How to Draw Black Panther
- Draw the basic head and body shapes.
To begin, draw a large, oval-like shape for Black Panther’s head. This shape will form the foundation of the character’s head. Make it round but slightly longer at the bottom. Below the head, draw a long, rectangular shape that will serve as the body. The body should be slightly narrower than the head.
- Add the eyes.
In this step, you will add Black Panther’s distinct, sharp eyes. Draw the eyes toward the center of the face, making sure they are symmetrical and slightly angled upward to give the character a focused glaze. The eyes should resemble two small, sharp diamonds or angular shapes that sit within the large head.
- Draw the arms of Black Panther.
Start by sketching two curved lines on each side of the torso. These lines should be short, with rounded ends to indicate the hands. Make sure the arms are equal in size and shape. To make the arms of Black Panther look more realistic, you can add fingers.
- Add the waistline and details to the suit.
Now, begin adding more structure to the body by defining the waistline. Draw a horizontal line across the lower part of the body, marking where the torso ends and the legs begin. Additionally, refine the arms by adding simple short lines to illustrate the hands.
- Draw the legs and feet of Black Panther.
Start by drawing two vertical lines extending downward just below the waistline. These lines should come together slightly at the top, creating an elongated arch look. At the bottom of each leg, draw simple, oval shapes to represent the feet.
- Draw the ears and collar of Black Panther.
First, draw two small, pointed ears on top of the head, placing them symmetrically on either side. The ears should be slightly curved and point outward. Next, move to the collar and draw a jagged, necklace-like design around the neck.
- Add the details on the face and suit.
Begin by adding the characteristic design lines on the face. First, draw two angular geometric shapes on the forehead, then sketch two similar shapes on the cheeks. These sharp, angular lines form the mask’s unique pattern and give Black Panther an iconic look. Then, add simple short lines to the arms.
- Refine the details of the sketch.
Now refine your Black Panther drawing by erasing any unnecessary guidelines or rough sketches that were used earlier. Carefully go over the lines of Black Panther, making sure everything is neat and clear. Darken the final lines to make the sketch ready for the next step.
- Color your Black Panther drawing.
Black Panther’s suit is mostly black, so use dark tones to fill in the body. However, leave the lines and details on the mask and suit a lighter color, such as silver or gray. The eyes should remain white, giving them a contrast against the black suit. You can also add subtle shading to give the suit a more realistic appearance.

How to Draw Black Panther: Advanced Tips
To make your Black Panther drawing more dimensional, consider adding shading to different parts of Black Panther’s suit. Shading will give the drawing a three-dimensional look, making it feel more realistic. Keep in mind the light source direction while shading. Gradually build up the shadow layers rather than making them too dark too quickly.
To improve the overall look of your Black Panther drawing, take some time to refine and improve the mask patterns. You can add more new lines and patterns to make the mask look more authentic. Make sure the lines are sharp and clean, as they are a key feature of Black Panther’s design.
For a more complete drawing, you can add a simple background behind Black Panther. This doesn’t have to be too detailed – just a few elements can make the character’s setting more interesting. For example, you can draw the skyline of a futuristic city or the lush environment of Wakanda. Keep the background light and not too detailed so it doesn’t take away attention from Black Panther.
