BEGINNING
The guard is a simple figure of an adult. Start with a stick figure to get the height and proportions right. Do not draw the uniform or the hat at this time. The shoulders are wide and the waist is narrow the feet are spread slightly apart. The right arm, (which is on the viewer's left), is slightly bent. Draw a guideline for the weapon.
DEVELOP THE FORM
Around the stick figure draw the form of the man.
FACE
The hat covers everything above the eyebrows. The strap of the hat goes over the face and under the lower lip, so the chin shows below the strap. The eyes are straight ahead. Keep the face simple.
UNIFORM
The jacket has a white belt at the middle slightly above the waist. The collar has golden leaves on the sides but in the small drawing just do a triangle-ish shape and color black around it. The sleeves have square decorations going down at the cuff. There is a black background at the cuff. There are buttons to the right of the seam. The shoulders have golden decorations across the top. Many guards have medals won for bravery in combat, draw it as a circle with a triangle above and a thin rectangle above that. The pants are black.
HANDS
The hand holding the weapon is a line for the thumb that goes inward and back, the fingers is two lines that make it look like the letter C laying down. The other hand is mostly hidden by the sleeve but a line can show the fingers facing inward.
The shoes are very black and very shiny, so before you color them in outline a few shiny spots and make sure you leave them white.
