Description Some basic tricks and tips that help me whenever I draw the Legendary Warrior of Flame.

Tips Continued:

1) Everybody's hair gets messy in battle, regardless of the circumstances. Yes, it peeks over his mask occasionally. But for the most part it looks the same as it always does, because it's already a wild mane. (And yes, I JUST noticed that I misspelled 'peeks' on the paper.)

2) PLEASE keep in mind that his upper body (along with Lobomon's and Lowemon's) is roughly TRIANGULAR. The lower torso (down to his *ahem*) is roughly rectangular and tapers at the hips slightly, right where the top belt rests.

3) ...for the love of *insert whatever deity you want here*, DO NOT TRY THIS POSE IF YOU DON'T DRAW THIS GUY ON A REGULAR BASIS! I sh*t you not, I draw him every other day. Doing action poses for the move 'Pyro Tornado/ Salamander Break' is the hardest thing to do with Aguni. I didn't use a reference for this picture because if you look at the anime closely enough, you'd realize that most (not the ones where he's mostly covered by the enemy's shoulders and using forced perspective) of the ending poses are awkward. Seriously, use martial artist pictures, they're the best to work with, but even they can be really hard to draw.

4) Basic eye tips. Found a few errors that have a tendency to pop up in fanart, so I decided to address them. (Use my mini tutorial, it's BASED of how I draw Aguni's eyes, so it's very helpful here.)

5) The covering on his hand doesn't really show when his hand faces the viewer directly...which i kinda weird because it's bulky from the sides, but whatever. The 'ring' around his wrist (which I think is some kind of weighted brace) is actually square shaped. No I didn't exaggerate the size. Keep is slightly (and I mean, SLIGHTLY) curved, other wise the corners would hurt him if he ever accidentally hit his side.


I hope you find this helpful, enjoy.

---On another note, if I was to make another of these, which other of the original 5 Legendary Warriors (yes, I'm refering to the main dig-destined and I'm not counting Koichi, still haven't drawn Lowemon much) should I make one of these for?---

Digimon (c) Digimon/...Bandai?

Damn. I love you. I needed a tutorial for Agnimon-just the armor alone is hard- and this is perfect! And please make a Lobomon or Kazemon tutorial.... I have to draw them too.

Hero216 In reply to Lobomon199 [2012-10-15 22:31:06 +0000 UTC]

I'm currently having trouble with Kaze, so I'll probably do a Lobo.

Later when I'm better at drawing her, I'll make a Kaze one.
