How I draw kisses!

A quick tutorial/cheat sheet on how I draw kisses!! I’m going to assume you already know how to draw a head and how to angle it, because that’s an entire procedure in itself. I’m going to focus on mainly the lips and also try and tackle some common mistakes when you’re first starting out. 

Pursing the lips

So this is boring but crucial. If you don’t purse, their is no real kiss (take notes) bc placing your lips on top of someone else’s is not how you kiss… The most important part are the corners of the mouth, especially from the side view, because that’s what changes the most. 

The actual kissing yeee

Let’s start do a basic side view kiss on the lips. And believe it or not, I think this one is the hardest!  

Think about which parts of the face are going to be in front of the other! This can take some time to get the hang of, but once you get that down it’s easy. Also, focus on getting the heads at the right distance and angle. A common mistake is drawing them too close. 

The Lightning Shape: 

Still keeping in mind which part of the line is “Red’s” upper lip and which part is “Blue’s” lower lip, play around with the shape of the lightning. Very subtle changes can have a very strong impact! I usually go by feel, so take your time, but here are some things to look out for: 

Details squishing etc.

So yeah once the lightning shape looks good, I usually add details and squish parts of the face that will touch. Which usually includes the noses, but from this angle they won’t squish unless you intend on making nice big noses <3. By now it should look something like this: 

You don’t have to add the corners of the mouth! I usually do when I want to show that the character is smiling. 

One technique used a lot in anime/manga + other cartoony art styles, is fading lines where two soft-ish objects press hard against each other. The picture above explains it. 

Common mistakes

Getting down the crucial kissing part of fanart is hard and you will mess upp SO MANY TIIIIIIMES, but you learn from your mistakes, so don’t be discouraged. There are some things though that I frequently see when people draw kisses that makes it look awkward and stale, many of which I used to do myself. Here are some examples:

Try your best to avoid these. Most of the mistakes have little to do with the lips and more to do with the angle of the head. So getting that down before you move on to the lips is important. 

¾ view Kissing

There are not a lot of angles where you actually see the lips meet (or at least not that I can draw…). Depending on how the heads are placed in relation to each other, you may or may not see the lips in a ¾ view. The way I have demonstrated is done in a way that the nose will bump into the other’s upper cheek. 

Aaand that’s about it! These things will make more and more sense the more you draw them. At first it can seem very hard with so many things to keep track of, and it is, but practice makes perfect! 

Rule of thumb: does the angle and position of the heads make sense? How are the lips going to align? What parts of the face are going to be in front of the other? How much will the lips purse? And finally, what is going to squish? 

Thank you for reading! 😘

Psychic: *reads my mind*

Me: Well, Tamatoa hasn't always been this glam

I was a drab little crab once

Now I know I can be happy as a clam

Because I'm beautiful, baby

Did your granny say listen to your heart

Be who you are on the inside

I need three words to tear her argument apart

Your granny lied!

I'd rather be...

Shiny

Like a treasure from a sunken pirate wreck

Scrub the deck and make it look...

Shiny

I will sparkle like a wealthy woman's neck

Just a sec!

Don't you know

Fish are dumb, dumb, dumb

They chase anything that glitters (beginners!)

Oh, and here they come, come, come

To the brightest thing that glitters

Mmm, fish dinners

I just love free food

And you look like seafood

(Like seafood)

Well, well, well

Little Maui's having trouble with his look

You little semi-demi-mini-god

Ouch! What a terrible performance

Get the hook (get it?)

You don't swing it like you used to, man

Yet I have to give you credit for my start

And your tattoos on the outside

For just like you I made myself a work of art

I'll never hide; I can't, I'm too...

Shiny

Watch me dazzle like a diamond in the rough

Strut my stuff; my stuff is so...

Shiny

Send your armies but they'll never be enough

My shell's too tough

Maui man, you could try, try, try

But you can't expect a demi-god

To beat a decapod (give it up)

You will die, die, die

Now it's time for me to take apart

Your aching heart

Far from the ones who abandoned you

Chasing the love of these humans

Who made you feel wanted

You tried to be tough

But your armour's just not hard enough

Maui

Now it's time to kick your...

Hiney

Ever seen someone so...

Shiny

Soak it in 'cause it's the last you'll ever see

C'est la vie mon ami

I'm so...

Shiny

Now I'll eat you, so prepare your final plea

Just for me

You'll never be quite as...

Shiny

You wish you were nice and...

Shiny
