To draw this cartoon Chipmunk step by step, follow along with the video tutorial below and pause the video after each step to draw at your own pace. You may find it easier to follow the step-by-step drawings below the video. The new lines in each step are shown in red, so you'll know exactly what to draw next. You may want to open the video in a new tab and use both drawing methods. Take your time and draw at your own pace.

Written step-by-step video tutorial:

For the first few steps, don't press down too hard with your pencil. Use light, smooth strokes to begin.

Step 1: Draw two small ovals for the chipmunk's eyes. Sketch lightly at first so that it's easy to erase if you make a mistake. When you get the shapes right, darken the lines. Inside each eye, draw two tiny circles to represent glare. Shade the eyes but don't overlap the tiny glare circles.

Step 2: Between the eyes, near the bottom, draw a tiny triangle for the chipmunk's nose.

Step 3: Below the nose, draw a wavy that's line similar to the letter W for the mouth. Under the mouth, draw a curved for the chipmunk's front teeth. Add a short line inside the shape to separate the teeth.

Step 4: Draw a short, curved line close to the eye on the right side for the chipmunk's cheek. Now continue to draw the same line upward and curve it to the left to create the side of the head.

Step 5: At the top of the head, draw a series of curved, spiky shapes for a bit of hair. Curve the chipmunk's hair in toward the head. Notice how high above the eyes the hair is.
