The pants-under-skirt combination is what makes drawing Sailor Uranus trickier than most other Sailors, and getting that layered look to read cleanly in line art takes some careful planning. This guide walks through how to draw Sailor Uranus step by step, and she fits right into the growing Sailor Moon collection on the site.
What the 16-Step Walkthrough Covers
The tutorial runs 16 steps and ends on clean black and white line art with no color. The pose has one arm raised with a clenched fist, which introduces some asymmetry to work through. Most of the detail work lands in the mid-section where the sailor outfit, skirt hem, and pants overlap, so the pacing slows down around steps 8 through 12.
Sailor Uranus Design at a Glance
- Short, slightly messy hair with a curl
- Large expressive eyes, confident expression
- Sailor-style outfit with pleated mini skirt
- Tight pants tucked into heeled ankle boots
- One arm raised, fist clenched near chest
If you want more practice with the Sailor Moon roster before tackling this one, Sailor Moon herself is a solid starting point, and Sailor Venus offers similar outfit proportions without the pants layer. Sailor Jupiter is another full-body build worth comparing for posture and figure construction.
Reading the Step Colors
Each step uses a three-color system to show what is happening at each stage:
- Red Color: lines added in the current step.
- Black Color: lines completed earlier.
- Gray Color: base sketch for structure.

Once the line art is done, drop your finished Sailor Uranus sketch in the comments. Seeing how different artists handle that layered skirt-and-pants section is always useful for anyone working through the same steps. New tutorials go up on Facebook and Telegram as soon as they are posted, a new YouTube video based on existing guides goes live every day, and Pinterest gets updated regularly too. If you want to go deeper into the Sailor Moon cast, Sailor Mars and Sailor Mercury are both worth adding to the practice list.
