Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below
You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1
Start drawing the cute dinosaur outline by creating three long and curved lines. Two loose parallel lines will form the neck. The third one will become the back. It will meet and overlap the upper neckline.
Step 2
Next, outline the front leg. Use two curved lines for the chest and shoulders of the dinosaur. From the shoulders, extend another line and double in half to outline the feet and shins. Then, draw short lines at the top of the legs and the base of the neck.
Step 3
Draw the remaining front leg. Again, stretch a curved line and double it back to itself to outline the elephant-like foot. Then, use “U” shaped lines to form the toenails on each foot.
Step 4
Draw the hind legs. Use a curved line for the top of the leg. Allow it to overlap the second line that doubles in on itself to complete the outline.
Step 5
Draw two curved lines between the front and rear legs, outlining the abdomen and the other hind legs. Use “U” shaped lines to draw the toenail as you did on the front foot.
Step 6
Head sketch of cute dinosaur cartoon. Use curved lines to outline the jaw, top and sides of the head, muzzle, and chin. Curve a line at the top of the head inward, not connecting to the other.
Between them, draw a series of “U” shaped lines to attach the crest or spikes on the dinosaur’s head. Use small “U” shaped lines for the nostrils and paint a small oval inside the nostril.
Step 7
Draw two ovals for the eyes. Fill in a smaller oval inside each box to represent the pupil. Glue a curved shape over each eye, forming an eyebrow.
Step 8
Extend two lines, one from the hind legs and the other from the dinosaur’s back. Let the lines meet at a gentle point, forming the tail. Outline the spikes on the top of the tail using a series of “U” shaped lines.
Step 9
Draw a line along the dinosaur’s back and attach “U” shaped spikes above it. Delete as needed.
step 10
Color your cute dinosaur sketch. Since no one has ever seen dinosaurs, we don’t know what color they actually were. Are they green or brown like this one? Get creative as you color your cartoons!
