How to Draw a White Wolf

Step 1.


Begin by drawing a circle for the head, then sketch in the outline for the wolf's body.

Step 2.


Using the facial guides begin sketching out the shape of the wolf's snout like so. Next, draw the lining for the mouth too.

Step 3.


Next up, sketch in the bottom jaw or chin like so, then sketch in the whiskers on the chin, muzzle, and then detailing on the nose tip.

Step 4.


Use the facial guidelines to draw out the eyes. Color in the pupils, then sketch in some fur on or under the eyes. Also detail above the brows.

Step 5.


You will begin sketching out the shape of the wolf's head which should be done by making a long flowing coat. The sides of the face should have long hair and the ears should be short cone shapes.

Step 6.


Continue on with sketching out the fluffy thick neck. Notice how the hair or fur is layered and wavy. Detail the chest in a manner to make the wolf look bulky and full of fur or hair.

Step 7.


Detail inside of the wolf's ears like so, and when you do that make sure to add some hair inside of the ears.

Step 8.


Next, simply draw out the front legs and paws which are touching one another. Also add some hair on the elbows.

Step 9.


Take your time as you sketch the body shape which is in a laying down pose. The hind legs are arched up as the leg and foot grips the ground. Add layers of hair for the outer lining of the wolf.

Step 10.


Simply add some toe nails, and more definition to the hair or body.

Step 11.


Sketch in the big puffy tail which is also resting on the ground, then also add detailing to the tail as well.

Step 12.


Finally, sketch the big boulder or cliff that the wolf is chillin on. Add the detailing to the rock or cliff by sketching out the cracks, indents and dimples. Erase any and all mistakes as well as guides you made.

Step 13.


That's it, your white wolf drawing should end up coming out looking like the one you see here. Color everything in and be sure to add more of a background to your wolf's surroundings.

Description: Since winter is here I wanted to make something really pretty that I know others would love just as much as me. Today I will begin my tutorial day by showing you all "how to draw a white wolf", step by step. I love the way this wolf came out. Instead of an angry, wild looking canine, I went with a subtle, relaxed wolf that is enjoying the winter snow as it rests upon a rock. I'm pretty confident that this lesson on drawing a white wolf will be simple enough to tackle, but if you are a novice artist you might run into some complications. Have fun and let me know if you enjoyed this tut.
