How to draw the main base of a character on paper.

First you start by sketching a circle, along with a simple vertical line in the center of the circle. When your done doing the circle and the line, sketch two other lines on where you want the eyes to be. 

Secondly you put another mini circle on where you want the neck to be. Put two other mini circles for the shoulders. Then connect three of the circles together with a curved line. 

After that you add eyes, and the mouth and nose inside those two lines. You then choose the style and your preference to what you want your character to look like. 

Finally draw the face and the clothes. If you run out of ideas on the clothes, just browse a new tap in a device or mobile. Then search up clothes, and turn it into a realistic drawing for your character. 

I hope you learned how to simply sketch the base of a character on paper.
