How to draw a lynx? Description of the method

Almost all representatives of the cat family are depicted in the same way. But at the same time, each animal has its own distinctive features. Consider one of the classic options how to draw a lynx. The description is presented in the form of a step-by-step instruction with the corresponding pictures.

The main features of the appearance of the animal

Surely every junior schoolboy and, perhaps, even a pupil of the senior kindergarten group can easily tell how to draw a lynx, and describe how it looks. This is due to the fact that the representations of toddlers about the appearance of the animal are composed mainly of books about nature, coloring and teaching pictures of teachers. Lynx is rarely mentioned in fairy tales, and it is not often found in cartoon films. The image of a wild cat in many ways resembles the usual domestic, but there are also the following characteristic differences:

- large size;

- long limbs;

- short tail;

- spotted color;

- the ears "house", which have brushes at the ends.

How to draw a lynx in stages: applying the main contours

1. Arrange in the figure three circles, slightly different in diameter. The smallest will be the head. At some distance from it and just below, draw two other (future torso) - the second in size, and then adjacent to it large.
2. Perpendicular to the middle circle, pull down the oval - front limb. At the bottom of it in a horizontal form, place another oval (much smaller in size) - a paw of a trot. The other front foot draws "stepping" forward, so it will be perpendicular to the first.
3. Hind legs consist of three parts with a characteristic fold. The feet should be in the form of circles.
4. Design approximate contours of the muzzle and standing ears, triangles.
5. Tail draw a small, less than average length.
6. Mark the contours of the trunk, having drawn the lines of the neck, back and abdomen.

How to draw a lynx: details of an image

Giving the animal a more real appearance, consider that the lynx, although a predator, but should get with some feline softness, that is, without excessive angulation. To do this, pay attention first of all to the shape of the paws. They should be rounded and at the same time large enough. The muzzle of the lynx in the jaw area is decorated with a woolly beard, and the ears with tassels. The general reliefs of the beast must show that this animal is strong enough (the outline of the powerful thoracic and femur bones). After the step-by-step execution of all the sketches accompanying the article, clearly showing how to draw a lynx, proceed to the final step - applying the pattern and "toning" the animal.

Painting a picture

Having reached the end of this manual with a description of how to draw a lynx with a pencil, it is worth paying special attention to this stage. After all, the appropriate properly selected coloration will allow the animal to look more believable and realistic. Thus it is necessary to observe the sequence of toning. First, apply a pencil light brown specks. In the region of the limbs, they will be slightly smaller than on the trunk. And on the head, you can say, there are no spots at all. Even more appropriate will make the muzzle a little striped. After giving the animal "patterned", proceed to fill the free space with shades of the same color. It is necessary to do this very skillfully, adjusting the pressure of the pencil so as not to shade the spots applied before it. The directions of barely perceptible color strips should coincide with the "hairiness" of the animal - from the head to the tail, and on the limbs - from the top down and slightly back.
