How to Draw a Kid in a Fox Costume · tinyhandscreate.com
Step 1: Guide shapes
Lightly sketch these 2 ovals. They only show where the big parts go, so press softly. You will erase them at the end.
Step 2: The hood
Draw a big wide oval for the fox hood. Keep it round and a little squished, like an egg lying on its side.
Step 3: The face
Inside the hood, draw a smaller oval for the face. Leave a little space around it so the hood looks like a frame.
Step 4: Smile and eyes
Add two small round dots for eyes, side by side in the middle of the face. Draw a little curved smile below and between them.
Step 5: Fox ears
On top of the hood, draw two pointy ears that lean outward, with each one starting and ending on the hood. Then draw a small curved line inside each ear.
Step 6: The body
Under the hood, draw a short line across for the neck. Draw a big V shape in the middle for the costume top, then add two sides going down.
Step 7: Arms and hands
Draw a curved arm on each side of the body. Finish each arm with a small circle for a hand.
Step 8: Feet
At the bottom of the body, draw two oval shoes side by side. Let them touch in the middle.
Step 9: The fluffy tail
Start beside the body and draw a long curve that sweeps out and up into a pointy tip. Close the shape with a curve along the bottom back to the body, then add a small curve near the tip.
All done!
Erase the guide shapes, go over your lines, then color it in.

Tips for drawing a kid in a fox costume
- Draw the hood oval first, then the face oval inside it. Keeping a similar gap around the face makes the hood look neat.
- Make the two ears about the same size. Draw the first one, then check how tall it is before you draw the second.
- Start the tail beside the body so it looks like it is attached. Draw the long outer curve first, then close the shape along the bottom.
