The disproportionately large head will make your chibi character look even cuter.
You’ll use these 2 lines as guidelines for placing the facial features. If you want the facial features to be even lower on the face, make the horizontal line in the bottom quarter of the circle.
Leave a gap the size of 1 eye between the eyes you drew. The line can pass through the center of the eyes or you can position the eyes so the bottom of the eyes rest on the horizontal line. Remember that you’re not trying to make the eyes realistic. Chibi eyes can show any expression, but they’re usually exaggerated, shiny, and bold.
The mouth can be as expressive as the eyes. For example, if your chibi character is in love, you might make their mouth heart-shaped.
Some chibi characters don’t have noses. Feel free to leave it off of your character if you like.
You could give your character a ponytail, pigtails, or ribbons to make the character appear more playful.
Keep the line light so it’s easy to go back and erase the pencil. If you prefer to draw your character turning, bending, or crouched, for instance, you can skip this step.
The upside-down V will distinguish the 2 legs.
If you like, you can make the hands more detailed by drawing fingers or jewelry.
Feel free to add accessories to your character. For example, if you’re drawing a chibi wizard, draw a cloak and staff.
