6. Wasp

This drawing tutorial of a wasp is more challenging not only because it's in color, but because it has a strong color next to a light color. It's very easy to smudge the black onto the yellow, so be very careful! You'll need to have great control of the grip on the pencil when conveying the bit of shine on the abdomen. Another area where the pressure applied on the colored pencils matters a lot is the base of the wings, where the torso can be seen through the transparent wings. You'll need to take care when drawing and coloring the wasp's thin appendages, especially where they overlap the body.

7. Dilophosaurus Dinosaur

This dilophosaurus dinosaur requires a lot of detail on the open mouth. That means you'll need to draw it big on your paper, and although a bigger drawing is not necessarily harder, but it is more time-consuming. In real life, Dilophosaurus didn't have a fray, but because is the movie version of the dinosaur, you will draw one. On the fray, you will need to add the pattern and accurate shading. Lastly, there is perspective in this drawing. The dinosaur's head is closer to the viewer than the tail, so the proportions need to be just right.

8. Werewolf

The human body is always more challenging draw because of the small details, such as fingers, toes and any visible muscle structure. With other animals, you can hide the muscles with fur and cheat a bit by only adding lines at the end of the foot to convey paws. When you draw a werewolf, you are adding claws to fingers and drawing fur while still trying to maintain muscle structure, which makes everything that much more of a challenge! Because of all the small details, such as the open mouth and the detail inside, you'll need to draw this werewolf big on your paper, and that means a more time-consuming piece. On the plus side, werewolves are mythical creatures, so you don't really have to follow the rules religiously. You can put your own spin on it, and it will be OK as long as your final drawing still reads as a werewolf.

9. Growling Wolf

For this advanced wolf drawing, there are some of the same challenges as the werewolf drawing above. There is detail on the fur and the open mouth. Granted there aren't fingers or muscle structure to draw, but because a wolf is a real animal and not something mythical that you can put your own spin on, you can't cheat or change its body structure. The fur must be right, and the gums, the teeth, and the eyes must be drawn properly in order to read as a pacing, menacing wolf snarling.

10. Roaring Tiger

This tiger drawing is possibly the most challenging How2DrawAnimals tutorial because it includes most of the features mentioned in the other tutorials, all in in one single drawing. You've got the small details on the open mouth and the eyes, so the drawing must be large. You've got the tiger coming forward toward the viewer, so you have to pay attention to the perspective and how the form recedes toward the back. You got different shades of fur, so you need good control of your pencil or get different grades of graphite. The stripes have to read as stripes as they recede farther toward the back. And you have the paw at the front with the claws extended. If you can draw this, you can draw anything!
