America’s No. 1 Hero brought All Might energy to an international scale, and her game design in MHA: All’s Justice does her justice. This tutorial shows how to draw Star and Stripe, the hero known as Cathleen Bate from My Hero Academia.
Bringing America’s Top Hero to the Page
The full drawing process runs through 25 steps, with the last one showing the colored result. Star and Stripe has one of the most detail-heavy costumes in the MHA roster, so the early construction phase matters a lot here. Getting the proportions and body structure locked in first keeps everything manageable once the stripes, stars, and cape start piling on.
Star and Stripe’s Costume Breakdown
- Long blonde hair with All Might-style tufts
- Red domino mask over eyes
- Red-and-white striped upper torso and cape
- Blue bodysuit with gold details and boots
- Star-studded gauntlets and high collar
- Long striped cape resembling the U.S. flag
Star and Stripe modeled herself after All Might, so drawing them side by side works well. Armored All Might is already on the site, along with his true form from Season 7. For another All’s Justice character, Ochaco in her new hero costume from the same game is worth trying next.
Three Colors, One Simple System
Here is what each line color means across all 25 steps:
- Red Color: lines added in the current step.
- Black Color: lines completed earlier.
- Gray Color: base sketch for structure.
