About the Guide
Our guide contains 10 steps, starting with the first 2 which are dedicated to sketching out basic proportions using light pencil strokes. We use a straightforward color-coding system to help you follow along easily:
- Red Color: Represents the current step you should be focusing on.
- Black Color: Showcases the lines you have previously drawn.
- Grey Color: Highlights the basic sketch.
Once you master Pikachu’s dance, you could consider adding more characters to the scene, like Mimikyu with its Pikachu-like costume or Pachirisu, another electric type Pokémon. How about a Pokémon dance-off?
