How to draw a manga style cat in just 8 steps but one doesn't even count because you're not actually drawing you're just getting some paper and a pencil.Best title ever, right? xD Okay.
Step 1:
Get some paper and a pencil. It can be notebook paper, scratch paper, whatever. Mechanical pencil, regular, whatever you like to use. Just make sure it has a good eraser in case you need it.
Step 2:
Start with drawing the cat's head. Basically, two triangles with curved lines going down from them with another line connecting them at the top of the head. Also add little tiny pointed triangles under the ears and the lines going from the ears for tufts of fur sticking out.
Step 3:
Now for the face. Draw the outline of the eyes, two ovals. For a nose, draw a small triangle. Going out from the triangle draw two curved lines. Connect a "U" in the middle of the curved lines to make the mouth.
Step 4:
The eyes, one of the most important parts of manga style drawings. In your oval, draw a circle in the top right corner. Then, draw a smaller circle in the bottom left corner. Then draw a long "U" shape at the bottom of your oval. Shade in the rest of the eye. Do the same for the other eye.
Step 5:
You probably can't see this that well in the picture, but make a little cluster of dots under the eyes. Coming out from the dots, draw three long curved lines for whiskers. Draw some more curved lines where you put your tufts of fur at the corners of the kitty's face. This kitty is one of those cats that actually doesn't mind wearing a collar (unlike all my cats.

) , so draw a rectangle and a circle underneath it to make the collar around its neck. Draw two long curved lines coming out from the collar to make the body.
Step 6:
Now for the more tricky part, which is going to be kind of hard to explain, so bear with me. For the arms, draw a slanted line a little underneath the collar. When you think it is long enough for an arm, make a curved line and then connect it with a straight line on the bottom, making a paw. (hope that made sense) Draw three little lines to represent claws, then go back up with another long slanted line, finishing the arm. Do the same for your other arm. For feet, draw an oval that opens to the body. Draw a smaller oval inside it with three little circles for paw-pads. Draw a line coming from the oval to make a leg. Do the same for the other leg. Connect everything at the bottom with lines. For the kitty's tail, make a long oval without a round bottom attached to the cat's right side.
Step 7:
Now to add some finishing touches. On the chest, draw some spiked lines to make another tuft of fur. Just for fun, make up a name for your cat and write it on the collar. Draw a speech bubble above the head saying meow or something like that, and draw a cute background with cat related stuff. I did fishes.
Step 8:
Last, color to your liking.

Well, hope you enjoyed that tutorial. PM me if you're having trouble or have any questions. I'll be running my v3 unpaused for a little, so Brian should evolve tomorrow. See you then!
