Drawing Sonic Hedgehog is an easy and exciting adventure for everyone. Whether for a party or for personal creative pleasure, anyone can learn the simple skill of creating their own Sonic Hedgehog with a few simple steps. Ready to let this speedy hedgehog scurry out from your imagination? Here’s how to draw Sonic with ease:

Supplies and Preparation

Start by assembling all the materials and tools needed for drawing Sonic. Get a pencil, piece of paper, items for coloring-paper, sharpies, colored pencils, crayons and brush – your choice, and the most important thing – your talent! Then decide the size of your drawing. A normal drawing board will do just fine.

Outline of a Hedgehog

The first step is to bring the Hedgehog to life by tracing the outline on the paper. Begin by drawing the head which includes a circle at the top, oval eyes and a thin curve that shapes the neck and chin. Create a long thin oval for the body and draw multiply overlapping circles for quills. Follow up with two small circles for the paws and hands and couple of thin curves for the ears.

Adding Details

Now it’s time to give your Sonic his agility and charm by adding more definition to the frame. Start with the head and draw two curved lines beneath the eyes to give it distinctive shape. Create a rectangle on the quills to make the shape look more spiky. Draw two curved lines on two sides of the body and two other lines which will that shape the hands and the feet.

Coloring

Here comes the fun part. Choose whatever colors you like to make Sonic stand out. Give him a dark blue shade for the body, a pale yellow colour for the eyes and light grey for the quills. For his shoes or gloves – use a bright vivid color. Add a few vibrant details in the quills and his nose to make it adorable.

Finish up

Your Sonic is almost ready. All you need to do is to erase all the unnecessary pencil lines, to check if all figures are neat and accurate and if nothing needs to be changed. After that, your Sonic is ready to show the world his unique charm!
