How to Draw a "Realistic" Manga Face, Line by Line

[goldsage99]

anatomy people it helps (the upper lip has 3 muscles one left one right one middle)and the lower has 2(one left one right

[RoxaneAmber]

do you actually EVER need to use an eraser, Mark? =D

[hi101hello123]

i really loved the video i drew right along with it and it turned out really good.... thank you

[AppleBows]

They were selling Brody's Ghost at my schools book fair!

[sakura79935]

Well, if I were to draw a female character would this stuff be the same? Or is there some other different method for it? With the neck and the eyes maybe? Or is it the same?

I also wanted to thank you for all these tutorial videos, they've helped a lot.

[Rockaholicmatt]

I've commented on a lot of your videos (you must be getting sick of me) but in this one I just wanted to say in all the time I've been watching your videos (a couple of days) I've come to a decision that I HATE one thing about you (not in a nasty way)

You can actually draw, I'm probably between 1 & 10 about 4 you on the other hand 1-10 your probably around 99999999999!!!!

[ahmedanime]

is nice and i wish learn or me how to draw nice manga and i have some of me draw in youtube end i wish you see it and told me is good or not good

[Morahiqtanjawi]

Did not keep me from what I'm saying is Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice

[OKanielaKouInoa]

is it possible to draw a real life person in a manga or what I mean is how do you draw someone you know or yourself as a manga, like is it possible to draw a celebrity like Kim Kardashian, or just anyone as a manga

[Juruscrildo]

YOU ARE INSANE!!!! *------*... PLZ do more videos about realistic manga face with hair... THUMBS UP!! *-*

[Samlidonwa]

you are the best... thank to you, now I can design my book's characters *_*

[hemel2voor]

Thanks for the vid ^^ It's very useful.

[sugadady24]

I noticed you were holding your pencil weird while drawing the first eye is that a good way to hold your pencil that helps u draw?

[crazycarl409]

You are one amazing artist mate truly, I love art myself always have but me putting pencil to paper like you do would be like the queer of England pulling a king Charles spaniel out her arse LOL but truly mate you've helped me a lot with my art work so I'd like to thank you!

[mypupismup]

I love your different voices XD

[577540]

thanks

[chapicoras]

lo mejor que eh visto asta ahora!

[chapicoras]

by far the best teacher on vid for beginners like me! thank you

[pyrus2009]

the first pencil you used is HB?

[xXRezEvilXx]

bravo!! i love it!

[socalman028]

I'M APPALLED

[StacyxxBear]

Great job!

[xar91]

I would like to request a video on how to do the final line and shading. I feel that that final step can push a good drawing into a great drawing. thank you for all your help.

[ZackFairFan100]

i have most difficulties drawing the lips also, and the guidlenes help soo much

[MsKinato]

The awesomeness that is mark crielly

[ShadowPhoenixKC]

How about a tutorial on an androgynous character's face?

[InsaneJanie]

the 39 dislikers are just jealous cause they dont know how to use tutorials :) the 3676 likers can use tutorials to improve themselves :D

[narutorpcfriends]

Great drawing! But the ear is a bit too far to the left. Doing a quick gesture sketch before demonstrating may help with proportions. Then, as your teaching, you and show people how you measure out specific parts of the face, rather than by doing it all free-handed.

Just an idea! C: <3 Still love you Mark!

[dazmaster22]

mark please do a vid on how to draw short male hair, like ichigo's or naruto's

[Flamingbullet06]

Step 1: Draw a perfect square.

*No ruler or straight edges to use*

Fuck.

[silverBloodRosez]

omg i love ur drawings but can you do a action or fighting scene cuz me nd my brother can use the help :)

[AnkokuShadow]

Fab video, Mr Crilley, as per usual ^_^ If possible, could you do a video explaining how to draw people crying?

[manday231]

shading please :) awesome video it helped a lot

[MrHAPPYBOMBER]

@manday231 shading is pretty easy as long you know how bright and where the light source is

[fooferboo]

maybe a nice tutorial on how to draw mouths .o. male and female i know but every time i draw a humans face the mouth stops me from completing the drawing ESPECIALLY if its a male face a woman's mouth i dunno what it is about it but its easier to draw the mouth that is

its like im just allowed to get rather.. carried away with the lips on a female face and it can still look appealing ya know what i mean <8(?

[22volleyballMvp]

i cant draw a perfect square...maybe i should get a ruler?

[JessiesaurusXxX]

Love ur artwork :) ur such an inspiration! -3

[MsBrowniepuff]

omg thank you! it turned out SO well :D

[SHAYTARDSFANHERE]

i tried to draw this....

mine looks like a gay version of leonardo decapreo/Older version of the guy in the jungle book/Alladin, fell in a river and his not happy about it....

Yeah... That sums up my drawing :D hahaha

[yournuubgod]

man mark, I remember watching your videos from a few years ago. Your art has DEFINITELY improved, it's really awesome knowing that even as awesome as you were, you are always growing and accepting new things. I appreciate it. Thanks for the awesome stuff!

[talithasushi]

i always check out your videos mark you rock!

[talithasushi]

shut up this is amazing!

[Sidattack1]

UTTERLY USELESS!!! Lol

[talithasushi]

@Sidattack1 listen if you think you can do better show me

[Sidattack1]

@talithasushi i was writing down what i thought was funny, remember he does the impression of the "art teacher" in the video, his voice gets all punctual and sofisticated, i was just quoting him...I think that mark is ridiculously amazing!

[Blakemansnetwork]

@Sidattack1 if you think you can do better then show me im callin you out!

[CTwarriorcats]

My wish for another video:

PLEASE DRAW A GIRL WITH BOW AND ARROWS AND SUCH :D

[ilikepickles000]

Is it me or does the guy look like Jack from 'titanic'?

[The12yearoldartist]

Mark Where Are Your Books Currently Selling Because I Can't Find Them Anywhere In England, I Mean I Can Look On EBay But I Wanna See It Brand New. Hope You Reply!

[talithasushi]

[SugarPuurin]

[LtheHedgehog]

Everytime that I start watching Mark's videos I say to myself "What the hell? This is looking terrible..." but then, somehow it start looking a little better and then I wink for a quarter of second and there is another masterpiece. Great work Mark, keep doing these awesome videos!

[acechin1]

[SC87542806427]

Can you do one like this in that pose but with a girl or would the chin and eye lines b just about the same?

[Xshifterable]

[artisan224]

[SIXTYZmusic]

This is utterly useless as a drawing lesson :LOL

[dihoulaladine]

lol, you showed us with a square or a line where to put the jaw, the chin and the ear, but not the hair. :P

well anyway, can you maybe make a video about how to draw the same character in different poses ? (especially to see how to draw the same exact hairstyle, i mean)

[BaconBoy914]

Guys. How many times has Crilley says he loves Obata now? Come one people...

[MrAchu12]

The bakuman drawing thing would be nice and he wouldn't get in trouble for copyright infringement if he used one of the fictional mangas they used



[mehdiharrak]

Hey marks ! your videos is juste awesome, I leard a lot of usefull things that improve my drawing, Thanks a lot ! keep the vidéos comming !

[ratacitoarea1]

[GreekNuffin]

Hey Mark can you make a video JUST about your portfolio for college! I know you've done it in one of your videos before but i cant seem to find it. Thanks

[MrSpIdErPiG1000]

@markcrilley hey, i <3 your videos and they have really helped me to learn manga, however, i am really stuck on how you draw someone holding something in their hand, like maybe a pencil or something, so could you please do a video of someone holding something, i'm sure other people would greatly appreciate it too? Thank you

[RogueDana]

hey Mark!

Great stuff you have there.

I have a request...can you please draw the female body vs male body.

So i could just see the differences.

Thanks

Dana

[teatedspace4647]

[sakuisdeath]

He looked black at first.

[Strahovuk1]

[Megamagicchild]

MARK IM YOUR BIGGEST FAN I GOT ALL OF UR BOOKS :D BUT IF U LIVEDED IN DENMARK U HAD TO VISIT MY SCHOOL

[IdaC93]

This is just fantastic! :D ^^

[lotusfae]

So... many... lines...

[smalltugz]

this is not the correct way for a beginner to learn how to draw

[alg1234567890]

Do want that How-To-Draw Book!! I'll have to ask for it for my birthday x3

[ModderTutorial360]

thx , haha mined turned out quite good :) impressed with it :)

[utopia752]

Absolutely amazing tutorial and I love Miki Falls! :D

My favorite book has to be Summer.

The part where she lays down in the grass, watching at the stars just gets me.

And the artwork throughout all of the books is phenomenal.

[SophiaTheWebkinzFan]

plz draw a fighting scene (or more) it would help me sooo much ^^`

[RichardDubstepRomani]

Thank You !!!

[PrincessOz974]

hi mark !!!

do you think that you could make a tutorial of the body that would go with this "pose" ? :D

thank you for all of your tutorials, I've been doing enormous progress since I'm following you !!! :)

[TacticalPivot]

I have two questions for you.

what pensil do you use? H2,HB,B2(, something else I have no idea about)?

how large is this drawing?

[sakura8112]

@TacticalPivot Its in his channel.

[TheBrokenChef]

You rock..



[whoiscorben]

i tryed draw'n it... but my guy ended up looking like pein

[cottoncandy125]

i love to draw, paint, and shade, but i could never draw anime characters. only animals. 

[likiliki8]

Do you also draw without the grids? I never really could apply any to my drawings

[89Psycho89]

This is uttely useless as drawing lesson.

[kimmyb416]

@89Psycho89 Screw u then.

[TheGrimAddiction]

Dear Mr. Crilley

This isn't quite a request but more of an idea.

To Draw up a collage of Your favorite characters of any of Your favorite Anime/Manga

of all time.

Just a fun video i suppose lol

[4Ev3r13]

At my school we just had a book fair, and one of your books was there! Me and all my friends were looking at it! They all thought it was really cool :)

[echinikhmer]

I totally love your tutorials...

[Nurullah1200]

Amazing...

[MonsterInU]

This is fuckin great! *0*

[Kareesha1000]

neat



[JasmyneG6]

Show off. =D

But this really helps.

[XDangelrockXP]

hi hi you can do anime valentains?? yea xDD

[ErsatzSybelle]

Thanks a lot! What kind of pen are u using? I'm sorry, (I don't understand too much english, less when I'm listen)

[MrChlaudio]

@ErsatzSybelle

the pen is not so important, you should find the pen wich fits to you. Painters don't like, when others ask things abouth pencils and papers...

[dogs4ever129]

Cool! When your Mastering Manga comes out, I totally want to get it!

[WXWX14]

whats that black pencil called at the end

[MrChlaudio]

@WXWX14

Find your pencil, it's important that the pencil fits to your hand, and your charakter..



[darkvoid9309]

@WXWX14 Its more than likely a prismacolor

[ErmmKayy]

Mark, how do you start up (like u have done) an manga art or any kind of art youtube channel? What do you really need?

[cocosaysfu]

Isn't this style just called semi-realism? ;w;

[619794100]

this helped me allot

[only3clicks]

Hi Mark, i study your videos pretty thoroughly and since ive started watching your videos i have grown very much. Maybe this request is alittle peculiar, but sometimes i feel as if my skill level could continue to grow if maybe i had the audio for your videos on my ipod. Have you ever thought of making audio recordings of your tutorials? i think this idea would be helpful for those who cant access a computer on a regular basis.

[Elzelgator]

i wanted to like this but...

i hate justin bieber so..

[sakura8112]

@Elzelgator thumbs up for hating justin beaver

[sugarrr96]

I'll be back with another one......... Real soon.

[BigFootOwl]

totally agree..i think the mouth is alot tougher

[MrAnimethunder]

Enjoyed the lesson, looking forward to the next one !! ^_^

[EyeKilledMyTv]

That was AWSOME :D

[cocoabunzrok110]

does it bother anyone else how perfect his pencil looks?

[BenThaGamer]

I finally found you Mark after 1 year!

[TheGunibert]

I love your vids could you please do more Chibie vid i want to draw a Chibie comic :D

[MrJuju6696]

@TheGunibert I dont like you

[Lozzee3]

@dooodoooood who's...?

[finchel4everfreak]

YOU R TOTALLY TALKING TO URSELF

[KameSollus]

Hello Mark,

I've been watching the anime series "Bakuman" lately, it's an anime/manga series about two boys wanting to become mangaka, and there's this fictional character in there named Niizuma Eiji.

I have been blown away by the artstyle of the art supposedly drawn by Niizuma, and i have studied the style, just like you taught us in your "how to draw naruto" video, but i just can't seem to get it right.

I'd love it if you could make a tutorial on Niizuma's evolved shounen style!

Thanks!

[deogrou]

@KameSollus Quite a while ago, I saw Bakuman vol. 1 lying in a bookstore, I think back then it was the only volume available in my country, so I decided to get it and wow, it's just so amazing, inspirational, motivational and just a really good manga. Ofcourse what could you expect from the makers of Death Note ;) but I'm really glad I picked it up, I should really get some other volumes of it or watch the anime sometime.

But Bakuman srsly changed my life lol..

[MrTStat]

@KameSollus

@KameSollus hello about Eiji's style it's just "OBATA Takeshi" fantastic ability to change his style make it look like as someone else

focus on "Zombie guns" vs "Reversi" it's the same lines the same sense

you can see the style of "Death note" shinigami "ryuk" for instance

i don't know any other art of Mr.Takeshi

but he is just so skilled

[lol832297]

your cool but can the next time dont speed up please:)

[TheYerkk]

Mr. Crilley,

I was wondering if you would perhaps teach us how to draw a realistic elven face.

Thank you.

[123bannate]

thank you mark i wish you next time draw the body

[lulahgirl14]

hey mark? i love your videos, they have taught me so much about drawing manga :) anyway, i was wondering if you could do some more tutorials about drawing simple manga boys' faces... that's what i need the most work on :)

[EL12111]

after completing my Collection of Sundome n High school of the debut in 2 months , i am gonna buy Ur mikki falls manga \M/

[RyanWwe1CPMV]

Sorry if I sound stupid, but is that black prisma colored pencil a regular colored pencil? Or is it really called Black Prisma? :3 And where did you get it? xD

[sumon1136]

i spend most of my time drawing from mark crilley's videos....he is a great man.....

[sumon1136]

i am a big FAN of MARK CRILLEY

[purplepinkblueness]

this is amazing and i hope one day i can do that. in the meantime i'm watching these. it's so realistic i wouldn't call it manga anymore, but it's still amazing

[MrStealch]

You drawning is very awesome, greetings from Poland. / O ja pier...

[delgado1744]

nice



[PabloXx54]

oohh men i wish i could draw like that....quess is a cuestion of practice...but i'm tired of try :/

[NudellzZ]

omfg i just want to be a drawer like him

[1998tabar]

is it just me or does it look like cloud from final fantasy 0_o?

[1998tabar]

36 people don't like drawing xD

[PokePlayerPL]

What are pencils you used for drawing?

[MrChlaudio]

@PokePlayerPL

i think you should find a pencil on your one, wich fits to your hand and your character...

a lot of people ask things like this, but drawers don't like questions like this...

i hope you find a pencil wich you like..

greatings from switzerland

[darkvoid9309]

@MrChlaudio your annoying...if he(she) wanted to know the brand, you should tell them...jeez.

[KameSollus]

@darkvoid9309 Mark told us what his pen is alot of times.

Its a Black PrismaColour, available in almost every local art supply shop.

I think it's good that MrChlaudio gave the guy some advice on becoming an artist.

[darkvoid9309]

@KameSollus I told him what brand it was and i just thought that he was being rude thats all. All that guy did was ask a simple question.

[TheDrummerdiva]

SHADING VIDEO!!



[Johnnysback1]

Danggggg, not only is he a Fantastic drawer, he has a great scence of humor haha =], This helped me soo much! Thank you! :)

[EarthMaidenFallon]
