10 steps · Medium · about 8 min

Print

  1. Step 1: The face

    In the middle of your paper, draw one big round face, nearly as big as the page.

  2. Step 2: Two eyes

    A little above the middle, draw 2 tall oval eyes, a good gap apart.

  3. Step 3: Droopy eyelids

    Draw a line across the top of each eye, from one side to the other, tilting up toward the middle.

    Tip Half-shut eyes look tired and poorly.

  4. Step 4: Tired pupils

    Under each eyelid, colour a black dot that touches the lid. Leave a tiny white shine in it.

  5. Step 5: Worried eyebrows

    Above each eye, draw a short line sloping up toward the middle of the face, like a little roof.

  6. Step 6: Wobbly mouth

    Below the eyes, start on the left and draw a wavy line with 3 small bumps. Stop on the right.

    Tip A wobbly mouth shows a funny tummy. Keep the waves small.

  7. Step 7: Two cheeks

    Under the outside of each eye, draw a small flat oval for a cheek.

  8. Step 8: Shine

    On the left, a finger inside the edge, draw a short curved line following the circle, for the shine.

  9. Step 9: Light green face

    Colour the face light green, eyelids too, going around the 2 cheeks. Leave the eyes white.

    Tip A green face is how an emoji shows it feels sick.

  10. Step 10: Dark green cheeks

    Colour the 2 cheeks a darker green. Go over your lines and your sick emoji is done.
