Here’s a quick guide on how to draw Rick’s face from Rick and Morty. I’ve kept it focused only on his head and upper shoulders, so the overall complexity is fairly low. You’ll mostly be working with sharp angles and bold expressions.
Recognizable Features to Focus On
- Jagged spiky hair arranged in a radial pattern
- Heavy unibrow and eyelids
- Squinting eyes and small pupils
- Long lip line and exposed teeth
- Lab coat collar just visible at the bottom of the frame
If you want to stick to the Rick and Morty theme, Morty, Summer, or Mr. Meeseeks would be good next choices to sketch.
How the Visual Guide Works
- Red Color: shows what you should be drawing in the current step
- Black Color: lines already drawn in previous steps
- Grey Color: the initial sketch used to plan proportions
One thing I always find interesting about this kind of guide is how differently everyone’s Rick and Morty drawing turns out, even when people follow the same steps.
