Drawing the Red Panda is simple to do and is perfect for beginners of all ages.
Steps
-
1Place your paper on a hard surface.
-
2Take your pencil and starting one third of a way down the page lightly draw an oval for the head.
-
3Draw two half circles on top of the oval to make the ears.
-
4Draw a bigger oval connected to the bottom half of the first oval. This is the main body.
-
5Draw two small circles inside of the bigger oval for the paws.
-
6Draw a fluffy, curved tail connected to the bigger oval. Like a tube with a rounded end to make the tail.
-
7Go back to the first oval and draw two black dots for the eyes.
-
8Add another smaller dot between the eyes a little lower to make the nose.
-
9Take your red pencil and make a curved line from each of the eyes going down to look like tears. These are markings that the majority of Red Pandas have.
-
10Color the remainder of the drawing. Red Pandas typically have reddish brown, white, and black colors. Their tails are striped white and red/brown or red/brown and black. Their ears are white, and limbs/paws black. If you want, you can have white circles above the eyes for cute, round eyebrows.
