Chibi World Blog
Chibis may appear to be difficult to draw due to their unique form, but it is their uniqueness that makes them actually very simple to create.
There is no need to know the human anatomy when drawing chibis because it is your imagination that takes over when creating these cute characters.
Follow these easy steps to create your first Chibi character! *^_^*
Draw a circle. Remember, it doesn't need to be perfect!
Draw two little lines at the bottom of the circle to keep the neck short and thin.
Create a 1:1 balance when drawing the body. Making the torso and legs about the same length. Dont put any emphasis on the waist, simply make the torso more soft and round.
Draw two downward lines to represent the shoulders.
Broad shoulders creates a more rugged effect and reduces the cuteness.
Draw some thicker, chunky arms and legs for your character. Remember, Chibis are cute and round, so the chunkiness of their limbs will make them all the more cuter.
Hands and feet. There is no need to be super detailed when it comes to making the hands and feet. You can draw your Chibi to have little nubs as feet and their hands as two separate curved shapes.
One for the thumbs and another shape to represent the other four fingers
Exaggerate your character’s features for added cuteness! For example, if the character wears glasses, draw them larger. If the character has long hair, make it even longer. The same applies to the clothes of the character.
Now that you have drawn your basic Chibi, use your creativity to dress them up build your Chibi World!
