Step 11: To the right, draw a similar shape for the first hind leg. Add the curved line at the bottom for the red panda's foot. This leg should be slightly bigger than the front leg.

Step 12: Under the cartoon red panda's body, near the right, draw the other hind leg the same way but make it smaller. Lightly sketch a line that curves from the hind leg to the bottom of the ear for the rest of the body. When you get the shape of the line right, darken it.

Step 13: On the top, right side of the body, draw a long, curved line for the first part of the red panda's bushy tail. Draw a few pointy spikes at the top for the furry tip and then add another curved line on the left to finish the tail.

Step 14: Go over the lines with a pen or marker to make your cartoon red panda drawing permanent. Take your time and be careful when you ink to avoid any accidents. After the ink dries, get rid of every pencil mark with an eraser.

Final Step: Color your chibi red panda drawing using color pencils, markers or crayons! Use dark brown to add the dark areas on the face, legs and tail stripes. Color lightly. Using red-orange, separate the white markings on the face and then color the rest. Blend the red-orange with the dark brown. Leave the red panda's ears, muzzle and face markings blank. Add a bit of gray on the ears and head for shadows. Don't forget to pause the video to draw at your own pace.
