Question

Why is there a bow on the dog? What if I don't want the bow on it?

Community Answer

The bow is just an optional stylistic choice made by the artist for this article. If you don't want your dog to have a bow, don't draw one.

Question

How do I make the ears and eyes the exact same shapes without stencils?

Community Answer

You can make a stencil. Draw the shape you would like to make on a separate piece of paper. Use scissors to cut out the shape. Place the cutout where you want the shape and trace the edges onto your drawing. Flip over the cutout when you're doing the opposite side.

Question

I have been trying to draw a husky. How should I use my shading pencils for it?

Community Answer

I would use a gray, silver or black shading pencil and color in your drawing. Then smudge the pencil to blend in then add detail. Also leave some parts white. Search up a husky picture for reference.
