1. Drawing Basics<\/b><\/p>\n

Drawing is definitely an art form in itself, and drawing a panda can be quite tricky. But with a few simple steps you can achieve the look of a cuddly, playful panda in no time. The most important thing to remember when drawing a panda is to actually have fun doing it. Start by imaging in your mind what the finished panda will look like. Visualize the shapes, curves, and lines that will make up your panda.
\nOnce you have a clear image in your head, it’s time to start sketching. Take your pencil and lightly draw an oval which will be the head of your panda. Then draw a circular shape that slightly overlaps the bottom of the oval. This will be its body. Then, draw two ovals on either side of the panda’s head which will be the ears.
\nThe next step is to draw two triangles for the eyes. Add some cute details, like two circles for the pupils and two curved lines for the eyebrows. Now it’s time to draw the mouth. Draw a curved line that starts from the tip of the oval and ends just below the nose. Finally, add two triangular shapes below the eyes, these will be its cheeks. <\/p>\n

2. Shading the Features <\/b><\/p>\n

Now that you have your panda’s basic outline, it’s time to give it some life by adding some details. Start by adding an extra line which will be the nose of the panda. Then, draw two horizontal lines around its nose and draw a heart shape for its mouth.
\nShading is the next step to make your panda more realistic and lifelike. Start by using a very light colored pencil to fill in the area around the pupils. Then, move on to the cheeks and use the same light colored pencil to give your panda a nice, natural-looking blush. Darken the outline of the eyes and the mouth and blend it into the shading you’ve done before. <\/p>\n
