Description
By popular demand, the next in the mini tutorial series is Lobomon, the Legendary Warrior of Light (who gets stuck with a derp...I'm not dropping that).

Tips Continued

1) By far, I find him the most difficult to draw (which is funny, because a lot of people find drawing Agunimon the hardest). There are so many friggin' details to miss, so you have to keep your eyes open. They even mess his design up in the cartoon...dead serious. Use multiple references when drawing him, and ONLY USE THE CONSISTENT DETAILS.

2) Lobomon's helmet WILL be the bane of your existence whilst drawing him. It's just a fact of life. So I included this little diagram that will save you a horrendous amount of trouble. The green lines are his basic head/facial structure. The Black lines are the basic construction of the helmet. DO NOT MAKE THE FOLLOWING MISTAKES:
-do NOT make the helmet too much bigger than his head, it looks weird
- do NOT raise it too much from the outer line of his head shape, other wise your eyes, mouth, and face in general will look awkward
-do NOT place the helmet's top right on the head's out line, it is NOT a part of his head, and it 'shrinks' the rest of his face.

3) Posing for the move 'Lobo Kendo/ Licht Sieger' is fairly simple. Basic slash arcs are used; DO NOT USE SAMURAI/NINJA PICTURES FOR REFERENCES.
- Another thing to take notice of: Like Agunimon and Lowemon, his upper torso is triangular, and the lower half (down to his *ahem*) is a rectangle. KEEP IN MIND that he is MUCH thinner than Agunimon (although, probably not as flexible; I've yet to see him flipping and twisting around as much as Aguni). Lobo is limber, but his leg armor balances the design by providing a larger base.

4) Lobomon's eyes are a trapezoidal shape, and are actually quite simple to insert to the helmet's intersection of the nose bridge and cheek covers.

5) Well, I accidentally drew the wrong arm, but besides that, the image is totally correct. (Four references guys, remember what I said about the CONSISTENT DETAILS.) the Blaster used for the move 'Howling Laser/ Licht Kugel' is CLEARLY VISIBLE above his wrist guard/brace. If it wasn't, then it would blow off his hand instead of hitting the enemy.

(On another note, anyone else wonder why he's German if his digi-destined is Japanese? I mean, I understand Zoe's Italian, but I don't see how some one name KOJI MINAMOTO could possibly be German.)

Well, I hope this helps guys!

Lobomon (c) Digimon/ (Bandai and Toei?)

Which of the remaining original digi-destined (excluding Kouichi and Lowemon) should I do a tutorial on next?
