Unraveling the Guide
This tutorial will guide you through 10 essential steps to sketch Shanks’ face with precision and style. Be keen on the color coding:
- Red Color: Highlights the current step you’re working on.
- Black Color: Shows previously drawn lines.
- Grey Color: Illustrates the basic sketch and proportions.
Initiate your journey with a light penciled basic structure, aiding in maintaining proportions. Culminating the guide, artists have the option to ink their sketch. After inking, ensure the ink has dried completely before erasing the pencil marks to avoid smudging.
