BEGINNINGS
Decide on your pose. Have the character doing something. A pose where the subject is just standing is not as interesting.
You may want to use a piece of scratch paper to work out the position of your characters arms and legs.
Draw a stick figure in the position you want your character to be in. Next, draw the arms and legs, and body around the stick figure. The fairy has long arms and legs, but they have some slight curves to them also.
Once you have the basic shape worked out, then erase the extra lines of the stick figure.
FACE
Keep the face simple. Our example is in profile. The eyes are halfway between the top of the head and the chin. The eyes are simply a curved line going downward for the eyelid and a dash below that for the eye. The nose is just a triangle, and the mouth is a curved line for the upper lip and a little half-circle for the bottom lip. The ear is pointed, but if you have problems with the ear, you can cover it up with hair.
Keep the hair simple, draw it like long waves.
HANDS
The hands start out not quite square; the thumb is like a peanut off to one side. The fingers are four lines spaced evenly apart, and then draw a second line for each finger.
FEET
The feet are three circles, a big one for the heel, a small one for the ball of the foot, and a little one to be the end of the big toe. Draw lines across the top and the bottom of the circles to make the basic foot shape; remember the bottom curves up a little, and the top gets higher by the ankle.
WINGS
The butterfly wings may take some time to work out. They are like two triangles; one above is big and tilted outward, and the one below is thin and tilted downward. Use a separate piece of scratch paper and work out your ideas before drawing them on your project. Use long curvy lines to give the wings character. Draw circles, patterns, or diamonds on the wings.
CLOTHING
This example shows her dressed in leaves. You can design clothing from flowers, feathers, or anything. Some fairies may make cloth out of cocoon silk, so they might have flowing robes or dresses.
Color is your choice since it is a fantasy creature anything goes.
Give your fairy a world. Put her in a garden, a cave, or inside a tree hole. Have big flowers growing over her, so she looks small. Give her some friends like a robin or a squirrel, but make them bigger than she is.
