Noses and chins aren't always bad, as long as they're small and shallow enough! After all, our very own Gaia avatars have them, and I'm fairly certain they're chibi...

Great tutorial, especially for those who already know techniques to draw manga characters. I don't like to draw chibis, but at least I now know how to draw "good" chibis.
"Now know how"... I should try to learn proper english from now on, because I feel so "typo" often.[OffT]

Before I even saw this tutorial, I was already drawing Chibis. This is Edward and Envy from Full Metal Alchemist. However this tutorial gave me some really nice pointers! I used to do the 'chin' thing. Now I know how to make them look even more kawaii!

Heeeee! I draw my Chibi's with long skinny legs and arms. Ish that bad? *had this style ever since she was seven*

PS: I luffs yer cute arts! =3


No, that's not bad! Really, judging by the many many different kinds of chibis I've seen,, any kinds of arms and legs are good.. chubby, skinny, big hands and feet, little hands and feet.. it's all good. mrgreen

Indeed, you are quite right. X3 I guess I've just seen so many regular heads on chibi bodies that I felt I had to go a bit overboard.;; There are many ways to do chibis. mrgreen (and also many levels of chibiness)

Hmmmm... I dunno. I think that's something you should work out on your own. ^__~ Tutorials work best if you just use them as a guide to learning techniques and methods, you know? Instead of drawing exactly what you see, you should try to make use of each tip and technique individually. (not that there are many in this tutorial.;;; But most tutorials have a more detailed process, and that's where this comes in the most, I suppose) If you do that, you'll be able to draw a chibi from any angle and in any pose. It'll take a bit of practice, but that's just a natural part of learning to draw something new. mrgreen

Do you get what I'm saying?

If not.... then, well, here's this, too;;:
