How To Draw A Tiger

Making art is a great way to pass time and express yourself. And if you’re feeling really crafty, you can create your own image! Here’s how to draw a tiger:

Start with the eyes.

To start, draw a circle for the eye. Next, draw a smaller circle inside of the first one. Connect these two circles by drawing a line from each center point to the other (don’t make them perfectly symmetrical). Finally, add an iris shape and pupil to your new tiger’s face!

Draw the nose and mouth.

Once you have the outline of your tiger’s face, it’s time to add some details. Start by drawing a few large ovals for the eyes and nose.

The shape of these shapes should be similar to the ones you used for your basic head shape (although they will be closer together), but make sure that they’re not perfectly round—that would make it hard for us to see that this is a real animal!

Next, draw a smaller oval inside each eye and nose shape as an indication of where its pupils are going to go in step 3 below.

Also, draw another small oval at each end of its nose as well as two short lines coming out from either side of its mouth area; these are meant to represent whiskers!

Draw the ears.

The ears are usually the hardest part of the drawing, so let’s start with those. Use a series of curved lines to create the ear, adding a few highlights and shadows to make it look realistic. You can also add some insides for extra detail if you’re feeling particularly fancy!

Next up: draw in the eyes and nose with two small circles on either side of your tiger’s head, then add some whiskers using short jagged lines coming out from them (the ends should be longer than they are wide). Don’t forget to draw extra-long ones around their mouths as well!

Add in more details.

You may notice that your tiger looks a little flat. It needs some depth! Grab your eraser and start to add in the fur on his body, then use a gray pencil to shade over the areas where there’s fur. You can also draw in his whiskers, which will give him personality and help him look more

three-dimensional. Next, draw out those claws with a dark brown pencil and make sure they’re sharp (tigers are fierce!).

Keeping with that same idea now is also a good time to add in those teeth—you don’t want them to be too short or too big! Now comes another important part: adding on his tail! This step can be tricky if you’re not used to drawing animals yet because you’ll need to remember how large it should be relative

to everything else on your picture (this is especially true if this isn’t just one tiger but many tigers). To do this properly without getting confused yourself, it might help if you’ve drawn out some guidelines first so that all of their bodies stay proportional as well as accurately scaled from one another.

When these steps are complete we’ll move on to coloring our picture using simple watercolor pencils; this technique works really well for creating soft lines around each shape being outlined by darker colors like black or brown tones when outlining shadows/shadows around certain areas such as eyes/mouths etc…

Create a body around the face.

First, draw a circle for the body. The size of your circle will depend on how big you want your tiger to be. Next, you should draw a triangle for the tail and a V-shape for the legs. Then, draw two rectangles as feet at the bottom of each leg. To finish off this step, draw a circle for his nose and ears near his face.

Add the stripes over the body.

Once you have the body shape of your tiger, it’s time to add the stripes. This is a great way to add dimension and texture to your drawing!

There are lots of ways you can do this. You could use a ruler to draw straight lines across the body, then go back over them with a pencil (or pen, marker, or paintbrush) before coloring them in with either markers or colored pencils.

You could also use a sponge that has been dipped in paint or watercolor and dab it onto the paper to create soft stripes that blend into each other as you go along.

Add shadowing in strategic places to give your tiger dimension.

Shadowing is the process of adding shading (darker areas) to your drawing. This is a great way to add dimension and depth to your drawings, so use it whenever you can!

Shading can be done with a pencil or other art tool. You can also use the edge of your eraser, which will give you different results depending on how soft or hard it is. The more pressure you put on an object, the darker it will be when shaded in that area.

You can shade in any number of places. You could choose to shade around eyes or noses, for instance; however, this might not look very good for every creature because some people have thin eye sockets and others don’t! There’s no wrong answer here either—just experiment until you find something that works well for your tiger drawing.

Shading comes in many different colors too: black (the darkest), browns/greens/yellows (medium shades), grays/blues/oranges (lighter). However! Take note that these aren’t necessarily exact matches between all animals since some may have black fur instead of browns or vice versa depending on their species’ habitat etcetera…

It’s easy to create your own tiger picture by following these steps.

Don’t worry about making mistakes.
Don’t be afraid to try new things.
Don’t be afraid to ask for help if you need it, or give up if you’re too frustrated.
