Raccoons are very funny, fluffy and cunning animals. Looking at the muzzle of this animal, you want to hug it. In addition, raccoons have a well-developed facial expressions. Unlike most animals, they are able to show a lot of emotions. In addition, the animals are quite smart and they can do a lot of things.
Of course, to have a raccoon as a pet is a bad idea because these animals like to go everywhere they want. But you can draw a raccoon together with a child. To interest your child, we offer you to draw a cartoon raccoon. Carefully read the instruction and prepare the necessary items.
Body
We begin to draw a raccoon according to the scheme of a bat drawing. Draw an elongated vertical oval on the sheet of paper, denoting the body.
Head
Add another oval to the body from the top. It’s small and slightly elongated horizontally.
Outlines of the head
Draw the outlines of the muzzle on the head at the bottom. This part looks like the lips.
Draw two curved lines from the bottom of the oval. Together, they should resemble a hat.
Left ear
The oval denoting the head can be erased. Next, draw the ear. It’s not on the top but a little bit on the side. Draw an elongated irregular rectangle in the ear; it will separate the outer and the inner side of the ear.
Body shape
Turn the lower oval into the body of a raccoon. Draw the left part in the form of a curved line.
Also draw the right side. Pay attention that the lines on the left and right must be symmetrical.
Right ear
Draw the second ear of the animal on the right part of the head.
Unnecessary lines
The oval which denotes the body can be carefully erased, leaving only the outline of a raccoon.
Left paw
Start drawing the limbs. Draw the raccoon’s left paw. It’s bent at the elbow and pressed to the body. Don’t forget to draw another curved line along the body.
Fur
Draw the fur on the belly of the animal using the wavy lines.
Spots on the muzzle
The fur on the raccon’s muzzle is predominantly black. It seems that the animal wears a mask like a superhero. Therefore, draw two spots that resemble the eyes and give the right shape to the hair on the head.
Muzzle
Draw the eyes inside the spots. Raccoon’s eyes are small, round and look like the beads. Draw an oval nose and a smile under the eyes.
Lower limbs
Draw the lower limbs of the raccoon. The animal’s legs are short contrasting with the upper limbs which resemble the human arms. All you have to do is draw a foot. It’s turned left. Add a fist to the upper limb.
In the same way, draw the right foot, which is turned to the right side.
Tail
Start drawing the tail. The raccon’s tail is similar to the tail of a squirrel: It’s long and fluffy. But notice that the raccoon’s tail is striped, so don’t forget to draw the stripes.
Right paw
Add the right foot to the animal. The raccoons are friendly that’s why the paw is lifted up. The animal welcomes everybody.
Details
Don’t forget to erase unnecessary lines where the right foot begins. Also pay attention to the small details.
Coloring
Usually raccoons are black and white with gray fur on the back. But you can color it as the famous raccoon Rocket from the “Guardians of the galaxy”. The child will be happy if he or she has such a funny character.
