Sketch the outline of the face. If you can imagine the position of the cheeks and chin, you can outline them now—if not, just draw a general outline that you will adjust later. Open mouth can be drawn easily when you think in forms—just keep the axis of rotation parallel to the line over the eyes. Mark the distance of the eyes—there should be space for three of them. Leave a thin band of empty space on both sides of the head.

Another thing to consider is the personality of the animal you’re drawing. What kind of emotions do you want to convey through your drawing? Is your animal happy and playful, or more serious and regal? Whatever personality you choose, be sure to communicate it through your drawing. Draw the "edges" of the hairstyle. Imagine the hair as a fabric that flows gently down from the head. The breasts, if present, are placed around the halfway point of the chest, and they're usually small to medium size. A few coats of acrylic spray will keep the jar looking lovely for years. 5. Make an Original Moana Bracelet Of course, the nose is more than just the tip—it curves towards the eyebrows. However, the part in between is usually ignored, to keep the face smooth.Because Disney animals can often speak, their mouth must be very human-like—you can draw normal lips on the front of the muzzle, and then adjust them to its shape until it looks convincing. Male lions are famous for their manes. Add the mane at the end, drawing it like typical Disney hair—simple and flowing. Although animals can be so different, they all can be drawn in a Disney style that makes them similar. How is this possible? It's about simplifying all the elements of the head in the same way: Next, add in the nose and mouth. For the lion, I like to make the nose big and round. And for the mouth, I like to add a little bit of a smile. The posters can then be embellished in any way the children like to make them extra fancy. 15.Frozen in the Snow

Understanding the Unique Characteristics of Disney Animals The same will happen to the diameters of each circle—in the front view, they will be straight, and in the side view completely curved. The in-between stages must be estimated according to this rule. Use these guide lines to draw the shape of the nose and the forehead. For lions, it's slightly away from the cranium. Once the basic sketch is complete, it’s time to start adding in some color. Disney animals are usually pretty colorful, so this is where the artist gets to have some fun. They’ll usually start with a light base color and then add in darker shades as needed. Today I’ll be showing you how to draw Disney animals, and how to finalize your drawing with finishing touches and accents.

The next step is to find the correct proportions of the face. Here I copied an image of Elsa's face (sometimes it's possible to find original character model sheets for this task) and marked the proportions on it—the line under the eyes, over the eyes, the eyebrows, the hairline, the chin, etc. Then I compared it to my generic Disney face to find out what makes Elsa special. I discovered, among other things, that: Let's start with the cranium. It's always drawn as a sphere, regardless of the shape of the animal's head.

Divide the shape into halves. In the side view, it's good to shift this middle line to the side, to create a more interesting and less confusing view.Outline the shape of the face in the final way. Keep in mind that females usually have round or pointed faces, while males tend to have sharply defined jaws. Step 2
