How to Draw Chibi Expressions

Chibi characters are becoming more and more popular and there is so many things to learn when drawing Chibi faces, bodies, hair, and etc. Chibi is as you know, is a style that was developed from Japanese creators and designers. In Japan the word Chibi means, small person. Since these small characters are being drawn in a comical way to replicate some more popular anime/manga characters and these characters are also renamed to look like; Chibi Cloud, Chibi Axel, Chibi Goku, and many more of your favorite characters that can be turned into cute Chibi form. This tutorial that I am about to submit is going to teach you “how to draw Chibi expressions” in a very easy and cool way using some simple drawing techniques. Drawing Chibi is very easy to do because their faces are always drawn with big eyes, small noses, and small body parts. Along with their big eyes, they also have big heads. I think you will find this lesson very helpful especially if you are looking to get better at "drawing Chibi style“. After I submit this lesson, I will be back with three more Chibi tutorials that will teach you all the tricks of the trade on “how to draw a Chibi” to the best of your ability.

There is six different facial expressions that are commonly seen on a chibi face. So that means you will learn "how to draw a happy chibi, an angry chibi, a confused chibi, a sad chibi, and a surprised chibi face". Let's start learning shall we?

This is the last drawing step and as you can see this is where you will finish off each chibi expression. Draw the eyebrows on each chibi face and then add all the facial expression lines that will make every chibi look different in the face. My favorite is the angry chibi face. Erase the guidelines that you drew in step one and move onto the line art.
