Friday Night Funkin’ is a rhythm game with bold, blocky characters, and Boyfriend — the main character — is a fun one to start with. His spiky blue hair, baseball cap and pixel-style face are made of simple shapes, so he’s easier to draw than he first looks.

🖍️ What You Need

  • Pencil and eraser
  • Black pen for outlines
  • Blue, red and purple markers
  • A skin-tone pencil for the face

How to Draw Friday Night Funkin’ Boyfriend Step by Step

  1. Draw the head — a slightly rounded square shape for that blocky look.
  2. Add the spiky hair — jagged zig-zag shapes on top for his pointy blue hair.
  3. Draw the cap — a small cap sitting at the back of the hair.
  4. Add the face — simple oval eyes and a small confident smirk.
  5. Sketch the body — a chunky torso with a t-shirt.
  6. Add the arms — one often raised, holding a microphone.
  7. Draw the legs — simple shapes with chunky shoes.
  8. Colour him in — blue hair, red cap, purple t-shirt and a microphone.
💡 Parikshet's Tip: Keep the hair as a few big, bold spikes rather than lots of tiny ones — the chunky zig-zag is what makes him look like a Friday Night Funkin’ character.

🌟 Did You Know?

Friday Night Funkin’ started as a small free game made by a tiny team and became hugely popular because players could create and share their own songs and characters for it.

Drawing Blocky Game Characters

  • Use straight-edged shapes — the slightly square head suits the pixel style.
  • Bold spikes for hair — a few big points, not many small ones.
  • Flat, bright colours — no fancy shading needed.
  • Confident pose — a raised arm and a smirk give him attitude.

🎯 Try This: draw the rhythm duo

  1. Draw Boyfriend on one side of the page.
  2. Add Girlfriend sitting on her speaker.
  3. Draw musical notes floating between them.
  4. Add a microphone in Boyfriend’s hand.

Get your pencil ready! Follow these easy steps and you'll have an amazing Friday Night Funkin'1 For drawing in no time.

What You'll Need

  • Pencil (HB or 2B)
  • Eraser
  • White drawing paper
  • Black marker (optional, for outlines)
  • Coloured pencils or crayons

Step-by-Step: Drawing a Friday Night Funkin'1 For

Step 1: Sketch the Basic Outline

Begin with a very light pencil sketch of the Friday Night Funkin'1 For's overall shape. What is the biggest, simplest shape that describes it — a rectangle, oval, or triangle?

Step 2: Add the Main Structure

Build on the basic outline by adding the main structural elements of the Friday Night Funkin'1 For. Break it down into simple geometric shapes.

Step 3: Draw the Key Features

Add the most important identifying features that make this recognisably a Friday Night Funkin'1 For. These are the details that someone would notice first.

Step 4: Add Secondary Details

Now add the secondary details — textures, patterns, smaller parts. These build up the drawing gradually and give it character.

Step 5: Refine the Outline

Go back to the outline and refine any shapes that don't look right. Compare the proportions to a reference image if you have one.

Step 6: Add Depth with Lines

Add shading lines or cross-hatching on the darker side of the Friday Night Funkin'1 For to create the impression of three dimensions.

Step 7: Trace with Marker

Once happy with your pencil drawing, carefully trace the final lines with a black marker or pen. Let it dry, then erase all pencil marks underneath.

Step 8: Colour Your Drawing

Apply colour to your Friday Night Funkin'1 For, working from the largest areas first. Leave white areas uncoloured — the paper's white works as your lightest tone.

Colouring Your Friday Night Funkin'1 For

Use real reference images as a guide for the Friday Night Funkin'1 For's colours. Start with a base colour and add darker shading on one side to give a 3D feel.
