Easy Cute Pencil Drawings of Animals From Disney
I've always loved Disney animals—expressive and human-like, yet so similar to their realistic counterparts. Their simplicity is deceptive, though—as I kid I had a hard time drawing them correctly. I didn't know back then that there are special rules you need to follow to draw authentic Disney animals.
If you want to learn how to draw animals in a Disney style, in this tutorial I will show you all the basics. You'll learn how the head and body are constructed, and how to draw the face in various views step by step. We'll take a closer look at cats, dogs, and horses, but these rules also apply to bears, deer, and even birds. With these rules you'll be able to draw real Disney characters and create your own.
Before you start, I recommend you take a look at the first tutorial from this series, How to Draw Disney Characters.
1. The Anatomy of Disney Animals
Although animals can be so different, they all can be drawn in a Disney style that makes them similar. How is this possible? It's about simplifying all the elements of the head in the same way:
- Cranium
- Muzzle
- Chin
- Eye socket
- Eyeball
- Nose
- Cheeks
- Ears
Let's start with the cranium. It's always drawn as a sphere, regardless of the shape of the animal's head.
![cranium sphere](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-anatomy-1.png)
![cranium sphere](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=630/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-anatomy-1.png)
![cranium sphere](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=360/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-anatomy-1.png)
The upper jaw/upper half of the muzzle is an ellipsoid, smaller than the sphere. Its size, shape, and place of attachment can be modified for various purposes:
- Most animals will have these two shapes attached to each other, but for ungulates (hoofed animals) there may be a space between them to create a longer muzzle.
- The lower and smaller the ellipsoid is, the cuter/younger the animal looks. Placing it at 1/2 of the cranium is the safest bet.
- The length of the ellipsoid, its shape and its size should be adjusted to the characteristics of the species.
![muzzle ellipsoid](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-anatomy-2.png)

The next important measures are the eye socket and the eyeball. This again depends on the effect you want to achieve, as well as the look of the species, but the safest way is to put the eye right on the middle line of the sphere, and the eye socket on the middle line of this half. The eyeball may be placed within 2/3 of the eye socket. Females usually have bigger eyes, with more prominent eyelashes and thinner eyebrows.
![eyesocket with eyeballs](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-anatomy-3.png)

The final shape of the eye is achieved by adding the eyelids. You can learn all about drawing eyes and adding expressions to them in the previous tutorial of this series.
![eyelids shape](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-anatomy-4.png)

The nose can connect to the cranium in various ways—it can, for example, make a step, or it can merge into it gently.

The front of the mouth can usually be derived by drawing lines down the nose.
![shape of front of the motuh](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-anatomy-6.png)

The spherical shape of the cranium is sometimes enough to create the shape of the head, but sometimes you need to modify it. The cheeks can help you here.
![shape of cheeks](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-anatomy-7.png)

The cheeks must be merged with the shape of the head. Sometimes they change the whole shape of the cranium.
![shape of back of the head](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-anatomy-8.png)

The ears are usually very simple, attached to the back of the head.

Finally, we can draw the lower jaw. It's good to draw the jaws separately, because it gives us the freedom to draw them open or closed. Draw the chin as an ellipsoid right under the upper one, and then connect it to the head or the neck—depending on the effect you want to achieve.
![shape of lower jaw](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-anatomy-10.png)

Open mouth can be drawn easily when you think in forms—just keep the axis of rotation parallel to the line over the eyes.
![open jaw in disney animals](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-anatomy-11.png)

Because Disney animals can often speak, their mouth must be very human-like—you can draw normal lips on the front of the muzzle, and then adjust them to its shape until it looks convincing.

2. How to Draw Disney Cats
How to Draw a Disney Cat's Body
To draw any animal's body, you need to know its structure and form. When drawing the structure, you define the proportions and pose by reducing the body to a "skeleton" like this. The proportions of a cat's body depend on the species. Below, you can see the structure of a Disney lion. Characteristically, the lower half of its body is the same height or shorter than the upper half.
![lion king body proportions](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-cat-body-1.png)

When you have the structure, you can add the form. The elements of the body are identical for most animals—only their shape and size must be adjusted to the species.

Once you know this basic cat body, you can modify it to create other species. There's not one correct way of drawing every species—you simply need to find what is characteristic for a certain type of cat, and then exaggerate it in your structure and form.

How to Draw a Disney Cat's Paws
Step 1
Start with simple "pony hooves". Remember about direction and perspective.
![disney cat paws shape](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-cat-paws-1.png)

Step 2
Add this simple shape in the front. Imagine it in 3D to create a proper view.
![shape of paws](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-cat-paws-2.png)

Step 3
Divide the shape into halves. In the side view, it's good to shift this middle line to the side, to create a more interesting and less confusing view.
![direction of paws](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-cat-paws-3.png)

Step 4
Add an ellipsoid for each toe—smaller on the sides.
![shape of cat toes](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-cat-paws-4.png)

Step 5
Find the level defined by the top of the toes.
![shape of cat paw](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-cat-paws-5.png)

Step 6
Outline the paws. You can outline whole toes, or just a part of them—there's no definite rule for this.
![how to draw cat paw](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-cat-paws-6.png)

Step 7
The toes are often colored differently, so you can cut them visually from the rest of the paw.

How to Draw a Disney Cat's Head
Obviously, Disney cats have various proportions of their heads, because they don't look the same. Somehow, though, they do look similar—it's because they share some elements, even though their shape is modified. Here are a few examples—can you see what all these heads have in common? This is what makes them cat-like.
![disney cats head proportions](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-lion-head-1.png)

Before you draw a Disney cat, you need to prepare such a set of proportions—either create your own or analyze screenshots of an actual movie to find the proportions of the real character. Once you have the proportions, you can draw the character in any pose and view. Let me show you how!
Step 1
Start with the cranium, defining the view you want to use.
![start with spherical cranium](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-lion-head-2.png)
![start with spherical cranium](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=630/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-lion-head-2.png)

Step 2
Add the muzzle on the level defined by your proportions. For a lion from the Lion King, it's usually placed within the lower half of the cranium.
![add the muzzle](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-lion-head-3.png)
![add the muzzle](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=630/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-lion-head-3.png)
![add the muzzle](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=360/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-lion-head-3.png)
Step 3
Divide the muzzle into thirds.
![divide muzzle into thirds](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-lion-head-4.png)

Step 4
Add the chin under the muzzle. For our lion, it should be 2/3 high.
![draw big lion chin](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-lion-head-5.png)

Step 5
Add the nose. In cats, it's usually tilted away from the muzzle.
![draw the nose](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-lion-head-6.png)

Step 6
Add the nose holes.

Step 7
Divide the upper half of the cranium into halves.
![draw proportions in the forehead](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-lion-head-8.png)

Step 8
Divide the lower half of this measurement into thirds, and add one third on top, too.
![draw more proportions for the eyes](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-lion-head-9.png)

Step 9
Use these guide lines to draw the shape of the nose and the forehead. For lions, it's slightly away from the cranium.
Step 10
The eye sockets will start in the 1/4 of the cranium...

3. How to Draw Disney Dogs
How to Draw a Disney Dog's Body
The structure of a dog is rather similar to the cat's, except the legs are longer, making the body more compact and less elongated in look.
![disney dog body proportions](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-dogs-body-1.png)

The form follows the structure—the legs are slimmer, and the torso looks narrow.

Of course, dogs come in all shapes and sizes—you need to take the characteristic features of the breed into account to draw your Disney dog. With some modifications, you can use the same plan to draw foxes and wolves as well.

How to Draw a Disney Dog's Paws
The paws can be drawn almost exactly like the cat's, with slight modifications: the wrist is higher and more pronounced, and the toes are less round (usually without color separations).
![how to draw disney dog paws](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-dogs-paws.png)

How to Draw a Disney Dog's Head
Dogs usually have longer muzzles than cats, with bigger noses, but the rest of the structure stays very similar. The most pronounced dog feature is the narrow lower jaw with the chin often hidden under the upper part of the muzzle. The corner of the lips can also reach very far.
![how to draw disney dog head proportions](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-dogs-head-1.png)

Step 1
As always, start with a sphere for the cranium.

Step 2
Add the long ellipsoid for the muzzle. Because the dog muzzle is so long, the whole head should be tilted by default to make the front view clearer.

4. How to Draw Disney Horses
How to Draw a Disney Horse's Body
Although horses look very different from cats and dogs, this huge difference is superficial. If you look at the structure, the "skeleton" is the same—only the proportions change. Horses walk on the tips of their toes, and their "forearms" and "feet" are long.

Disney horses look more or less realistic depending on the style. The stylization is usually based on making the legs very slim and indented, and the chest wide. The head can be kept straight like a human one.

How to Draw Disney Hooves
Step 1
Start with a simple curve of the leg. It should bend towards the front.
![draw rhythm of legs](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-horses-hooves-1.png)

How to Draw a Disney Horse's Head
Horse heads in Disney style are very diverse—because a horse head is so characteristic, it can be modified heavily without losing the crucial resemblance. The most important thing here is the distance between the cranium and the muzzle's ellipsoid. The forehead should also be longer than the cranium suggests, and the cheeks can help create the outline of the lower jaw. The mouth should be rather small, confined within the muzzle.
![dinsey horses head proportions](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-horses-head-1.png)

Step 1
As always, start with the cranium.
![draw spherical cranium](https://cms-assets.tutsplus.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=850/uploads/users/108/posts/31651/image/how-to-draw-disney-animals-horses-head-2.png)

Step 2
Draw the muzzle. You can draw it as an elongated "6" to control the distance from the cranium.
