Omg!!!!!!! My elsa turned out GREAT! The face is not so similar but when I take a glance at it- it looks so perfect! THANK YOUU!!!
some steps are unclear .. not mentioned. especially the braid. some steps appear in the next image but not mentioned above. 🙁
I want to draw her hand also! Pls add that to the drawing
What paints do I use to make this in color?
You can use any sort of paint, but if you have it available, probably acrylics would work best.
Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! It didn’t show how to draw the hand and the snowflake! But that’s ok. I found a picture and drew it myself. The rest of my Elsa turned out great!!! It looks just like the real thing!
This is a great tourtial! I’m stuck. The instructions on the hair braid are a little unclear to me, anyone got any advice?
Just a request to make–can you tell me at the beginning of the tutorial how big your paper is and what side of the page I should start on? Because when I drew my Elsa, I had to cut off her arm in order to fit everything. Now she looks perfect, but I would still have liked to see the arm more.
Hi there Jackie. Thanks for your comment. I drew this one on my computer with a drawing tablet. However, when I do draw on paper, a lot of times I get a drawing pad out – which is usually 14×17 …. maybe you could pick up one of those for when you are drawing detailed faces. I find that those are hard to draw small. I hope this helped you.
Thanks . i love my drawing very very
I’m only up to the guide lines and my friend said help me I can’t draw HAHAHAHA
Ps Happy Halloween.
I love Elsa but you have ruined my dreams.
( I CANT DRAW!!!!!!)
I’m sorry that I ruined your dreams!!! I still know you can do it if you keep trying!!!
Great tutorial! I loved it. could you maybe do a drawing tutorial on Jack Frost? Thanx!!! 😛

Booooooooo. I scared you

Thank you for the tutorial!
(btw hope you dont mind if i teach all my friends the braid XD)
Of Course…thats a great idea!
PERFECT!!! Good instrustions and i espaicaily like how you drew the new lines in red! that helped me ALOT… not to brag but i think i did good………REALLY good……….
Thank you! I’m so glad that the tutorial helped you!!!
For the dress, why is it cut off at the 1/3 point from one side of the body to another?
I don’t remember why I chose to do that…sorry!
~ I love this drawing! It’s amasing and i think i did a wery good job 😀
I kept messing up on my rectangles. Ugh!! But my picture looks realistic thaks to this tutorial. Thanks!
Uhh every thing was perfect in my drawing except the nose i hate it!!!!!!!!! 🙁
it was hard but worth it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
HOW DID YOU DO THE BRAID!!
I’m glad it helped you. With the braid…try to picture one strand going thru out the whole braid…it curves back and forth like a letter ‘s’. The the other strand goes thru the braid like a backwards letter ‘s’. I know it is really complicated…sorry that my tutorial didn’t help you better with it.
i liked it a lot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!but i had some problem drawing the eyes but at last i could do it.thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙂
Awesome drawing, but it takes FOREVER to do just the little rectangles on her dress!
The rectangles ARE VERY annoying! I agree! Glad you liked the tutorial!
