Big Guide to Drawing Cartoon Pigs with Basic Shapes for Kids

This is My Big Guide to Drawing Cartoon Pigs with Basic Shapes

This guide will show you how to draw many different pigs…all with simple shapes, letters, and numbers. If you can draw numbers and letters than you can also draw these comic-styled pigs. There are several pig drawing tutorials below and you can take bits and pieces from each of these tutorials to creatively design your own pig character.

Firstly Lets Think About What Features Real Pigs Have

When drawing a cartoon character of an animal, you first have to think about what sort of ‘features’ or ‘characteristics’ that animal has. So lets look at a pig…most pigs will have the following features:

(1) Cute floppy ears

(2) Long snout

(3) Hooves

(4) Most pigs are fat – fatter than the pic I have above

(5) Curly Tail

As we draw our pigs, we can play with those features to make silly looking creatures. But, as we do this, we have to make sure that the drawing always looks like a pig. Think of cartoons as caricatures of people and animals. Get as silly and playful as you want to. DRAWING SHOULD ALWAYS BE FUN!!!
