How to Draw Ichigo Momomiya, Tokyo Mew Mew
I know it may have taken me a long while to fill this request, but I finally made the jump and went ahead and made this tutorial on "how to draw Ichigo Momomiya", step by step. She was requested by member 'yerdua2001' as well as by some other members that have sent me requests to turn her into a lesson. Now I'm not familiar with the series because I don't watch or read enough anime or manga like I used to, but I will try and do my best to write a short description on her character so you guys have an idea on who she is. Ichigo is one of the main characters from the anime series 'Tokyo Mew Mew'. In fact, I do believe that she is the main figure as well as heroine. Momomiya was one of the first Mew Mew's to be introduced to the world, and the writers did this when she was on a date with Masaya Aoyama. While she was at an animal exhibit, she is introduced to her future Mew Mews but she doesn't know that yet. Her D.N.A gets meshed with that of a Iriomote Wildcat when an earthquake suddenly hits the Red Data animal exhibit that she was visiting. She was injected with the D.N.A, and from there she started acting like a cat, as well as fighting like one. Her sweet looks and outgoing personality makes her a perfect leader for the Mew Mews. Surprisingly she was a lot of fun to draw, and I may even make more characters from the anime series and or manga. I know there is going to be a few of you that will enjoy drawing Ichigo Momomiya so have a blast with her, and remember to let me know if you have another favorite figure from Tokyo Mew Mew. I shall leave you all now so I can get some other fun lessons submitted. Peace out people and enjoy!

STEP 1.
Okay guys are you ready or what? Begin by making a circle shape for Ichigo's head guide. You will then sketch in the facial guidelines like so.
STEP 2.
Next, simply make the pointed V shaped line for her chin.
STEP 3.
Using the facial guidelines, draw out her eyes in a very excited manner. Of course these are only the lines for her eyelids so they have to be nice and thick. Sketch in the lashes, then draw the crease lid line as well as her eyebrows. End this step by drawing out the U shaped mouth and add some pointed teeth in a small scale.
STEP 4.
Continue to draw out her eyes by adding the shapes of them. You will color in the pupils as well as darken the top area from where the pupils begin. Add crease of cheek lines under her eyes.
STEP 5.
Now that you basically have her face all drawn out, you can begin drawing her head and hair. I would start in the front by making the two arches which will be the front part of her short, straight hairstyle. Make the bangs sharp and pointed as well as in a row, then draw Ichigo's cat like ears. Finish the style off by sketching out the shapes of the thick, pointed ears like so, then sketch in some detailing and definition through out.
STEP 6.
For your last drawing step all you have to do is draw in the shape of her skinny neck, as well as her shoulders and some of the arms. Draw the fury collar that Ichigo Momomiya wears around the neck, as well as the small pendant. Erase any mistakes and guides that you drew and made along the way.
STEP 7.
When you are all done tackling this tutorial, your drawing should look like the one you see here, or close to it. Now you can have fun coloring her in. I do hope you enjoyed my version on how to draw Ichigo Momomiya.Comments: Post Comment
