How to Draw Spider-Man's Face

1. Begin the Spider-Man's face outline by drawing an eye spot. Use curved lines to enclose a teardrop shape that is slightly pointed at the inner corner of the eye. Then, draw another, larger teardrop shape around the first.

2. Shade between the previous lines to create the dark outline of the eye spot. Then, draw the second eye spot. Again, use two teardrop shapes, one inside the other, each slightly pointed at the inner corner of the eye.

3. Begin sketching the shape of Spider-Man's head. Use a long curved line.

4. Continue the line until you have completely enclosed the head.

5. Below the head, extend two curved lines to form the neck. Allow the lines to diverge, creating the tops of the shoulders.

6. Begin adding detail to Spider-Man's mask. Draw curved lines across the face at different angles, creating a starburst pattern. All the lines should cross one another between the eyespots. This is the center of the suit's web design.

7. Draw an oval around the center of the web. Then, draw successively larger ovals that seem to pass behind the eyespots.

8. Next, begin the web pattern on the neck and shoulders. Draw three straight, vertical lines below the chin, and additional curved lines on both sides of these.

9. Draw curved lines across the previous lines to create a checkerboard pattern.
