Recipes: Chibis!

Posted on January 7, 2010 by Jeff Hebert

I have to confess I don’t know what a Chibi is, but luckily for you, Hammerknight does! And he’s put together this very cool set of recipes for how to make your own with HeroMachine 3. Another masterful job by the Master Chef, thanks HK. Click on any page to see it in a larger, more legible size.

    Thanks guys. Chibi is what the Manga book called them. I don’t know much about Anime and Manga but I am trying to learn. If anyone has something they would like to see just let me know.

    Hammerknight, you had mentioned at some point possibly making a recipe for smaller sized races such as halflings and dwarfs. Any chance you might be willing to make that? I’d put it to some good use.

    @Jake, I can do that, some of it will be close to this recipe, but the head, arms and legs will be different. I’ll try to get it here in a week or two.

    If you need info on manga and anime, just ask me ;D I am supr obsessed and will be willing to offer my fan knowledge to anyone who needs it. My definition of Chibi is basically just a short, super small, deformed character.

    This was really helpful. Btw Chibi is short for Child Body. I think the idea is it looks a bit like child proportions. Hope it helps.
