How to draw a stack of Halloween kittens step by step
How to Draw a Stack of Halloween Kittens · tinyhandscreate.com
Step 1: Bottom kitten's left side
Start on the left and draw a curved line that swoops down like the left side of a big bun. Finish with a flat bottom line that has two little bumps for feet.
Step 2: Top face and middle body
Near the top, draw two small dots for eyes with a tiny smile between them. Below them, draw the middle kitten's rounded shoulders and body sides, then add the right side of the bottom kitten.
Step 3: Top kitten's head sides
Draw a curved line on the left and another on the right of the top kitten's face, so the eyes sit inside a round head. Add a tiny mark at the very top.
Step 4: Bat wings
On each side of the middle kitten, draw a wing with a pointed tip and a bottom edge of small scallops. Fill each wing in solid.
Step 5: Witch hat and bow tie
On top of the head, draw a flat oval brim and a bent cone with a curled tip, then fill it in, leaving a thin stripe for the band. Under the top kitten's chin, draw two triangles that touch in the middle to make a bow tie, and fill it in.
Step 6: The long tail
Start at the right side of the bottom kitten and draw a curvy line that swoops up and curls over at the top. Draw a second line back down beside it to give the tail some thickness.
Step 7: Middle and bottom eyes
Give the middle kitten two round dots for eyes, with a tiny smile between them. Then add two round dots for eyes on the bottom kitten, spaced wide apart.
Step 8: Bottom kitten's smile
Between the bottom kitten's eyes, draw a tiny wavy smile. Now all three kittens are smiling.
All done!
Go over your lines with a marker, then color it in.

Tips for drawing a stack of Halloween kittens
- Draw the bottom kitten first and leave room above it, so the stack does not run off the page.
- The bat wings are the trickiest part. Start with a pointed tip, then add the small scallops along the bottom edge.
- Draw the three faces with the eyes far apart and the smile tiny, and they will all look cute and matching.

Questions about drawing a stack of Halloween kittens
What shapes do I need to draw a stack of kittens?
You need three rounded body shapes, two wings with scalloped edges, and a bent cone with an oval brim for the hat. Two triangles make the bow tie, and a long curvy line makes the tail.
How do I make my Halloween kittens look cuter?
Place the eyes wide apart and keep the smile very small. Round, chubby shapes also help a lot.
How do I draw the kittens so they look stacked?
Start with the bottom kitten, then draw each kitten above it so its body sits on top of the one below. The wings and bow tie help hide the spots where the kittens meet.
