Getting the ODM gear proportions right is the main hurdle in this tutorial, and Marco Bott from the Attack on Titan series gives you plenty of gear detail to practice with. Learning how to draw Marco Bott means working through harness straps, hip canisters, and tall boots all at once on a single standing figure.
What the 14-Step Walkthrough Actually Covers
The tutorial runs 14 steps from rough structure through finished line art, with no color added at the end. Most of the detail work lands in the mid-section of the guide where the jacket, harness straps, and ODM gear canisters get built out. It is a full-body standing figure with a relaxed pose, so proportions across the whole figure need to stay consistent throughout.
Marco Bott’s Key Design Features
- Short, neatly drawn hair, wide eyes
- Jacket with chest harness straps
- Shorts with tall boots on both legs
- ODM gear canisters strapped to both hips
- One hand raised behind head, relaxed pose
If you want more Scout Regiment practice before or after this one, the guide pairs well with Mikasa Ackerman’s face for close-up facial work, or you can try the full-body complexity of Eren with his weapons. For something completely different in style, Eren’s half-titan form makes a solid contrast piece.
