Drawing Katsuki Bakugo in his Strafe Panzer is a blast! He’s one of the most intense characters from My Hero Academia, and his combat gear makes him even more exciting to sketch. In this guide, I’ll help you break down how to draw him in his full battle outfit, complete with his heavy cannons and tough armor. Let’s get started!
What to Focus on When Drawing Katsuki Bakugo
Bakugo’s design is packed with details, especially in his Strafe Panzer form. Here are the main features to focus on while drawing:
- Spiky Hair: Katsuki’s spiky blond hair is one of his most recognizable features.
- Armor: His Strafe Panzer suit includes large shoulder cannons and six heavy-barreled weapons that cover his back.
- Weapons: His gear is packed with nitroglycerin capsules to power his explosions.
- Posture: Bakugo often has a combat-ready stance.
After you finish drawing Bakugo, you might want to try sketching other characters from MHA, like Deku in Costume Zeta or Todoroki, to complete the hero lineup.
Color Guide for Your Drawing
In this guide, we’ll use a color-coding system to make following along even easier. Here’s how it works:
- Red Color: Focus on the lines you’re working on in the current step.
- Black Color: These are the lines you’ve already drawn in previous steps.
- Grey Color: These are the light sketch lines used to block in proportions and general shapes.
This color guide will help keep everything clear as you work through the steps, especially with the intricate design of Bakugo’s armor and weapons.
