Hi, this is Karin(@KarinMie_en).

Time passed away so fast when creating a character.
This article is “What I am aware of creating a character with a baby face”.

I made Aura, but to be aware of the same things for other races, I think that character have a baby face among the race.

Height, Bust Size and Skin Color

These are okay as you like.

This time, choose the whitest skin and the least height.

Hair Style

Choose with bangs.
It doesn’t matter that long hair or short hair, but bangs matter!

Face

It’s better that the contours of the face closer to round, but in some cases, it looks bigger than it is.
After deciding on the eyes and mouth, it’s necessary to consider the balance of the entire face.

A round face is conscious of the fact that the face is not vertical but horizontal.

Eyes

To choose rounded and puffy eyes.
I recommend darker eye color.

Another point is the wider the distance between eyes, the prettier your character looks.
The distance of between eyes can be made to look wider with eyeshadow.
Eyeshadow is included in face paint but blush is too.
It makes me wonder which one to choose.

Nose and Mouth

Choose small and round nose.
If there are similar shaped one but different nose position, I recommend middle.

Ideally, the mouth should be small and have full lips.
To choose a pursed mouth, duck mouth or full lips.

Face Paint

Face paint can choose only one, so choose either eyeshadow or blush, whichever you prefer.

Choose eyeshadow that is closer to the outer corner of the eye and choose a darker color.
You can choose any color you like, but if you are unsure, choose black or a color that is in the same vein as your character’s eye color to avoid mistakes.

For blush, apply a thin layer of pink or orange to give a fluffy impression.
For a natural look, choose a color so light that you can’t tell if your character is wearing blush or not, and it will look pretty.
