Big Mouth fills its cast with over-the-top personalities, and Lola Skumpy sits near the top of that pile with her theatrical energy and signature flair. This step-by-step guide to how to draw Lola Skumpy walks through her line art in 26 steps, pulling from the Big Mouth character lineup.
What the 26-Step Walkthrough Covers
This is a full-body line art tutorial with no background, so all 26 steps go directly toward building the character. She is drawn mid-stride with one fist raised, which introduces some asymmetry to manage. The tutorial paces detail work gradually, so the clothing and accessories come together in the later stages once the body structure is solid.
Lola Skumpy’s Key Design Features
- Long straight hair with widow’s peak
- Wide eyes, arched brows, open grin
- Pearl necklace and hoop earring
- Short dress with ruffled hem, low heels
- Walking pose with raised fist gesture
If you are working through the Big Mouth character set, Pete Doheny and Emmy Fairfax follow a similar full-body line art structure. Connie LaCienega is another good one to try alongside Lola since the two share some design overlap in pose and clothing style.
Reading the Color Codes in the Step Images
Each step image uses a three-color system to show what is new and what is already done:
- Red Color: lines added in the current step.
- Black Color: lines completed earlier.
- Gray Color: base sketch for structure.
