Steps To Draw Shinchan
The image below provides a brief guide for today’s drawing. To draw Shinchan step by step, follow the steps below.
Step 1: Start With Head
As shown in the photo, draw a slightly curved shape for the head, making the shape of the ear on the left, and a somewhat C-shaped shape going upward to complete the shape of the head.
Step 2: Draw A Hat
Above the head, draw a triangle shape with a slightly curved bottom. Then, draw a small circle at the bottom of the hat. Also, draw two curved lines at a distance for the eyebrows.
Step 3: Sketch the Upper Body And Arms
Draw a rectangle form with a slight curve at the button for the upper body. Then, extend two lines from each side of the body to the arms. Ensure the character’s body is tuned in correctly, as seen in the picture.
Step 4: Draw The Pajama
Now, draw two parallel lines extending downward from the bottom of the Sinchan’s upper body, ensuring they’re slightly curved to represent the bottom of the Sinchan’s outfit. For the left leg, angle it slightly upward from the back.
Step 5: Make Legs And Hands
Sketch small curves at the front of the character’s leg to represent the foot. Then, refine the hand of the character by adding little fingers, as shown in the picture.
Step 6: Add Facial Features
Then, below the eyebrows, draw two small lines to represent his closed eyes. Sketch a small circle just below the eyes to represent Shinchan’s mouth. This circle should look as if the character is opening his mouth.
Step 7: Add Texture To The Outfit
Let’s add a few small rectangles and triangles randomly scattered around the outfit and hat he is wearing. This will give the character an exciting touch.
This will complete our drawing part. Let’s proceed to the coloring part to make the sketch more enjoyable.
Coloring Shinchan
Once the drawing of the Shinchan is complete, start following the coloring process. We have selected some primary colors.
We started by adding black to the character’s eyebrows and hair. Marron was used inside the character’s mouth, and cream was used on the face and hands. For the pajama pattern, we used red, green, and yellow. You can complete the coloring process using the image provided.
