How to Draw AMONG US Mini Game Character

What you need

Step 1

Clear a flat workspace and lay down a spare sheet to protect the table.

Step 2

Gather all the materials from the list and place them within reach.

Step 3

Use your pencil to draw a simple rounded bean shape for the crewmate body on your paper.

Step 4

Draw the visor shape on the crewmate body with your pencil.

Step 5

Erase any extra pencil lines so the crewmate shape looks neat and clear.

Step 6

Step 9

Carefully cut out the crewmate shape with scissors following the black outline.

Make a background scene on another piece of paper and glue or tape your crewmate onto it.

Step 11

Help!?

What can we use if we don’t have a black marker or stickers?

If you don't have a black marker, use a dark-colored crayon, colored pencil, or sharpened graphite pencil to trace the crewmate outline and visor, and swap stickers for cut paper shapes or drawn details when adding accessories.

My scissors keep tearing the crewmate—how can I cut it out neatly?

When cutting out the crewmate in step 8, use small, sharp scissors, rotate the paper instead of the scissors for smooth curves, and pause to tape any small tears on the back before continuing.

How can I adapt this activity for younger or older kids?

For younger children, skip steps 3–8 by pre-drawing or printing the crewmate for them to color and use safety scissors with adult help for step 8, while older kids can add fine marker details, layered paper accessories, or more complex background scenes in step 9.

How can we personalize or improve the finished crewmate before taking the photo?

To enhance your finished crewmate before photographing in step 10, glue on small craft items like glitter, foil for the visor, or a folded paper hat, and arrange a homemade background scene with other cutouts to tell a story for DIY.org.

Facts about paper crafts and character design

🚀 Among Us launched in 2018 and became a global hit in 2020 — a perfect spark for fan art and crafts!

🎨 The crewmates are simple, rounded silhouettes — great easy shapes for kids to trace and customize.

🟦 There are more than a dozen crewmate colors in the game, so you can mix and match lots of palettes.

✂️ Papercraft can turn flat paper into 3D crewmates using just scissors, glue, and folding tricks.

🧠 Decorating and crafting help build fine motor skills and creative thinking — stickers and patterns are awesome practice!

How do I make a customized Among Us crewmate with kids?

Start by drawing or printing a simple crewmate outline on colored paper. Cut out the shape (an adult help for younger kids). Add a visor from shiny or white paper and glue it on. Use markers, crayons, stickers, and foam pieces to decorate with colors, patterns, and accessories like hats or backpacks. Layer pieces for a 3D look, let glue dry, then display the crewmate or attach it to a popsicle stick for play.

What materials do I need to customize an Among Us character?

Gather colored paper or cardstock, white or metallic paper for the visor, child-safe scissors, glue stick or liquid glue, markers and crayons, and a variety of stickers. Optional extras: craft foam, googly eyes, sequins, glitter glue, washi tape, and popsicle sticks. Use templates or printables for easier tracing. Keep a scrap paper area and wipes handy for quick cleanups.

What ages is this Among Us customization activity suitable for?

This craft suits a wide age range: toddlers (2–4) can join with supervision for simple coloring and sticker placement; preschoolers (4–6) enjoy cutting with safety scissors and basic decorating with help; school-age kids (7–12) can design detailed patterns and assemble layered pieces independently. Always supervise young children with scissors, glue, or small decorations to prevent choking hazards.

What are fun variations or extensions for this activity?

Try variations like a crewmate family portrait, create impostor vs. crewmate scenes, or make a whole game board backdrop. Use glow-in-the-dark paint, textured materials (felt, foam), or recycled cardboard for sturdy play pieces. Turn finished crewmates into bookmarks, magnets, or a mobile. For group projects, host a design contest or collaborative mural. Adapt complexity to age: simpler shapes for little kids, layered details for older ones.
