How to Draw an American Pika Himalayan 1

Step 1: Draw a circle near the middle of the paper as a guide for the pika's body. First make four small marks to indicate its height and width. Then connect the marks using curved lines. Sketch lightly at first so that it's easy to erase if you make a mistake. If you're struggling to draw the circle, trace the outer rim of a coin, a bottle cap or any other object with a circular edge.

Step 4: Draw two small arcs on the head as guides for the pika's ears. The ear on the right will be smaller than the one on the right, so make that arc smaller.

Step 5: Draw a big circle to the left of the head as a guide for the pika's body. Draw this circle the same way as the head. Mae four small marks, then connect the marks using curved lines. This circle should be almost twice as big as the first circle. The edges of the circles should touch.
