Step 1: Guide shapes
Lightly sketch this oval. It only shows where the big parts go, so press softly. You will erase it at the end.
Step 2: The head
Draw a big rounded shape for the head, a little wider than it is tall. Add two pointy triangle ears on top, then curve the bottom into a soft chin.
Step 3: Body and feet
Under the head, draw two nearly straight lines going down for the sides of the body. Finish the bottom of each side with a rounded foot, leaving a gap between the two feet.
Step 4: Arms on hips
Start just under each side of the chin and draw a curved line out and down, like a bent elbow. Finish each one with a little curl so the paws rest on the hips.
Step 5: The flowing cape
Start at the right side of the neck and draw a long slanted line out to a pointy corner. Then curve back in with a wavy line that ends at the side of the body.
Step 6: The mask
Draw a wide rounded rectangle across the face for the mask, with a flat top. Make the bottom wavy, with a little dip in the center.
Step 7: Eyes
Inside the mask, draw two round dots, one on the left and one on the right. Fill them in nice and dark.
Step 8: Whiskers
On each side of the face, draw three short lines that stick out like little rays: one straight out and two slanting down. Keep both sides about the same size.
Step 9: The star badge
On the chest under the chin, draw a tiny short line, then a small five-pointed star hanging from it.
All done!
Erase the guide shapes, go over your lines, then color it in.

Tips for drawing a superhero cat
- Sketch the head as a light oval first, then add the ears on top. The ears are easier to place when you know where the head's curve is.
- The mask is the trickiest part. Draw the flat top line first, then the wavy bottom with its dip in the middle, so both sides come out even.
- Draw the cape after the arms, starting at the neck with one long, slanted line so it flows in one smooth direction.
