How to Draw a Cute Orangutan - Step-by-Step Tutorial
Step 1: Begin with the face, drawing a squished in oval shaped face.
Step 2: Add the head by drawing an upside down "U" shape around the face, with a few short zig-zags for fur at the top.
Step 3: Next, add the face. Draw two semi-shaded circles for eyes, two dashes beneath them for nostrils, and a curved line below them for the mouth.
Step 4: Now draw the arms. Add a slightly zig-zagged curved line down from the head. These should curve up in a round paw with dashes for fingers.
Step 5: Draw the body by drawing zig-zag lines up from the paws.
Step 6: Between the paws, draw a semi-circle to complete the body. Below, add two "L" shapes that curve back up slightly toward the body, each with some dashed lines for toes.
