How To Draw Gohan Super Saiyan 3

Let's learn how to draw Gohan in Saiyan Armor from Dragon Ball today! Gohan (孫悟飯, Son Gohan) is the elder son of the series' primary protagonist Goku and his wife Chi-Chi, the older brother of Goten, the husband of Videl and father to Pan. Gohan is the first hybrid (half-Earthling, half-Saiyan) to appear in the series. (from dragonball.wikia.com)

Thanks a lot to Skyamors for request. ^_^

Step 1

As always all the blue and green lines are just construction lines and will be erased later so do not push on your pencil too much ^_^ I will try to be super efficient with the text so will only describe steps that require some explanation.
Make sure to leave enough free space on paper for next steps. You can see how much space you will need from the size of the paper on this picture.

If your goal is to become a real Mangaka and design your own manga characters make sure to try to draw Gohan in Saiyan Armor from memory several times. Always compare the drawing to the original and correct any mistakes you see. Do this till you are happy with the result. It doesn't have to look exactly the same, don't sweat the details. The point is that you get the main shapes right and that it looks good. This is the best way to build a huge library of manga shapes in your memory that you can use to draw and design your own manga characters ^_-.

Draw with passion! ^_^
