Iron Man has been around for a LONG time. It wasn’t until the first movie came out that he really became a major character that almost everyone knew.

Today, we wanted to try a kawaii/cute version of Iron Man. It’s funny to imagine him in this form but we think it looks great : )

When you look at the finished image, you might think it looks hard to draw but most of the complicated looking areas are just tiny line details which we’ll show you exactly how to do.

Iron Man first came out in 1963 (Almost 60 years ago, wow!)

Pencil, Marker, Sharpie, Pen (Anything you can draw with!)
Paper (We love marker paper but use anything you can find).

Colored Markers (if you want to color the drawing).
Here are what we think are the best colored pencils, best gel pens and best markers for coloring.
Your imagination (feel free to change colors or add things to the drawing!).
