Okay, so today I messed around with “One Piece Hakuba.” I’ve always been a big fan of Cavendish and his alter ego, so I wanted to see if I could create something cool with it.
Getting Started
First, I gathered some reference images. You know, gotta have those visuals! I opened up a bunch of tabs with pictures of Cavendish, Hakuba, and even some general “One Piece” art to get the style right.
- Searched for “Cavendish One Piece”
- Looked for “Hakuba One Piece”
- Checked out some fan art for inspiration.
I grabbed paper and pencil, just do some rough, and fast sketches.
The Rough Sketch
I started by sketching out a basic pose. I wanted something dynamic, you know, to capture Hakuba’s speed and intensity. I initially drew Cavendish’s body, and a rough face.
Then it hit me – I should show the transformation! So, I lightly sketched in some extra lines to represent Hakuba’s wild hair and that crazy, gleeful expression he gets.
The struggle is REAL
Okay, here’s where things got a little tricky. I struggled with the hands. Hands are always the enemy, right? I erased and redrew them like a million times. I also played around with the sword, trying to get the perspective right. It took a few tries, but I think I finally got something that looked decent.
Adding Details and Refining
Once I was happy with the overall pose, I started adding more details. I refined the facial features, making sure to capture that half-Cavendish, half-Hakuba look. I added some shading to give the drawing some depth and make it pop a bit more.
Also the clothes, with all those frills and details, took the majority of time, but I do not have the patient to make them all perfect. So just rough shadows and highlights for now.
Finishing Up (For Now)
I stepped back and looked at the drawing. It’s definitely not perfect, but I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. It captures the energy I was going for, and it’s recognizable as Hakuba. I might come back to it later and add some color or ink, but for now, I’m calling it a day!
This was a fun little project. It’s always cool to draw characters you love, and it’s a good way to practice your skills. Plus, who doesn’t love a good split personality pirate?
