I'm using the video attached above to learn the basics of python :)

BCD Day 1: March 29

Today, I did some science about interactions within ecosystems, then I am ready to learn some python :)

I already had python installed from last time so I skipped until the variables & data types. But before that I need to refresh myself on what strings are since I forgot them. I spent around 20 minute on this. I learnt how to arrange strings when printing them and how variables work. I'm getting a little bored though...

BCD Day 2: April 12

9-ish to 10-ish

I decided to do some python first before I start my BCD things because why not? Today I learnt about:

1. How does numbers work + when and how to use them

2. Inputs and variables (again)

3. Lists and list function

Also I made some things in python like:

1. A Mad Libs game (which is quite easy with variables and inputs)

2. A simple calculators (which also uses variables and inputs)

Spent a little over an hour doing this. I am so hungry (even though I ate breakfast like a little over 2 hours ago... Imma be back :)

2-ish to 3-ish

Okay I'm back for round 2 :)

So for like the past hour, I learnt about:

1. Tuples (Took quite some time to differentiate between it and a list)

2.Functions (quite easy to understand)

3. Return statements (almost had a heart attack trying to understand)

4. If statements (Pretty easy to understand) + comparison (confusing but i got it :) )

OK, that is like 2+ of python for today so bye :)

BCD Day 3: 26 April

Before I started this, I realised I forgot about what I just learnt (like the contents, not what they are called :P), so I took like half an hour to refresh my mind.

So today I learn some thingz:

-How to build a somewhat realistic calculator (where the calc have multiple operations + I can add decimals too instead of just integers :) )

-Dictionaries ( I think that kinda useless imo, but who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ )

-While loop (Pretty easy to understand, though it took a while to differentiate from a for loop)

-A guessing game :) (It took a while to work since I keep missing stuff out by accident)

-For loop (Also pretty easy to understand, but it took a while to differentiate from a while loop)

-Exponent function (** looks like I am censoring something omg)

-2D list and nested loop (essentially a loop in a loop)

Today I spent almost 1.5 hours on python with no breaks (lost track of time oops) so I will continue this soon.

BCD Day 4: 10 May

I know that I am never gonna finish this course if I do it fortnightly, so I took some time off the day before yesterday and covered some things:

-Building a translator (I should get paid to do this)

-Comments (no comments, ba dum tsss - ok this is terrible -_-)

-Try/Except (I will try to do this, except that I am hungry for food)

(Skipped "reading files" and "writing to files", will come back to it when I need it)

--Modules and pips (Lifesaver :))

That's all that I covered on 8 May.

Now for today, I have done:

-Classes and objects (I will have to revisit this soon 'cause I am having a very hard time understanding this)

-Building a Multiple choice quiz (I should be a teacher :) - but with commitment issues .o.)

- Object functions (Revisit it along with :classes and objects" because I also don't understand this)

- Inheritance (Pretty easy to understand since it is mostly about common sense.)

I spent around an hour doing this since I kep repeating the classes and objects part of the video. (And yet I still don't understand it *facepalm*)

OVERALL REFLECTION

I feel that it was somewhat fun to learn about the basics about python, and about how they work. It is indeed a mind-boggling journey since I encountered many challenges such as minor slip-ups and frustration when I encountered a problem with my program. And because this is only a crash course on the basics of python, I look forward to taking some time off to start learning more about python (maybe an intermediate course?). Also I really need to revisit the part about "classes and objects" and "object function" because I have no clue about what they are 0.0 . I will definitely do some research on it :)

I did online research on how to draw some basic character faces and some tips on how to better improve my drawing.
The websites that I have used and accessed are stated in the following:
- https://www.skillshare.com/blog/how-to-draw-anime-for-beginners-a-step-by-step-guide/
- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TL8eepnTygs

Through my research, I learned the basic structure of the face and how to create that, I also learned how to draw the different facial features such as nose, mouth, and eyes. The eyes portion is extremely important as it is the distinctive feature that allows anime/manga style to stand out. A tip I have learned today is to use guidelines when drawing my character, this is to quickly draw a pose, compare body shapes and sizes, and avoid anatomy errors.

There's no mistaking anime characters. With their exaggerated eyes and distinct facial features, anime characters are unique and fun to draw. If you're new to anime, there are a few things you need to know about how to draw anime for beginners.

Below, we walk through five steps to drawing anime, including tips for getting the proportions right, options for different styles of anime hair, and instructions for drawing iconic anime eyes.

5 Simple Steps to Drawing Anime

Interested in creating your first anime drawing? Learn how to draw an anime girl step by step for beginners below.

Step 1: Create the Basic Structure of the Face

First, you will create the general composition of the character's face. While artists have varying preferences about how to structure an anime character's head and face, they all start with the same basic principle: First draw a circle, and then draw a horizontal line and vertical line directly through the center of the circle.

Generally, you will draw the eyes on or just below the horizontal line and the mouth at the bottom of the circle, with the nose placed between the eyes and the mouth. The chin will extend down below the circle.

Step 2: Add Facial Features

Now that you understand the general placement of the facial features, you can draw them in detail.

Eyes

Anime characters are known for their eyes, so here's how to draw anime girl eyes step by step for beginners. Start by sketching a curved upper eyelid, then draw a short line extending down from the outer corner of the eye. Leave the inner corner of the eye open for a softer look. Then, add a circle in the middle of the eye as the iris. Draw a smaller circle-the pupil-in the middle of the iris.

To create primary and secondary light reflections, add in one or two additional circles within the iris. When you fill in the pupil, shade the top portion darker, creating a gradient as you move down through the shape. Make sure to leave the light reflections white. Finally, add eyelashes to the top and bottom lid. Of course, there are many alternative ways to draw anime eyes, so make sure to experiment and find your unique style.

This classic style of anime eyes shows two points of reflection.

Nose and Mouth

The character's nose and mouth will typically be much smaller and simpler than the eyes. The nose, for instance, may just be two small lines that represent the nostrils. Similarly, the mouth may be a simple curved line.

Step 3: Draw the Hair

When learning to draw anime for beginners, there are a couple of options for how to draw the hair. Some artists opt to use dramatic, angular styles, while others prefer a more flowy, free-form style.

To create the flowing style in the example below, start by using quick, light-handed lines to draw bangs down to the eyes. Then, begin drawing the rest of the hair to frame the face. At the top of the head, make sure the hair extends above the initial circle you drew. In other words, the hair shouldn't lay flat on the scalp, but have volume above the character's head.

As you draw more characters, experiment with other types of anime hairstyles for both male and female characters.

Step 4: Add the Body

Next, we'll explore how to draw anime girl body step by step for beginners. The body anatomy starts with a few simple shapes: a rectangle for the chest, an oval for the hips, and small circles for the shoulders and leg joints.

From there, fill in the shape of the upper body, connecting the rib cage down to the hips, creating a waist. Next, you will draw the legs, which should be approximately the same length as the character's entire upper body, from the top of the head to the waist.

Finally, add in the arms. A good rule of thumb is to align the elbow with the character's waist, and then extend the rest of the arm (including the hand) to about mid-thigh.

No matter what kind of body style you're drawing, following these guidelines will ensure that you create proportional anatomy.

Step 5: Add Details and Ink the Drawing

At this point, you will have a full-body sketch of your anime character. Now, you can add details such as clothes and shoes. When you're satisfied with the drawing, finalize it by going over the lines in ink. While you will mostly ink with a black pen, it can also be helpful to have a white jelly pen on hand-you can use this to add highlights, like the reflection points in the character's eyes. You may also choose to add additional colors with colored pencils or medium of your choice.

Once you learn the basics of how to draw anime characters, continue to build on that foundation. For example, learn how to draw characters in different poses and from different angles, and try experimenting with new hairstyles, clothing options, and facial expressions. With practice and persistence, you can create iconic anime art in a style that's uniquely yours.

Through different websites and some searching, I have decided to make a platformer game that you can shoot and run in. As I had trouble understanding how to code the platformer blocks, I searched it up and found out that I needed to use the variables to control the y(gravity) so that the character will not glitch through it and render the game unplayable.

Today I identified the 2 types of cakes I will be learning to bake for the next few lessons, chocolate and vanilla cake. I also did research on these two types of cakes for their recipes.

https://www.recipetineats.com/my-very-best-vanilla-cake/
(2)
https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchen/basic-vanilla-cake-recipe-2043654

From the recipes, I realized that baking both cakes are actually really simple. Most of the steps are straightforward, and both cakes have similar steps and ingredients. For example, both cakes require the whisking and stirring of ingredients in a bowl, before pouring the batter into the prepared pans, and then baking. Both cakes also require ingredients such as eggs, milk, flour, baking powder, and sugar.

Looking at the recipes also gave me a general idea of the steps used to bake the cake, and also some ideas for the 2 recipes I will have to create next BCD.

Today, through some research ans SYFC lessons, and with GeoFS flight sim, geo-fs.com/fly?a=2808&lo=103.86362&la=1.41077&al=0&h=36 (you will spawn in Seletar Airport with a Supermarine Spitfire)

Note this SIL flight sim is NOT sponsored (GeoFS was the best available on PLD)

I learned about how the atmosphere will affect the 4 forces of flight as well as the following (too complex to tell in detail but it's in a more detailed form for presentation):

1. Parts of an aircraft
2. Elevator, rudder, and ailerons
3. Pitch, yaw, and roll
4. Lift and drag

Flight Sim:
geo-fs.com/fly?a=2808&lo=103.86362&la=1.41077&al=0&h=36

- you will spawn at Seletar Airport, ready to take off in a Supermarine Spitfire to learn about aerodynamics
- you can change controls, environment, takeoff location (every airport in the whole world), and choose between more than 60 different aircraft to fly from the Cessna 172 to the stealth F-22 Raptor (note the F-14B Tomcat mod is not functioning properly)

I used an app to learn some basic thai and I learnt that “P” is to call someone older than me in an informal yet respectful manner and “Nong” is to call someone younger than me in an informal and respectful manner. While “Khun” is to call someone more respectfully and formally and “ai” to call someone close to me informally and can also be considered rude if I called someone not close to me “ai”.

I also learnt that “hia” is to call someone older than me that is usually used by thai-chinese families and are only used to call older males usually an older brother.

The next few bracelets are the diagonal, chevron and shape bracelets. These bracelets are much harder to tie and takes up more of my time. To tie them, I would need to first learn how to tie the four different basic knots which I will learn the next session.

1)
https://www.thecreativefolk.com/best-yarn-amigurumi/
(2)
https://www.createforless.com/buying-guides/sewing-and-quilting/mettler-thread.aspx

from my research, I had learnt that the finest yarn that is used to make keychain soft toys is cotton or acrylic, which are medium-weighted yarn/worsted weight yarn. I have also learnt that cotton would be a better type of sewing thread to use compared to others because it is stronger and a lot softer. (might end up buying milk cotton instead because its cheaper and way softer)

some places to buy the materials
-shopee (we can always trust it man)
-shops in Chinatown
-Daiso
-hobbii (an online store)

I did online research on beginner rope skipping and I found this website with videos and tips for beginners.
From the website, I know that skipping can allow us to burn at least 1074 kcal/h and can help us t improve our endurance and athleticism.
Some other tips it shared with us are:

Keep your head up, chest up, and head looking forward

Keep your shoulders pulled back and your elbows held down and back

Keep your hands along the midline of your body

Use your wrists to turn the rope (not your elbows or shoulders)

I think these are all very important as it is important to learn the correct form and posture before skipping to avoid muscle soreness and injuries.

There are also videos that can help us to see a demonstration which can help us visualize what the steps are suppose to look like and that we are doing it correctly.

Are you a beginner who wants to learn how to jump rope?

We're going to show you everything you need to know to get started with jump rope fitness, no matter your experience level.

1. Why you should be skipping rope

2. What type of rope is best for your specific goals

3. Why weighted jump ropes are the secret to learning quickly

4. How to size your jump rope

5. How to learn proper form

6. What footwork techniques to start with for beginners

7. How to add jumping rope into your workouts

﻿Don't have time to read the full post? Check out our ﻿How To Jump Rope Story.

Let's get started!

Why You Should Learn How to Jump Rope

Why should you learn how to jump rope? You might be wondering, " is jump rope good for fat loss ?" or " is jumping rope good cardio ?"

The answer to both of those questions is yes.

So, before we jump into the fundamentals of the exercise, let's talk about the reasons you should be jumping rope in the first place.

1. It's an effective (and efficient) workout.

Research has shown that you can burn over 1000 calories per hour jumping rope. Compared to other activities, jumping rope is one of the most effective cardio workouts. In short, it helps you burn serious calories. (Just ask Tim who lost over 50 lbs jumping rope.)

It also helps you improve endurance and athleticism , building your cardio regardless if you're a beginner or advanced jumper (just ).

2. You can take your jump rope workouts anywhere.

Lately, it can be a challenge to find time to work out especially if you need to make the commute to the gym.

With the (and Crossrope app ), you can take your workout anywhere. Crossrope users have been seen jumping rope at home, at work (during their break), at their kid's sporting events, on the deck of a cruise ship, and the list goes on.

The jump rope makes it easy and fun to fit exercise into your life.

3. It offers plenty of other unique benefits.

There are many unique benefits to jumping rope. Few training tools require both physical and mental presence like the jump rope. This is no mindless activity. You're constantly engaged all the way through. Take it from Catharina:

"I tried Peloton but actually feel this is a faster, more effective workout." - Catharina K.

Plus, did you know that  jumping rope helps with the development of the left and right hemispheres of your brain? Jump rope increases spatial awareness and increases your memory making you more mentally alert.

It's also a self-limiting tool which means it enforces good form. Most training injuries come about from doing exercises with poor form. With the jump rope, if you use poor technique, sure you'll end up tripping up more often but at least you'll be less susceptible to injuries that can happen from ongoing use of poor form.

Oh and there's a fourth reason - it's effective. It can get you great fitness results in very little time. Some of our jumpers transform their bodies in only 30 days with our monthly jump rope fitness challenge . You can even mix a jump rope into your regular training routine and use it to achieve a wide variety of fitness goals.

How to Choose a Jump Rope

For starters, you can take to find out what jump rope is best for you.

There's a lot of different jump ropes available today, and it can be a tad overwhelming when you're just starting out. Don't worry, we got you covered.

If you're trying to decide how to choose a jump rope, let's consider your goals.

Do you want to jump rope for weight loss? If losing weight is your primary goal, you'll want to add a little weight to your ropes. The Crossrope Get Lean set is the perfect rope combination for weight loss.

The Get Lean set comes with a ¼ LB and ½ LB jump rope designed for HIIT and jump rope cardio workouts that will definitely leave you sweating.

Are you focused on building muscle? If strength training is what you're looking for, choosing heavy jump ropes is a great start.

The Crossrope set is a great introduction to heavy ropes and it comes with a 1 LB and 2 LB jump rope.

If you really want to activate more muscles, the Crossrope Heavy LE set is also perfect for strength training.

Now, you might already be objecting to the idea of a weighted jump rope if you're a beginner, and we get it, weighted ropes are sort of intimidating. So, what should you choose if you're totally new to jump rope training?

What is the Best Jump Rope for Beginners?

This is a question we get often in our jump rope fitness community - what kind of jump rope should I buy? What's the best skipping rope for beginners?

Those are great questions, but the answers are slightly counterintuitive.

We most commonly see new jumpers start their jump rope journey with an inexpensive, plastic (PVC) rope that can be picked up at any local department store.

But here's the problem with light PVC ropes...

Lightweight ropes make learning how to jump rope very difficult because they're too light and don't offer any physical feedback when you're jumping.

In other words, you can't feel the rope rotating around your body making it challenging to time your jumps properly. Light jump ropes are generally the culprit for common jump rope mistakes . Cue trip-ups and frustration.

If you're an experienced athlete or generally have a high level of coordination, you'll probably be able to get away with learning how to jump rope with a PVC rope. But if you're new to jumping or generally feel like you lack coordination, you'll need to take a different approach.

Here's what we suggest - skip the cheap plastic ropes and use a slightly weighted rope instead.

Weighted jump ropes don't just support weight loss or strength training, they actually help you learn the proper form and rhythm for mastering the exercise.

Specifically, a weighted jump rope will do two things:

1. It will allow you to feel the rope turning around your body which will make it easier to time your jumps.

2. It will slow down your rotation just enough to allow you to maintain a nice consistent pace with your jumps.

While it sounds counter-intuitive, we've seen the story play out countless times at our past workshops: after numerous mistakes with a light rope, we'll give a new jumper a slightly weighted rope (most often our 1/2 LB rope) and watch magic happen. They go from trip-up to trip-up to suddenly stringing consistent jumps together almost instantly.

"The weight of the rope is perfect for me and I'm actually finally improving my technique. The lighter ropes were too light and I tripped so much it wasn't as fun I'm having now!" - Linda A.

So what rope should you use?

Any rope that has some weight to it will work. For new Crossrope Get Lean customers, we always recommend getting started with the white 1/2 LB rope. This is the perfect weight of rope to start with.

How to Size a Jump Rope

Another common roadblock we see beginners struggling with is they choose a rope that's not the ideal length for their body.

Using a jump rope that is not properly sized for you will make your learning experience frustrating.

While the rope size you choose will depend largely on your jumping style and ability, there are some simple guidelines you can follow to find that sweet spot.

This chart will help guide you through selecting the right jump rope size:

And if you're trying to size your Crossrope just right, we've made it easy for you. Check out our guide on how to size a jump rope .

How to Learn Proper Jump Rope Form

Alright. You have your jump rope. It's weighted. It's the right size. Good.

How do you get started?

We're going to go over a few essential jump rope techniques for beginners that you need to practice to learn how to jump rope.

When it comes to jump rope technique, there are a few simple, yet important things you must be aware of. Let's break them down one by one.

How to Hold a Jump Rope

Where you position your hands while jumping rope is very important. You want to focus on two things in particular:

1. Symmetry: you want to make sure both hands are roughly the same distance apart from the centerline of your body.

2. Movement: you want to make sure there is minimal movement of the elbows and shoulders. The jump rope rotation should be generated by your wrists.

Watch this quick video on hand positioning:

Proper Bounding

Jumping rope is all about consistent bounding.

You want to minimize the space you create between yourself and the ground. Your jumps should be roughly 1-2 inches off the ground.

You also don't want to pull your feet back or tuck your knees in. You want to keep your toes pointed down slightly on every jump.

Another important note - make sure there is always a slight bend in your knees and that you are landing softly on the balls of your feet every jump. This will ensure the stresses from jumping are nicely dissipated through your body.

And one more thing...

Can You Jump Without a Rope?

Absolutely. One of the best ways to learn how to jump rope properly is to start by practicing some beginner techniques without a rope.

So, before we end this section on jump rope fundamentals, we want to show you three simple drills that you should practice to help you get the hang of the basics.

You don't need a rope for these drills. Watch the video below for instructions.

Your First Jump Rope Exercise

Once you feel comfortable with the fundamentals, you're ready to learn your first jump rope exercise.

As you're practicing the basic jump, here is a reminder of some important guidelines to keep in mind:

Keep your feet close together when jumping

Jump on the midsoles of your feet and land softly

Keep your jumping height low (½" - 1" off the ground)

Keep your knees slightly bent at all times

Maintain a tall, neutral spine

Keep your head up, chest up, and head looking forward

Keep your shoulders pulled back and your elbows held down and back

Keep your hands along the midline of your body (along that string)

Use your wrists to turn the rope (not your elbows or shoulders)

The basic jump requires a bit of practice until you get the rhythm and timing down. Again, a weighted rope will help you speed up your learning. Using a mirror will also help you pinpoint any symmetry issues you might be having.

Jump Rope Footwork for Beginners

Once you're feeling good about your basic jump, you will have built the necessary platform to start learning other jump rope exercises and footwork patterns.

The five primary jump rope fitness exercises we suggest learning after the basic jump are:

You can find a full tutorial breakdown of these (and many other) exercises in our jump rope exercises guide.

Your First Jump Rope Workout

You made it to the end!

You've got your (weighted) jump rope. You've sized it properly. You've got your fundamental techniques dialed in. And you've learned some basic footwork.

Try the workout linked above, but the best place to find a variety of beginner jump rope workouts that you can follow along with (and take anywhere), is from the free Crossrope jump rope app . The app is available on and Google Play .

How To Jump Rope Summary

Thanks for taking the time to read through our complete beginner guide to jump rope training. Our hope is that you got some value from it and that it has inspired you to give jump rope training a try.

Here is a quick recap of what we've learned. We started by looking at the reasons for jumping rope. There are a number of them, but convenience, versatility, effectiveness, and portability were some of the top ones.

With the right rope in hand, we discussed the importance of sizing and explored the fundamental jump rope techniques you must learn - primarily hand positioning and proper bounding. We also covered the first jump rope exercise you need to master: the basic jump.

We finally finished things off by digging into your first jump rope workout. Make sure to download the app to get the full jump rope workout experience.

After some research, I found this tutorial (Youtube), which explains the process of how to draw both hands and feet.

Firstly, after watching the tutorial, I practiced drawing sketches of hands on some scrap paper and blank pages on the backs of worksheets I had on hand (hehe hand pun :D).

Secondly, I took pictures of the sketches that looked the best out of all of those that I had drawn and transferred them into my PLD. Then, I used the "IbisPaint X" Drawing App to draw the hands.

Through a lot of trial and error, I finally drew 2 hands I was satisfied with.

In the end, I coloured these hands in to practice my shading and lighting (unrelated to SIL).

Although these hands might look a little awkward to me in how they are positioned, I still feel proud of myself for being able to draw hands (somewhat realistically).

I'll keep practicing drawing hands in my own time! :D

today, i did some online research on how anime characters are drawn. first, face shape are a key characteristic of anime characters. When drawing the outer shape of an anime face in the front view it may be helpful to think of it as being composed of three basic shapes: circle, quadrilateral and triangle. next, face proportions. for eyes, draw a horizontal line directly through the middle of the head and draw the eyes below that line. for ears, make a second horizontal line between the halfway line and the chin and draw the ears between those two lines. for nose should be above the line used for the bottom of the ears. for mouth, draw a line between the bottom of ears/nose line to get the position of the bottom lip (not actually drawn in the illustration) and draw the mouth just slightly above that

I have decided that for the next sil session, i will be using kazuha from genshin as my reference for some rough sketches.

This tutorial explains how to draw female anime and manga style characters using eight popular anime character archetypes with three examples of each.

As the name states this tutorial is all about "character". It shows how you can take one anime or manga style face and tweak it's features and expression to give an appearance of a different personality. It also suggests some hairstyles that may be well suited for each character type.

The character archetypes included are:

For drawing male characters see:
How to Draw Male Anime Characters Step by Step
Face Proportions for an Anime Character

The base character drawing proportions used in this tutorial are shown in the illustration above. If you've seen some of the other tutorials here on AnimeOutline you may already be aware of these.

If not the proportions are as follows:

Eyes - draw a horizontal line directly through the middle of the head and draw the eyes below that line (far enough apart that you can fit another eye between them)

Ears - make a second horizontal line between the halfway line and the chin and draw the ears between those two lines

Nose - above the line used for the bottom of the ears

Mouth - draw a line between the bottom of ears/nose line to get the position of the bottom lip (not actually drawn in the illustration) and draw the mouth just slightly above that

You can draw the eyebrows and eyelids slightly above the eyes.

Please keep in mind that the size and position of the facial features in the examples below will change based on character type and facial expressions.

Also be aware that these are only suggested proportions for making a character look "anime". Different anime styles can still have different proportions.

For a more detailed tutorial for each of the facial features see:

Basic Shape of an Anime Character's Face

When drawing the outer shape of an anime face in the front view it may be helpful to think of it as being composed of three basic shapes as shown above (circle, quadrilateral and triangle).

Anime Character Face Drawing Step by Step

To draw any of the characters in this tutorial you can use the steps in the above illustration.

1. Draw the basic shape of the head (and neck shoulders in this case) starting with a vertical line to help you make sure both halves are even

2. Positioned the facial features as described earlier including the parts that are hidden by the hair (you can exclude the ears for hairstyles where they are fully hidden if you like)

3. Draw the hair (overlapping some of the facial features if needed)

4. Erase the parts of the face hidden by the hair and if you like apply some shading or color

For an explanation of why you want to draw this way (showing the hidden parts of the face etc...) and other helpful drawing tips see:
Beginner Guide to Drawing Anime & Manga
For the full tutorial on drawing a female anime or manga style head and face please see:
How to Draw an Anime Girl's Head and Face
For drawing and shading the different hairstyles used in this tutorial see:

For other hair drawing tutorials see:

Drawing an "Ordinary Girl" Anime Character

The "ordinary girl" character can be the "childhood friend" or the "main girl" in the story. In anime and manga they tend to be friendly and down to earth.

Ordinary long hair may be a good fit for the "ordinary girl".

To draw the "ordinary girl" character with their normal expression draw fairly wide eyes and large irises/pupils. This will make the character look more friendly.

You can draw the mouth with a very light smile (curving very slightly upwards).

Draw the eyebrows in pretty much their natural state with smooth curves.

Drawing a Smiling "Ordinary Girl" Anime Character

A smile is one common expression for this type of character.

For a smiling face draw the eyes slightly narrower with, reverse the curves of the bottom eyelids from their normal state and draw the mouth slightly wider.

Drawing a Happy "Ordinary Girl" Anime Character

A happy face is another expression that can be fairly common for the "ordinary girl" character.

For more on drawing anime and manga style blush see:
How to Draw Anime Blush in Different Ways
For the happy face you can pretty much draw it the same as the smiling face but draw the mouth slightly open showing the white of the teeth and add some blush just below the eyes.

Drawing an Antagonist/Villain Anime Character

The antagonist or the main villain is usually the direct opposite of the protagonist. A negative character with few to no good traits.

To draw an unfriendly looking anime character like this example draw the pupils of the eyes and irises fairly small with the top eyelids covering a good portion of the eye.

Do not add any shadows to the top of the irises (his will give the villain that "stare" type of look). Also draw fewer highlights in the eyes and make them fairly small for an even less friendly look.

Draw the bottom eyelids and the mouth in reverse curves (downwards).

Position the eyebrows lower down in "wave like shape" for a sort of semi-permanent frown.

You can use what is often referred to as a "Hime Cut" for the hair. As "Hime" means princess combined with a look like the one above it can reinforce the idea of a stuck up or spoiled character.

Drawing a Crazy Looking Anime Villain Character

To give the anime "villain" character that crazy or maniacal look they sometimes have draw the irises and pupils of the eyes very small so that there is a good bit of white space around them.

Draw the eyebrows somewhat lower in wave like shapes as the previous example but with their inner ends raised slightly back up again. Again don't add any shadows to the irises and draw only one set of reflections.

Draw the mouth with the teeth showing in a wide smile.

Eventually you should end up with crazy looking eyes and a grinning mouth. Prefect expression for a villain (though it might be a bit hard to actually pull this one off in real life)

Drawing an Angry Looking Anime Villain Character

This angry expression is one that anime villain characters tend to make when they are ticked off (often from their evil plans failing).

For the angry looking villain draw the top eyelids lowered and the bottom eyelids raised (in reversed curves). Draw the pupils and irises small with no shadows and small reflections same as the previous example.

Position the eyebrows lower down in wave like shapes.

Draw the mouth in a sort of "bean" shape with the bottom ends curving slightly downwards and the teeth showing.

Drawing Tsundere Anime Character

For those that don't know a tsundere is a character that may act somewhat hostile at times but it actually nice. These types of characters usually have trouble showing their true feelings and get embarrassed when they do.

For a tsundere's normal expression you can pretty much draw her the same as you would the "ordinary girl".

Some small tweaks you can make are drawing the top eyelids slightly lower down and drawing a slightly smaller mouth to give her less of a smile.

You can also draw slightly smaller irises and pupils than the "ordinary girl. This will give her a slightly less friendly but still normal appearance.

Pigtails may be a good hairstyle for a tsundere to give the character a slightly more childish/immature appearance.

Drawing an Angry Anime Tsundere Character

For the angry (and slightly embarrassed look) draw the eyes slightly squinted and the eyebrows with their inner ends lowered.

Draw the mouth curving downwards.

Finally indicate some blush on the cheeks with some small striped lines.

Drawing an Embarrassed Anime Tsundere Character

As already mentioned a "tsundere" character tends to get embarrased when showing their true feelings so this can be a fairly common expression for them.

For an embarrassed "tsundere" face draw the eyes squinting and looking downwards. Draw a horizontally wide mouth with the bottom ends wider than the top. Also keep in mind that when the mouth is open you should draw the jaw slightly lower down.

Draw the eyebrows lower down.

Drawing a Yandere Anime Character

A yandere is a reverse of the tsundere. A character who appears to be nice and friendly but can actually be quite hostile. The extreme versions of this character can be a downright crazy.

For the yandere's normal face you can draw it exactly the same as you would the "ordinary girl" with big eyes and a fairly friendly expression.

You can also give her long but slightly more messy hair to give a hint that there may be something "off" about her.

Drawing a "Cold Stare" Anime Yandere Character

The "cold stare" face is one the yandere character tends to make when her true colors come out. Usually it's towards a female rival but can be for anyone she is "upset" with.

For this type of face draw the eyes very slightly squinted with the bottom eyelids in reverse of their normal cures. Draw the pupils of the eyes very small in relation to the iris with no shadows and small highlights/reflections.

Draw the inner ends of the eyebrows raised and draw the mouth just very lightly open with the top lip raised and revealing some of the teeth.

Drawing a Crazy Looking Anime Yandere Character

This particular crazy face is one a tsundere tends to make for someone she is obsessed/in love with.

For the crazy expression draw the eyes slightly wider than normal with small irises/pupils/highlights and no shadows.

Draw the eyebrows in upside down curves (from their normal state) with the inner sides of the eyebrows raised.

Draw the mouth open in a sort of relaxed state (not too wide). Remember to draw the chin slightly lower down for the open mouth.

Drawing a Shy Anime Character

These types of characters are usually nice and harmless but may be loners due to being afraid to talk to others.

A good hairstyle for this type of character can be the "hair over one eye" to reinforce the idea of "hiding" and shyness. But in case you want to draw a different hairstyle both eyes are show in the example below.

You can pretty much draw this character the same way as the "ordinary girl" but with slightly smaller irises/pupils to give her a bit more of a "scared" look.

Drawing a Daydreaming Shy Anime Character

As the "shy girl" characters tend to be loners they may often be daydreaming by themselves.

For the daydreaming expression draw the eye/eyes to one side of the face with both the top and the bottom eyelids slightly raised. You can also draw slightly raised eyebrows

Draw the mouth smiling with the teeth showing and add some blush below the eyes.

Drawing a Shy Anime Character with an Awkward Look

When dealing with other characters the shy characters often tend to avoid eye contact and look down. They may also have a bit of a nervous smile.

For the awkward expression draw the eye/eyes looking down as mentioned above with the bottom part of the iris slightly covered by the bottom eyelid. Leave a bit of space between the iris and the top eyelid.

Drawing a Tough Anime Character

These are often positive characters that may help protect the protagonist but they can also sometimes smack them around. They also tend to be into some sort of martial arts or "kendo" and may often get into fights.

A pony tail can be fairly common for these types of characters as it can give them that "sporty" as athletes often tie their hair back so it doesn't get in the way.

For a tough looking character draw the eyes with the top eyelids down and the bottom eyelids slightly raised. Draw the eyebrows with the inner ends lowered.

Draw the mouth in a very light upside down curve.

Drawing an Angry Tough Anime Character

The "though girl" anime characters tend to be fairly emotional and can get angry easily.

For the angry face draw the eyes a lot more squinted than normal and the eyebrows even lower down.

Draw the mouth open and fairly wide (horizontally) with the bottom being slightly wider than the top.

You can also give her a bit of medical tape on her cheek to reinforce the idea of her "active" character (working out or getting into fights).

Drawing a Happy Tough Anime Character

As already mentioned these types of characters can be fairly emotional and are as likely to easily be happy as angry.

For a happy/content face draw the "tough" girls eyes fully closed. Basically a set of curves with eyelashes. Draw the eyebrows slightly flatter than normal (less of a curve).

For a detailed explanation on drawing closed anime eyes see:
How to Draw Closed, Closing & Squinted Anime Eyes
Drawing a Delinquent Anime Character

This type of character can often be a bully/hostile and pick fights. A good hairstyle for the delinquent can be short and maybe slightly messy hair. It will help create a sort of "tomboy" image for the character.

You can draw the "delinquent" face similar to the "tough girl" but draw the bottom eyelids almost straight and the irises (with everything inside them) much smaller. Draw the top of the irises covered by the top eyelids and leave some space between them and the bottom eyelids.

Draw the mouth in a light upside down curve.

Drawing a "One Eyebrow Raised" Delinquent Anime Character

This is a face anime delinquent characters tend to make when gloating or bullying someone.

For this expression draw one eye squinted with the eyebrow over that eye lower down in a reversed curve. Draw the second eye slightly wider and with the eyebrow over that eye raised.

Draw the mouth in a sort of "crooked" smile with the teeth showing.

Drawing a "Bullying" Delinquent Anime Character

This is yet another "bullying" face the delinquent tends to make.

For this expression draw the eyebrows lower down in reversed curves. Draw the mouth slightly open.

Drawing an Anime Bookworm Character

The bookworm as the name suggest is a character that usually spends a lot of time reading and studying. They can often serve as a sort of "go to for advice" type character for the protagonist.

A more neatly combed hairstyle may be more appropriate for this type of character as they are usually fairly diligent in everything they do.

You can draw the eyes for the "bookworm" almost the same as you would for the ordinary character.

Draw the mouth pretty much straight with no curve to give her a more serious look.

Finally you want to give her some glasses. For more on drawing anime glasses you can see:
How to Draw Anime & Manga Glasses
Drawing a Curious Bookworm Anime Character

The curious expression is one the "bookworm" tends to have when reading or looking at something they are particularly interested in. In this expression the eyes are often hidden behind the reflection of the light in the glasses.

While the eyes are not shown in this expression you can still use the vertical halfway line to make sure you correctly position the glasses.

Draw the mouth close to a sort of "rounded square" shape with (slightly wider towards the bottom).

Drawing a Shy Looking Bookworm Anime Character

The "bookworm" can also be shy at times especially towards someone they like.

For a shy "bookworm" face draw the eyes as normal with the eyebrows raised towards the center of the face.

Draw the mouth in a light smile and add some blush to the cheeks.

Conclusion

This concludes the anime character drawing tutorial. There are still many more archetypes and other aspects that go into making a character but it's hard to cover that much in one tutorial (this is already the longest one here on AnimeOutline thus far).

These examples should give you enough to work with that you can use them to create other character types.

After my research two weeks ago, I tried tying the four basic knots. With these 4 basic knots, I can tie different patterns on the friendship bracelets.

- Forward knot: Put the string on the far left on top of the second string, which should look like a number "4". Then loop the string under the second string and pull upwards tightly. Repeat the step again to finish the knot.

- Backward knot: Put the string on the far right on top of the second string, which should look like the letter "P". Then loop the string under the second string and pull upwards tightly. Repeat the step again to finish the knot.

- Forward-backward knot: Start with the string on the far left. Put the string on top the of the second string, which should look like the number "4". Then loop the string under the second string and pull upwards tightly. The second step is to put the string  on top of the second string, which should look like the letter "P". Then loop the string under the second string and pull upwards tightly.

- Backward-forward knot: Start with the string on the far right. Put the string on top the of the second string, which should look like the letter "P". Then loop the string under the second string and pull upwards tightly. The second step is to put the string  on top of the second string, which should look like the number "4". Then loop the string under the second string and pull upwards tightly.

based on my earlier research on the best type of yarn to use and sowing thread to use for keychains, i decided to crochet the ice bear from we bare bears. main considerations include they are simple to crochet, not too many materials needed and can match with my best friends. it also have to be small but cute and attractive. i chose the ice bear out of the 3 bears because it requires the least type of yarns and it describes my personality. He seems to not be very conversant, as Ice Bear generally speaks in one-liners and very vague sentences and responds through action instead.

I started coding in my free time and I am regretting this. To finish my game, I would need to code 3 separate parts(sprites), which are these so-called 'characters' in Scratch that you can program to do things such as move to a certain place on the 'stage' in the application. So these 3 sprites would be:
-The spaceship
-The blaster bolt
-The enemy

I tried doing some of the basic skipping moves like running step and double under, as well as some advanced moves like CL and AS. Although it was quite hard at first, I just kept trying and eventually succeeded. It was very fun and i'm excited to see what i would be doing next.

from the decided recipe i made some modifications to make it healthier

like for example i reduced the amount of sugar and replaced the flour with wholegrain flour for added fibre ! !!

i drew a quick drawing to try to apply any knowledge i have currently, as u can see its very simple and mostly flat colours.

I think that i can improve this by using references to make the textures more realistic and nice

I thought of improving the code from the previous week, and made the code be able to accept decimals, so that I can use the code to calculate whatever number I want, using double, after changing the type from string to double.

Today, I decided to experiment with some faces from online sources. Something that could have been improved maybe was the timing spent on each face, as the duration spent for each face was a little long.
