Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Sketching the Main Body

Pencil sketch of a large oval representing the main body of an Among Us character.

Draw a large, rounded oval on the right side of your paper to serve as the main body. Teacher's Tip: Keep your pencil pressure light so you can easily adjust the shape later if needed.

Step 2: Adding the Helmet and Trim

Drawing the visor oval and a wavy cloud-like line for the Santa hat trim.

Sketch a smaller oval inside the main body for the visor, then add a wavy horizontal line above it to create the fluffy hat trim. Teacher's Tip: Use short, quick strokes to make the trim look soft and textured.

Step 3: Defining the Suit and Belt

Adding the belt and buckle details to the center of the character's body.

Connect the hat trim to the body with a vertical line. Draw a small square for the buckle and two long curves for the belt. Teacher's Tip: Ensure your belt lines are parallel to keep the character looking symmetrical.

Step 4: Drawing the Boots

Sketching the rounded boot shapes at the bottom of the character.

Add a curved horizontal line for the base and two U-shapes to form the boots. Teacher's Tip: Keep the boots rounded to match the 'Among Us' art style.

Step 5: Adding Leg Details

Refining the leg and boot structure with additional curved lines.

Draw two vertical lines beneath the buckle and add curves above the feet to define the legs. Teacher's Tip: This adds depth to your drawing, making the character look 3D.

Step 6: Creating the Hat Shape

Drawing the fluffy top of the Santa hat using rounded hill shapes.

Draw a vertical line on the left and use 'hill' shapes to sketch the fluffy top of the Santa hat. Teacher's Tip: Vary the size of your hills to make the fur look natural and fluffy.

Step 7: Drawing the Gift Sack

Sketching the large gift sack trailing behind the character.

From the right side of the head, draw a semi-oval that trails behind the body to form a gift sack. Teacher's Tip: Imagine the sack is heavy and full of toys to get the right curve.

Step 8: Adding Festive Details

Adding decorative star and heart shapes to the gift sack.

Draw a fluffy star shape and a heart shape on the sack. Teacher's Tip: Let these shapes overlap slightly to create a more dynamic, hand-drawn look.

Step 9: Final Outlining

Final ink outline of the Among Us Santa character with pencil lines erased.

Add a final semi-oval to the sack and outline your entire drawing with a black marker. Once the ink is dry, erase your pencil marks. Teacher's Tip: Use a thicker marker for the outer edges to make your character pop!

Step 10: Adding Color

Fully colored Among Us Santa character with vibrant red, teal, and blue tones.

Bring your character to life with teal for the body, blue for the visor, and classic red for the Santa suit. Teacher's Tip: Use a white gel pen or leave a small white space on the visor to create a realistic glass reflection.
