In this tutorial, I’ll be walking you through how to draw Knuckleduster from MHA: Vigilantes in 21 steps. The sketch is a full-body image of Iwao Oguro in his street vigilante form, walking forward with clenched fists and a serious expression. This one leans toward the intermediate level because of the clothing details, arm anatomy, and pose.
What to Focus On When Drawing Knuckleduster
- Muscular build and wide shoulders
- Black mask covering upper face and head
- Diagonal scar across the left side of his face
- Open trench coat flowing backward
- Straps, buckles, and fingerless gloves
- Brass knuckles worn over gloves
- Cargo-style pants and rugged boots
If you’re thinking of drawing more characters from this universe next, Koichi Haimawari or other heroes like Ojiro, Nejire Hado and Ryuko Tatsuma are good options.
Color Cues to Help You Follow the Guide
This guide uses color to make each step easier to follow:
- Red Color: highlights the new lines you should draw in the current step
- Black Color: shows the completed lines from earlier steps
- Gray Color: marks the basic sketch that helps set up the pose
This Knuckleduster drawing includes specific design elements like coat folds, muscle lines, and a facial scar. Make sure to keep the symmetry in the arms and align the facial features before adding small details. The trench coat also adds movement, so pay attention to the curve of each panel to keep the balance.
