Let me introduce you to a very strong and important woman from the movie Princess Mononoke. Her name is Lady Eboshi. She is the leader of a place called Iron Town (or Tatara).

She is not a simple hero or villain. She is a very complicated person – sometimes kind, sometimes very tough! Lady Eboshi is tall and elegant. She has black hair tied up with a pink ribbon. She is the only woman in the movie who wears lipstick!

She usually wears a dark red kimono (a traditional Japanese robe) with a big cloak over her shoulders. When she goes to battle, she wears a shorter cloak and a special red cap. Her name "Eboshi" actually comes from this cap!

Lady Eboshi built Iron Town as a home for people who were not treated well by others. In Iron Town, everyone has a job and a place to live. The women work in the iron forges, and the people with leprosy make guns. Everyone loves and respects Lady Eboshi because she gave them a new life!

Lady Eboshi is calm, brave, and very smart. She is a strong leader who always knows what to do. She is also kind to her people. She feeds them well, protects them, and treats them like family. But she can be very tough and ruthless to her enemies.

At the end of the movie, she promises to build a better Iron Town and not hurt the forest so much anymore. Now, let’s follow this tutorial to learn how to draw Lady Eboshi!
