In this beginner-friendly Skillshare class, you’ll learn how to draw an anime head in side view, step by step. I’ll break the process down into simple, easy-to-follow stages so you can confidently create a clean and expressive profile—even if you’re new to drawing.
Together, we’ll cover the key building blocks of an anime side profile, including:
- Constructing the head with simple shapes and guidelines
- Understanding the proportions of the face
- Drawing the forehead, nose, lips, chin, and jaw
- Placing the eye and ear correctly in profile
- Creating anime-style hair that follows the shape of the head
- Refining your sketch into clean, confident linework
- Avoiding common mistakes that can make profiles look flat or unnatural
By the end of the class, you’ll have a finished anime head in side profile and a simple process you can reuse for your own characters. Whether you’re a complete beginner, an anime fan, or an artist looking to improve your character drawings, this class will help you build a strong foundation and make drawing profiles feel much easier.
