How to Draw Gian from Doraemon Step by Step

  1. Start with a big square shape for Gian's head, slightly rounded at the corners. His head is famously chunky.
  2. Add two small ears on the sides at the middle level of the head.
  3. Inside the head, draw a horizontal line halfway down for the eyes and a vertical line for the nose.
  4. Draw two small oval eyes with thick eyebrows pressing down for that grumpy look.
  5. Add a wide flat nose and a big open mouth — Gian is usually shouting or singing.
  6. Sketch a short thick neck and a chunky body in an orange T-shirt and brown shorts.
  7. Add stubby arms with fists clenched and short legs with shoes.
  8. Outline with fine-liner, erase pencil lines, and colour his shirt orange, shorts brown and skin a warm beige.
💡 Parikshet's Tip: Keep Gian's head very square and his eyebrows thick — those two details make him instantly recognisable.
