How to Draw Kawaii Pikachu: Drawing Tips

Lightly draw a vertical centre line as a guide to keep everything sweetly symmetrical and balanced.
Start with two big, squishy shapes: a giant gumdrop for the head and a smaller one beneath for the body. Think plush toy, not perfect circles.
Kawaii math: aim for roughly 50:50 head-to-body, but make the head feel slightly bigger than you expect. Extra big = extra cute 😆.
Pin on the ears, stubby arms and tiny feet using those guides so that they sit in all the right, adorable places.
Place the facial features low on the head: big eyes, small nose and a tiny smile, and watch your Pikachu go full kawaii.
