Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below
You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1:
Draw a small circle at the top of the page as a guide for Judy Hopps’ head. First draw four marks for the height and width of the circle, then connect the marks with curved lines. Sketch lightly at first so that if it’s not right, it’ll be easier to erase. Don’t worry if the circle isn’t perfect. It is only a guide. If you still want a perfect circle, you can draw along the edge of a coin or anything with a circle.
Step 2:
Draw two intersecting curves inside the head, one horizontal and one vertical. These construction lines will help you place Judy’s facial features later on.
Step 3:
Draw two thin and long arcs on the top of the head to guide Judy Hopps’ ears. The height of these arcs should be the same size as the length of the circle. The arcs should be close together and their shape should be similar to an upside down U. Place the arcs slightly to the right side of the head, not directly in the middle.
Step 4:
Draw a thin and long triangle under the head to guide the upper part of Judy Hopps’ body. Start with a short horizontal line at the top, then add two long diagonal lines below. Notice the length of the triangle relative to Judy’s head.
Step 5:
Now draw the path for the bottom part of Judy’s body as a series of lines below the long triangle. This shape should also be similar to a triangle but with the top part hidden.
Step 6:
Draw a line similar to the letter V as a guide for the left arm. Add a small circle at the top of the line as a guide for Judy Hopps’ hand. Now, draw an angle line similar to the greater than sign (>) as a guide for the right arm. Add a small half circle at the end of the line to serve as a guide for the other side.
Step 7:
Draw two long lines under the body to guide Judy’s legs. These lines should be almost as long as the entire body and they should be slightly tilted. At the end of each line, draw a half oval as a guide for the foot. The right foot will point forward, so the half-oval will be narrower.
That’s it for the tutorial! For the next steps, use darker lines for a more complete drawing.
Step 8:
Lightly outline the eyes inside the head. Use construction lines to help with alignment. Judy’s eyes should be directly above the horizontal line and either side of the vertical line. The shape of the right eye resembles an egg. The left eye should be a bit smaller due to perspective.
Once you have the right shape and placement of Judy Hopps’ eyes, darken the lines. Make the lines thicker as well as make them darker. Add a series of short, quick strokes above each eye to show off the lashes. There should be a small gap between the lines to give the illusion of fuller lashes.
Darken the shape of the right eye and add eyelashes. Do not draw any eyelashes on the lower part of the eye. Just make the lines thicker. Draw a small curved line above each eye for Judy’s eyelids.
Step 9:
Draw a small curved line inside the left eye for the iris. Draw a circle inside the right eye for the other iris. Inside each iris, near the top left, draw a small circle to represent glare. In the center of each iris, draw a larger circle and color Judy’s pupils. Draw the pupils small at first, then enlarge them to the size you want.
Step 10:
Draw a thin, long shape above each eye for the eyebrows. The shape of the eyebrows is made up of individual hairs, so use short, quick strokes as you draw them. Judy Hopps’ eyebrows should be placed near the inner edge of the original circle. Follow the curvature of the circles as you draw them.
Step 11:
Draw Judy’s nose below the horizontal construction line. Start with a wavy line for the top of the nose. Then draw two diagonal lines below for the lower part of the nose. The end result should be similar to a triangle. Add a curved line inside the nose, on each side, for the nostrils. Draw a curved line made up of short, quick strokes above the nose to make the fur there.
Step 12:
Draw two curved lines under the nose for the top part of Judy Hopps’ mouth. These lines should start at the sides, then bend up in the middle, below the nose, where the vertical construction line is.
Step 13:
Draw a longer curved line under the upper lip for the lower part of the mouth. Add a smaller curve inside the mouth, attached to the upper lip, for Judy’s front teeth. Draw a line in the middle to separate the teeth.
Step 14:
Use the original circle as a guide to draw Judy Hopps’ head shape. Use short, quick strokes as you follow the base line of the circle to create a fur texture. Extend the left side of the head beyond the circle to shape the cheeks.
The line should extend downwards to create the neck. The upper right part of Judy’s head should be narrow, while the lower part protrudes to create the other cheek. Don’t forget to use short, quick strokes as you draw the shape of the head to get the fur texture.
Step 15:
Use the arcs on the top of the head as a guide to draw Judy Hopps’ ears. Use short, quick strokes as you follow the basic line of the guide to give the ears a fur texture. Make the shape of the ear more curved according to the original arcs. The top should be wider and the bottom narrower.
Step 16:
Draw a similar curved line made up of short strokes inside each shape for Judy Hopps’ inner ear. Use longer strokes for one side of the inner ear. The bottom should end with a pointed end.
Step 17:
Draw the shirt collar in a curved line on the right side of the neck. Extend the line to the right and make it curve up on the left side of the neck for the other side of the collar. Add a rectangle-like shape on either side of the collar for Judy’s vest straps. Draw a V-shaped line in the middle of the straps for the top of the vest.
Step 18:
Use the top of the original triangle as a guide to draw Judy’s vest. Follow the basic path of the tutorial as you bold the line drawn on the left side of the vest. Draw a horizontal curved line near the middle of the original triangle for the bottom of the vest. Add a curved line similar to the letter C on the right to open the arm. Add a line below it for hem.
Step 19:
Draw the body of Judy Hopps first by drawing the edges as you follow the guide’s path. Draw a curved line near the bottom of the original triangular path for the top of the pants. Add the badge on the top, right side of the vest. The shape of the badge resembles the letter W at the top, with a U-shaped curve below it.
Step 20:
Use the lines below the body as a guide to draw Judy’s legs. Draw a small triangle with roughly half-rounded corners on the guide for the knee pads. Add the edges of the left trouser leg by drawing vertical lines following the path of the guide. The top of the trouser leg should be wide and the bottom should be very narrow.
Now draw the left side of the right trouser leg into a long vertical line. Add Judy’s knee pads in the space between the paths in the form of a small triangle with rounded corners. Complete the right leg by drawing a curved line at the top, right for the hip.
Step 21:
Draw a small rectangle-like shape just below the pant leg to make the cuffs roll. Use the half oval as a guide to draw Judy Hopps’ legs. Follow the base path of the figure to create the legs. Draw a few curves on the left side for the toes and a curve in the middle for the forefoot.
Draw Judy’s feet on the right in the same way. First, draw the trouser leg in the shape of a rectangle. Darken the shape of the half-oval to create a sleeve and draw two short curved lines in front to separate the three toes.
Step 27:
For a more finished look at the ink, carefully brush over the final outlines with a pen or marker.
Step 28:
After inking, remove any pencil marks with an eraser for clearer drawing.
