Sketching a full-body hero pose with outstretched arms and exaggerated costume detail is the core skill this tutorial builds, and Present Mic from the My Hero Academia series gives plenty of material to work with across all 18 steps. If you want to learn how to draw Present Mic with confidence, this guide breaks the construction down from rough structure to finished color.
What the 18 Steps Cover and Where the Work Is
This is a full-body standing pose with both arms stretched wide, which means proportion and symmetry get a real workout. The 18 steps run from the basic skeleton to full color, so the pacing moves through structure, costume detail, and shading without rushing any section. Most of the line complexity sits in the upper body, between the collar, chest device, headphones, and gloves, so expect that middle section of the tutorial to take the longest.
Present Mic’s Visual Breakdown
- Tall spiky golden hair pointing upward
- Orange sunglasses, headphones, wide grin
- Black jacket, large collar, chest device
- Fingerless gloves with red trim
- Black pants, tall boots, brown belt
If you want more MHA characters to practice with, Nejire Hado in her post-war costume is a good next step for working through complex hero outfits. Red Riot’s full-body hero costume is worth trying too, since it also focuses on full-body proportion in a posed stance. For something different in tone, Shoto’s face keeps the focus tight on expression and linework.
Reading the Step Colors in This Tutorial
Each step uses a three-color system to show exactly what is new and what came before:
