Draw it step by step

Six steps to a fox

New lines are purple. Lines you already drew turn light.

1

Start with the head

Draw a round top, two fluffy points on each cheek, and a pointy chin.

2

Two giant ears

A tall pointy ear on each side of the head, then a smaller point inside each one.

3

Give it a face

Two dot eyes, a round nose near the chin, and a little smile under it.

4

Draw the body

A body shaped like a pear under the head, with a round hip curve on each side. Your fox is sitting down.

5

Paws and a tail

Two little paws at the bottom, then a big fluffy tail that wraps round in front of them.

6

Finishing touches

A fluffy zigzag across the chest, and a wavy line near the end of the tail for its white tip. Now this fox is yours.

Go further

Now draw a fox sneaking past a sleeping dog.
