How to Draw Caterpie from Pokemon with Easy Steps Drawing Tutorial

Step 1

Start off with a lollipop shape with a cross section. This will serve as your guide to where the facial features will be placed. Make the stick curved.

Step 2

Draw a small oval on the bottom of the head. Take note to leave a section of the curve outside that oval.

Step 3

Draw an oval at the back of the head. This will be Caterpie’s “hump”.

Step 4

Draw a thick “Y” shape for the antennae. Draw two ovals for the mouth and a circle for the eyes.

Step 5

Add two rings at the hump and back. Draw two ovals at the chest  (looks like a #8 shape) with two small circles each for the legs.

Step 6

Add some stripes to the rest of the tail for the body segments. Add a small leaf shape at the end for the tail design. Continue to add more rings.
