This guide explains how to draw Luigi from The Super Mario Bros. Movie. The version shown here matches his animated design from the film, which is based on his game look but adapted for Illumination’s 3D style. The drawing isn’t too complex – just a few extra details around the hands, face, and accessories to keep track of.
Details to Focus on When Drawing Luigi
- Green cap with an L symbol on the front
- Smooth mustache and simple round nose
- Overalls with straps and a pocket at the center
- Collared shirt under the overalls with long sleeves
- White gloves and rounded fingers with one hand on the cap
- Basic shoes with thick soles and visible laces
- Neutral standing pose with one arm resting on the hip
Once you’ve finished this one, you might want to draw Mario in the same style next. You can also try Toad or Princess Peach from the same movie version – I’ll add them pretty soon.
What the Colors in the Steps Mean
- Red Color: shows the part of the sketch you’re drawing in the current step
- Black Color: marks the lines that were drawn in earlier steps
- Grey Color: is the base sketch to help position everything before you add details
