How to draw a Soft Henchman

Working through a crouched, forward-lunging pose is the skill at the center of this guide, and the Soft Henchman from the Friday Night Funkin’ roster makes for a solid subject to practice it with. This step-by-step tutorial on how to draw a Soft Henchman breaks the aggressive posture down into clear, workable stages so the proportions stay consistent across the whole figure.

What This 30-Step Sketch Covers

The tutorial runs 30 steps and ends on clean black and white line art with no color fill, so every step is purely about structure and line confidence. The crouched pose with arms outstretched adds real asymmetry to manage, especially across the torso, shoulders, and reaching hands. That leaning-forward angle is where most of the difficulty lives, so the early steps build the base shape carefully before adding suit details and facial features later on.

The Soft Henchman’s Key Visual Traits

• Bald head with short, rounded skull
• Dark sunglasses, brows furrowed in anger
• Suit jacket with visible tie and buttons
• Crouched pose with arms spread wide
• Clawed hands extended forward

If you enjoy drawing FNF antagonist-type characters, the Corrupted SpongeBob sketch and the battered Mickey taunting guide both cover similarly expressive, action-heavy poses that are worth working through. For something with a different energy, Taeyai Last Hope offers a more upright composition to contrast the low, aggressive stance here.

Reading the Step Color System

Each step image uses a three-color coding to make it clear exactly what to draw at each stage:

• Red Color: lines added in the current step.
• Black Color: lines completed earlier.
• Gray Color: base sketch for structure.
