How to Draw Star Wars Bounty Hunters

One of the most popular characters from the "Star Wars" saga is the bounty hunter Boba Fett. Boba Fett made his first appearance in "Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back" as one of the main villains. Fett was a bounty hunter hired by Jabba the Hutt to capture Hans Solo for an outstanding debt Solo owed Jabba. The mysterious nature of Boba Fett and the fact that the movies go into little detail about the character has been given the credit for making the character of Boba Fett so popular today.

Instructions

1. Draw a circle on a piece of paper. Draw a vertical line down through the middle of the circle and bring it past the bottom of the circle. Make a horizontal line starting at the edge of the circle on the inside that goes across the circle to the other side. Make sure this line is halfway down the circle and that it intersects with the horizontal line you made.

2. Draw a vertical line straight down from the horizontal line in the circle. This line will be outside of the circle, but will start where the horizontal line meets the lines of the circle. From the end of this line, draw a diagonal line that goes down and to the right. Start at the end of this line and make a small straight line no longer than 1 inch.

3. Draw another diagonal line from the ending point of the straight line that goes up and to the right. Now make another vertical line from the end of the diagonal line that connects with the horizontal line in the circle. This is the bottom half of the helmet. The top part of the circle is the top of the helmet.

4. Draw the visor of Boba Fett's helmet. Go back to the first two lines you drew on the paper and draw a T shape down to the bottom of the helmet.

5. Used curved lines to finish the shape of the helmet. Draw curved lines in the bottom part of the helmet on both sides of the T shape. These curved lines will give the helmet its definition.

6. Erase the original guide lines you drew in the first step.

7. Shade the helmet. Lightly shade inside the T-shaped visor, leaving a few patches of white to make it look like there is light reflecting off the visor. Shade inside the curved lines at the bottom of the helmet. This will also give your helmet a three-dimensional look.
