Step-by-Step Guide on How to Draw a Panda
Step 1:
Let us start drawing a panda. Draw an oval with a little extra bulge at the bottom. This will be the face of a panda.
Step 2:
Now draw the hands of the panda. It’s just like an oval but instead of joining at the bottom you take a curve upwards to make hands and then join the curve.
Step 3:
The panda that we are drawing is in the sitting position, so draw two circles below the hands on either side. Draw two small circles inside the circles you drew before. Join the circles at the bottom.
Step 4:
Now, let us draw the body of the panda. Join the hands to the circle with two curves on both sides. Also, join the two circles at the bottom to complete the body. To make it look more realistic draw the body in a way that makes it look fluffy and round.
Step 5:
Draw the ears of the panda. For this draw two semi-circles on either side of the face. The outer semi-circle will be bigger and inner semi-circle will be smaller.
Step 6:
Oh, now its time to draw cute adorable panda eyes. Make two slant ovals for the eyes patches. Draw a small semi-circle for the nose and draw to curves from the nose. This will be the mouth of the panda.
Step 7:
To complete the eyes draw one more small slant oval inside the eye patches. Also, draw small circles inside the oval to finish the eyes.
Step 8:
There a panda is almost ready. It is not time to draw the nails of the panda. For that draw three mini circles on each hand.
Step 9:
Complete the panda by drawing the paws. Draw the paw prints on each of the round legs we made.
Now that you have finished drawing a panda, it’s time to color this cute little ball of fur.
