Step-By-Step Images and Instructions
1.
Start with a black pen, and draw two long, curved shapes in the center of your page. Then add a second, smaller shape to the outside of each of these.
2.
Connect these two sides of the headphones with two sets of curved lines at the top.
3.
Add a curved “m” shape below this.
4.
Bring a curved line up from just inside the edges, and then bring these up with a sharp “M” at the top.
5.
Bring two curved lines down from the bottom of the curved “m”, and then add curves to either side, and join these at the bottom with a “bump”.
6.
Now, add a large curved shape, with a point at the right, to the center of the face. Add a curved shape to the bottom of this.
7.
Bring a curved line across on either side of this, and then bring these lines up, across and down.
8.
Add two circles inside this.
9.
Add a small “teardrop” shape to the top left of each smaller circle, and add a small circle to the right of each of these.
10.
Add another teardrop shape to the bump at the bottom of the face, and add a small circle to the left of this.
11.
Add a curved shape to the bottom of the face…
12.
And then bring a curved line across from either side of the face, and then take this down to two “points” at the sides. Continue the lines down, and then take them across and back up.
13.
Now, add two curved, “backward C” shapes to the right of the right headphone.
14.
Add another set of curved lines to the side of the other headphone…
15.
Add a curved line at the bottom to connect the two arms at the sides.
16.
Now, add a series of bumpy lines to the end of each arm for the hands…
17.
And then a curved line inside each of these, with bumpy lines at the bottom of each, creating the back feet.
18.
Add two “forks” inside each foot, emerging from the top.
19.
Use a black pen to shade the eyes, around the shapes at the top.
20.
Grab a black pencil, and shade the headphones on the side, and the section at the top…
21.
Use a brown pencil for the feet, the tummy, and the face…
22.
And then a brown pen to add color to the rest of the body.
And there we have it – a super cute monkey, having a great time enjoying his favorite tunes!
