How To Draw Sans Head

Drawing one of the most easily recognizable characters from the popular video game UNDERTALE, Sans’s head, can be exciting and easy at the same time. It doesn’t have to be intimidating. Drawing the skeleton brother of Papyrus is super doable if you break it down into distinct steps.
First, start with the eyes. Sans’s eyes are distinct, as they are red with white circles in them. Before you draw them, be sure to sketch out the general head shape first. This can be pretty simple; Sans’ main feature is his large cranium, so focus on drawing that first. Once you’ve got a basic head shape in place, use a pencil to lightly sketch in his two eyes. Then, using a black pen or marker, go in and draw the eyes, complete with red and white circles.
Next, you’ll need to draw the mouth. Sans’s mouth is usually drawn smiling, or with a smirk, with a few loose teeth sticking out. It’s an iconic look for the character. You’ll want to start by lightly sketching in the mouth with a pencil, then use a black pen or marker to draw it in. Be sure to make separate lines for the top and bottom lips.
Now that you have his eyes and mouth in place, you’ll need to draw in his other features. The most important one being Sans’ signature yellow triangular-shaped ‘eyebrows’. These two triangles should be drawn just above the eyes, completing his look. Now to add the last details to your drawing, draw in some of his iconic accessories. This includes the blue jacket, white scarf, and his round suspenders.
Once you’ve added in the final details, you’ll have finished drawing Sans’s head! Now you can get creative and add some color to your drawing. Take some time to add a little bit of color to the eyes, hair, and clothing. You can also add some coloring to the background; this could include adding some light blue colors to represent his nice and calm personality.
Now that you have everything in place and colored, you’ll be able to show off your amazing drawing of Sans! Don’t be surprised if people are in awe of your skills and passion for character art. Drawing Sans’ head is a fun and rewarding experience even for the beginning artist. So, get ready, get set, and get drawing!
Next, you’ll need to use pencil to shading the head. Start by shading the outline of the head, giving it a softer look. Then fill in the rest of the head using either a medium or light shading. Make sure not to go too dark on the shading, as this will make the drawing look unrealistic. Finally, go over the lines with a micron pen or sharpie to help the drawing stand out and create a realistic look.
After finishing the outlining, shading and outlining, it’s time to draw Sans’s iconic hair! Start by sketching the hair first, using a pencil to draw the basic shapes. Then use either a black pen or marker to outline the individual strands of hair. Sans’ hair is very distinct in its messy look, so take the time to draw out the individual strands. You can draw them connected or separated, whichever you like.
Finally, you’ll need to add some depth to the drawing. This can be done with highlights and shadows. Start by adding in some shadows, keeping it light and gradual. Then, use a white marker or chalk to add in some highlights. Add some highlights to the eyes, hair and clothing.
By following these steps, you will be able to recreate Sans’s iconic head with ease! This amazing drawing can be used a decoration in your home, or you can even frame it and hang it up in your room. Drawing Sans’s head can require a bit of skill and patience, but with these steps it is super doable! So, gather your supplies and get drawing!
