A Few Tips Before You Start Drawing

The hands and arms can be tricky. Take it slow and start with the thumb to help space and size the hand.

Let’s Draw Sonic The Hedgehog – Step By Step

How To Draw Sonic The Hedgehog Step 1 — **Step 1:** Follow the arrows from the front of the face. Continue around until you reach the bottom hair spike.

For the last line, you can start from the front of the face and bring it back to connect to the last hair spike.

How To Draw Sonic The Hedgehog Step 2 — **Step 2:** Draw the nose. It’s black so it might help you if you color it in now.

You can try the eye outlines next.

Follow the arrows up and down to create the curves.

Try and end the line around the same height as the top of nose. Finish off with the mouth outline.

*Note: If it helps, you can try doing the mouth outline first instead of trying to line the eyes with the nose height.*
