Barajou No Kiss Ninafu Drawing Tutorial

Hi! Long time no see/read! Today we'll be drawing Ninafu from the manga Barajou No Kiss. I'm planning to turn it into a birthday card later for my dad. Ninafu is super easy to draw and will do for pretty much any occasion. So let's start!

You'll Need...
A piece of blank paper
A pencil
Earser
Drawing tools

This is my rough draft!
Here's the picture we'll be using.

1. Ninafu has a circle head that's a bit like an ovals. 
2. His ears start near the sides of his head and ends around the middle. Draw a straight diagonal line at the start with a outward curved line at the end. Keep in mind that the diagonal line should only lift slightly. Make an outward curved line beginning slightly off the top point.
3. Ninafu has eyes the shape of an oval. Draw the oval with the point slightly facing each other. Position slightly above the middle and near the sides. Draw around the eyes and slightly inside a few times. Look below for a guide.
4. For me, the hardest part of drawing Ninafu is his teeth and head. His mout starts at about the center line. Ninafu has a really large mouth. The width is nearly the width of his entire lower face! When drawing the bottom of his mouth follow the outline of his face.
5. Now it's time for the teeth! D: Start by drawing his upper teeth. Ninafu's teeth are bigger around the middle and larger on the bottom row. Make triangles side by side. For the bottom row, make the teeth larger, place each teeth so that the point is slightly off the point of the upper row.
6. Now it's time for Ninafu's body. Ninafu has a triangle like body. The top of it is about two big teeth wide and the length is about the same as his head. A common mistake I make is making his body too fat. Make sure you don't do this!
7. In my opinion Ninafu's legs are a lot like his ears.We start at the pointy part of his lower body and draw a straight diagonal line. Draw a curved line a little above the end of his body. Do the same for the other leg but curve the bottom line a bit.
8. Before we start drawing his arms, we should draw the cream puff first. Start by drawing an oval-circle. Then draw the triangles that form the bun on the oval-circle. It's best to practice first. Then draw semi-circles facing one direction along part of the bun for the cream. Draw the bottom bun. Just make a line. Look below or the picture far far up.
9. Now faintly draw the cream puff on Ninafu. Then draw arms. From the bottom don't forget his curly tail! Since it's a birthday card I'll be drawing a birthday hat on him. This isn't the end though!
10. Now since Ninafu is a black purple colour, I'll be outlining him in black. Then carefully erase all your useless lines.
11. Colour!
Now you're done! I'll be back with the birthday card Turtorial!








Ninafu Birthday Card

BEFORE MAKING THIS READ BARAJOU NO KISS NINAFU DRAWING HOW TO

You'll need...
A blank piece of paper
Colouring tools 
Pencil
Earser
A black liner

1. Fold your paper in half.
2. Close your card so that the opening faces the right. Mark where you're going to draw Ninafu. This step is very important. I learned the hard way that not marking stuff can be BAD! (;^;)
3. Draw Ninafu. You can find a how-to if you press the Ninafu tag. Or look at the picture below and draw it yourself. Mark where your words are going to be.
4. Line all your important lines of Ninafu with your black liner. I like to out line his mouth (not his teeth!) but it's up to you.  Then if you want to you can lightly erase the unlined lines. I like to do this then outline them by pressing a matching colour pencil crayon. 
5. Colour! Here's my Mini-Guide to colouring Ninafu!

MINI NINAFU COLOURING GUIDE

1. Colour Ninafu lightly with a purple pencil crayon. For the flappy part of the ears colour the purple a shade darker.
2. Colour in with a black pencil crayon. THE BLOGGER NOW RELIZED SHE FORGOT THE WINGS. WINGS WILL NOW BE DRAWN. :D Add more layers if you think it needs to be blacker. I had to get through several layers to get it just right. (;^;)


BACK TO THE POST

6. Now colour the rest! When colouring the cream puff what I did is I coloured diagonally one way then crossed. Then I pressed my pencil crayon a little harder and outlined several of the lines. Finally where one cream puff section meets another I colour the line extra thick and dark while making it lighter one the edges.
7. Lightly draw out your words and decorate the inside.
8. Earase unessecery lines and colour.
I messed up on his eyes. *cries* (;^;)

9. Write down a message and you're done!
