Drawing Basics: Female Characters

You've always wanted to draw characters. Nobody ever showed you how.

The idea
was always
there.

Drawing isn't a talent.
It's a language.
And nobody taught you to speak it yet.

Once you understand how characters are built, proportions, faces, poses, flow, everything changes. Every reference makes sense. Every character you imagine becomes something you can actually put on the page. This course is that foundation.

  • 🎯
    You've admired character artists and thought: "I want to draw like that." But every time you try, something feels off. Stiff. Flat. Nothing like what you imagined.
  • 🌀
    You've followed tutorials, but nobody gives you the full picture. One video covers eyes. Another covers poses. Nothing connects. Nothing sticks.
  • 🔀
    And you're not even sure where to start, so you end up not starting at all.

Hi, I'm
Sykosan.

2D Animator · Filmmaker · Illustrator · Teacher

I've been a professional 2D animator since 2004, working across advertising, feature films, video games, and music videos. My style blends Western and Japanese influences, Ghost in the Shell, Ghibli, Street Fighter, all the things that made me fall in love with animation.

For the past 4 years I've been teaching, to a community of 250K+ followers across platforms. I know exactly what it feels like to stare at the screen with no idea where to start. That's why I built the course I wish existed when I began.

Most drawing courses are built around one app. This one isn't. Because the fundamentals of character design work in every app. We cover the most popular tools, so you're never stuck waiting to buy something new to get started.

8 Modules.
One Clear Path.

 

This course includes 8 modules and over 6 hours of step-by-step lessons on drawing female characters. You'll explore everything from understanding the core apps and foundational proportion theory to beginner face studies, full-body poses, and my own personal approach to bringing characters to life.

The lessons follow a clear path: starting with a course overview and essential tools, then moving into facial features, anatomy, clothing and hair, colour and shading, and finally expressive character design. Each module is designed so you can pause, replay, and follow at your own pace.

This course is for anyone who wants to learn to draw female characters, whether you've never drawn a single line or you already sketch and want to finally make your characters look the way you imagine them.

All you need is a tablet and a computer, any drawing software (including free ones), and the curiosity to see your first character come to life.

What's inside

In This Course You Will Learn:

Module 1 & 2

Introduction & Cute Face

The foundation on which everything else is built. You'll get set up fast with the essential tools, layers, formats, brushes, and sketching techniques, then dive straight into drawing cute female faces. Contours, eyes, lips, nose, ears: each feature broken down step by step until the whole face comes together naturally.

Module 3 & 4

Upper Body, Hands & Lower Body

This is where the full character starts to take shape. You'll learn to sketch and pose the torso, shoulders, arms, and hands for natural upper body proportions, then move into hips, legs, and feet, combining everything into complete, dynamic full-body poses.

Module 5

Hair & Clothes

The details that give a character personality. You'll sketch different hairstyles and learn how to refine them into polished, consistent designs. Then you'll explore clothing construction, folds, fabric weight, and the small details that make outfits feel real and expressive.

Module 6, 7 & 8

Colours, Shading & Expressions

This is where your characters stop looking like flat and start looking alive. You'll master skin tones, colour matching, gradients, and textures, then move into light direction, cast shadows, highlights, and rim lights for a three-dimensional finish. The course closes with facial expressions, giving your characters the emotion and acting that make them truly yours.

Everything you need
to go from zero to DRAWING.

Fundamentals & Materials

We'll start by exploring the essential tools, apps, and techniques needed to draw female characters. Before your first sketch, you'll learn how to set up your workspace and use your software effectively, so nothing slows you down when inspiration strikes.

Practical Exercises

Theory is important, but real improvement comes from doing. You'll find plenty of exercises to practise faces, bodies, hair, clothing, expressions, and colour. I'll share tips and tricks from my own professional workflow to make your characters feel polished and full of life.

Lifetime Access

As a CSP user I appreciate when you demonstrate how to do these effects in CSP as well, it's very helpful as the direct photoshop commands don't always translate. Thanks again!
