Draw Froppy wearing a DIY star Sailor Moon crystal accessory; practice sketching proportions, inking outlines, and safe coloring with pencils and glitter glue.


Step-by-step guide to draw Froppy wearing a DIY star Sailor Moon crystal accessory
Step 1
Place your reference picture of Froppy where you can see it clearly.
Step 2
Lightly draw a circle for the head and add a vertical center line plus a horizontal eye line inside it to guide the face.
Step 3
Sketch a simple rectangle for the torso and light lines for the neck arms and legs to set the body proportion.
Step 4
Choose where the DIY star Sailor Moon crystal accessory will go and mark its spot with a small light shape.
Step 5
Draw Froppy’s big frog eyes and mouth on the face guidelines.
Step 6
Add the sailor collar and basic clothing lines so the outfit looks like a Sailor-style costume.
Step 7
Draw the star-shaped crystal accessory in more detail and add any ribbons or brooch parts.
Step 8
Refine your pencil sketch by cleaning up shapes and adding small details like fingers and shoe shapes.
Step 9
Trace your final clean lines with the black fineliner pen to make the drawing bold.
Step 10
Let the ink dry completely so it won’t smudge.
Step 11
Gently erase all the pencil guidelines to leave only the inked drawing.
Step 12
Color the big flat areas first with colored pencils to fill in skin costume and hair.
Step 13
Add shading and highlights with darker and lighter colored pencils to make the drawing pop.
Step 14
Carefully apply glitter glue only to the star crystal accessory and any tiny sparkly spots you want.
Step 15
Once your drawing and glitter glue are fully dry share your finished creation on DIY.org

Help!?
What can I use if I don't have a black fineliner pen or glitter glue?
If you don't have a black fineliner pen you can use a thin black marker (0.3–0.5mm), a black gel pen, or a sharpened dark colored pencil to trace the final lines (step 8), and for glitter glue substitute clear-drying school glue with loose glitter or metallic gel pens for the DIY star Sailor Moon crystal (step 13).
My ink smudged and pencil lines still show after erasing—how can I fix that?
Follow step 9 by letting the ink dry completely, place a scrap paper under your hand while tracing (step 8) to avoid smudges, and if pencil marks persist after erasing (step 10) use a soft kneaded eraser and very light strokes to gently lift remaining graphite without damaging the finelined lines.
How can I adapt this drawing activity for younger or older kids?
For younger kids pre-draw the head circle, torso rectangle, and the star placement (steps 2–3, 4) and let them color and add sticker crystals instead of using glitter glue, while older kids can refine proportions, add detailed shading and highlights with colored pencils (steps 11–12) and design more complex ribbons and brooch parts for the star (step 6).
What are some ways to enhance or personalize the finished Froppy drawing?
Make the DIY star Sailor Moon crystal 3D by cutting star shapes from craft foam or cardstock and gluing them onto the drawn star (step 6), add metallic gel-pen highlights and extra glitter glue accents (step 13), or create a themed background before sharing your finished piece on DIY.org (step 14).
