The elephant is one of the largest animals on the planet. Its large dimensions, ears and fangs are harder to recreate on paper than it may seem right away. Thick straight legs of the elephant are relatively easy to draw, even easier than a horse.

Calculate its size in such a way that the ear reaches the upper leg and occupied half the body of the elephant. Make the torso more round. Add eyes in the middle of the head. Line Couple head and torso. From it I draw animal fangs. Make rounded themes of your elephant. Pay attention to his legs and do not forget to draw the tail.
After you almost finished drawing a step by step an animal, depict the skin. It should have large wrinkles or small folds in some places.
