Ciel Phantomhive and Sebastian Michaelis Ciel Phantomhive Drawing Easy

╔═════════════╗

Hey it's Lin. I'm back again with a black butler drawing still but this time, I'm drawing both Ciel Phantomhive and Sebastian Michaelis.

Also in this blog, I tried a different style of sketching so I hope you like it and learn from it. If you like stick drawings then read this and learn how to transform sticks drawings to (non-stick?) Ones xD

ＡＢＯＵＴ

Ciel is a kid who made a contract with a demln, Sebastian Michaelis. Their deal is to have Sebastian help Ciel on his revenge in return for his soul

Why am I drawing them?

Because when I watch the anime, I can't deny the fact that Sebastian is hot and both his and Ciel's chemistry (romantic and not) is interesting

ＳＫＥＴＣＨＩＮＧ

(Mechanical Pencil)

Simple shapes (Ciel)

1. The very first thing you have to do is draw a circle. The circle doesn't have to be perfect. You don't need to use a compass or template, you just have to use the pencil. What I did was that I started from the upper left part. We'll do this on our point of view (our left) and then start to draw the circle in a counter clockwise motion. (Clockwise is upper right, bottom, then upper left. Counter clockwise is upper left, bottom then upper right)

2. After drawing the circle you're gonna have to draw two lines for the neck. The first line will be on the left, we'll draw it vertically from the circle then downwards. As you can see the lin started at the middle part of the bottom circle. We're just gonna have them as tangents (Tangents are where a point meets another point). Then we're gonna do the second line which is on the right. And instead of a straight line, we'll use a slanting line. So an inch to the right from the first line, draw a slanting line from upper right to bottom left.

3. The next thing is you'll have to do is to draw a half rectangle. Like only the upper half portion of a rectangle. Draw this just below the two lines. This is gonna be used for the collar later on. After doing that, make a slanting line below the rectangle so we can use it as a guide for Ciel's posture.

4. For the fourth step, draw two slanting lines starting from both ends of the line we drew earlier for the posture. Draw the lines slanting inwardly. So the left line should start from the upper left then down to the bottom right and the right line should start from the upper right then down to the lower left. But make sure both lines won't meet. Since both lines didn't meet, you're going to connect them using a horizontal line.

──────☯──────

Circles, arms, and sebby

1. After the first part, we'll have to draw circles again. But this time it'll be smaller circles. Draw two small circles beside the end of the line. The line for the shoulders (the longest horizontal line) with these circles we can easily draw the arms later on and it'll also be a guide for the joints to connect the shoulder and arm. Also, don't make it too big or to far from the line. It has to look connected.

2. After those little circles draw the letter V below the left circle and draw the mirrored L below the right circle. For the V shaped line on the left circle, start from the circle then to the left side of it. So like the right line of the V should be the one below the circle. And as for the mirrored L. See this L? Yeah just turn it around or something. Well just like the one in the pic.

3. Andddd we're gonna do sebby! I think Sebastian is hot. I don't know why but I do. And I know some of you too. So with this step we're gonna start with his head. And since we're using basic shapes, we're gonna draw an oblong for his face since it's a bit long and thin compared to Ciel. Start drawing the oblong half an inch left to Ciel's face/circle.

4. Afterwards, draw two parallel lines for the neck similar to the ones we drew for Ciel's neck. And since he's wearing a suit we're going to draw a curve and connecting the to lines. This curve will be for the collar later on.

──────☯──────

Sebby's body

1. Now that you have his neck (that sounds wrong) you're gonna have to draw his shoulders and for that all you have to do first is draw a slanting line from the left side of his bottom neck then down to the bottom left part. As you're doing this just imagine a slumped shoulder.

2. After that, draw another small circle at the end of the slanting line. This circle will be where his arm and shoulder will meet. And this'll help later on.

3. From that circle, draw a slanting line. But not too slanting like about 190° and from there make a short slanting line. Short enough to meet with the end of the line from Ciel's arm.

4. The letter w. Since we connected the slanting lines and having Sebby and Ciel's meet, you'll be able to see a W. And if you didn't get what I've said earlier just imagine drawing the letter W that looks a bit tilted.

──────☯──────

Defining the face

1. Now that we're done drawing with the basic steps, we're gonna level up a bit a put more definition to the drawing. In this step, first thing were gonna do is that we're going to have to draw a curvy line from the upper left corner and down to the lower right. Now the use of the circle we made is to serve as a guide for the direction of the curvy line. Following the direction of the circle, draw the curvy line. Next is the right side. Do the same thing you did on the left to the right but make the line shorter than the left. Then draw a curvy line in the face just centimeters away from the chin or v line.

2. Draw the same curvy shape but a bit longer just about an inch above the first curvy line. The first line was for that little detail under the mouth and of course the second one is for the mouth.

3. Add one more horizontal line. Draw this an inch above the second line. This third line will be used for the nose later on in the sketching. Also this line is the longest of the three and make sure it's curvy and parallel to the one below.

4. Using the third line, we're going to draw the eye patch. The first thing is you have to trace along the line for like an inch and stop there. Put a little flick as well pointing upwards.

──────☯──────

Facial features

1. After the flick, you'll see that the flick is somehow in the middle of the face. So draw a vertical line in the middle, from top to bottom. One way you'll know that the line is in the middle when the line you draw hits the flick. Like if it touches the flick you'll know it's in the middle. Also your vertical line shouldn't be straight but curvy as well, opening to the right side.

2. Now you have both your vertical and horizontal line, start adding the facial features. The first thing is the nose. Starting from the middle of both vertical and horizontal line, draw a really short line for the nose and then add a little thing a centimeter away from the line. Then same thing for the mouth, start at the middle and on the line and make your way down making a semi circle then stop, and make a straight line from the end to the middle. For the last line, add that little thing or effect they put under the mouth

3. Add another horizontal curvy line parallel to the other ones just an inch away from the nearest line. This line will be for the eye and if you follow the line you'll see that the line ends at some point/part of the ear. Use this as a guide. And also this line will be at the center of the eye. Not above or below.

4. For the eye, start with a small curvy line just above the eye guide (the line mentioned on step 3) after that, draw an even smaller line below the eye guide and then draw the eyeball. Easy as this and also, if you don't like how your drawing looks just like I don't like this, you can adjust it later on when we move on to outlining.

──────☯──────

Eyes and hair

1. After drawing the basic eye (without the details) we'll add a bunch of stuff to it as well drawing the eye line, and eyebrows. For the eyes, draw a smaller circle inside the eyeball. This will be the pupil. Then color/fill the pupil in. But you have to draw the circle from the tope of the eye then down to more than halfway through. But don't let the circle touch the bottom part of the eyeball. It'll be almost like it's floating.

2. For the hair, all you have to do is follow the reference pic. And I should tell you that Ciel's hair is smooth not spiky nor curly so all you gotta do is relax your grip on the pencil and follow the reference also if it's hard for you to know the length of the hair (vertically) just draw a medium circle from the eye guide.

3. Also just above the upper part of the eye, the thick curve line, draw a thin line parallel to it. This'll be the eye line. And the eyebrows. Just half an inch above the eye line. And continue with Ciel's eye patch. Draw two parallel lines from the eye patch then up to the hair. This'll be the strap.

4. Just trace the previous sketch for the neck and then make this almost v like shape for the collar. But do it as if it's facing the rights side since Ciel's whole body is facing to the right.

──────☯──────

Clothes

1. After making that V shape facing right, the next thing you have to do is make a curve line just below it. The opening of that line should face upwards/towards the v shape. After that start from the left side of the curve then make a vertical line. Just a really short line. We will be using that later on. Next is this weird shape just in the middle. This is the middle part of the bow so it's drawn like that. There isn't really much to explain about it other than just to copy the shape of it but if you want a tip then don't make the middle of the bow to big or else Ciel might look like a cow. We wouldn't want that.

2. After that, draw the ribbon. Just follow the reference picture for the style of the ribbon. But you can do it in your own way as well. In my case, I just followed the reference picture and did my thing. Also there are parallel lines just below the ribbon, which is where the buttons or something are. They have these designs that are really classy but since it's just the sketching you can simply just draw parallel lines.

3. After the second step, start to draw the shoulder indications. These shoulder indications are the tiny lines to emphasize that it's gonna be a shoulder later on but since we just started, simply draw a little slanting line from the upper left near the collar and then down to the lower farther left. Do the same for the right side but it should be mirrored from the left side.

4. Then start to draw the chest. Or at least the outline of it when it's on side view. This is actually pretty easy just put a bit of a distance from the drawing and start drawing a long slanting line. The slanting line starts from the upper right to the lower left.

──────☯──────

Limbs

1. This time, we're gonna do the right arm first. With the shoulder indication, you can start from there and make a curve line then slop it down. But stop after a bit because that's where we're gonna put sebby's hand.

2. Sleeves. For the sleeves, all you need to do is draw a slanting line from sebby's hand then down to the lower right and make another turn for the elbows make a half square for the elbows. And continue on with the rest of the sleeve making a narrow-wide line.

3. Hand. For the hand, you can see Ciel's ring and so we'll have to give emphasis to it and make the ring big. Also for the fingers, if you're having a hard time, then I am as well ;-; but I'm try my best right now to at least help you in some way. For me when drawing this I thought more of the shape of the whole hand rather than each finger. Cause if you do that there's a possibility it might end up looking weird. Like an aliens fingers.. Or head.

4. Hips. The last step for this is his hips and since Ciel is facing at one way the hips would be more visible. Plus the fact that his shirt is the kind that is a bit loose at the bottom. So this shirt is tucked in so draw two mirrored slanting lines for the hips as shown in the picture.

──────☯──────

Other arm

1. Now for the left arm. After drawing the right arm, I believe some of you already get the pattern on how to do it. So doing the same thing with the sleeves, let's draw the left arm. With this, Ciel's left arm is actually held by Sebastian so we'd have to make the arm look like how it is on the picture.

2. Now the next thing to do is draw the arm. Like literally the arm and not the sleeve. In this step, the arm is like poking out of the loose sleeve so draw two parallel lines making the right line longer then the left. Then draw the shackles that would soon have chains connected to Sebastian.

3. After that, we'll have to do Sebastian's right arm which is mostly covered by Ciel. So to do that we just draw a slanting line from Ciel's hair until his shoulders near the hand that's holding his arm.

4. For the fourth step, draw Sebastian's left hand. With this we start drawing his glove that's covering Ciel's left hand. The glove should be a bit bigger since Sebastian has big hands. And then his wrist which we'll draw his cuffs and half his sleeve (lower sleeve)

──────☯──────

Sebby

1. Now for drawing Sebastian, using the oblong shape guide, start drawing his face shape like what we did with Ciel except sebby's face is longer and thinner so we're drawing a V like shape for that but the right side would be shorter than the left.

2. Using the lines, we'll make face guides. For that, let's draw two curvy lines for the face in which having half an inch distance for each line from the chin,to the first line then the second lime. With this we'll use it for the mouth later on.

3. Next is the third line. Draw it in the same way. One long curvy line an inch above the second line and make sure it's parallel to the other. This line will be used as a guide for the nose.

4. Then draw the facial features. For the nose, do it on the third line and make sure it's small and cute. For the mouth make sure it's long totally contradicting the nose. And that little thing below the mouth which I will now call mouth thingy (I suck at names)

──────☯──────

Sebby's facial features

1. For the rest of Sebastian's facial features, we'll start with the eyebrows. And let me tell you, his eyes and eyebrows are really sexy. Well he is a demon and he's gotta have that sexy badass aura and face. So like I said, it's because of that that his eyebrows are on flick/fleek xD draw it like it's pointy

2. Next is for the eyes. But we have to make guides for them cause for me and some people, eyes are easy to mess up with @.@ like the feeling that when you draw the other eye beautifully and then you try it with the other one and it looks completely alien xD so just below the eyebrows, draw two parallel lines for the eyes and draw a vertical line in the middle.

3. And for the third step, add another line. This line is for the middle so that when you draw both left and right eyes will be leveled.

4. And lastly for this, draw the upper eye, the curvy thick line on the first line then next is the bottom line for the eyes. Apply this on both eyes. Draw a circle for the eyeballs, then draw the pupils with small circles.

──────☯──────

Sebby's clothes

1. For his clothes, we'll start with the collar which will have chains that are connected with Ciel. For the collar draw two parallel semi circle lines just below the base of the neck

2. Then we'll put the details for the collar. The collar is like a belt so we'll have the metal part of the belt. Just draw a mini square for that.

3. Now for his tie, first, draw a little curvy triangle below the collar from both sides, draw two curvy lines making it look like a tie. And for the v part of the suit, just simply draw a big V at each side of the tie.

4. We'll then draw the shoulders and arms. For the shoulders just draw slopes on each sides until it looks like a shoulder than for the arms use slanting lines going down. For the left arm, sebby's holding Ciel's hand. So since there's already half the sleeve all you gotta do is connect.

──────☯──────

Wings

1. Finally the last part of the sketch, the wings. We're gonna draw Sebastian's demon wings but before that we'll have to finish the rest of his clothes.

2. All that's left is Sebastian's lower body. And the suit on this part is pretty easy to draw so all you have to do is draw the hops with slanting lines as seen in the picture and then make these wrinkles on his suit.

3. For the first layer of the wings, make a cloudy like line on both sides and scribble beneath it. You can do any time of scribbling. It's your choice.

4. And to finish the wings, draw the rest of the layers like how we did on the first step and scribble you heart out! Actually there are three layers all in all just placed at both sides (Sebastian and Ciel's sides)

ＯＵＴＬＩＮＩＮＧ

(Technical Pen 0.5-0.8)

1. For the outlining, just simply trace all the pencil marks and if you want you can adjust it. Also, when adjusting be sure to visualize what you're about to draw since you're already using your pen and you can't erase that. So the firdt thing I outlined is Ciel's head. This way I can continue with the other parts.

2. For the second step as you can see, I finished outlining Ciel. And just a tip take a look and check the finished outlined part just to see if you've made any mistakes that can also be adjusted later on.

3. I finished outlining everything but you can still see the pencil marks right? Well that's because of my adjustments and we can just erase all the unnecessary things. Also I didn't outline the effects of the wings because I prefer it that way but if you want you can outline it but make sure the darkness or lightness is in contrast to the characters or else it would look really weird.

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

ＥＲＡＳＩＮＧ

(Eraser)

For erasing, I erased all pencil marks except the ones on the wings (reason mentioned above) and a tip for erasing is that don't swipe your paper to get rid of the fallen rubber from the eraser because if you do this your drawing might smudge and trust me that's gonna ruin the whole thing. So if you don't want that try blowing all those bits away (careful with your saliva @.@) or tilt the paper to let those bits fall.

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

ＣＯＬＯＲＩＮＧ

(Colored Pencils)

Skin and clothes

1. Here on the first step of coloring, you have to grab your peach colored pencil and start coloring on the skin lightly. We're doing this lightly with a relaxed grip cause we'll be doing a darker one later on for the shadows. For now, this is just the base color or the highlights.

2. Now this is when we'll darken out the peach, put more force in coloring and shadow the parts yoi see in the reference picture or in my case, anywhere I felt like it. But don't forget that most of the time, shadowing is at one side and make it uniformed or it'll look scattered @.@

3. Take out your technical people! Cause we're about to do inking (my favorite) with the use of the pen we'll first fill out Ciel's eye patch.After doing that we'll have to ink his suit! I really like what I did here cause instead of coloring it while a lighter color and shading with a dark one, I did the opposite. I filled most of the spaces with black using the pen a left a few lines and spaces uncolored. So yeah for me it looks pretty cool I guess

4. For the fourth step, the last thing I inked is the bg effects. The falling feathers are pretty coll effects (my opinion) and I decided to fill them out so they actually look like feathers falling (not)

──────☯──────

Eyes and clothes

1. Now coloring both Sebastian and Ciel's eyes is easy cause in this drawing, their eyes are really small so just a little flick of the pencil and I finished it. And since I wanted to, we'll color Ciel's eyes first. We'll use the lighter shade of blue as base then layer it up with the darker one. Just coloring it on top of the other.

2. Then we're on to sebby's eyes in which we'll use apricot (?), black and red. So I started eith coloring it apricot then I thought well it looks okay but then I looked at the reference drawing and saw that there was a bit red so I added it and then he looked like a vampire so I added a bit black so it wouldn't be too red and ta da! It's finished.

3. I almost forgot. We have to color Sebastian's hair. So get that pen again and we'll start inking, filling up spaces then leaving a few for the highlights.

4. For Ciel's clothes, we'll use a gray colored pencil and do the shadowing. For the shadowing we'll color most parts of the clothes and then leave it as that. If you want you can follow the shadowing in the reference picture like I did or if you'd rather have your own style then you can.

──────☯──────

Accessories, clothes and hair

1. For the accessories, like the gloves, chains and all that sorts. So we'll start with gloves. Use the silver colored pencil or a darker gray for the gloves. Just simply color it.

2. Collar. For their color, I used brown and colored it. Darken up the shadowing parts and blend the light and dark colors also mixing them up with each other. I chose this color cause I saw a brownish color on the reference picture

3. For the lines of his inner shirt (the one with lines) I used the gray colored pencil, and only to shadow a few parts and trace the lines for the inner shirt. I just decided to do this for the heck of it.

4. Lastly. Finally. Gah. Lol. The last part to color is Ciel's hair. On the reference picture, Ciel's hair is actually blue or dark blue. But since I'm color blind and indecisive I just colored it white gray. And then I colored almost all the spaces on the hair but then left a few spots just for the highlights of it. But all in all in this blog, you really don't have to follow through. Just make your owns style if you want to. That's all :blush:

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

ＳＩＧＮＡＴＵＲＥ

I did a lettering on the name black butler just to give it a little pizzas or something (All I read was pizza) and of course, never forget to put your name, pen name, or signature so people won't doubt you or steal your drawing. You can do it in different ways, fonts or styles.

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

ＦＩＮＩＳＨＥＤ

And it's finished! Go grab your blanket and lay down and sleep. Kidding, cause for me it was a bit tiring than usual since I used a different technique this time but it was cool as long as I get to help you guys. Oh and when you're done with your drawing, you can do lots of creative stuff with it like take a picture of it with a good view or with the actual anime character. All that's important is to have fun.

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃

Phew that took me a while but I hope it was okay or good enough. Also the next drawing tutorial will be on Mei Misaki from the anime Another so if you're interested you can check out my page from time to time or follow and stuff. Well only if you want to. But all in all, I hope this blog helped.
