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. 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. You don’t have to add the corners of the mouth! I usually do when I want to show that the character is smiling. By now it should look something like this: Which usually includes the noses, but from this angle they won’t squish unless you intend on making nice big noses <3. So yeah once the lightning shape looks good, I usually add details and squish parts of the face that will touch. 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.
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. A common mistake is drawing them too close. Also, focus on getting the heads at the right distance and angle. 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. And believe it or not, I think this one is the hardest! Let’s start do a basic side view kiss on the lips. 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. I’m going to focus on mainly the lips and also try and tackle some common mistakes when you’re first starting out. 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.
