How to Draw a Cute Anime Cat

Step 1.


Begin by making two shapes, one for the head and the other for the body. You will then add the facial guideline.

Step 2.


Using the first circle, you can start sketching out the shape of the head, as well as the long hair for the cheeks. Draw in the wide shaped triangular ears, as well as the tuft on the top of this kitty's head.

Step 3.


Using the facial guideline you will draw out the large doe like eyes. Color in the eyes like you see here leaving behind some areas of white. Draw the small nose and mouth like so, then add the cute whiskers. You will then add the lining to detail or   

Step 4.


Start drawing the body by sketching out a very fluffy neck line and chest. Draw the front parts of the legs, then add some lining to form the rest of the chest.

Step 5.


Finish the front legs and draw out the small anime cat paws. Add the toe lines, then draw in more hair on the elbows.

Step 6.


Here all you have to do is draw the back, butt, and hind leg for the cat followed by the back paw and some of the tail. The tail is going to be bushy, but you can go with any hair length you like.

Step 7.


Finish sketching out the frizzy looking tail like so, then begin erasing your mistakes.

Step 8.


Here is what your anime cat looks like when you are all done. Now you can color it in any shade you like.

Description: I haven't done any anime animals lately so here is one that was suggested by a member. It's on "how to draw a cute anime cat", step by step. One of the things I really like about this cat is the small nose and expression on the face. I can truly say that it's more of a traditional version anime cat unlike some of the other ones I made in the past. The black colored coat with the hints of grey for lighting makes this kitty shimmer on the page. If you are a fan of drawing anime animals, you will definitely enjoy drawing a cute anime cat. I have to get my other lessons prepared for submission so stay tuned in to see what they will be on. Adios amigos!
