Step 1.
Draw the head, body and tail
Draw a bean shape for the body and a squat bell for the head. Add an S-shape for the tail. Next, we’ll give the tiger some legs.
Step 2.
Extra Legs and Ears
Draw leg shapes on the near side of the body and add ovals for the ears and feet. Sketch a circle for the muzzle.
Step 3.
Drawing Legs and Muzzle
Draw shapes for the legs on the other side of the body and add ovals for the feet. Put the muzzle in, add a triangular nose and a mouth shape.
Step 4.
Face drawing
Draw ovals for the eyes and circles for the inner ears. Add details to the eyes and curves to the eyebrows, mouth and toes. Place in spots next to the nose for the beard. Add hair lines on the head, ears, chest and cheeks.
Step 5.
More stripes

Follow the last lines
