Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below
You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1
To start, let’s draw the skeleton of our basketball player. Outline the head and a long line of the spine, on which we draw the shapes of the chest and pelvis. With the help of long lines outline the arms and legs. Note that our basketball player must be taller than the average person.
Step 2
On the top sketch two intersecting lines, this will help us to draw the details of the face later. Next, we outline the neckline and body. With the help of simple geometry, sketch the contours of the arms and legs. In the right hand draw a round ball.
Step 3
On top, outline the contours of the details of the face by directing the intersecting lines from the previous step. On top, we also outline the contours of the hairstyle and the ears. With the help of light lines, we outline the contours of loose clothes and shoes.
Step 4
Using bold and clear lines, carefully draw out the contours of the facial details (eyes, nose and smiley mouth), as in our example. Next, outline the lines of the hair and face. Make sure to remove all unnecessary guides from your face.
Step 5
Now move lower and work with the body details. Let’s start with the neckline. Next, use clear and bold lines to draw the contours of the blazer. Remove all unnecessary lines from the body and outline some folds of the fabric.
Step 6
With the help of smooth lines, draw outlines of the deltoids, biceps, triceps and biceps. Carefully draw the hands, the ball and the lines on the ball. Remove all unnecessary instructions from the arm.
Step 7
A pretty simple step where we will draw shorts. With the help of long lines draw many folds on the loose shorts. Take an eraser and remove all unnecessary guidelines from the shorts as shown in our example.
Step 8
In this step we will finish drawing the body of our basketball player. With the help of long, smooth lines, carefully draw the contours of basketball shoes and sneakers. Note that the basketball player’s body should not be too muscular and his muscles should not be prominent.
Step 9
The lesson on how to draw a basketball player is almost done, and we just need to make it bulky, adding some shadows. First, we need to find out where the light is coming from, then add shadows of different intensities.
