Lingjing - How To Draw A Ponytail // Straight + Curly, Front & Side View

Hi guys this is janani's younger sister lingjing and today, i'm here to teach you how to draw a ponytail, i'm going to draw a straight ponytail and then a curly one. To do this, you will need a pencil or a drawing tool, an eraser just in case you make mistakes, and this is optional, but also a black pen. If you want to outline and a color pencil, if you want to color first, you draw the face because you can't exactly have a ponytail without a face. It'S just a curved line that looks like a. U then we need to add the baby hairs they're. Just a couple of curved lines: that's around the face and then we need to add the ears too, and we also need to add the neck after we finish the baby hairs, the ear and the neck. We need to start working on the hair details i like to draw more lines down above the ear to make it seem like the light doesn't reach over there. Then, after we've completed that step, we are going to draw the top part of the head. It'S basically a large long line that looks like a semi-circle and connects the ears. After that, we are going to draw the hair part, there's lots of little curvy lines that go up the head, and then we are going to draw little lines at the top of the head to look to make it look like the hair has been pulled up Into a ponytail, then we are going to draw the hair tie and the top part of the ponytail, which also looks like a semi-circle. I like to draw lines on either side of the hair tie, because it makes it look like they're shadows. Then we are going to draw the ponytail going down the side of the head. I like to draw smaller lines at the bottom of the ponytail to make it look more like hair, then we are going to get started on the hair details, which means adding more lines to your ponytail, to make it look more like hair, like i said before, This is an optional set, but i'm going to outline my drawing with a black pen, i am using a very fine black pen making sure i don't mess up any of the features. Then after i have finished outlining, i am going to start coloring. This is also an optional step and you don't have to color, if you don't want to when i'm coloring i like to go over some places with a darker part to make it look like their shadows. I like to rub out any extra pencil marks that i've left and now your front view is done now. We need to start the side view we need to draw the face. It is a curved line with some bits poking out representing the nose and the mouth. We also need to draw the neck, which is a line that connected to the face, and then we start drawing the baby hairs. Add the ears too, don't forget the ears. Then we draw another curved line that goes down the head and the baby hairs that are at the back and the back of the neck as well. Then we are going to draw the hair tie and the top part of the ponytail. After that, we are going to draw the ponytail going down the side then, like we did before we are going to add the details for the hair, then we are going to start outlining and coloring again. You don't need to do this if you don't want to and then you're done now we are going to get sarah on the front view of a curly haired ponytail, like i did before we're going to draw the face, then we're going to draw the ears and The neck we're going to draw the baby hair, it's going to be very similar to what we did last time, except we are going to give it some more curl and volume. Then we are going to draw the shape of the head. Then we are going to draw the hair that was pulled up into the ponytail and then we're going to draw the hair part after that we can draw the hair tie and then we're going to draw the top part of the ponytail. Only this time. It'S not a semi-circle, it sort of looks like two hills: i'm going to try and give it a more volume because it's curly hair. Then after we finished, we are going to start on the hair details. Then after we finished, we are going to start outlining and coloring again. This is an optional step. So if you do not want to color or outline you don't have to do it, then we are going to start drawing the side view of the curly haired ponytail. It'S quite similar to the straight haired ponytail side view. So i'm not going to repeat the instructions again, i'm sure you can figure it out by yourself. Do now.
