Steps To Draw Chibi Pikachu
Here is a short preview of today’s drawing tutorial. This tutorial is for beginners and experienced artists; children can enjoy it fully. Follow the steps below carefully to draw chibi pikachu step by step.
Step 1: Draw a U-shaped
Begin by drawing a U-shape for the character’s head in the center of your paper. The basic shape of the head will help our drawing proceed easily.
Step 2: Outline The Hair
As shown in the picture, sketch the shape of the hair touching the character’s forehead. Ensure that the hair is drawn according to the character’s style.
Step 3: Complete Sketching The Hair
Add volume to the hair from both sides, as seen in the picture. Then, add a curve-shaped line just above the hair, completing the hair sketching process.
Step 4: Sketch Hoodie Cap
As shown in the image above, draw two large, pointed ears on top of the hood cap. These ears should be similar in shape to Pikachu’s ears.
Step 5: Draw The Body of The Character
Start by drawing a slightly curved line for the character’s back, indicating the spine curve while sitting. Then, add two arms facing in front of the character’s body. While drawing the character’s body, add shoe-like shapes at the bottom of the legs to represent the character’s feet.
Step 6: Create A Tail
Sketch a curved line from the back side of the chibi pikachu’s body. As shown in the picture, these lines should be wavy and pointed to create a flame-like effect.
Step 7: Draw A Mug
Next, place a square-shaped mug in the character’s hand to make it appear like she is holding one. Then, sketch some details on the hoodie of Chibi Pikachu.
Step 8: Sketch Facial Features
Draw two large, round eyes near the top of Pikachu’s head. Add a smaller circle inside each eye for the pupils. Sketch a small, triangular nose centered between the eyes.
Next, draw a wide, curved line below the nose to form the character’s smiling mouth. Also, you can slightly add black to the pupils to make it look more natural.
Step 9: Add Texture To The Hood Cap
First, sketch two circles close together to create the eyes. Shade them in black to give them depth. Next, add a small dot for the nose. Finally, draw a W-shaped line below the nose to form the mouth.
