Draw Charlie Brown

Do you like the comic Peanuts? Here's how to draw Charlie Brown, the cute, insecure main character.

Steps

1. Draw a big circle for his head. Add in ears on either side, tiny half-circles with nothing inside them.
2. Draw a wavy "3" shape for his hair. It lies flat in the middle of his head, right above where his eyebrows will go.
3. Add his facial features. Draw eyebrows, two dots for his eyes, a backwards "C" shape for his nose and a big smile.
4. Draw his body like a bottle, as shown. He has a fairly round body shape, with no differentiation between articles of clothing, so don't include a line of separation or anything like that.
5. Add in his arms, hands and legs. Draw flat ovals for his feet, fairly large for such a short guy.
6. Sketch his clothes. These should be a simple, short-sleeved shirt with a collar/stripe and baggy shorts.
7. Color and outline your drawing. Make sure no excess guidelines remain.

Tips

• Draw lightly in pencil so that you can easily rub out mistakes.
• Watch a few Charlie Brown episodes before drawing, it'll help!
• If you have a collectible or toy of Charlie Brown, use it as an example.
