This cartoon rabbit is made from simple shapes: a round head, two long ears and a pear shaped body. Watch each step being drawn in pencil, then copy it on your own paper. It works for kids from about age 5 and for adult beginners too.
Copy the dark lines in each step. The grey lines are the parts you already drew.
Start in the middle of your page and leave plenty of space above for the ears. Draw a round head that is a little wider at the bottom, like a soft bun. Press lightly so you can fix it later.
▶ Watch this step
On top of the head, draw two long ears that stand straight up, a little apart from each other. Round off the tips. Inside each ear, draw a thinner shape of the same kind.
▶ Watch this step
In the upper half of the face, draw two big round eyes with a gap between them. Color them dark and leave a small white dot for the shine. Add a pink oval on each cheek.
▶ Watch this step
Between the cheeks, draw a small nose shaped like a soft triangle. Draw a short line down from it, then a mouth like the letter W. Under the mouth, draw two little square front teeth. Add three whiskers on each side of the face.
▶ Watch this step
Under the head, draw a body that is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, like a pear. On the tummy, draw a long oval.
▶ Watch this step
Draw two small round front paws on the tummy and two long oval feet at the bottom. On the right side of the body, draw a fluffy round tail with a bumpy edge, like a little cloud.
▶ Watch this step
Color the fur light grey. Leave the tummy, tail and teeth white. Color the inner ears, nose and cheeks pink. Keep the eyes dark.
▶ Watch this stepKeep your first lines soft, then press harder once you like the shape.
The ears are almost as tall as the head, so start the head lower on the page.
Draw one ear, then the other one the same size and height.
Draw the whiskers with quick, light lines so they look soft.
Trace your drawing with a darker pencil or a black pen so it stands out after coloring.
Color the fur light brown and keep the tummy cream for a wild rabbit look.
