How to Draw a Pugicorn

14 steps · Medium · about 11 min

Draw a pugicorn in 14 easy steps, about 11 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.

Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the head.

Step 1: The head
Leave space at the top. Draw a big soft egg head, flat on top, with fat cheeks.
Tip Leave room above the head for a tall horn.
Step 2: Little folded ears
Start high on the head. Draw a small flap ear hanging beside the head and stop lower down. Do both.
Tip Pug ears are tiny velvet flaps that fold forward.
Step 3: Two big eyes
On the middle of the head, draw 2 big round eyes far apart, with black dots and white shines.
Tip Huge, wide-apart eyes make the squashed pug face.
Step 4: Unicorn horn
On the middle of the top, draw a tall pointy horn straight up. Add 3 slanted lines across it.
Tip Make the horn about half as tall as the head.
Step 5: Snout and nose
Under the eyes, draw a small oval snout. Sit a big rounded triangle nose on top.
Step 6: Smile and wrinkles
From the nose, draw a line down to a little w smile. Hang a U tongue. Add 2 forehead wrinkles.
Step 7: Fluffy mane
On each side of the horn, draw 2 fluffy bumps of mane, tucked behind the horn and the head.
Tip Stop the mane before it reaches the ears.
Step 8: The body
Start under each ear. Curve down for the body and stop near the bottom. Join the ends underneath.
Step 9: Front legs
Start under the chin. Draw 2 U legs down to round paws, with a gap between them. Add toe lines.
Step 10: Back paws and tail
Add a hill paw at each bottom corner. From the right hip, curl a thick tail round to a point.
Tip A pug's tail is a tight curl, like a cinnamon bun.
Step 11: The ground
Draw the ground: a long line across under all 4 paws.
Step 12: Yellow horn, fawn fur
Colour the horn yellow. Colour the head, body, legs, paws and tail sand, around the snout and tongue.
Step 13: Pink and purple
Colour the tongue and the left mane pink. Colour the right mane purple.
Step 14: Dark mask and ears
Colour the snout and ears dark grey, around the nose and tongue. Colour the nose black. Keep the eyes white.
