First off, I wanna say welcome to the blog. But, I wanna get straight into writing this, so let's do it!
The first entry here is a tutorial on how to draw a "Super Deformed" character.
Dejichan does a really good job explaining how to draw these types of characters, giving a good explanation on what you can do to warm yourself up, and leaves post-production up to you. Make sure you check out this tutorial, as well as the other great pieces of art Dejichan has in her gallery.
Here is a quote on the style from Wikipedia:
"Super Deformed is a specific form of Japanese caricature, in which characters are drawn in a highly exaggerated manner. Those characters are typically small and chubby with stubby limbs and oversized heads. It is sometimes called chibi by some anime fans, though chibi is a different concept that refers more to a person's stature rather than the art style.
It is part of the Japanese culture, and is seen everywhere in Japan, from subway signs and advertising to anime and manga."
