1. Class Intro: Mm hmm. Wata everybody,
my name is Zaire. I'm a professional artist
for more than ten years specializing in traditional
art as well as digital art. In this tutorial, I'm
going to teach you how to draw your favorite
character with three steps. First, we got the
sketching process in which we learn how to draw the face and body using geometrical shapes
and guidelines. In the second part, I'll teach you how to
ink your drawing. And finally, in the first stage, we are going to
color the drawing using copic matters
or color pencils. So without further ado, pick up your pencils and
let's get down to business.
2. Sketching and Shading Zoro : Okay, so today we are going
to draw Rona Zoro from Wapis. As you can see, I started by
drawing a perfect square. Each side is 6 centimeters
and without further ado, we are going to start
by drawing Zero's face. We'll start with
the jaw and then draw the hairline
and his side bone. Next, we're going to use this guy line to help
us draw Zoro's eyes. But first, we'll draw
the nose by using three lines and one more
line for the nostral. Next, we're going to
draw the eyebrow, so we'll start with
a little wrinkle and then three lines to create
the eyebrow, three diagonals. Next, we'll draw the eyelid following up with the eyelashes. As you can see, this
is Zoro's closed eye. And then we are going to draw the left eye by using
the same steps. Only this time this eye will be open and we'll do that by drawing three
curves underneath. Adding the iris at the center but closer to the right side. Then we're going to draw the
mouth by using two lines, two curves, of course. Next, I'm going to refine the joy bit then we
are going to refine the forehead and then we'll draw his famous scar just like that. Next, we're going to
draw Zoro's ears. So first, we'll start by
drawing the shape of the ear. As you can see, I'm using
three lines for that, and then we'll add
the details inside. We'll do the same
for the left side, although the left side
will appear a bit smaller because of the angle Awesome. Next, we are going
to draw Zoro's hair. So first, we'll start by drawing two spikes
of hair right there. Next, we are going to use this guideline to help us
keep the right proportions, the same symmetry for
the rest of the hairs. As you can see, I'm drawing the spikes by using
two, two, three lines. And next, we add some more
spikes of hair inside. And we'll finish up with his famous four
spikes on the front. Also, next, we are going to draw Zoro's neck and
his trap muscles. After that, we are going to use this guideline to help
us draw the torso. As you can see, I'm drawing
a rough shape of the torso. I'm crossing it in the middle, and then we are going to draw
Zoro'sGe we'll start with his robe adding
creases along the way. Next, we're going to
refine the muscles, so we'll draw his neck
muscles again by using some curves and then draw the
chest by using three lines. Next, we're going to
draw the famous scar on Zora's chest and we'll draw some straight
lines along the scar. We're going to add
is Adam's apple, refine the trap muscle. And to finish up the sketch, we'll just add Zor's
three earrings. As you can see, it divides to
three parts just like that. Awesome, so we are going to get rid of all the
unnecessary guidelines. And now we are going to continue
with the inking process. Make sure to grab your
black colour pencil, sharpen it so it can
be sharp and smooth, and then just go
all over the lines. You can do that by pushing
lines or by pulling lines. And to make it more comfortable, please make sure to rotate the page so you
can have your NHM, your natural hand movement. Awesome. Once we
are done with that, we can start the
shading process. For this process, we'll
use an HB two pencil. But before that,
I'm going to take the mechanical pencil and
mark all the shaded areas, so we'll shade them later on. This process is
called cell shading. It's what they do in
to the animation. And for this drawing,
the main light source will come from the left side, which means that
the shaded areas will be on the right side. Awesome. So once we
are done with that, you can grab your HB two pencil. You can even use a B pencil or use your mechanical pencil. We are going to start by
shading the darkest areas, and as you can see for that, I'm holding the pencil
closer to the tip. That way, I can apply more
pressure on the pencil, and by adding more layers, I'm getting a much darker
tone, and of course, make sure to shade in the
direction of the shape. Next, we are going to
shade the brightest areas, and for that, as you can see, I'm holding the pencil
closer to the eraser. That way, I can apply less pressure and therefore
get a brighter tone. If you're wondering why I
switched up the pencils, it's just because this one
started to get too small, so I want to grab
a longer pencil. And next, we are going to grab the black colour pencil
for the most shaded areas, for example, right
below the jaw. Awesome, so we are going to do the same process
for zorros face. Again, starting with the
shaded areas we marked before, shading in the
direction of the shape. Then we'll move on to the brighter tone,
applying less pressure And then we are going to colour the iris with the
black colored pencil. Awesome, and we'll do the exact same process
for this robe. As you can see, I'm using
a blank piece of paper, so I won't smear any of the
lead and win the drawing. I'm going to go
all over the scar again to make it more bold, and then we can move
on to shade the hair. So as you can see, I'm
marking the shaded areas and then filling them up with the
same process we did before. Now, Zora's hair is light green, so I don't want to apply too
much pressure on the pencil, still maintaining
that bright look. Next, if you guys want
to add a nice highlight, you can just use the eraser, and by just erasing it, we create the illusion of light. And we are done. Everybody, this is how you
draw Zoro from O piece. Please let me know
what you think about this tutorial in
the comment section, and tell me which
one piece character would you like me to draw next? Is it oofy, Nami, Ace, maybe coming down below. That's it for today. Keep
being awesome as always. Thank you guys for
all the support, and I'll see you
on the next video. Peace.
