How To Draw Baby Yoda

Let’s learn how to draw Baby Yoda from the Star Wars “Mandalorian” series.

Baby Yoda became a HUGE hit after the show came out. His other name is “Grogu” but most people know him as Baby Yoda. He’s considered a boy but looks more like a lumpy green potato to some people. Others find him absolutely adorable.

Baby Yoda has large eyes which matches our kawaii art style and makes it super easy for us to create a drawing tutorial without changing the character too much.
