Hello! Today we created a new drawing lesson. As you can see, we will draw Darth Maul. Darth Maul is one of the most memorible characters in Star Wars.

Darth Maul has become a real symbol of the Saga after the release of the first episode, despite the fact that during the film said only a few words. He looks very formidable. With his red lightsaber and frightening tattoos he looks like the embodiment of evil. That’s why we decided to make the lesson of drawing Darth Maul.

Using the short line we draw the neck. Below the line of the neck we draw another line for the spine. Using gorizotal oblique lines to draw pelvis and shoulder lines. Using simple lines sketch out legs and hands like in our example.

So, let’s try to add some flesh to the figure of Darth Maul. But first we need to mark up the lines of the face:
