PRINTABLE PROJECT NOTES

Begin to make the outline by drawing basic shapes to get the form right. Draw lightly so you can erase later on.

BODY
The head starts as a circle on the shoulder of the body. On top of the head put two large triangles, they are close together. The body is an irregular rectangle that is taller at the shoulder.

LEGS
Draw a line on the ground so all the legs are the same length; this line can be the shadow underneath the fox when you are done. The back legs are like bent triangles shaped like a backward letter "S." The front legs are very thin triangles they have a slight bend at the elbow which is high up by the shoulder. The feet are circles at the bottom. (If you have problems with the feet draw the fox in high grass and hide the feet.)

Once you are happy with the basic shape go over it again with a darker pencil and erase the extra lines.

FACE
Use a guideline down the center of the head, and another guideline across the center forming a large + sign this helps keep things even. Thy eyes are below the cross mark. They are small circles outlined by almond-shaped eyelids.

The nose is a triangle pointing down and rounded on the corners. It is at the end of a narrow muzzle. The mouth is only a straight line across. The chin is a small line shaped like the letter "U" but not as wide as the nose.

The cheek fur goes out and down. There is fur in the ears that puffs out. The fur on the body lays down-pointing back toward the tail.

The tail is almost as long as the body and almost as wide.

Foxes come in many colors, brown, white, cinnamon, grey, and black. Add shadow underneath and under the chin. Put shadow on the far rear leg, and a shadow on the ground.
