The written step-by-step video tutorial:
Intro: Start off with a pencil sketch. In the beginning stages, don’t press down too hard. Use light, smooth strokes for sketching.
Step 1: Draw a short, curved line for the shape of mini Belle's first eye. Draw another short curved line on the right side for the other eye. Sketch lightly at first to get the shape of the line right. Make the curved lines thicker to represent the eyelashes. Pay attention to the placement of the curved lines. Don't draw them too far apart. Draw two small triangle-like shapes on the left side of the first eye to emphasize the Belle's eyelashes.
Step 2: Under each of Belle's eyes, draw a small circle for the irises. The circle on the left should be close to the left tip of the line. The circle on the right should be closer to the middle of the eye.
Step 3: Inside each iris, near the top, left side, draw a tiny circle to represent glare. In the middle of the iris, draw a big dot for the pupil. Draw another big dot inside the other eye for the other pupil.
Step 4: Above each eye, draw a thick, curved horizontal line as a guide for mini Belle's eyebrows. The eyebrow on the left should be a bit shorter because of perspective. Near the lower, right side of the eye on the left, draw a small line similar to a less-than sign (<) for the nose. Under the nose, on the right, draw a short, curved horizontal line for the mouth.
Step 5: Draw chibi Belle's head by first drawing a vertical line next to the eye on the left. Make a small mark under the mouth to indicate where the bottom of the head will be. Connect the left side of the head with the line below the mouth using a long curved line. Continue drawing the line to the right and curve it up slightly to finish the bottom of the head.
Step 6: Above Belle's eyes, on the right, draw a diagonal line for the first part of the hair. Add another line on the left side so that both lines form a long line similar to a wide letter V. Draw a smaller line on the left side that connects to the head. Draw a very long curved line on the right side that goes farther to the right than the bottom part of the head.
Step 7: Above the middle part of the previous lines, draw a curved line that resembles the letter C. Now stretch that line farther to the right and dip it down so it meets the line in the previous step on the right. Add another line that starts at the top and curves down and to the left. End the line on the side of mini Belle's face.
Step 8: Draw a couple of curved lines above the front part of the hair for the top part of the head. Don't draw these lines too high up, otherwise Belle will end up with a big head.
Step 9: Draw a series of curved lines on the right side, next to the eye, for the side of the hair. The overall shape of this part of Belle's hair should be similar to a curvy letter V.
Step 10: Below the side of the hair, draw a small circle for Belle's earring.
Step 11: On the top, right side of the head, draw a curved line for chibi Belle's bun. The shape of the bun should be similar to a half- circle or the letter C on its side.
Step 12: Starting next to the earring, draw a long line that curves to the left for the rest of Belle's hair. Add the tips of the hair as spike-like shapes and a curved line on the left.
Step 13: Add the top part of chibi Belle's dress by first drawing a smll circle under the head. Now draw long lines on either side of the small circle to create the off -the-shoulder straps. Be careful to not overlap the lines for the hair on the right side. The end result should be similar to a long and thin bow tie.
Step 14: Add a couple of curved lines on the right side for more of the loose hair.
Step 15: Draw two parallel, diagonal lines on the lower, right side for the arm.
Step 16: Add mini Belle's hand at the bottom by first drawing a V-shaped line on the left for the thumb. Draw a line similar to the number 3 on the right for the rest of the hand. Add a line in the arm for the glove.
Step 17: Draw the middle section of chibi Belle's dress by first drawing a vertical line on the left side. Now add three curved horizontal lines at the bottom for the lower edge of the middle section. Draw a vertical line in the torso for extra detail.
Step 18: Add the bottom part of Belle's dress by first drawing a long, curved, vertical line on either side. Now draw three curved horizontal lines at the bottom that connect the sides of the dress.
Step 19: Draw a vertical line on the left side of the torso for the other arm.
Step 20: Draw a line similar to a less- than sign (<) at the bottom for Belle's hand. Add a line inside the arm for the glove.
Step 21: Draw two long, curved, vertical lines inside Belle's dress. In the middle of each line, draw a small circle.
Step 22: Draw a series of curved, horizontal lines on the bottom part of Belle's dress. The lines should connect the small circles from the previous step.
Step 23: Using a pen or marker, carefully go over the lines to make your mini Belle drawing permanent. After inking, get rid of every pencil mark with an eraser.
Final Step: Color your Belle drawing using color pencils, markers or even crayons! Use brown for the hair. To get a gradient effect on the eyes, color the top parts dark brown and the bottom parts light brown. Use peach for the skin. Draw the bottom edges of chibi Belle's eyes with the color and leave the insides white. Add a bit of pink to the cheeks. Use yellow-orange for the torso, the gloves and the curved lines on the bottom. Use regular yellow for the rest of the dress. Remember to pause the video to draw at your own pace.
