Here’s a full-body drawing guide on how to draw Ikoma in his cloak from Kabaneri of the Iron Fortress. The structure is fairly simple, but the cloak design and proportions make this one a bit more detailed than a standard sketch. I’d rate the complexity as medium.
Key Features to Watch While Drawing Ikoma
- Layered and slightly messy hair that reaches the neck
- High-collared cloak that covers most of the upper body
- Loose-fitting pants tucked into shin-high gear and wraps
- Sandaled footwear with visible straps and detailing
- Pose is upright with a straightforward front-facing angle
Here, I usually suggest other related characters to draw next. But for now, I can only give you a link to a guide for Ikoma in his Kabaneri form, as Mumei and others are still in progress of creating.
How the Color System Works in the Steps
Each drawing stage uses a color-coded system to help make it easier to follow:
- Red Color: These are the lines for the current step you’re working on.
- Black Color: These are previously drawn lines you should keep.
- Grey Color: These form the rough sketch to help shape your figure early on.

Once you finish your drawing, post your Ikoma sketch in the comments on the pinned Pinterest article. Artists usually add their versions there as image replies.
