Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Sketching Lala’s Face

Pencil sketch of Lala's face showing rounded chin and scalloped hair outline.

Start by drawing a soft, rounded shape for Lala’s face. Add a scalloped pattern for her hair and two small, simple ovals for her eyes. Teacher's Tip: Keep the face shape wide and gentle to maintain that classic 'chibi' aesthetic.

Step 2: Defining the Hair

Use long, sweeping curved lines to frame Lala’s face with her signature long hair. Add a short, simple curve for her neck. Teacher's Tip: Use smooth, continuous strokes to make the hair look soft and flowing.

Step 3: Drawing the Gown

Adding the gown shape to the character using soft, overlapping curved lines.

Sketch the outline of the gown using overlapping curved lines for the sleeves and the body. Teacher's Tip: Imagine the gown is made of soft fabric; keep your lines rounded rather than sharp or angular.

Step 4: Adding Hands and Feet

Detailing the character's crossed feet and simple hand gestures.

Draw the feet crossed over each other and add simple shapes for the hands. Teacher's Tip: Crossing the feet adds a sense of movement and personality to your character.

Step 5: Sketching Kiki

Sketching Kiki's face and hair alongside Lala to complete the pair.

Now, draw Kiki’s face and hair next to Lala’s. Use a smiling mouth and two small ovals for his eyes. Teacher's Tip: Try to match the size of Kiki's eyes to Lala's so they look like a balanced pair.

Step 6: Completing Kiki’s Outline

Adding the final details to Kiki's hair and gown outline.

Add a small tuft of hair on the back of Kiki's head and sketch his gown. Teacher's Tip: Use light, quick strokes to create the hair tuft to give it a natural, fluffy look.

Step 7: Connecting the Characters

Drawing the bow on Kiki's gown and connecting the two characters by their hands.

Draw the bow on Kiki's gown and show him holding Lala's hand. Teacher's Tip: Ensure the hand connection looks natural by overlapping the lines slightly where they touch.

Step 8: Refining Details

Refining the bow and ribbon details on the characters' clothing.

Finish the bow details and start sketching the feet. Teacher's Tip: Take your time with the ribbon—it adds a lovely decorative touch to the drawing.

Step 9: Adding the Cloud

Completing the drawing by adding a cloud base for the characters to sit on.

Draw Kiki's remaining foot and sketch a fluffy cloud around them. Teacher's Tip: Use irregular, bumpy lines for the cloud to make it look soft and airy.

Step 10: Color Your Masterpiece

The finished, colored drawing of the Little Twin Stars on a cloud.

Time to color! Use soft pastels for their hair—blue or brown for Kiki, and pink or blonde for Lala. Keep their gowns white with a pink ribbon. Teacher's Tip: Use light pressure with your colored pencils to achieve that dreamy, Sanrio-inspired look.
