You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1
Start by drawing the elf’s head. Start with a long curved line to outline the shape of the face and jaw. Use a “C” shaped line to form the ear and another curved line to continue the hairline. Use another long curved line to create the top of the head. Then, use a series of curved lines meeting at points to outline the shape of the hair on the forehead.
Step 2
Draw a curved line below the head to enclose the neck. Extend two curved lines outward from the neck. Then, connect the lines using a zigzag line, forming the elf’s collar.
Step 3
Extend a long, curved line from one side of the collar. Double the line back on itself until it almost reaches the collar. This is the goblin’s arm. Then, draw a curved line across the top of the arm to indicate the hand.
Step 4
Draw two long curved lines from opposite sides of the collar. Allow them to meet the first arm so it looks like the two arms are overlapping. Draw a curved horizontal line below the arm to form the hand.
Step 5
Draw a curved line going down from each of the goblin’s arms to start outlining the torso.
Step 6
Use curved lines to sketch in the curved legs, filling the space between the torso and arms. Below the hand, extend two curved lines that double themselves. Enclose the shapes using curved lines to differentiate the legs and feet.
Step 7
Use a long curved line to enclose a curved shape on top of the goblin’s head. Above this, enclose a curved triangle. This forms the goblin’s pointed hat.
Step 8
Detail of the elf’s smiling face. Use curved lines to create the mouth, nose, inner ear, and eyebrows. Use circles for rosy cheeks and ovals for eyes. Detail the pupils and use small curved lines to indicate the eyelashes.
Step 9
Give the elf a shelf to sit on. Use straight lines to draw an angled rectangle below him. Draw short lines from each corner and connect them with long straight lines, giving the shelf a three-dimensional appearance.
Step 10
Color your elf on the shelf. His outfit is usually red with white details.
