How to draw Portgas D. Ace | One Piece

Portgas D. Ace, popularly known as the “Fire Fist” Ace, isn’t just another pirate; he’s an icon, a symbol, a character that has left an indelible mark in the One Piece universe. This guide will aid you in mastering how to draw Ace, from his fiery eyes to his trademark tattoos.

Character’s Appearance and Key Points

  • Facial Features: Ace’s curly black hair, pronounced freckles inherited from his mother, and his skeptical expression characterized by a raised left eyebrow. One might even say he bears a youthful resemblance to his biological father, Gol D. Roger.
  • Tattoos: His tattoos are essential. The Whitebeard symbol on his back and the “ASCE” (with the S crossed out) on his upper left bicep stand out. Remember, these aren’t just designs; they tell a story.
  • Attire:  His iconic orange hat with two blue smileys.
  • Additional Characters: If you wish to expand your drawing horizons, consider sketching his brother Luffy or Nami, or even his nemesis, Blackbeard.

Understanding the Guide

This guide employs a unique color coding system to aid in your drawing journey:

  • Red Color: This represents the current step you need to focus on.
  • Black Color: Showcases lines drawn in previous steps.
  • Grey Color: Indicates the basic sketch you should begin with.

The guide comprises 13 comprehensive steps. Initiate with a basic sketch, which aids in keeping the proportions accurate. Remember to use light strokes during this phase. By the end, you’ll have the option to ink your sketch, but ensure you wait for the ink to dry before erasing any pencil lines to prevent smudging.
