Hello to all online art lovers and main motivators of each digital artist ^ _ ^
This guide wanted to publish it yesterday but while I was editing the gifs I received the message that some of my best friends were turning years old and their family would celebrate it with a homemade cake, which had time that I did not see because of work (the day that he has free are when I work) so instead of going to where my sister to publish as I had planned I decided to stop by his house to congratulate him and share the afternoon with him and my other friends who also went.
Returning to the topic that concerns them the guide that I am showing you is about how to draw the favorite animal of many and the internet THE CAT these small animal possessing a curious and arrogant personality, with great agility (which seems to be super powers) elegance and presence , which is why it is one of the favorites when choosing a pet, that is why I decided to make this guide where I explain how to draw this peculiar animal so memorable XD.
Pencil sketches from my guide
The head and face of the cat
This animal or pet as they prefer to refer to it, has a very simple geometric structure to perform because of its unique characteristics of felines, practically all cats are the same, they only change the volume (it is already due to feeding) and the pattern of hair color, what does not change is its main feature, which is its almost zero expression on his face.
Side view
Three quarter view
Knowing with what basic geometric shapes the head is composed, it becomes simple to draw it in different angles, it is only a matter of reorienting the position of the shapes.
The cat's body
To be so agile and flexible the cat's body is like a spring, so you should try to observe the cats in their daily surroundings to better understand their movements. When building the structure of your body, it should always allow as much flexibility as possible for your movements, such as taking big jumps or starting fast races.
The Feline posture
Like the head, by associating the cat's body with basic shapes, it will become simple to perform by understanding how your body works mechanically, making its moving postures look fluid and natural.
The Stylized Cat (Cartoon Style)
Drawing a cat in a stylized way or in cartoon style, is just a very simplified version of a real cat, in order to show more expressiveness in its gestures.
You should know very well how a cat is realistically, to know how to correctly make a simplification of its structure and all its characteristics when drawing it in a more stylized style.
