How to Draw a Tiger for Kids

Step 1.


Start by drawing two shapes, one big round circle for the head, and then a small egg like shape for the body. Add in the guidelines for the face.

Step 2.


Now that the two body parts are drawn out, you can start sketching out the shape of the tigers head starting at the top, and then draw the ears, fluffy cheeks, and jaw.

Step 3.


Using the guidelines you drew in step one for the face, draw out two oblong shapes for the eyes, and color them in. Next, draw out the nose, and mouth or lips.

Step 4.


Now you will thicken the lining for the body like so, and then draw out the chest to create a neck line for your tiger.

Step 5.


You will now finish drawing out the body by adding the rest of the chest, and drawing out the front and back legs. Don't forget to give this tiger a tail.

Step 6.


What you have to do now is draw out the thick tiger stripes on the body like so, and then move to step seven so you can color in those bold stripes.

Step 7.


Like I said in step six, color in those thick bold stripes. When that is done you can draw in a few whiskers, and then erase the lines and shapes that you drew in step one to clean up your big cat.

Step 8.


Awe look how cute the tiger looks when you are all done. Now you can color it in and give this adorable tiger a name. Great work guys!
