CREATING CHARACTERS CAN FEEL INTIMIDATING — UNTIL YOU KNOW HOW TO BRING THEM TO LIFE
Maybe you’ve drawn characters before, but they feel flat, stiff, or disconnected. The proportions seem off, the colors don’t quite work together, and something about them just doesn’t feel alive. You stare at your sketch, unsure of what’s missing.
Here’s the truth: creating compelling characters isn’t about being a pro, it’s about understanding shape, color, light, and emotion. Once you learn how to see your characters differently, everything starts to click.
In Bring Any Character to Life through Semi-Realistic Portraits, I’ll guide you step by step through my anime-influenced semi-realistic style. We’ll explore color, texture, and light, because that’s where the real magic happens, and turn simple sketches into expressive, dynamic characters.
No pressure. No perfect process. Just clear guidance, growing confidence, and characters that truly feel alive.
Hi, I’m Mielzy!
I’m an NYC-based artist who has never been able to give up their passion for scribbling pretty anime people. I’ve been drawing digitally since I was fourteen, mostly self-taught.
The thing is, it’s been hard to get to where I am; in fact, it took more than 10 years of me finding random resources online to teach myself how to draw…
That’s where this course comes in. This is a course I wish I had when I started. I’ll be condensing those 10 years of fumbling into a much more streamlined walkthrough of how you can learn to draw like me.

IMAGINE CREATING CHARACTERS THAT FEEL ALIVE AND FULL OF STORY…
✦ Imagine finishing this course and looking at a character that truly has presence: emotion, depth, and personality shining through.
✦ Imagine approaching humanoid characters with confidence: understanding proportions, shapes, and light instead of second-guessing every line.
✦ Imagine playing freely with color, texture, and mood, and finally seeing your characters come to life on the page.
I know how frustrating it can feel to redraw the same character over and over, wondering why they still feel flat or unfinished. That’s exactly why I created Bring Any Character to Life through Semi-Realistic Portraits a course designed to guide you step by step, no matter where you’re starting from.
You’ll learn how to build strong character foundations, develop an anime-influenced semi-realistic style, and use color, texture, and light to create expressive, believable characters.
This isn’t about perfection, it’s about building confidence, trusting your creative choices, and enjoying the process.
By the end, you won’t just have finished character portraits, you’ll have the skills and confidence to keep creating characters that feel alive and uniquely yours.
Let’s bring your characters to life, together. ✨
At the end of the course you will:
Create Expressive, Lifelike Characters
You’ll learn how to build strong head and facial structure, achieve believable proportions, and infuse emotion and personality into your characters, so they feel alive, not flat or generic.
Use Color, Values, and Light with Confidence
You’ll understand how to work with values, color relationships, and rendering techniques to add depth, mood, and realism to your semi-realistic portraits.
Draw and Render with Clarity and Intention
You’ll stop second-guessing and start creating with purpose, knowing how to plan your portraits, break down references, fix mistakes, and trust your process from sketch to final render.
Course Content
The course is organized into 5 structured modules, designed to help you grow step by step, from the very basics to fully rendered semi-realistic portraits. With 5+ hours of in-depth instruction and 30+ video lessons, you can pause, rewind, and revisit each lesson anytime, learning at a pace that feels natural and supportive.
This journey is open to everyone, whether you’re just starting out, exploring digital art tools. We begin with essential concepts like tools, workflow, and mindset, then move into shapes, references, and values before diving deep into anatomy.
You’ll learn how to construct the head and neck, understand facial features, work with perspective, and break down complex references into simple, usable shapes. From there, we move into full portrait studies, gradually adding values, color, and rendering to bring each character to life.
With every study and finished portrait, your confidence will grow. What once felt confusing will start to feel intuitive, and by the end of the course, you’ll be able to create semi-realistic characters with clarity, intention, and a strong sense of structure, color, and emotion.
