  • this process down in to simple steps for you. Miami Heat. I recommend that you pause the

  • video at the end of each step and get in the habit of looking at the reference image on

  • the screen at least once every five seconds. To make this as easy as possible, I uploaded

  • a print version of this lesson to my website. Go to http://merrillk.com and type in LeBron

  • in the search box. Or, if you are watching on youtube, click the link to the right. All

  • that you will need is a pencil and some paper to draw and a q tip or a blending tool to

  • do the shading in the second part of this video. Good luck! Here we go! This part has

  • 24 steps and it will be followed by a Lebron shading tutorial. Step 1- Make a rainbow shape

  • Step 2- Make another rainbow shape above the first, with a slightly higher arc. This will

  • be LeBron's headband. At the end of this step, it should resemble a banana shape. Step 3-

  • Make one more rainbow shape slightly above the top of the headband this will be Lebrons

  • hair. Step 4- Is a little tricky. Add the 2 shapes that you see. Notice that the one

  • on (your) left is slightly larger than the one on (your) right. Step 5- Add the backward

  • L shape that you see. Step 6- Add the shape that looks like the "little dipper" (pot shape).

  • Step 7- Add the next 2 lines. Notice that these two lines connect with the bottom of

  • the shape from step 4. Step 8- Add the 2 small rainbow shapes for the tops of Lebrons Eyes,

  • and take an extra second to notice how each end connects to form a new shape above the

  • eye. Step 9- Add 2 U shapes under each eye lid. Dont make circles though, leave the top

  • blocked by the upper eyelid. Step 10- Take a second to observe the gross outline of the

  • nose. Notice that the shape is about the same height as the forehead. Step 11- The next

  • lines that you see are the outline of Lebrons moustache. Notice that the 2 vertical lines

  • go DIRECTLY below the mid part of Lebrons eyes. Step 12- Next, put in Lebrons upper

  • lip. Notice that it looks like a flattened letter M. Step 13- Now put in his bottom lip.

  • It is shaped like a boat. The shape in between the 2 lips looks like the roof of a Pizza

  • Hut. Step 14- Now, do your best to put in the ear shapes. Notice that his head is turned

  • slightly, so the ear on your right will be a little smaller. Step 15- Try to observe

  • the line for his chin and jaw and then draw it. Step 16- Observe and add these lines for

  • the neck. Step 17- Add the shoulders Step 18- This v shape will be an important shadow

  • on the neck. Step 19- Add the W shape between the chin and lower lip. Step 20- Connect the

  • W shape with the bottom of each ear. Step 21- Add the nostrils Step 22- Add the bottom

  • line for the eye. Step 23- Add two V shapes under the eyes Step 24- For the final step

  • before we shade, notice the three shapes that are being added on each ear. urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags
