How to Draw a Calico Kitten Cat Orange Black 15

Step 15: Use the big initial circle as a guide to draw the rest of the calico's head. Draw a series of short strokes along the edge of the circle to create the shape of the furry head. Make the left side a bit thinner than the original circle. The longer the strokes are, the shaggier the fur will be. Leave a few gaps on the lower, right side to emphasize where the head meets the neck. Add some short strokes inside the cat's head for extra detail on the fur.

Step 16: Use the line under the body, on the left side, as a guide to draw the first front leg. Follow the path of the guide and lightly sketch the shape of the cat's leg around it. The top part of the shape should be wide and the bottom narrow. Darken the lines when you get the shape right. Use some short strokes as you darken the shape for fur. Draw a couple of curved lines on the tip of the paw for the calico's toes. Bend the shape at the top and bottom to indicate the joints on the leg.

Step 17: Use the angled line on the right as a guide to draw the hind leg the same way. Follow the path of the guide and lightly sketch the calico cat's leg around it. The top part of the hind leg should be wider than the top part of the front leg. Bend the shape for the joints. When you get the shape right, darken the lines. Use a couple of curved lines on the paw for the toes. Use short strokes at the top for the cat's fur.

Step 18: To the left of the front leg, draw a similar shape for the front leg on the other side of the calico cat's body. Use the first front leg as a template to draw the second front leg. The right side of this leg will be hidden. Draw the second hind leg to the left of the first hind leg. Only the front part of this leg will be visible.

Step 19: Use the remaining lines and shapes as guides to draw the rest of the body. Use a series of short strokes along the outer edges of the initial guides to create the shape of the calico's furry body. Don't overlap the legs that are on this side of the body. Draw a series of short strokes around the curved line on the top, right side to create the calico's tail. The farther away the strokes are from the guide, the wider and fluffier the tail will be. The longer you draw each individual stroke, the shaggier the cat's coat will be.
