Capturing the rigid formality and ornamental details of a Britannian noble takes some careful planning, and this guide on how to draw Jeremiah Gottwald walks through exactly that alongside the broader Code Geass character library on the site. The mask alone has enough decorative complexity to slow things down if you rush it.
What the 11-Step Walkthrough Covers
The tutorial runs 11 steps from the first structural lines through to the final colored result. Most of the early steps focus on getting the head proportions and hair silhouette correct before the mask detail is introduced, since placing that orange piece correctly affects the entire face composition. The coloring step at the end handles the full palette, so the line work needs to be clean before you get there.
Jeremiah Gottwald: Key Visual Features
- Teal-blue hair swept back with wild strands
- Orange mask with gem details over right eye
- Stern, furrowed expression
- Dark cape over white shirt
- Purple cravat at the collar
The mask is the part that takes the most patience, with its curling ornamental edges and red and green gem accents requiring steady linework. If you want more Code Geass characters to practice on, Lloyd Asplund and Nunnally vi Britannia cover two very different design styles from the same series. Shirley Fenette is another good follow-up if you want to work on softer expressions after Jeremiah’s stern face.
