Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Sketching the Head and Glasses

Sketching the circular head and rectangular sunglasses frames for Contract Giller.

Draw a light circle for the head. Add two oblong rectangles over the top to form the frames of his sunglasses. Teacher's Tip: Keep your pencil pressure light here so you can easily erase the overlapping lines inside the glasses later.

Step 2: Defining the Mouth and Arms

Drawing the oval mouth and the initial V-shape structure for the character's arms.

Sketch an oval for the mouth with a small curve inside to show expression. Begin the arms using two V-shapes. Teacher's Tip: Use quick, confident strokes for the V-shapes to give the arms a more dynamic, action-ready look.

Step 3: Adding Hands and Weapon Base

Adding the fingers and the basic cylindrical shape for the pistol.

Draw three simple tube shapes for the fingers and a cylinder for the pistol. Teacher's Tip: Think of the fingers as small sausages; keeping them rounded makes the character look more like a cartoon.

Step 4: Detailing the Torso and Gun

Refining the shoulder curves and adding mechanical details to the pistol.

Outline the shoulders with smooth curves and add triangles on the sides for the suit lapels. Add small circles and rectangles to the gun to define its mechanical parts. Teacher's Tip: Focus on symmetry here to keep the character looking balanced.

Step 5: Shaping the Right Arm

Drawing the right arm and hand structure using simple geometric shapes.

Draw the right arm using a backward L-shape and add the fingers. Teacher's Tip: If the hand looks too large, remember that cartoon characters often have exaggerated features—it adds to the fun!

Step 6: Constructing the Suit

Adding the final finger and sketching the coat structure for the suit.

Add the final finger and connect the arm to the shoulder. Sketch uneven rectangles for the coat to give it a tailored look. Teacher's Tip: Use a ruler if you want the coat edges to look extra sharp and professional.

Step 7: Adding the Belt and Legs

Adding the belt and the initial lines for the character's legs.

Sketch triangular shapes for the shirt details and rectangles for the belt. Draw the legs with two uneven lines. Teacher's Tip: Varying the thickness of your lines here can help define the difference between the shirt and the belt.

Step 8: Drawing the Shoes

Completing the legs and adding the shoes to the character drawing.

Complete the legs and add semi-ovals for the shoes. Draw a straight line under the belt to finish the waist area. Teacher's Tip: Ensure the shoes are grounded on the same level so the character doesn't look like he's floating!

Step 9: Final Outlining

Adding final details and outlining the character with ink.

Add interior details to the shoes, pants, and pistol. Go over your final lines with a black ink pen. Teacher's Tip: Take your time with the ink; slow, steady movements create the cleanest lines.

Step 10: Adding Color
