Up there is who I'll be tracing, his name is Haruka Nanase from Iwatobi Free! Swim Club. Its such an amazing anime I highly recommend this. X3

This is very simple process actually.

On your device your going to look up your favorite anime character (it can also be a comic or a pic of the book character) and left click it and click save image as or save image (if your on phone keep your finger on the pic for few seconds). If you doing it on paper just print out a character or find one in your favorite comic, manga, and book.

Save your images as PNG/JPEG.

Opening the Characters.

On your device, your going to open Medibang (Its a really good art app for pc and phone I recommend it) and then go to File (F) and click on Open (O). It'll open your files and then find your image/pic of your character and click open. Now that its open you need to click add layer. First layer should be the image/pic and second should just be a blank layer.

On your phone your going to press on new canvas and then your going to go to layers and press on the + icon then your going to press select image to add. Your gonna go into your images and pick a character you saved are took a pic of your character in your comic, manga, and books. (if you want to know why I drew Mineta the go to my instagram) .

Then like I said on paper just print out a character form your favorite comic, manga, and book.

This may seem long but its actually not.

Now you can start tracing!!! On layer two (if you wanna see your progress of tracing click the little white dot on the first layer :3). You should be racing on layer 2.

On your phone you can start tracing to with your finger or a stylus pen.

On your paper your going to place it under your plan piece of paper (tip if its in the light it'll help you see the character really well hope it helps ^^) and start tracing it.

Up above is my trace of Haru.

I also have a video for you guys ^^.

Hope you enjoyed this and it helps with your sketching skill!!

My instagram is yuki_sh1r0. I have a lot of art I did most of it is original and I also did some fanart.

Now I did not do the background cause I'm not good at backgrounding. QvQ
