gojo sideprofile GONE WRONG

Drawing Gojo Satoru’s side profile can be quite challenging, especially when facing right, as I realized while trying for the first time. I struggled to capture the unique angles and expressions that make his side face so recognizable in Jujutsu Kaisen manga and anime. What helped me immensely was using actual manga panels as my drawing references. By carefully observing the shapes of Gojo's jawline, hair flow, and eye positioning in the manga side profiles, I was able to mimic these features more accurately. Starting with pencil sketches allowed me to correct proportions easily before finalizing the drawing. For beginners or anyone interested in anime drawing, focusing first on easier characters can build confidence, but don't shy away from attempting complex faces like Gojo’s. Breaking down the profile into basic shapes (circle for the head, triangle for the nose bridge, etc.) simplifies the process. Also, practicing multiple iterations helps internalize distinctive facial features. I encourage fellow artists to explore different angles of Gojo’s side face from both manga references and fanart, which offers diverse styles to inspire your interpretation. Sharing your progress on platforms like Lemon8 is a great way to connect, learn feedback, and improve together. Ultimately, persistence and using reliable references made the difference in overcoming the difficulty I had with drawing Gojo’s side profile facing right. Hopefully, my tips encourage others to tackle this iconic character drawing with renewed confidence!
