How to Draw a Black Backed Jackal Side 15

Step 15: Use the triangle-like line on the top, left side of the head as a guide to draw the jackal's first ear. Darken the line but make the top part rounder and the bottom part a bit wider. Draw a few curved lines along the left edge of the shape to give the ear more structure. Draw a series of short and long strokes within the shape for the fur inside the ear.

Step 18: Use the second line from the right as a guide to draw the jackal's first front leg. Follow the path of the guide and lightly sketch the shape of the leg around it. Bend the shape where the guide bends for the joints. When you get the shape of the leg right, darken the lines. Make the top part thick and gradually make the leg thinner toward the bottom. Draw a couple of short, curved lines inside the jackal's paw to separate the toes.

Step 19: Use the line on the right as a guide to draw the other front leg the same way. Draw the shape of the jackal's leg around the guide. Sketch lightly at first. Keep the edges of the leg close to the guide so that the shape is skinny. Draw the curved paw at the bottom and add two short lines inside for the toes.
