1.
Start by taking a gray pencil and a drawing compass, and drawing a large circle in the center of your page.
2.
Use the gray pencil and ruler to draw a line down the center of the circle, stretching the bottom.
3.
Add two horizontal lines straight across the top of the circle, and another across the bottom. Then, add a shorter line in the middle.
4.
Add another horizontal line below the bottom of the circle…
5.
And add two short, vertical marks on either side.
6.
Use the gray pencil to add a small “v” to the bottom line in the circle…
7.
And then bring two curved lines down from the bottom to create a mouth.
8.
Add two small circles to the ends of the short central line…
9.
And then add larger rings around these.
10.
Add two small circles, one on either side of the nose…
11.
Add two small horseshoe shapes to the top of the circle, to create small ears…
12.
And then add two semicircles to the bottom.
13.
From the bottom of these, bring down two diagonal lines, meeting in a point at the bottom to form a heart shape.
14.
Add two small circles to the top edges of the heart…
15.
And then a horizontal line just above the point at the bottom.
16.
Add two more circular shapes to the bottom of the heart, making sure that these are slightly pointed at the bottom.
17.
Then, add two smaller circles inside these larger bottom ones…
18.
And a series of smaller circles above this for toes.
19.
Next, take a black fineliner pen, and go over the head and the details there, the feet and toes, the top circles, and the top and sides of the heart.
20.
Take an eraser, and remove all the pencil marks.
21.
Take a black fineliner pen, and fill in the bottom point of the heart.
22.
Now, add two curved sections to the bottom of the dots inside each of the eyes…
23.
And fill in the middle section with a fineliner.
24.
Grab a black pen, and fill in the outside of the bottom feet, the eyes, the top paws, and the ears.
25.
Use a pink pen for the points of the cheeks, and the details on the feet.
26.
Finally, grab a red pen, and use this to fill in the central section of the heart.
