Civet Drawing

In this article, we will start off with a new piece of paper and learn how to draw a civet drawing in a series of steps. It makes sense to pay attention to the shape and size of each part of the civet.

Time Needed: 20 minutes

1. Form The Head

   

   First, outline the furry shape of the civet’s head. Next, draw two shaded circles for its eyes. Next, draw an oval with a rounded triangle inside to form its nose.

2. Add The Ears

   

   Draw two pointed shapes with a diagonal line on top of the civet’s head to form its ears.

3. Draw The Body And Tail

   

   Draw an elongated oval to form the civet’s body. Next, attach a thin curvy shape to draw its tail.

4. Add The Legs

   

   Add the shape of the civet’s legs attached to the bottom of its body as shown.

5. Form The Fur Pattern

   

   Let’s first draw the fur pattern around the civet’s eyes. Next, draw a line curving upwards on top of each leg. Now, create a long curved line on the top side of its tail. Then, create long pointed shapes along its body and on the underside of its tail as shown.

6. Complete The Civet Drawing

   

   Let’s add some color to complete our drawing of the civet! First, use a cream colored crayon to shade the inner parts of its ears, its snout, and its underbelly. Next, color its nose, legs and the fur pattern on its face, body and tail with a dark brown crayon. Then, shade the rest of the civet with a dark yellow crayon.
