Keep the legs fairly thick, as tigers are muscular animals with heavy coats of fur.
First, lightly sketch a pair of small circular eyes.
There, add a triangle-shaped nose and two whisker pads.

Remember to add a bit of fluff to the sides of the head as well.
Add a long curling tail behind the rear legs and sketch the individual toes in the tiger’s paws.
Remember to keep the stripes around the head shorter, and the ones on the body fairly long.

It’s a great way to give your animal a story.
Place a scrap of paper under your drawing hand and slowly go over the sketch with a pen.
It’s important to leave this step until last, otherwise, you risk smearing the ink.
