How to Draw the face of Stitch

Aloha to all aspiring artists! Ever been mesmerized by the endearing and iconic face of Stitch? His captivating visage is a blend of whimsical features and expressive emotions. But here’s some exciting news: Stitch is back with a little fix! In this revamped guide, we will be focusing on drawing his face with distinct ear notches – one on the top of his right ear and another on the bottom of his left. This subtle detail sets apart this sketching session from our previous one.

The Distinctive Features of Stitch

  • A blue-furred, koala-inspired appearance with aqua countershading surrounding his eyes and flowing from his chin to his stomach.
  • Large rabbit-like ears with distinct notches, each holding its unique place, which adds to his unique appearance.
  • His expressive black eyes that can shift colors according to his vision modes, whether it’s night, infrared, x-ray, ultraviolet, or binocular vision.
  • Though he generally doesn’t adorn any attire, there have been instances in promotional materials where he sports a red flea collar with a gold name tag.
  • And of course, his infectious smile lined with sharp teeth, which may come off as intimidating to many.

If you want to expand your portfolio with other Stitch drawings, why not sketching him in full growth or adding Lilo to the illustration?

The distinct notches in Stitch’s ears add a unique flair to his character. Begin by sketching the overall shape of the ears. Once that’s done, focus on the finer details like the notches. The key is observing and paying attention to the difference in positioning for each ear.

How can I perfect the different shades in Stitch’s eyes?

Stitch’s eyes are dynamic and can change colors based on his vision mode. While this guide focuses on sketching, you can use shading techniques with your pencil to differentiate the tones. Use lighter strokes for a green hue and heavier strokes for the darker shades like red or purple.

Achieving the texture of Stitch’s fur requires patience. Use short, swift strokes to mimic the fur’s texture. The length and direction of the strokes can vary, giving the fur a more realistic and layered look.
