1 Introduction
Drawing the Paw Patrol is fun for any artist regardless of skill level. Whether you’re a novice or experienced in Picasso’s craft, creating a simple sketch of this heroic pup posse is doable. If you’re ready to start drawing the lovable characters like Marshall, Chase, and Skye, this guide will show you how. With some basic tools, a few tips and practice, you’ll be drawing the Paw Patrol in no time!
2 Get To Know The Characters
Get familiar with the characters so you can draw your favorite pup. Start with the basics, like size and color, and look at plenty of reference images. Familiarize yourself with the clothing and tools they carry so you can recreate them on paper or canvas. Observe head shapes, snout sizes, and fur color and texture—these details will really bring your pup to life!
3 Draw Yourself A Template
Drawing a template is often the first step for expert cartoonists. To do this, begin with a wire frame for the body of the pup, like a stick figure. Sketch the generic shape of the pup from the waist down. Then move onto the head, using a circular shape for the dome. Once you have a basic wire frame of the pup, you’re ready to flow in your favorite pup’s features.
4 Outline & Color
Add detail lines to create a simple outline of the pup’s body. Add clothing details, eyes, muzzle, and eyebrows with some basic geometry shapes. Color your drawing with colorful mediums of choice. You can even use stamps, stickers, or stencils to add extra color or detail.
5 Finishing Touches
Now you can add finishing touches, such as accessories or trademark tools. Begin by adding the pup’s vest and backpack, complete with any symbols or emblems associated with him or her. To make your character look realistic, draw shadows and adjustments to fur texture. And don’t forget a sparkle in the pup’s eyes to bring the drawing alive!
6 Perfecting Your Drawing
One key to becoming a master of Paw Patrol drawing is practice. Keep your artwork in its simplest stage until you’re ready to move onto complex shapes and designs. And don’t be afraid to make mistakes. Mistakes lead to experimental masterpieces that you find you never thought you had in you.
7 Tools & Tips
No Paw Patrol drawing is complete without the right tools. Get quality drawing surfaces, pencils and erasers to perfect your craft. Buy some basic paint supplies if you plan to color your drawing. And above all, use reference images or watch tutorials to get a better technique or idea.
8 Make It Yours
The best Paw Patrol drawings not only reflect the pup’s trademark characteristics but do it with style. Experiment with color, let your creativity flow, and add your own flair to the pup’s illustration. After all, you’re the artist and your pup should represent your vision!
