Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Sketching the Head

A light pencil sketch of a circle representing the head of Eevee.

Draw a light circle to form the base of Eevee’s head. Teacher's Tip: Keep this circle about the size of a coin and use a light touch so it's easy to erase later.

Step 2: Defining the Jawline

Adding a curved jawline to the bottom of the head circle.

Draw a curved line beneath the circle to define the chin. Teacher's Tip: Think of this as a soft 'U' shape that connects to the sides of your circle.

Step 3: Sketching the Ears

Drawing two large, pointed ears on top of the head.

Extend two long, curved lines diagonally from the top of the head, meeting at a sharp point. Teacher's Tip: Make them tall and wide to capture Eevee's alert expression.

Step 4: Cleaning the Outline

The head shape with internal guide lines erased.

Gently erase the overlapping guide lines inside the head and ears. Teacher's Tip: Use a clean eraser and brush away the crumbs so your paper stays smudge-free.

Step 5: Adding the Fur Ruff

Drawing the jagged, fluffy fur collar around the neck.

Draw a series of jagged, pointed lines around the neck to create the fluffy ruff. Teacher's Tip: Vary the size of the points to make the fur look natural and soft.

Step 6: Adding Head Tufts

Adding a small tuft of fur to the top of Eevee's head.

Sketch a small, wavy tuft of fur on the top of the head. Teacher's Tip: Keep these lines short and quick to give the fur a bouncy, light appearance.

Step 7: Drawing the Legs

Sketching the front legs and feet with toe details.

Draw four curved lines for the legs, adding small notches at the bottom for toes. Teacher's Tip: Keep the legs close together to maintain Eevee’s cute, compact posture.

Step 8: Drawing the Tail

Adding a large, bushy tail with a distinct tip.

Extend a large, fox-like tail from the back, adding a jagged line to separate the tip. Teacher's Tip: The tail should be large and bushy—don't be afraid to make it big!

Step 9: Adding Facial Features

Adding the eyes, nose, and mouth to finalize the face.

Draw the eyes, nose, and mouth. Use ovals for eyes, a small triangle for the nose, and a curved line for the smile. Teacher's Tip: Make sure the eyes are symmetrical to give Eevee a friendly look.

Step 10: Coloring Your Eevee

The finished Eevee drawing colored in brown and tan.

Color your drawing using brown for the body and tan for the ruff and tail tip. Teacher's Tip: Use light, circular motions with your colored pencils for an even, smooth finish.
