Step-By-Step Images and Instructions
1.
Start with a black pen, and draw a short, curved line in the center of your page. Bring two lines down on the sides, and connect these with a spiky line at the bottom.
2.
Draw a sharp point above this, heading towards the left side of the page, and then follow this with a curved shape above that.
3.
Bring a line across the bottom of the first point, and take this to the left. Curve it down, across to the right, and then down towards the bottom of the page.
4.
At the end of the line, bring a diagonal line across to the bottom right corner of the page, and follow this with a curve facing the right. Angle this up to the right, across, and then back up to form the leg. Add a hoof to the bottom.
5.
Now, bring two lines down behind this – take them in slightly at the top, and then flare out at the bottom.
6.
Add another hoof to this leg, and then bring a line across at the top, and repeat this for a third leg at the back.
7.
Add another leg just in front of this back one…
8.
And then bring the line of the back leg up and across to the left.
9.
Now, add a bumpy horn shape to the head, just behind the points of the forelock.
10.
Add two more strands of mane behind this…
11.
And then two pointed ears emerging from the mane.
12.
Next, bring down a series of wavy, angled almond shapes, one on top of the other, for the mane.
13.
Add a spiral to the bottom of the mane, and connect the back to this.
14.
Draw two curved, parallel lines at the back for a tail, and join these with a point at the bottom.
15.
Now, add another layer to each side of the tail, making it thick and fluffy.
16.
Add more layers to the end of the tail, and then end with a cute spiral.
17.
Grab a pink pen, and shade alternate strands of the tail, the hooves, and sections of the mane and forelock.
18.
Add color to a few more sections with a yellow pen…
19.
And then finish the mane and tail with a bright, vibrant blue pen.
20.
Finally, grab a black pen for the body.
And voila – a mysterious yet super cute unicorn, waiting for a friend – can you oblige with an entire herd?
