Chibi

Chibi ("short person" in Japanese), also known as "super deformed" or "SD", is a specific style of Japanese drawing meant to be cute. The characters are drawn in an exaggerated way, usually small and chubby, with oversized heads, to make them resemble small children.

Here are some drawings and paintings I've made in chibi style.
