How to Draw Cartoon Leopard

I drew this cartoon animal a long while ago, but I haven’t uploaded it to the site until now. For my fourth tutorial I will be teaching you "how to draw a cartoon leopard", step by step. Drawing cartoon animals may seem like it would be pretty easy, and usually it is. But sometimes there are animals that are a little complex when you want to draw them in cartoon form. This drawing of a cartoon leopard was pretty simple, and what I liked most about it is the fact that I drew the leopard in a pose that makes the animal look like he is walking through his habitat without a care in the world. It is neatly drawn, and the spots are nicely drawn as well. This tutorial might be easier than you think when it comes down to actually using the lesson and drawing your own. If you want, you can add some of your own personal touches to make the sketch look more personal, and original. I always like starting a drawing with no concept in mind. What I mean by that is, when I figure out what I’m going to draw, I will add some random parts to the drawing in the background, or on the surface that the animal, person, place, or thing is standing or placed on. I guess it all has to do with personal preference. If you want to add something random, go ahead and do so, that is all up to you. Well that’s it guys, I will be back later with more drawing fun in a little while so stay tuned in to see what else I have for you all. Have fun everyone, and remember to join me live tonight with my special full session.
