Drawing Cartoon Pigs in Three Simple Steps

cartoon pigs final

cartoon pigs st1Cartoon Pigs are one of the easiest animals to draw when you use the step by step method that I’m going to show you below. Looks cool and easy to draw; this is a win-win, so let’s get to it!

Step 1 - Circles

Start off by drawing two ovals, one for the body and one for the nose. We just use ovals because we want your cartoon pigs to be easy to draw. To make different versions try experimenting with different sizes and placement of the nose.

In the theme of keeping things easy just makes to circles for the eyes.

The ears are curved lines and shouldn't give you much trouble. You're having difficulties with them think of this shape as a "P" that has been drawn very loosely.

The legs are straight lines that connect at the bottom with a curved line. Notice that the legs get thicker as they move away from the body towards the foot. Doing this makes the legs more interesting than if the thickness was the same from top to bottom.

Step 3 -- Final Details

Add two ovals to the nose for the nostrils. Now, from the bottom of the nose draw a short, straight line. You will draw the mouth at the bottom of this line. Cartoon pigs should be happy so give this little guy a smile by drawing an upward curve for the mouth. Add a little dimple to the edge of the smile to make him a little bit cuter.

The tail is just two lines that curve together. Make sure that your tail is thick where it comes from the body and then changes to being thin as it gets towards the end. Feel free to experiment with an even curlier tail if you like.

Draw two more feet behind the two feet that you drew in the last step. You can draw these with a basic "L" shape that is curved along the bottom.

Finish the drawing off by adding two toes to each foot. The toes are simple curves and shouldn't give you any problems.

I told you this was going to be easy!
