How to draw “Manly” Dan Corduroy


Welcome, my fellow artists! Today we’re going to delve into the world of manliness and learn how to draw one of the manliest men in all of Gravity Falls: Manly Dan. With his impressive physique and unmistakable red beard, Manly Dan is the epitome of masculinity. But don’t let his rugged exterior intimidate you – with our tips and tricks, you’ll be able to capture his charm in your artwork in no time.

Character Description:

Manly Dan is a true man’s man. He’s extremely large, strong, and muscular, with a thick red beard and eyebrows that could rival the size of a small tree. He’s often seen wearing a stereotypical lumberjack outfit, complete with brown work gloves and boots. But what really sets Manly Dan apart is his charisma – he exudes confidence, strength, and masculinity in everything he does.

Drawing Guide with Tips:

  • Start with the basic shapes. Use these shapes to create a rough outline of his body and features before moving on to the details.
  • Emphasize his size: Manly Dan is a big guy, so make sure to emphasize his size in your drawing. Use thick lines to make him look more muscular and draw his features larger than life.
  • Don’t forget the beard: Manly Dan’s red beard is one of his most iconic features, so make sure to pay extra attention to it when drawing him. Use short, thick lines to create a textured effect that will give his beard the same rough and rugged feel as the man himself.
  • Add details: Once you’ve got the basic outline and size down, start adding details like his chest hair, arm hair, and the gap between his front teeth. These details will make your drawing look more realistic and help to capture the essence of Manly Dan.
