Step 1: Panda time! Let's begin with the head by drawing a circular figure with two dome shapes at the top for the ears.
Step 2: Next, place two smaller circles within the domes and then below that, add an additonal two large dots evenly spaced apart for the eyes. Draw a large circle around each eye for the outline of the face. Next, at the base of the outline, curve two small lines inward to create a connecting line for the mouth. Right above this, add one dot alone for the nose. Below the mouth, add one more curved line to represent the open smile.
Step 3: Now, draw a large oval from the base of the chin to create the body. Leave a small space open on the left side.
Step 4: Now on the right, about halfway down the body, add a short hortizonal line. Above this, to the right of the chin, draw in another curved line in the downward position. Connect these two lines with a small semi-circle for the hand. Next, at the base, draw in a horizontal line. Connected to the horizontal line and then hand above, draw a large oval for the bottom of the foot. Within the foot, add one larger oval near the bottom and three smaller ovals right above.
Step 5: Repeat the previous step for the arm and leg on the left side, making sure the left hand is placed in the space that was left on the body.
Step 6: Look how cute and cuddly your panda looks! Great work!
