How To Draw Furry

Part One
Drawing furry creatures can be an exciting experience and bring smiles to both the artist and the person being drawn. With just a few simple steps and supplies, anyone can learn how to draw furry animals, whether for beginners with basic skills or for experienced artists who want to take their furry creativity to the next level.
The first step is to sketch out the basic ideas and proportions of the furry creature. Once these fundamentals have been established, the artist can continue to add the fluffy details such as fur, whiskers, and claws. An artist should use a pencil to sketch the furry creature, as it is easy to erase and tweak the design.
Next, the artist will draw the outline of the furry animal using a black pen or fine-tipped marker. Using thin continuous lines will make the drawing look neater and cleaner. If a strong contrast is desired, the artist can focus on making the lines darker and bolder.
Coloring is another integral part of how to draw furry. Crayons, paints, pens, or colored pencils can be used to fill in the fur or stripes of the characters. In order to get dynamic textures, the artist can use combinations of different colored crayons and markers. If going for a realistic look, the artist should focus on blending two colors for best results.
Ink can be used for crisp, definitive finishes. Pens, markers or felt tips are ideal for drawing thicker or thinner lines, and can make it easier to connect the edges and curve of the fur. Artists can also explore different blending tools such as blending sticks and sponges to achieve a perfect fur look.

The next step is to draw in the features to the furry creature. This includes the eyes, nose, and mouth. When selecting eyes, the artist should remember that there are so many varieties! From coy and mischievous to sleepy and wide-eyed, any desired expression can be achieved.
The nose of the character should be drawn in a realistic way too. For most furry creatures, a rounded muzzle with a black triangular nose should be drawn in. If the character has whiskers or tufts of fur, these should be drawn in too.
The last step is to add the finishing touches to make sure the furry creature is given character and life. Ears, claws, wings, and fur should all be part of the creative process. Also, clothing and accessories can be used to make the character more unique.
Finally, the artist can use accessories such as hats, scarves and jewelry to give the furry character a unique identity. And of course, don’t forget the fun swirls, stars and other fun details!

There are also a few helpful tips that can be used when drawing furry animals. To start, it’s important to learn how to draw in perspective. This will make the fur look real, and the characters could look like they are running or jumping off the paper.
Be creative with the fur texture. Hairs can be made out of long and short strokes, or swirls, to give the furry creature an interesting look. Different colors can also be used so that the fur looks glossy and shiny or soft and fluffy.
Proportion is very important when drawing furry creatures. The size of the eyes should be slightly larger than the fur that surrounds them, as this will make them look bigger and brighter. The mouth should also be slightly rounded and manageable, as if the character is ready to display a wide variety of expressions.
Finally, practice makes perfect. Even experienced furry artists can make mistakes, so experimenting with different techniques and styles is key to success. With patience and perseverance, anyone can learn how to draw furry animals – and bring smiles to those who love them!
Part Four
Creating your own furry world can be a lot of fun. Start by establishing a world the characters will inhabit. This can be anything from a fantasy, to a post-apocalyptic world, to animals in real-life settings. This can open up a vast range of possibilities when it comes to drawing furry creatures.
The type of furry character should match the environment. For example, if creating a fantasy, then dragons, unicorns or phoenixes are perfect options. But if aiming for a real-world setting, then cats, dogs and rabbits are the obvious choices.
Next, the artist should select how detailed the characters should be. If going for a cartoon-like look, then keeping things simple is key. Outline the eyes and fur with bold lines and add a few details. However, if going for a realistic look, then more strokes, shadows and even fur details should be added.
The poses of the furry creatures also matter when creating a furry world. The artist should think of the characters’ movements, expressions and even facial features. Is the furry creature in a sleeping, running or leaping position, or is it displaying a mischievous or sad look?
Finally, the artist must think of the emotions of the characters. Drawing neutral expressions is easy, yet capturing joy, excitement, surprise or anger is the essence of creating a furry world. Think of how the eyes, mouth and fur of the character will move and change to convey feelings and character.
