‎Greetings, art-loving Steemians. How are you? I hope you are fine and doing well. Welcome to another week of the Steemit Challenge. This time, I am going to participate in the ART challenge. ‎ ![IMG_20250510_162409_975.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPdgdAsNjjxnVaDA6YCn5snLRwM3ZJWmK146zmaByCzFb/IMG_20250510_162409_975.jpg) ‎This week is about to art of a cartoon character. When I practice the shape, I find that this is what I wanted to learn. But I found this difficult. Art is not an easy task. So I decided to draw an anime character. Not specific to any character, but whatever I can do. This is the beginning of my art journey. After finishing the drawing, I found this amazing. I believe that by the time I can do better. Well, here is my art and the steps on how I did it. # Step ‎ ## Step 1 ‎At first, I drew the facial structure. For that, I drew a vertical line and 3 horizontal lines. ![IMG_20250510_155452_844.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPpaGPyfwzrEVBPeVG4ZghXxqLBs447qDMGF4y3Zo7y2d/IMG_20250510_155452_844.jpg) ## Step 2 ‎I removed the line with minimal sight. Then, I draw eyes and a nose. ‎ ![IMG_20250510_155904_701.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPkuTekKnvJuykdkSeJgv9ydzMqmjC8oYTnr4FxvP7VZP/IMG_20250510_155904_701.jpg) ## Step 3 ‎ ‎I changed the shape of the nose. I am drawing an Anime Hero. So, an angular nose will be perfect. Then I drew the mouth shape. ‎ ![IMG_20250510_160211_450.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQc4FhkgVA59bgEKC8ZUkGiEUd5C9dcnzWMgGnwTSaSqo/IMG_20250510_160211_450.jpg) ## Step 4 ‎At this point, I complete the eyes and mouth. ‎ ![IMG_20250510_160542_261.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmZHfjXododuFDxGNzZ1he4UU6yYyq5J8grYwZ81di55Hd/IMG_20250510_160542_261.jpg) ## Step 5 ‎Then I drew the facial shape I wanted to give. ‎ ![IMG_20250510_160744_657.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmeBYzDfZ9rjXXwhMs3H5jQAC2LMqiHwbNrxdPnbPezRzU/IMG_20250510_160744_657.jpg) ## Step 6 ‎Then I drew the lower body of that character. ‎ ![IMG_20250510_161110_170.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPtXgfTX5d6zfaWFHeNiN7dGDsZBvvRugc7FM27GsJbh7/IMG_20250510_161110_170.jpg) ## Step 7 ‎Draw the hair to fulfill the character. Here it is! ‎ ![IMG_20250510_161248_241.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWCvmPSCCsG5iw22FF2MSizQwDeFct6yrFNH3WKgUKPux/IMG_20250510_161248_241.jpg) ‎ # Shading ‎I am bad at shading. As a newbie, I think this is okay to be bad. But this time I think I did quite good. At least the shading makes my drawing a little bit better. ‎ ![IMG_20250510_162409_974.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmc7hKFf9vCGsSEsMq8VwQgR6GwG99YyXgRRwQhMiHNSnF/IMG_20250510_162409_974.jpg) ‎Later, I tried to draw **Buzz Lighter** from Toy Story. In my opinion, it was a success. Thanks to @jesusnunez, now I think I can draw cartoon characters. Though I am struggling with angular faces, I can draw a bit of face-to-face facial structure. I am happy with that. I don't think I need to learn everything once. I will take time to do this. Thanks again. ‎ ![IMG_20250510_162513_878.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmczUUdUNUeVuXJCKsmjkCztRiDEMbL4k3khCQNncUAiGL/IMG_20250510_162513_878.jpg) I would like to invite @impersonal, @zulbahri, and @shiftitamanna to participate in this challenge.
