How to Draw Warrior Cats Step by Step

Introduction

Are you a big fan of the popular series of books, Warriors, by Erin Hunter? If so, you may have already delved into the world of Warrior Cats and want to start drawing them. Drawing cats can be intimidating, but the Warrior Cats have particular features that make them unique and fun to draw. With a few steps, you can have a Warrior Cat of your own.

Gather Your Supplies

Before you start drawing, you'll need to get your supplies together. A pencil or pen, paper, and an eraser are essential. You might also want to get a ruler to help you draw straight lines. You'll also need some references for the Warrior cats, so that you can get a good idea of how their features should look. You can find reference images online and in the Warrior books themselves.

Outline the Body

Once you have your supplies and references ready, you can start drawing. Begin by outlining the body of the cat. Draw a circle for the head, and then add a horizontal line that is slightly curved for the neck. Add two vertical lines for the body, and then draw two curved lines for the legs. Next, add two curved lines for the tail. Your cat should look somewhat like a bean by this point.

Draw the Face

Now it's time to start adding the details of the face. Start by drawing two curved lines for the eyes, and then draw two small circles inside the eyes for the pupils. Add curved lines for the eyebrows and nose, and then draw a mouth with a curved line. You can also draw the whiskers, which should be long and thin. Finally, add the ears at the top of the head, making sure that the tips are pointed.

Add the Fur

Now that the basic shape of the cat is done, it's time to add the fur. Start by drawing curved lines that come out of the head and neck, which will give the cat a fluffy look. Then draw curved lines for the fur on the legs and tail. Make sure to add some fur at the top of the ears, too. You can also draw some thin, curved lines along the sides of the body to give the cat a bit of texture.

Add the Details

Now that the basic shape and fur of the Warrior cat is done, you can add the details. Start by drawing a few lines on the face to give the cat a bit of expression. You can also add a few stripes on the legs and tail, which will make the cat look more like a Warrior. Finally, you can add some color to the cat, if you wish.

Clean Up Your Drawing

Once you've added all the details to your Warrior cat, it's time to clean up your drawing. Use an eraser to get rid of any extra lines or shapes that you don't want, and then you can start shading. Shading will give your cat more dimension and make it look more realistic. You can also add shadows and highlights to make the cat look even more lifelike.

Final Touches

Finally, you can add some final touches to your Warrior cat. You can draw a background for your cat, or add some other elements like grass or trees. You can also add a name to your cat, or write a small story about them. Have fun and be creative with your Warrior cat drawing!
