How to Draw a Simple and
Stylish
Cartoon Chicken




This cartoon chicken may look easy to draw, but there are a few little tricky
parts that you are going to have to look out for while you are drawing. To
start things off we'll create 3 different shapes. The two ovals will make the
main body and the tail. The upside down cup shape will make the head of
the chicken. Remember to hold your pencil lightly as you draw so that if you
make some mistakes they will erase easily.
Try and get the shapes similar to the example image to the left to make sure
that you are starting off on the right foot.
Step 2 - Detailing the Head
Add another circle inside of the main body cirlce. This will be the start of
the body of the cartoon chicken. At the bottom of the head make three
bumps at the base of the neck where it attaches to the body.
Add a little curve to make the beak and add a small simple dot for the eye.

Step 3 - Lots of Little Details
This step might look a little scary, but follow along here and we'll get
through adding all of these details. First for the head add a few little curves
to the top of the chicken's head. Then add two small circles under the
chicken's beak. You might notice that in this step a small part of the eye was
erased to show a shiny part of the eye. Adding this detail is optional, but it's
one of those things that really helps make your drawing look great.
Add lines for the feet. Notice that these lines are a little thicker than the
other lines of the body. This is a style choice. It's up to you if you would like
to make the legs thicker or not.

The last part of this step is to add some spiky details to the bottom side of
the tail. Follow the example image and try to match it as close as possible.
Remember to draw lightly because this part of the cartoon chicken will get
changed in the next step.

Step 4 - Finishing Up
First connect the two circles that you drew underneath the beak into one
shape. Next, add three bumps to the back of the wing to give it a more
interesting shape than the simple circle we had in the last step.
Now remember in last step when you drew the spikes on the bottom of the
tail? Well, I hope you took the advice to draw lightly, because those straight
lines were 'guide lines' that we can use to draw curved lines over top.
