So You Wanna Draw That Subway Surfin' Dude, Jake? A Totally Not-Serious Guide
Ah, Jake. The fearless leader (well, one of them) of the Subway Surfers crew, forever dodging grumpy inspectors and collecting a suspicious amount of gold coins. But have you ever felt the urge to immortalize his beanie-clad glory on paper? Well, my friend, you've come to the right place! This guide will have you turning out Jake portraits like a pro (or at least someone who can vaguely identify facial features).
Materials You'll Absolutely Need (Except Maybe Not Really)
- A writing utensil of some kind: Pen, pencil, crayon – the choice is yours! Just avoid using a spork, it might get messy.
- Paper: Printer paper? Papyrus scroll? A napkin you found under the couch? As long as it can hold a drawing, you're good to go.
- An outrageous amount of confidence: This isn't brain surgery (although that would require a different kind of pencil). Believe in yourself and your artistic prowess, even if your artistic prowess mostly involves drawing stick figures with impressive hats.
Step 1: The Head (Because Seriously, Where Else Do You Start?)
- Draw a circle: Not too perfect, a slight wobble adds character. We're not robots here (unless you are, in which case, high five fellow machine!).
- Add some peepers: Two circles will do the trick. They don't have to be perfectly round – maybe Jake just stayed up way too late collecting coins.
- Don't forget the eyebrows! These bad boys can be straight, curved, angry, surprised – the world is your oyster (or, you know, eyebrow).
Subheading: Pro-Tip
- Feeling fancy? Add a couple of lines under each eye for those ever-important eyebags. After all, running from inspectors is tiring work.
Step 2: The Beanie, the Heart and Soul of the Outfit
- Imagine a sideways letter "U" on top of your circle-head. That's the base of the beanie.
- Connect the ends of the "U" with a slightly curved line. This is the top of the beanie, where all the coolest surfers keep their spare coins (probably).
- Feeling adventurous? Add a small bobble at the tip of the beanie. It's the cherry on top of this artistic sundae!
Step 3: The Rest is Up to You (But Here's a Helping Hand Anyway)
- The grin: A simple line or a toothy masterpiece, it's your call.
- The body: Feeling confident? Add a torso and limbs! Feeling less confident? Stick to a mysterious floating head – it adds an air of intrigue.
- The finishing touches: Don't forget Jake's signature scarf (a simple triangle will do) and maybe even a hoverboard if you're feeling generous with your artistic energy.
Congratulations! You've Officially Drawn Jake (Well, Kind Of)
Look at you, creating masterpieces! Now you can proudly hang your Jake drawing on the fridge (or maybe hide it from overly critical art enthusiasts). Remember, the most important thing is to have fun and unleash your inner artist, even if your inner artist prefers to stick to basic shapes. Happy drawing!
