Hi little artist! Today we are going to draw a real lion. Grab your pencil and eraser, because we are going to work step by step. It's not difficult at all if we start with simple shapes!
1
Draw a small circle for the head and a larger oval for the lion's body.
2
Connect the head and the body with two lines for the neck and draw a long arc for the tail.
3
Place small guide lines on the head for the eyes and draw straight lines where the legs should go.
4
Now draw the shapes of the legs around the lines and give the lion round ears.
5
Create the snout at the bottom of the face and finish drawing the bottom of the legs.
6
Draw a small nose, the mouth, and don't forget to add the toes to the paws.
7
Draw the eyes and start with the large, hairy mane around the lion's head.
8
Finish the mane with extra strokes and draw a nice tuft at the end of the tail.
9
Erase all the guide lines and trace the outer lines of your lion extra thick.
