Step 1 - Start drawing your lion with a pencil, draw a small circle and a wavy line going downwards.

Step 2 - Add an oval shape for the lion's mouth and a big oval for his body, keep in mind the size and position of the big oval compare to the lion's head.

Step 3 - Add the basic shape of his front legs, divide each leg to three parts, use two elongated ovals for the leg and smaller one for the paw.

Step 4 - Continue sketching his rear legs, notice that this time the upper part of the legs is not an oval and it's bigger than the front legs.

Step 5 - Add his eyes, nose, mouth, ears and mane, use the circle we were drawing in the first step to place the facial features correctly.

Step 6 - We are going to add more details in the following steps, you can use a black pen or marker to do that. Start with the eyes, continue to his triangle looking nose and draw his mouth, now draw the frame of his face around.

Step 7 - Draw the outer shape of the lion's mane and ear.

Step 8 - Add more jagged lines inside the mane.

Step 10 - Draw the front legs, this time add more details to his paws.
