Drawing an anteater: step-by-step for kids

Animals
Hi little artist! Today we are going to draw a very special animal: the anteater. He has a super long nose and a beautiful fluffy tail. Grab your pencil and eraser, and let's get started together!
1
Basic shapes of an anteater with a large oval and a small circle.
Draw a large horizontal oval for the body and a small circle for the head.
2
A curved line connecting the head and the body of the anteater.
Connect the head to the body by drawing a long, curved neck line.
3
Guide lines for the long snout and the four legs of the anteater.
Draw a long, thin shape at the front of the head for the snout and guide lines for the legs.
4
Thicker shapes for the legs and the bottom of the mouth.
Now make the legs a bit thicker and draw the shape of the lower jaw under the snout.
5
The outline of a large fluffy tail and a small ear on the head.
Draw a large, hairy area at the back for the massive tail and add a small ear.
6
Details of the face and the feet of the anteater.
Give the anteater a small eye and draw the toes at the bottom of the legs.
7
Sharp claws and small lines that look like hairs.
Draw sharp claws on the front legs and add some stripes for the fur.
8
The completed anteater drawing on a surface without guide lines.
Make the outer lines darker, erase the guide lines, and draw a line for the ground.
