Here’s my walkthrough on how to draw Wenren Yixuan from Fog Hill of Five Elements in a full body pose. This one takes 24 steps, which makes it moderately complex because of the layers of robes, armor, and his proportions.

How to Read the 24-Step Structure
- Red Color: shows the current step you’re working on.
- Black Color: shows the lines already completed.
- Grey Color: represents the rough sketch and proportions.
As you go through the steps, focus on getting the body proportions with a simple first. Build the robes in overlapping layers, making sure the folds match the flow of his stance. Use clear shapes for the armor plates before adding details. The hair can be sketched with spiky clusters that point outward in different directions. Don’t forget to let the boots’ armor panels curve naturally around the legs for proper dimension.
