How to Draw Kazuya Mishima

We have prepared a new tutorial on how to draw Kazuya Mishima – a main character in Tekken, a famous video game series. He is also the son of Heihachi Mishima, the main antagonist in the Tekken story.

How to draw Kazuya Mishima step by step

Step 1: Sketch the basic figure

First, work on the stick figure. Without it, we will not be able to draw the muscles, clothes, and other parts of the character correctly. Kazuya has an athletic body. You can view our tutorial on drawing classic Superman, since the same principles for constructing a stick figure also apply to Kazuya.

Step 2: Add volume to the body

Add volume to the entire figure. First, sketch large circles for the shoulders, then connect them to the head. Use one diagonal line on each side to connect these parts of the body. Construct the upper arms and forearms with cylinders. The torso should taper toward the waist and widen toward the shoulders because Kazuya has a broad chest and strong back.

Then outline the groin area. This area resembles a triangle.

Next, sketch the legs. The thighs extend from the junction of the torso and legs to the knee joints. They are formed by strong, wide muscles, including the two muscles on the front of each thigh that are visible from this angle. The thighs narrow sharply toward the knees.

The shins extend between the knee joints and feet. They form a characteristic thickening near the middle of each leg and then taper smoothly toward the feet.

Also, add two guidelines to Kazuya’s face. The horizontal line indicates the position of the eyes, while the vertical line marks the center of the face.

Step 3: Add the facial features

Sketch the basic facial features. Note that Kazuya’s head is tilted downward. The positions of the eyes and ears relative to each other should emphasize this angle. Kazuya should appear to be looking sideways at the viewer.

Step 4: Refine the face and hair

Refine the facial features. Add numerous wrinkles between the eyes and several more beneath them. Sketch the hair with strokes extending from the roots toward the tips.

Step 5: Outline the torso and pants

Work on the character’s body. Define the abdominal muscles and add oblique lines along the ribs. Continue by drawing the pants around the shape of the legs. The thighs are wider than the calves, so the pants fit more tightly around the thighs.

Step 6: Detail the muscles and fists

Refine the character’s torso. Use short, smooth lines to draw the muscles of the arms and upper body of Kazuya Mishima. Finish by drawing the hands clenched into fists, and do not forget the patterns on the gloves.

Step 7: Finish the pants and feet

Draw the feet of Kazuya Mishima and complete the outline of the pants.
