Do you like the comic Peanuts? Here's how to draw Woodstock, Snoopy's sidekick and friend.

  1. It should look like a thin, sideways egg. Add guidelines if you like, but they're not really necessary for a drawing this simple.
  2. The hair is just a couple of squiggles around his face (don't worry about realism since he's a cartoon character) and remember, the eye is more of a dash than a dot!

  3. Add in his small wings and a tail almost like a sharp tooth jutting out.
  4. Attach long, thin ovals to them to serve as the feet.
  5. Make sure no excess guidelines remain. Woodstock is a brilliant sunshiny color, so use the brightest shade of yellow you have!
