What we will draw<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Hey everyone, let’s get straight into the tutorial. We’re gunna prove the fist is mightier than the sword… Or that the pen is weaker than the fist? I don’t know, we’re learning how to draw a fist, that’s all that matters. \ud83d\ude05<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"How<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 1<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Let start things off with a good ol’ circle. Keep your lines nice and light as this will be the underdrawing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-1\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 2<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

From the right side go straight down from the circle. A little left of centre, draw an slightly curved line downwards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-2\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 3<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

First draw an arch just under the top of the circle, then 4 small circles that will eventually be the knuckles. \u270a<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-3\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 4<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now we’re gunna rough out the thumb. On the left side, about half way down the circle, draw an elongated circle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-4\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 5<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now add a few more lines to start getting the shape of the top of our fist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-5\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 6<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Another diagonal line on the right side that will eventually be the baby finger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-6\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 7<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now draw two smaller circles at the base of the palm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-7\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 8<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We are adjusting our wrist lines here to get proportions correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-8\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 9<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now we want to rough in where the fingers are going to go.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-9\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 10<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-10\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 11<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ok, lets start darkening that underdrawing and defining our shapes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-11\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 12<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We are gunna start with the thumb again and just block things out to get the shape of things correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-12\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 13<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"fist-13\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 14<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Our knuckles are next. Right now we’re just blocking out the shape of the four knuckles and getting them in the right position. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-14\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 15<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now a curved line from the 4th knuckle down to the wrist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-15\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 16<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now a line from the wrist which makes up the start of the arm where the fist attaches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-16\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 17<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We also rough in the other side of the arm and wrist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-17\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 18<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now fill in the shape of the pointer finger. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-18\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 19<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Proceed to block in all the rough shapes for the 4 fingers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-19\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 20<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"fist-20\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 21<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"fist-21\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 22<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"fist-22\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 23<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Ok, now that the shape of our fist is complete, were going to start inking our outline. \ud83d\ude0e<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"fist-23\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 24<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"fist-24\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 25<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"fist-25\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 26<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"fist-26\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 27<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"fist-27\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 28<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"fist-28\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 29<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"fist-29\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 30<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"fist-30\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 31<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"fist-31\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 32<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"fist-32\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 33<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Step<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 34<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you’re still following along, great job! Now we’re going to add a little colour to our fist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Step<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 35<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Step<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 36<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Add a couple of light spots on the palm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Step<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 37<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Now remove those light spots on the fingers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Step<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 38<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Pick a slightly darker colour than the fist and fill in areas that will be in shadow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Step<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 39<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"Step<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Boom! You did it, way to go. Feel free to play with colours and design and make it your own. Thanks for following along.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
