# Cute Doodle — Make a Cute Hand-Drawn Doodle of You

**Direct answer:** To make a cute doodle at [doodleai.art](https://doodleai.art), sign in, attach a clear photo, and run the [Normal skill](https://doodleai.art/skills/normal/) with a cute style prompt — chibi lean, thicker outlines, soft palette. You get one square hand-drawn doodle that keeps your features but reads adorable. Each run is 1 credit and refunds on failure; new accounts get free starter credits.

"Cute doodle" is a style, not a separate machine. The trick is steering the Normal skill toward rounder, softer, chibi-leaning output with a few prompt words. This page shows exactly how.

## Cute is a style overlay

The [Normal skill](https://doodleai.art/skills/normal/) redraws your photo into a hand-drawn doodle. To make it cute, ask for it: rounder shapes, thicker outlines, bigger eyes, a warm soft palette, and a simple background. The skill keeps your recognizable features and applies the adorable lean.

## Prompt for cute

> Make a cute doodle from this photo. Chibi proportions, thick soft outlines, big friendly eyes, warm pastel palette, simple background. Keep my hair and glasses. No text.

Add "kawaii" or "storybook" for extra softness. Keep the landmark list short so the cuteness does not fight the likeness.

## Cute without a photo

No photo to share? The [Surprise skill](https://doodleai.art/skills/surprise/) invents a cute fictional character with nothing attached — great for a cute mascot or avatar.
