This tutorial is about how to draw muscles step by step for kids and beginners. If you are willing to be a good artist you must be skilled in the human body. Thus, today’s drawing lesson is focused on how to draw muscles.
Muscles contract very easily and became small to give movement to that body. They are a bunch of contractile tissues. They allow us to do our every big and small movement of the body as sit, run, walk, talk, eat. We must thank them for being so flexible.
We will start with drawing upper body muscles excluding hands. You will find it easy as this tutorial is divided into steps to render your muscles. You need a pencil, paper, eraser, and a marker to practice this tutorial.
How to Draw Muscles
Step 1: As you have seen a muscular body is wider on top and narrow at the end. Thus draw accordingly frame for your muscle drawing. Use small curves to draw it as muscles are not flat.
Draw it in the downward direction, starting from the top and heading towards the bottom
Step 2: By using 2 lines draw below the neck illustrating color bone. In this step, only your drawing starts projecting muscles.
Step 3: In the center of the body draw muscles of the chest, narrow at the center of the body and wider at outside. Start it just below the collar bone drawn in step 2.
Outline these muscles using a set of curves joining together and forming a squircle ie, not a square or a perfect circle.
Step 4: Below the chest muscle draw outline for abs. Form the outer end of both chest muscles draws 45 degrees of the curve. Then draw a curvy line toward the bottom, wider above, and narrower at the end, refer to the image given below.
Step 5: In this step, you can draw individual abs with the help of horizontal lines.
Step 6: Draw arm muscles splitting them into biceps, defining curves in the outline drawn.
Step 7: Draw a straight diagonal line for neck muscles shown in the image, start it from the inner collar bone to the ear.
Step 8: Draw a bunch of muscles on both sides below the chest on the abdomen. Illustrate them with wavy lines joining each other.
Step 9: This is the final step to finishing it, add small curves to finish the muscles, and look different. You can erase extra lines drawn. Draken the outline to contour the drawing.
We learned upper body muscle drawing, if you want to draw a little slimmer body then adjust the different muscles accordingly. Below we are providing steps for how to draw anime whole body muscle.
Few muscles in to body are supported bones for example, biceps, abs, pectoral muscles, or calves. Draw them bulky and bigger in comparison to other muscles.
Hope you enjoy your anime body muscle drawing. Following these and with a little bit of change, you can draw your superhero as Hulk, Superman, or Doomsday. As I always says practice makes once perfect, keep on practicing different superhero and villains.
