In eight simple steps, you will draw an orangutan swinging from a vine. We start with basic shapes and end with the smallest details.
Stappen
Draw a small circle for the head and a large oval shape for the body with a guide line in the middle.
Draw a thick neck connecting the head and the body, and draw a diagonal line for the rope.
Make circles and ovals where the shoulders, hands, feet, and snout should go.
Connect the circles with thick lines to create the orangutan's strong arms and legs.
Now draw the fingers on the hands and the toes on the feet, and give the head small ears.
Give the ape a face by drawing two small eyes and a little nose in the snout.
Draw short, hairy strokes all over the body so the ape gets a soft coat of fur.
Make the outer lines extra dark with your pencil and erase all the guide lines you no longer need.
