Prepare a paper, a pencil, and an eraser. Now we’re ready to draw!

Steps:

Step 1: First of all, we’ll start by drawing the guidelines. The purpose of guidelines is to help you estimate the size and to guide you in drawing the rest. Therefore, we’re going to draw from top to bottom. Therefore, we need to start drawing a realistic nose shape that resemble pear for the head. Then create another pear shape below it but less curvy and smaller (see picture to better understand).

Step 2: Moving on to the next step, we’ll make the eyes and the nose. Create two half circle on the head guideline to create the eyes. Then add a small rectangle in between it to make the nose.

Step 3: After the previous step, we’ll continue drawing snout and mouth. Start with an arch above the nose, then add a vertical straight line below the nose, and add a big curve line with another short curve line on each side.

Step 4: After that, we can start drawing the cornea and eyebrow guideline. You can draw ovals on each half circles. Then, add two leaf-like shape above the eyes to create eyebrows guideline.

Step 5: Now we can continue with the fuzzy hair on the head, start by making several curve lines that resemble the hair on top of the head. Next, create another fuzzy cheek by making several curve lines on each side of the head. Lastly, the eyebrow must be fuzzy. Therefore, create another curve line above the eyebrow (see picture).

Step 6: Then, we can continue adding the arms and legs. Start from the arm, by creating several straight lines that resemble an angle (see picture to better understand). Then lastly add four straight lines that resemble its legs (see picture).

Step 7: Next, create the hands and feet by making a coma-like shape for its hands below the arms. Moving on for its feet, create two uneven and narrow triangles with curve lines to create long feet.

Step 8: Moving on, let’s add another fuzzy fur for its chest and knee. Therefore, add another several curve lines below the head (see picture to better understand). Then, create several curve lines on both side of the knee.

Step 9: If there’s a line that intersect each other, this is the time to erase it. To see a Grinch clearly, you’ll need clean lines. Voila! You’ve finished drawing a Grinch!

Since you’re drawing a Grinch, you need to look at the actual reference of what you’re going to draw. It is important because drawing the shapes form would be varied. You’ll need keen eyes and a lot of practice so you can make your drawing perfect. Good luck!
