Step 11: Under the Thanksgiving turkey's body, on the right, draw a curved line for the top part of the leg. Below that, draw a series of short lines for the foot and toes. Three lines pointing to the left and one to the right. To the left, draw the same thing but a bit smaller for the bird's other leg.
Step 12: To the right of the head, draw three small, curved lines for the top part of the feathers on the turkey's tail. Draw a series of short lines below the arcs to separate the feathers.
Step 13: Continue drawing small, curved lines toward the bottom to complete the feathers on the Thanksgiving turkey's tail. Draw a longer line to connect the bottom of the feathers to the body and add smaller lines inside the shape.
Step 14: Using a pen or marker, carefully go over the lines to make your cartoon Thanksgiving turkey drawing permanent. After the ink dries, get rid of every pencil mark with an eraser.
Final Step: Color your cartoon Thanksgiving turkey drawing using color pencils, markers or crayons! Use dark brown for the Pilgrim hat. Use light brown, yellow-orange and yellow for belt and buckle on the hat. Use brown for the rest of the bird's body. Color lightly and slowly build up to the shade that you like. Use red for the wattle and the top part of the tail. Color the beak yellow and the middle of the tail light brown. Use dark brown for the bottom of the turkey's tail. Don't forget to pause the video to draw at your own pace.
