The sharingan is a word that means "mirror wheel eye" and is a doujutsu in the anime Naruto. This article will show how to draw this.
Steps
-
Draw a roundish almond shape, which will be the eye.
-
Draw a large circle in the eye, which will be the iris.Advertisement
-
Draw a smaller, black-filled circle in the middle. This will be the pupil.
-
Draw a very thin or dashed line circle between the circles for the pupil and the iris. This will be the line that the tomoe will rest on.
-
Draw the tomoe- which little circles with a small curved tail. Make sure they are smaller than the pupil, and evenly space them on the middle circle. The number of tomoe in the Sharingan indicates how powerful it is, with the most powerful having three tomoe.
-
Add shading and value to the eye and iris to give it a realistic look. Ink all of the lines you wish to keep, and erase those you do not.
-
Color it if you wish. Color the iris red and the pupil and tomoe black. The thin middle circle that the tomoe are on should be dark red.

QuestionHow do I know when a marker or felt pen is good for my work?CasMangaArtCommunity AnswerMake sure the marker/felt pen does not create a messy or streaky texture when you use it. If it does, it might ruin your drawing.
-
QuestionDo I fill in the iris?Community AnswerFill it in. Without filling it in, it would look like contact lenses.
