Hello! My name is Phoebe, but I’m also known as Bobblejot. I started drawing at a very young age, but only settled into my current kawaii (Japanese for “cute”) style of illustrating about two years ago. Last year, I created a webcomic about a corgi dog and a Munchkin cat called Tori and Samuel. Since then, I’ve been creating content for it and sharing it on social media platforms such as Instagram and Webtoon on a weekly basis. I was inspired to take the step toward creating a webcomic by a character I created and grew really fond of, and I hope that this book will be able to help you on your road to creating your own set of adorable “chibi” characters and mascots! How to Use This Book After some helpful information here in the beginning of the book about Tools and Tips and Tricks for drawing, there are sixty-two step-by-step tutorials divided into four sections: Slither and Squawk, Felines and Canines, Hooves and Horns, and Earth, Water, and Subterranean Creatures. The creatures within each section are arranged alphabetically, for the most part (there are a few out of order for layout purposes). Some tutorials are even accompanied by a Folklore Fact, making this book not only an art book, but also a little educational. Let’s get started! Coloring In this book, you will learn how to draw chibi creatures, but if you would like to color your characters, here’s how you can add color to your drawing after you’ve inked your character. 1. Start with your inked creature. 2. Add any distinctive markings to your character. Make sure to draw these markings in pencil, if you’re drawing by hand, or on a separate sketch layer, if you’re drawing digitally. You will erase/remove these lines when you’re finished coloring in the markings. 3A. If you’re coloring your artwork by hand, with colored pencils, Copic markers, or watercolors, fill in the sections with the different colors. 3B. If you’re coloring your artwork digitally, fill in the overall outline with the character’s most basic color. You can then add the colors for the markings layer by layer.
