How To Draw A Cute Hedgehog with this how-to video and step-by-step drawing instructions. Easy animals to draw for beginners and kids.
Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below
You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1
Start by sketching the hedgehog’s face. Use overlapping curves to create the face, snout, and lower jaw.
Step 2
Start outlining the hedgehog’s plumage. Above the head, use short, curved lines that meet at jagged points to indicate shaggy coat. Do the same under the head, indicating the fur on the chest and abdomen.
Step 3
Continue using short lines of different lengths to shape the feathers and spikes. Wrap the whole form of the animal in this way.
Step 4
View details of the hedgehog’s face. Draw two large, watery eyes, using a circle within a circle for each eye. Draw an oval and a smaller circle in the inner circle and shade around these to form the pupil. For the nose, draw an oval at the tip of the muzzle. Draw a small circle to represent the shading, and fill the nose with color.
Step 5
Draw a series of short, curved lines that join together in jagged points above the animal’s face and along the animal’s flanks. This separates the sharp spikes above from the soft undercoat.
Step 6
Draw “V” shaped lines, some connected and a few, on the animal’s back to indicate stiff spines.
Step 7
Draw the feet using curved lines. Notice the overlapping lines to distinguish the toes.
Step 8
Draw the ears, erasing the guide lines as needed. For each ear, draw a small “C” shaped line within a larger “C” shaped line.
Step 9
Use some “U” shaped lines to form the rear foot, which protrudes from below the guard spikes. Draw curved lines on each side of the nose to indicate the beard.
Step 11
Color your hedgehog. Most hedgehogs are brown, tan, and gray in color. Some also have albinism, which lacks pigment in their feathers and is therefore white. If you want, you can get creative – color your hedgehog blue like Sonic, or black and red like Shadow.
