If you have problems printing this see the how to print tab above for some suggestions.
Connect the circle to make the beginning of the outline.
The top and bottom need to be flat (it might look like a mutant peanut).
Erase the extra lines.
Add triangles for the beak and the feet. Round off the feet slightly and make three slight arches for the webbed toes.
The wings are the hardest. Draw them lightly and go over them with a darker pencil when you get them right.
Add the eye and shading.
There are many species of penguins, I have drawn the black foot penguin it is smaller than the emperor and has a shorter beak.

In my example, I used felt markers for the black and the grays and colored pencils for the sky and ice. I thought it was too black and white so I added the blue sky. I put some rose, pink, lavender, and violet to the ice to give it more color. I just filled in broad areas with color without details so that the focus will be on Penny the Penguin.
