Step-by-Step Drawing Guide

Step 1: Draw the Furry Head

Draw a wide head with pointed cheek tufts and a few spikes of fur on top. Add two tall triangular ears with small jagged inner-ear shapes.

Pro Tip: Leave a short opening under the chin for the neck and body.

Step 2: Add the Face

Draw two large highlighted eyes and a rounded muzzle between them. Add an oval nose and two curved lines for a gentle mouth.

Pro Tip: Keep the muzzle low and centered to preserve the large forehead.

Step 3: Draw the Overalls and Arms

Extend a rounded pair of overalls below the head with two shoulder straps and separated legs. Add a long furry arm on each side and simple fingers at the ends.

Pro Tip: Draw the straps first so the arm and body overlaps remain clear.

Step 4: Add the Bushy Tail

Draw a large tail curling out from behind the right side of the body. Use several sharp fur points around its outer edge.

Pro Tip: Make the tail wide enough to balance the oversized head.

Step 5: Draw the Trouser Cuffs

Add a thick rounded cuff around the bottom of each trouser leg. Use small side bumps to make the fabric look folded.

Pro Tip: Keep both cuffs at the same height above the ground.

Step 6: Finish the Wolf Paws

Draw a broad paw below each cuff and divide the toes with short curves. Let the paws point slightly outward for a relaxed stance.

Pro Tip: Make the paws wider than the trouser legs to support the character.
