How to draw a cartoon zombie
In this easy step-by-step tutorial, I will show you how to draw a cartoon zombie in nine easy steps. To get the most out of this drawing lesson, you might want to try drawing your zombie with a vector software.
However, if you don't own one and wish to use a pencil, you can do it the old way too!
First, draw a nice circle to create the head. Once you are finished, add two more circles on each side of the head to illustrate the ears. Then, draw two oval shapes on the face to represent the eyes.
Continue working on your character by adding a rectangle to use for the mouth. Finally, draw a long rectangle to create the body and two oval shapes to form the feet.
The arm and the hand are a little more complex to sketch. For the arm, just draw two rectangles like shown above. For the hand, sketch one rectangle for the thumb and three others for the fingers. Try to reproduce the menacing pose this character should have!
For the other arm and hand, just repeat the previous step! You can add a rectangle near the shoulder to represent a part of the t-shirt.
Now it's time to refine our drawing. Work on the head of your character and add some details on the face. Since the zombie is losing some skin and tissues, don't hesitate to use irregular lines when drawing the outline.
Work on the outline of the body, the arms and the legs. Make sure that the hands are accurate and menacing!
Now add some colors on your character.
You can add some gradient effects to create a more horrible creature!
And finally, using some light and dark tones to add lighting effects can also be a good idea!
Congratulations! You've just created a nice, disgusting zombie! Now you know how to draw a cartoon zombie that looks cool and dirty! Have fun!
