Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Sketching the Head

A simple square outline representing the base of the Enderman's head.

Start by drawing a cube to form the Enderman's head. Draw a square, then add three straight lines to create a 3D box effect. Teacher's Tip: Use a ruler if you want perfectly straight edges, or practice freehand to improve your steady-hand control.

Step 2: Defining the Torso

The rectangular torso shape extending downward from the head.

Draw three lines descending from the head to create the long, slender body. Connect them at the bottom with two straight lines. Tip: Keep the body thin—Endermen are known for being tall and lanky!

Step 3: Starting the Legs

Initial sketch of the Enderman's long, blocky legs.

Draw two short lines for the first leg and three longer lines for the second, connecting them at the bottom. Add a horizontal line near the top of the leg to show the joint. Tip: Think of these as stacked blocks.

Step 4: Completing the Legs

Adding the final leg to complete the lower body structure.

Draw the remaining leg behind the first one using three straight lines. Connect them at the bottom. Tip: Ensure the legs look parallel to give your character a balanced stance.

Step 5: Sketching the First Arm

Drawing the first long, thin arm extending from the torso.

Draw three parallel lines crossing the body for the arm. Add a small diamond shape at the top to create a joint. Tip: Don't worry if the lines aren't perfect; Minecraft's pixelated style is very forgiving!

Step 6: Cleaning Up

The drawing after erasing unnecessary construction lines.

Gently erase any overlapping guide lines on the arm to make the shape look clean and solid. Tip: Use a soft eraser to avoid tearing your paper.

Step 7: Adding the Second Arm

Adding the second arm with a notched hand detail.

Extend three lines from the other side of the body. Create a 'notch' for the hand by drawing small parallelograms and squares. Tip: This adds that signature Minecraft 'pixel' detail.

Step 8: Adding Pixel Details

Adding pixelated texture markings to the limbs.

Add small, irregular shapes on the arms and legs to represent the pixelated texture of the Enderman. Tip: Keep these shapes small to maintain the scale of the character.

Step 9: Drawing the Eyes

Drawing the rectangular glowing eyes on the Enderman's face.

Draw two small horizontal rectangles on the face. Add vertical lines inside each to give them that glowing, intense look. Tip: Place them near the center of the head for the best look.

Step 10: Coloring Your Enderman

Use black for the body, and bright purple or white for the eyes. Tip: If you want a retro look, use green for the eyes like in early game versions!
