Start By Drawing A Circle To Represent Your Pitbull’s Head
First thing’s first, before you get to the complex stuff you’ll need to start at the beginning. Grab your trusty pencil and draw a lovely little circle, it will be the blueprint for your pitbull’s head. Make sure that you’ve kept your circle proportionate, it’s the foundation for your furry friend!
Draw Guidelines For Your Pitbull’s Eyes And Snout
Now you’ll want to bring your pup’s face to life by drawing guidelines for where your pitbull’s eyes, nose and ears should go. This part doesn’t have to be perfect as you’ll cover it up in the coming steps. Failing to feel intimidated yet? We knew you weren’t!
Map Out Your Pitbull’s Face
Your pitbull’s friendly face is lovable and unmistakable! When you map out their expression, you’ll want to pay close attention to their almond-shaped eyes and make sure their face is wider between their eyes and their snout. Once they’ve got some puppy-dog eyes, they’ll truly come to life.
Draw Your Pitbull’s Body Outline And Ears
Now that your pup’s face is mapped out, it’s time to move on to their body. Draw an outline for them based on the natural shape of their body, just like a husky’s would be oval-shaped. Now draw in their ears having the tops a bit curved inwards. They should be a triangle shape that comes to a point on the sides.
Fill Out Your Pitbull’s Feet, Nose, And Tail
Now you’ll want to make sure to draw your pitbull’s feet. You can either draw them large and pointed or draw them small, with rounded toes. When it comes to their nose, it’s good to keep it round and adorable! Make sure it’s a bit bigger than you’d expect. And don’t forget their tail–it should be wide at the base and come to a slight point at the end!
Outline Your Pitbull’s Body And Face With Detailed Lines
Once your pup’s body and face have been sketched out, it’s time to get your creative juices flowing. Outline your pitbull’s body and face with detailed lines to give them some more of their own charm. Don’t be afraid to exaggerate some of their features for some extra pizzazz.
Add Your Pitbull’s Fur And Color
Done with the detailed lines? Time to move onto the fur! Now it’s time to draw long, wavy lines over the outline of your dog to give them some fur. Then you can color it in with the shade of your choice to really bring your pitbull to life.
Give Your Pitbull Some Personality
Last but definitely not least, you can add your own touch to your dog by giving them some personality. Try adding a certain tilt to their head, draw them looking happily up at you or draw in a tongue that’s just begging for a cuddle. As long as you’ve been following these steps, your masterpiece should come out perfectly!
