"Laputa: Castle in the Sky" is an animated movie, like the ones you watch on TV, but it's from Japan and it's made by a very famous person named Hayao Miyazaki.
In this movie, there's a place called Laputa, which is a magical floating island up in the sky. It's like a big, beautiful castle that doesn't touch the ground and can move around by itself.
Dola is a character in this movie. She's a woman who is very stylish and smart. Imagine her as a cool aunt who always wears fancy clothes and has lots of cool gadgets.
Dola is the leader of a group called the Air Pirates. They are a bit like the pirates you hear about in stories, but instead of sailing on the sea, they fly in the sky using big ships.
Dola and her crew are looking for Laputa because they think there's a lot of treasure there. They want to find it and use it for their own purposes.
But remember, just like in many stories, sometimes people who are looking for treasure might not always be the nicest people.
Even though Dola is a pirate, she's not all bad. She can be tough and sometimes scary, but she also shows that she cares about her friends and can be brave.
In the end, she helps the main characters, Pazu and Sheeta, who are trying to protect Laputa and its secrets. In today's drawing tutorial, we are going to learn how to draw Dola. if you like this character, follow the step by step instructions below and try it out!
