How to Draw a face: Doctor Who Regeneration

Doctor Who is a sci-fi tv programme produced by the BBC since 1963. The Doctor is a time traveller who can regenerate, in each regeneration the face changes. To mark the new Doctor Who regeneration in Twice Upon a Time I thought I would sketch a montage of all 13 Doctor Who regenerations and then show how to draw a simple face step by step.

How to Draw a Face: Step by Step for beginners

Step 1:
Draw an oval shape: We can improve this later. I use a 4B pencil.

Step 2:
Draw a horizontal line in the middle of your oval: A guideline for the eyes.

Step 3:
Draw a vertical line down the middle: So the face is looking straight at us.

Step 4:
Draw two simple eyes: Draw a line for the base of the nose and the middle of the mouth.

Step 5:
Draw the neck: Wider apart than the width of the eyes.

Step 6:
Draw two curves for ears: From the height of the eyes to the base of the nose.

Step 7:
Draw two eyebrows: just use a simple curved line.

Step 8:
Erase the two guidelines: We now have a basic face in proportion.

Step 9:
Draw a large circle in each eye for the iris.

Step 10:
Draw two small curves for the nostrils.

Step 11:
Draw extra lines for the eyelids, draw a small circle in each eye for the pupil.

Step 12:
Shade in the pupils as dark as you can. Shade the iris with a mid-tone and darken the eyelid line.

Try to look at the whole face, even when you are drawing the smaller details of the face.

Step 13:
Shade in the nostrils and darken the middle line of the mouth.

Step 14:
Using the side of your pencil, shade in the left hand side of the face.

Step 15:
Darken and thicken the eyebrows.

Step 16:
Use the side of an eraser to smudge your mid-tone shading.

Step 17:
Time to add a few details to the features of the face.

Step 18:
Draw some lines for the hair: Start with a few lines, showing the direction of the hairstyle.

Step 19:
We can now darken the jawline of the face.

Step 20:
We can add some shading on the left of the neck and to the hair.

You have now hopefully completed a beautiful portrait!

There are many ways to draw and many faces to draw! In this art video I show some of the tricks I have discovered over the years that I use in my own art and my art teaching.
