Q&A for How to Draw Adolf Hitler

You might be doing a report for school that requires illustrations, or maybe you're writing a comic book that includes a scene about Hitler. There's nothing wrong with drawing someone.

No! Shading can make your drawing look even better by adding depth to it.

You can draw Adolf Hitler with other Nazi Party/Axis members, such as Mussolini, Hirohito, Himmler, etc.

Yes; it was said that his pale blue eyes were hypnotizing.

Of course. There is nothing wrong with that and in many cases it is preferable especially if you need to meet the standards under German law.

Determine where the light is coming from. Highlight the areas of the face and clothes that the light directly hits with a light color or eraser. Shade the areas blocked from the light with a darker color or with more pressure. Also highlight the high areas (tip of nose, shoulders, tops of cheeks) and shade the lower areas (neck, beside the nose). Blend your shading and highlights with a blending tool, such as a blending stump. If you don’t have a tool, you can fold up a tissue into a small square and use that. Your drawing will now look much more realistic!
