Step 1

Chibi is an anime style that exists to emphasize the comic image of the character- very small, about 3-4 times smaller than a regular anime. They are characterized big head, which takes 1/2 the height of the character himself, large eyes, very expressive emotions, small limbs of the hands and feet.

Please note: the arms and legs here are drawn differently from how we are used to drawing in any other anime genre.

Step 1. Start by drawing the basic shape of the head, guide lines for the eyes and soft shapes designate the bodies with a triangle. Draw circles around the head where the ears should be.

Pay attention to your ear. For a chibi boy it is larger than for a girl.

Step 2. Now you can draw Chibi's eyes.

Thick eye shapes are more 3/4 circle, then draw thin line along the iris of the eyes. Make your mouth in the shape of a turned letter (D) or a small smile. The nose is almost invisible.

Step 3. After erasing the lines of the eyes and half of the ear, you need to add width to the lines of the arms and legs on the body, making sure that they connect to the body.

Step 4. Now you can start drawing the scarf and shirt.

You can start drawing the scarf thick and wrap it around your neck.

Then draw the part of the scarf hanging from the neck. Add a loose shirt, a little bigger size than the body itself.

Step 5. Remove any additional body parts that will be covered by the T-shirt or shirt and we can move on to the pants! The girl's trousers are very easy to draw, you just need to widen them a little at the bottom and you're done. For boys: Pay close attention to wrinkles and baggy legs.

Step 6. Erase the lines of the legs, which will fit under the trousers and allow movement.

When drawing a chibi girl— her bangs should be long enough and fall apart into pieces. Don't forget to draw the hair that comes together at the front of the ear.

When a chibi boy is drawn, you can create many jagged lines starting from the top of the ear and working all the way to the center of the head.

Step 7. Now for the chibi girl we need to add something similar to the shape of an egg that hides behind her head. Then on the opposite side of the head we will draw a large curl. For a chibi boy, add swirls and erase part of the oval at the bottom of the head.

Step 8. Now for the girl we draw eyelashes in some parts of the eyes. Large at the top, tiny at the bottom of the eye. For the boy don't forget pay attention to thick eyebrows.

Don't forget the whirlwind in the ears for both of them.

All is ready - there are little chibis in front of you!

It is difficult for a mere mortal to imagine that there are many various styles, directions, branches in the field of manga and anime. For him, everything with big eyes, hair tightly sealed with varnish and weapons the size of its owner is one kind of product, flown in from distant Japan. In fact, there is so much diversity that there is none even in the plot of Carmelita. Based on countless requests from my beloved readers, I have prepared a lesson on how to draw a chibi with a pencil. Chibi is a style of drawing cute girls with a huge head and a frail body. As conceived by the authors, the style was created to display comical situations, although science does not yet know how size affects the level of laughs caused, but there is more than enough kawaiiness here. Some offspring believe that the heroes of the trashy cartoon Sauce Park are also chibiks. Such examples should be immediately punished and sentenced to the guillotine, because the legendary Sauce Park is America, where they only know about anime that it exists.

What can we say about Chibiks:

• Since the size of a chibi is much smaller than a regular anime character, their eyes are no longer half the size of their face, but half their body;
• They are another example of the fact that the Japanese strive to either idealize our world or distort it so that not a trace remains of this world. Strange narrow-eyed view of the world;
• Because of their big eyes and cute clumsiness, the amount of cuteness emanating from them increases by +100500 for each person;
• Mostly low-budget anime use these characters as a basis;
• The subject can be used as cookie cutters. It is important.

Well, well, try to draw them!

How to draw a chibi with a pencil step by step

Step one. First, draw a large rectangle on paper. Now add five circles inside that will turn into heads, and a few lines from them to represent the bodies.
Step two. First draw the hair and large eyes on the face, then carefully draw the small bodies.
Step three. If you like how everything is drawn, start adding shadows and shading the cuties.
Step four. Use an eraser to clean up the drawing and trace each line again. This is what should happen:
Want anime drawing lessons? There you are.

This lesson took me several weeks, but what's the point? Maybe it would make some difference to the fact that I'm not that good at drawing chibi. May be. Who knows.

I apologize for... this nonsense. I couldn't think of anything else to write here:/ Chibis are so simple that there's not much to explain about the process of creating them. The reason why I called this lesson a Mega lesson (haha) is most likely because I tried to briefly describe the process from sketch to computer graphics.

I hope this tutorial helps you, at least a little.

STEP BY STEP:

For beginners: Chibi's body structure is super deformed. The head is huge, but the body is very small compared to the head. Personally, I prefer to make the torso slightly longer than the height of the head. The shape of the chibi's body resembles, let me think... a bean?!

Step 5: The chibi line sketch should be created on a separate layer. Try to vary the thickness and saturation of the lines.

Step 6: Select and fill the base colors, each on a separate layer on top of the sketch layer.

Step 7: Shading.

Step 8: *optional: coloring the sketch lines.

CREATING A LINEAR SKETCH...

The main thing in a line sketch is that your lines don't look unnatural, which can happen if the lines are the same thickness everywhere. Try to start the line wide, and gradually narrow it towards the tip. The harder the pressure -> the thicker the lines.

The same steps were followed to create the chibi data.

1) Sketch the pose. The main components are: head (circle), chest (circle), hips (circle) and arms and legs.

2) Trace the lines to get a clean sketch.

3) Create a linear sketch based on the above technique.

4) Shade.

SOME POSE...

Sketching poses will become less difficult if you work with simple forms. Just be aware of different body parts. As you can see (in red), sometimes I don't make the torso "bean-shaped" but rather more rectangular. God, xD the chibs are so weird.

Using the samples in the picture above, you can create wacky pictures like these:

Hahaha

To draw such nonsense, you need to practice for a long time, did you miss it?

EMOTIONS...

What You'll Be Creating

Chibi is a subtype of Manga style where characters are given childlike figures that appear cute (small body, huge head, big eyes). Because of this extreme exaggeration, chibis are very easy to draw - no knowledge of human anatomy required! And once you can draw the base of a chibi, you can give her different outfits and facial expressions, which is also not easy to do. Thanks to this, drawing chibi can be a great practice for a beginner!

In this tutorial, I'll show you how to draw a base for a chibi girl, and how to create three different outfits for her: for a party, for a final exam, and for a medal ceremony.

What You Will Need

For a traditional drawing:

• Several sheets of paper
• Pencil
• Anything darker and thicker than a pencil (marker, capillary pen, etc.)

For digital drawing:

• Graphics tablet
• One sketch layer (low opacity)
• One layer for final lines (high opacity)

1. Draw the Chibi Base

The lines you draw should be subtle, so you can outline the final outlines with darker lines later.

Step 1

Draw a circle. It doesn't have to be perfect—it doesn't have to be a circle with one continuous line. Remember that the smaller the drawing, the easier it is to draw a similar figure.

Step 2

Draw a line underneath the circle, about the same length as the diameter of the circle. This will help us determine the ground underneath the character. Keep in mind that this is a classic chibi proportion, but can be adjusted to create the desired effect.

Step 3

Divide the line into three parts.

Step 4

Draw the basic shape of the body by drawing two curves on the sides.

Step 5

Select a section at the top to create space for the neck.

Step 6

Draw a circle under the neck - this will be the torso.

Step 7

Draw half a circle - these will be the hips.

Step 8

Draw two curves under the hips to close out the shape of the short legs.

Step 9

Draw the arms using another pair of simple curves.

Step 10

Add a curve below the arms to close out their shape.

Step 11

Divide the circle head in half.

Step 12

Chibi has tiny faces on huge heads. Draw the area for the face as a simple oval in one of the quarters.

Step 13

Add palms...

And thumbs.

Step 14

Draw two circles on the chest area to create the breasts. Don't make them too big - Chibi's whole body should be small.

Step 15

It's time for Huge Eyes Manga! For Chibi they shouldn't be too complex, although they should still be expressive. Draw two curves in the upper half of the face.

Step 16

Add two curves above them.

Step 17

Add a tiny mouth to better see the facial expression we are creating.

Step 18

Add simple eyebrows.

Step 19

Add an ear.

Step 20

When the work on the face is almost completed, we can safely work on the eyes. Add two ovals to the area we prepared for them. These are irises.

Step 21

Draw two smaller ovals inside. These are the pupils.

Step 22

Draw a curve for the eyelashes.

Step 23

Close the shape of the eyelashes. They should be thick and visible.

Step 24

Add outlines to shade the eyes.

Step 25

If you want to finish your drawing now, then take a darker tool/move to another layer and then trace the final lines. If you want to add to her outfit, then skip this step.
