Description: I promise I will have some exciting, and more challenging stuff for you guys to draw tomorrow, I just wanted to get the basic requests done over the past few days because I plan on doing some hardcore stuff that will turn your heads upside down. For the third lesson let’s learn "how to draw a buffalo for kids", step by step. I have to say something first; this is probably the best buffalo I have ever drawn and the funny thing is, it’s a 'for kids' based lesson. Now, if I like the way that this buffalo came out, I know for a fact that a lot of you will have a blast with replicating the very same animal or beast you see here. To make things even easier, I made sure to draw the buffalo from a side view stance so all you novice artists out there don't have to worry about tackling the face at full frontal view. The coloring also came out nice and I think I captured the very essence of this animal even in a for kids style. So go ahead and have some good fun as you embark on the journey to drawing a buffalo for kids. I shall return so stay tuned in and hold on to your butts. Peace people!
