How to Draw Rapunzel
"Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair!" Rapunzel is the main character of a classic fairy tale written by the Brothers Grimm. This tutorial will show you how to draw Rapunzel from the 2010 Disney computer-animated film Tangled.
Steps

Rapunzel (Close-Up)

Near the topmost center of the paper, draw a large circle for her head.

Attach a U-like shape below the circle for her chin and jaw.

Draw a slightly diagonal vertical line at the center of the circle, going towards where the U-shape is. To this line intersect two perpendicular line as a guide to her eyes and other face details. Next, draw an irregular box attached at the very right side of the paper. Attach two curved lines to connect the head to this box. To the top side and corner of the box, draw a circle for one of her shoulders. Draw also a similarly sized circle at the low corner nearest to the neck.

Using the guide lines for the face, draw her excited, wide eyes; then her eyebrows, nose, lips and ears. You may start outlining her forehead.

On the irregular box and shoulder circles, start tracing her neck, body and dress details.

Draw Rapunzel's long flowing hair, drawn down by gravity.

Erase unnecessary lines.

Color the drawing as desired (with her hair preferably golden blonde).

Rapunzel's Full Body

Draw an oval with guidelines for the head. These should be vertical for the mouth and horizontal for the eyes, meeting in the middle where the bridge of the nose will be.

Sketch the body/body position using geometric shapes. Use a vertical rectangle for the torso and a horizontal rectangle for the lower body, connected by a curved line (like a spine). Draw straight lines for the arms and legs (with circles for joints) and rectangles for hands and feet. Rapunzel is slim but has a fairly unique body shape, so try to get your early sketching done effectively.

Create the shape of the body on the sketched “skeleton." Draw the shape of the face and ears, with the rest of the body on the “skeleton." Have the skirt legs--you don't even need the lower body because it's covered by the dress.

Make the face. Draw the eyes, nose, and mouth following the guidelines. Make eyebrows above the eyes. Carefully erase the guidelines once you've done this.

Cover the body with clothing. Draw the long hair and add details, mostly to her hands, and outfit. Put a flower behind her ear like Flynn Rider does in the movie, or sketch in her devoted companion Pascal the chameleon on her shoulder. It's all about what you choose to do with the drawing, so use your imagination!

Outline the drawing with black ink. Make a modular line (passing from thin line to thick line and vice versa) to give it a more realistic look.

What's your reaction?
