lines completed earlier.
- Gray Color: base sketch for structure.
