1<\/strong>: Drawing a person running isn’t as hard as it may seem. It just takes practice, patience, and understanding of the process. The first thing you need to do is take a look at pictures of people running. Take note of the details, such as clothing and facial expressions, as well as the body’s movement and posture. This will help you capture the essence of what running looks like. <\/p>\n

2<\/strong>: Next, choose an angle you like, and decide on how many figures you want to draw. For someone running, you should typically draw them in a 2:3 ratio. This means drawing two figure stands between the knees and the shoulders. Be sure to draw the body slightly curved, to give the running figure the look of forward motion. Remember to focus on keeping your figures in the same proportions, like the legs and arms being equal in length.<\/p>\n

3<\/strong>: Now it’s time to add some details! Start with eyes and the face, which show the utmost focus and determination of the person running. Put some facial expression into the eyes, like furrowed brows and a “grin of exertion”. Also draw the clothing that the person is wearing, like shorts and a shirt, or a dress and shoes. Don’t forget to add wrinkles and folds to the clothing to give it a life-like look. <\/p>\n

4<\/strong>: Finally, you need to add the finishing touches. A running person typically has their arms bent at the elbows, and their hands should move outwards so they form a V-shape with their arms. To give the figure energy, add some loose strands of hair blowing in the wind, and a few wisps of fabric floating around. Lastly, add the shadows and shading representing the muscle movement as the figure runs. <\/p>\n
