How to Draw a Cartoon Hedgehog
This time, we’ll show you how to draw a cartoon hedgehog wearing glasses. Every shape is kept as simple as possible, so even beginners should have no trouble following the steps.
How to draw a cartoon hedgehog step by step
Step 1: Sketch the hedgehog’s body
Begin with a large circle that will become the hedgehog’s body. Keep the lines light, since a few of them will be removed later. Leave enough room around the circle for the arms, legs, and spiky hair.
Step 2: Add limbs and guidelines
Draw two simple guidelines across the circle to help place the face. Then add the short arms and legs using rounded lines, keeping the body parts simple.
Step 3: Draw the facial features
Draw the hedgehog’s facial features. Use the guidelines from the previous steps to position the round glasses, nose, and mouth. Draw the pupils inside the eyes and the eyebrows above them.
Step 4: Refine the hedgehog outline
Erase the guidelines and draw the spiky hair around the head. Go over the remaining lines with a darker pencil to give the cartoon hedgehog a clean, finished look.
