How To Draw Mario and Luigi
Do you remember playing the classic Nintendo video game and trying to figure out how to draw the two iconic characters? Well, it’s easier than you think! With a few simple steps, you can learn how to draw Mario and Luigi in no time.
1. Gather Your Materials
Before you start drawing, you need to make sure you have the right materials. You’ll need paper, a pencil, pens or markers, and (for more detailed drawings) colored pencils or charcoal. It’s best to use good quality supplies for a great final result.
2. Sketch Out the Basic Shapes
Start by drawing a circle for Mario’s head and another circle overlapping it for his hat. For Luigi’s head, draw a square and place it below the circle for Mario’s head. Then draw an oval for Luigi’s hat and place it overlapping the square. After that, draw two rectangles for each character’s body and arms. Lastly, sketch two circles for each character’s hands and two triangles for their legs.
3. Add Details
Now it’s time to add some color and details to your drawings. Using colored pencils or charcoal, draw in the characters’ facial features. Mario’s face should be familiar, with his black mustache, bushy eyebrows, and air of confidence. For Luigi’s face, give his eyes an eternally perplexed expression and add his green overalls and white gloves. Make sure to draw in the famous red and green color scheme for each character.
4. Outline and Color
Once all the details have been added, use pens or markers to outline your drawing. This will help everything stand out and define the shapes of the characters. Next, color in your characters using colored pencils to add the finishing touch. Even a simple drawing can look great with a little bit of color.
5. Erase the Guidelines
When your drawings are finished, it’s time to erase the guidelines you drew in the beginning. This will give your drawings a nice, clean look and make them look more professional. If your drawings are in pen or marker, make sure to use an eraser made specifically for that type of ink.
6. Enjoy Your Masterpiece
Now that your drawings are finished, you can admire your work and show it off to everyone. And who knows maybe you’ll hone your skills enough to become an artist like Miyamoto! Whether you’re a beginner or a pro, learning how to draw Mario and Luigi is both fun and rewarding. So get out your supplies and start drawing!
