Six steps to a three-eyed monster

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

1

Start with the body

Draw a big pear shape, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. Wobbly is fine.

2

Two short legs

Two stubby legs under the body, each with a round foot.

3

Three big eyes

Draw three round eyes in a curved row, the middle one a little higher. Put a dot in each.

4

A smile and two arms

A wide open smile with the tongue poking out. Then two short arms, one waving hi.

5

Three soft spikes

Three round-tipped spikes along the top of the head, like a little crown.

6

Spots on the tummy

A few round spots near the bottom. Now this three-eyed monster is yours.
