One of the most memorable moments in the 2016 film happens when Félicie sneaks onto the rooftop to practice on her own. This tutorial covers how to draw Félicie dancing on the roof from Ballerina, capturing that scene where the orphan-turned-ballerina proves she has real passion for dance.
Sketching the Rooftop Dance Scene
This step-by-step drawing breaks down into 13 images, with the last one showing the colored result. The rooftop railing is included at the bottom of the drawing, grounding the scene in that specific moment from the film.
Félicie’s Rooftop Outfit
- Red hair pulled back in a braid with bangs
- Green eyes and freckled cheeks
- Black waistcoat with gold buttons over white blouse
- Rolled-up blue denim shorts over dark leggings
- Tan ballet pointe shoes with lace-up ribbons
This is the third Félicie tutorial on the site. The other two cover Félicie in her standard outfit and Félicie dancing in her white dress. Together, the three drawings track her journey from the streets of Brittany to the stage of the Paris Opera.
How the Step Colors Work
Each step image uses color coding to show what’s new and what’s already done:
- Red Color: lines added in the current step.
- Black Color: lines completed earlier.
- Gray Color: base sketch for structure.
