Steps
Step 1. Parts from the head and hair
The head has an oval shape, while the hair is usually long and slightly wavy.
Step 2. Now draw the neck and top of the costume
The neck starts directly under the head and the top is like a bra with shells. Continue drawing the torso under the top.
Step 3. Draw the tail
This starts from the belly and continues in place of the legs.
-
Draw like flower petals attached to the tail for the round part. In any case, the tail can also be done in a different way.
