Anime artist Yoaihime has captivated a huge audience with her adorable chibi drawings, and now she's ready to share her secrets with you! Chibi is Japanese slang for 'short,' and that's an appropriate description for these tiny doll-like creatures.
In this book, you'll find tutorials on recreating their signature features and props, including dreamy eyes, mini-skirts, vibrant hair, colorful bows, and boba cups! You'll also practice drawing, coloring, and shading fully-formed versions of these vertically challenged, baby-faced characters and their kawaii little companions.
As a bonus, several pages at the back of the book will allow you to create your own original characters and add your own color and shading to several colorless cuties.
With Yoaihime's expertise and step-by-step guidance, you'll learn the art and technique of cuteness in no time!
