How to Draw Rey - A Tutorial

Hi everyone! I am here with my tutorial!:D

If you are recreating this I have two things to say. Here is the picture I used as a guide if you want it for yourself.:)

And next, very important, DRAW VERY LIGHTLY! I didn't draw this perfectly at the beginning, so at the end I had to erase some things.;) So that being said, draw lightly so that no permanent marks mar your finished drawing.:)

(Drawing lightly is something I have yet to master...XD)

Okay, let's start the tutorial!:D

 

I started off with a light circle for her head. A circle is always a good start for making your head, but make sure it's light because it won't be staying for the finished product.:) 

Next I added little bumps for her cheek bones. 

Now add downward lines to the bumps that are going inwards slightly for her jaw. 

From the ends of those lines I drew the bottom of her jaw and chin, making sure that her chin is round and realistic. If you need a little help, you can look at the picture and use that as a guide.

I used a ruler to make sure her cheekbones and jaw points are straight. Then, also using the ruler, I put a light line down the center of her face to make sure her face stays centered.:) 

Here's what it looks like.:) 

Next I added her hair, which is basically a big bump on her head with all of these little bumps on her temples. (I know things look sort of cock-eyed, but I think my camera was tilted.XD) 

For her curls just make little waves.:D I also added ears, the top of the ears should be where the circle ends in her hair.:)

Next I added her eyes after I erased the circle of her head. You may want to make your Rey's left eye be slightly farther to the left. 

I added half circles inside her eyes. 

Next I drew the shine to her eyes, mini ovals.:) 

Continuing with her eyes, I drew the bottom of her eyebrows, making the right one slightly tilted and the other one straight with a small, barely noticeable curve at the end for the arch of her eyebrow, because it's natural even if her eyebrow is scrunched straight.:) 

I finished the top of her eyebrows, as you can see.:) 

I drew her pupils.

After that, I drew her eye creases and super light tiny squint-y lines under her eyes.:) 

Connecting to her eyebrows, I drew the bridge of her nose. 

Her nose was really hard for me, but although it may look sort of funny without anything else, it works in the long run.:) You can make her nose by starting with two squashed circles for her nose holes, with only a little bit of space in between. Then you draw the curves of the outside of her nose.:) 

Starting her mouth, you draw a line that tilts downwards at both of the ends. Then a thin top lip, and a long "D" shaped bottom lip.:) 

This is where I had made a mistake. I had made her chin a little too long, so I erased it, but it ended up being slightly too short. Oh, well.;P 

I drew her neck, then her shoulders, adding the bumps of her wrap. I then made her shirt's neckline- a "V" and then that little indent.;) 

She also has her collar bones, which are super simple to draw, and her rounded "V" at the bottom of them. I put a short line on her neck to add a touch of her neck tendons.;) 

Then I drew the tab on her shirt neck line, finished her wrap, arms and chest.:) 

And TA-DA!;) Rey is finished! Oh wait- 

Add her little lines in her hair.;)

And then it's all done! I hope you liked the tutorial, although it might not be the best.:)
