Step 6: Draw a series of curved lines that connect the major shapes to form the body. On the left side of the badger's body, draw another line as a guide for the tail.

That's it for the initial sketch! From this point on, press harder with your pencil to get a more defined sketch.

Step 7: Draw the eye about halfway inside the circle on the right side. The eyes are very small and are shaped like a football. Shade the inside of the eye except for a tiny circle to represent glare. Draw a few lines surrounding the badger's eye for extra detail.

Step 8: Draw the badger's nose on the tip of the muzzle. Lightly draw a half circle on the front, then darken the shape using quick, short strokes for fur. Draw a thick, curved line inside the left side of the badger's nose for the nostril.

Step 9: Draw the rest of the muzzle using the arc as a circle. Dip the top of the snout more and use quick, short strokes to draw the badger's mouth and chin under the nose.
