How to Draw A Superhero – Let's get Started!

Step 1

For this guide on how to draw a superhero, we will be showing you the basics of a template for a character, and as we move on to later steps you will be able to personalize aspects to make your own character!

For now, we shall start with the head of the superhero. This drawing can be quite tricky, so it's recommended to use a pencil to draw first before going over in pen later.

For now, simply draw in the face shape and draw in the hairstyle as seen in the image. You could also use photos of other hairstyles you like if you want to personalize your hero a bit more!

Step 2 – Next, draw in a neck for your superhero

We'll be taking this superhero drawing slowly to make sure that you don't get stuck on any parts of it!

With this in mind, simply draw two vertical lines down from the jaw of the face that you drew in the previous step.

Step 3 – Now, start drawing the arms and torso

In this third step of our guide on how to draw a superhero, we have a bit of a tricky step, so be sure to follow the reference image closely while taking it slowly.

Drawing down from the neck, carefully draw the shoulders sloping downwards.

Then, looking closely at the reference picture, draw in the arms while paying close attention to the shapes of the various muscles as they appear in our example.

Once you're happy with the arms then you can draw in the torso and waist of your superhero.

This is a step that would especially benefit from using a pencil first, and it might take some practice! We know that you can do it, though, so don't give up!

Step 4 – Next, draw in the face for your superhero

The classic superhero style has a rather simple and pared-back usage of lines for faces. Using the reference image for help, you can draw in a face for your superhero drawing.

This may look complicated at first glance, but it is actually made up of pretty simple lines. You can also change the lines a bit for different facial expressions if you would like!

Step 5 – Let's give your superhero some legs

The legs that we will draw for step 5 of this guide on how to draw a superhero may also look a bit complicated, but if you refer to our example picture closely, you can see that they are composed of some fairly basic shapes.

There will be a somewhat triangular shape below his waist, and then you can draw his legs coming down from that shape.

Once you're happy with how the legs look, simply draw in some details like a belt, collar and sleeves for your hero's outfit.

Step 6 – Draw a cape and some details

Your superhero drawing is really coming together now! For this step, you can use some straight lines down from the shoulders and behind the arms to give your hero a cape.

Then use some thin lines by the elbows, chest and knees as shown in the image for some muscle definition.

Then, we have drawn an example of a logo on his chest, but you can get creative with this step!

Maybe you could design a logo of your own to create a new superhero? What theme will your hero have? You can show us by using the logo that you design!

Step 7 – Now, draw in some final details

In this step, we shall add some final details before moving on to the coloring. You can draw in some lines on the midriff to add more muscle definition to your character.

Then, you can finish off the details with some lines for the tops of his boots and cape.

Step 8 – Now finish off your superhero with some color

Your superhero drawing is now almost finished! Now comes the fun part of coloring it in, and you can really show us how creative you can be here!

We chose a color scheme for our example, but you should feel free to use your own colors, as this guide is all about creating a superhero of your own!

What powers would this superhero have? If you have a theme in mind, then you could color him in to suit that theme.

I think that colored pens would help to give this image a great comic book feel to it, but any art mediums that you love would look amazing!

Your Superhero drawing is complete!

You have reached the end of this guide on how to draw a superhero, and you should be very proud of your drawing!
