How to draw a cute piggy

Cartoon tends to make the weirdest, hairiest snorting animals look really cute. This doesn’t apply to cats, which are cute anyway, of course.

So this time we’re gonna draw a really cute pink piggy! the method will be free doodling, so it might take a few tries to create each line just right, but remember that it’s still doodling > incomplete lines and shapes are really ok, and actually makes the cartoon look great.

This will be the final image:

I always start with the head: create 2 circles, one inside the other. The inside circle will be the nose. Then, draw the ears just above the nose, and the eyes in both sides of it. Add 2 nostrils and a mouth – in any expression you like.

Now – the body:

Don’t forget – there’s another leg behind… (the ‘behind leg’ is always partially drawn, you don’t see it all).  Also add the curly tail, and remove unneeded lines (in my case i had to delete a line inside the right ear).
