Using thin, straight lines, mark the position of the arms and legs. Depict the joints as small circles.

This is a simple but important step. Try to position your eyes correctly and give the necessary shape. Draw the eyebrows a little higher.

Draw the fluffy strand of hair above the forehead. Draw the outer outline first, then add the details as individual strands. On the sides of the head draw the ears.
