Welcome to today’s drawing tutorial where I’ll show you how to draw Gyokko from Demon Slayer. Gyokko, as one of the upper ranks of the Twelve Kizuki, presents a unique and challenging character design due to his bizarre and grotesque features. This guide is tailored to help you master his intricate details. Let’s explore this character together!
Key Features of Gyokko
- Overall Structure: Begin with Gyokko’s unique body shape, emerging from a porcelain vase. His upper torso is muscular and has 10 arms.
- Distinctive Face: Focus on his distorted facial features. Gyokko’s face has large mouths instead of eyes, and his actual eyes are vertically aligned on his face. The kanji engravings on his forehead and mouth eye are crucial details to include.
- Tail: His lower half extends into a black tail-like structure that contrasts sharply with the rest of his body, adding to his demonic appearance.
- If you find drawing Gyokko intriguing, consider exploring other characters from Demon Slayer like Kokushibo, Gyutaro, Akaza or other members of the Twelve Kizuki for further practice and enhancement of your skills.
