Blanka - Street Fighter - Pencil Drawing Tutorial

You'll probably get a shock when you see him, and especially when you play against him:

Blanka is one of the most famous characters of Street Fighter, and the one preferred by novices of the game, due to the fact that his signature move, Electric Thunder, is achieved just by mashing on any of the punch buttons.

There was always that kid, when playing Street Fighter 2, that would always choose Blanka and did one electric shock after another; not a very good strategy....

He's not very tall and he has short legs, but his upper body is incredibly developed, his arms are long and muscular.
His posture is very hunched over, he almost walks like a Gorilla.

At this point it kind of looks like a troll , let's work on the layers of color. We will add some yellow to the green part, and some red to the orange hair. We will use the eraser to create the light spots, and dark green to go over the shadows on the body.

Ok, we're almost there. Now it depends how many details you want to add. I tried putting in a few veines, but you have to have a sharp eraser, and it's very hard to get all the curves and shadows. Remember that the belly of muscles is the light spot, while the sides are deeper in and darker.

Thanks to all, and 'till next time.
