Hey. I do the art of Anime. I'm having troubles with side-veiws and couples. My scaner is broken so when I can fix it I will scan on a few of my pictures. Please help me with the eyes and faces/bodys and hair. Mostly SHORT hair. If you have any pictures or anything please show me. I'd really like it. Thankyou.

I don't have any pictures online right now of what you are having trouble with, but those are some of the harder things to draw. I can post some for you though If you would like~

I have to agree that profile views are one of the hardest things to draw. Once you get it though, it will just come naturally ;3

I'm just going to say, that you want to keep the mouth completely within the lines of the face, and if you try looking at the profile of someones head.

and this video may help you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3UuA7gbT1_M
I personally don't like his techniques too much, but I think it will help.


and all this reminds me I need to up date my deviantart.....

I can do a couple scans of my books for you that result in those areas and I can scribble up a few sketches for you to see how I apply them to my work, I typically work in 3/4.

Anyways, if you go to my dA account, I have some anime-ish drawings ranging back up to 2years ago or so.

To Deviant Art

I was thinking of showing a video of how I do my work but I dunno yet =]

Couples for me is really hard to draw because I can't draw guys. At all. Side views are hard as well but what I did was look at a manga a look at the picture of a girl's side view as a reference, and it came out really well.

Hang on and I'll do a tutorial on a sheet of paper...I won't put words but I'll use step by step imagery for the faces.

Well I've also got a few questions:
Kissing or not?

looking at each other or not?

Online tutorials and videos will rarely help you, but are sometimes interesting to develop a style. The best way to learn is to draw from real life/real life pictures. Practice Practice Practice!

Although I say you must draw from real life, as I said, anime pictures can also be helpfull in developing a style. I'll try and draw a side-view for you. (hang on and i'll post it)

Now, if you want a step-by-step explanation, iI'll be happy to make one for you. But remember that practice is the important thing. These are just to help you get a basic idea on which features you should draw.
