Hello everyone, today I’m excited to present a tutorial on how to draw Ichigo Kurosaki full body. Whether you’re a seasoned artist or just starting out, this step-by-step guide will help you capture the essence of this iconic character from the “Bleach” series.
Focus Points for Ichigo Kurosaki’s Appearance
Begin with Ichigo’s signature spiky orange hair; it’s distinct and easily recognizable.
Notice his lean build and the subtle muscle definition indicative of his Shinigami training.
Ichigo’s facial expressions are often serious or scowling, a nod to his protective and strong-willed nature.
To add some context, you might want to reference other characters like Rukia, or his wife, Orihime, and their influence on his character.
Understanding the Ichigo Kurosaki Full Body Drawing Guide
This guide is structured as a sequence of images, each representing a progressive step towards the final drawing of Ichigo Kurosaki. Here’s how the color coding works:
Red Color: Indicates the current step and the lines you should be drawing now.
Black Color: Shows the lines from the previous steps, guiding you on how the current steps integrate into the overall drawing.
Grey Color: Represents the basic sketch and helps you keep the correct proportions and angles throughout the drawing process.
We have 13 steps in total, beginning with a basic sketch and concluding with the option to ink your drawing. Inking should be done with a steady hand, following the final sketch lines. Allow the ink to dry fully before gently erasing the pencil marks to avoid smudging and to ensure a clean, crisp finish to your artwork.
Step 01 – Begin by drawing a vertical line to serve as the central axis of the pose. Place seven horizontal lines across it, which will guide the proportions and alignment of the body parts in your Ichigo Kurosaki full body drawing
