If you’re sketching animals and want to study feline movement, this guide on how to draw a cougar in a 3/4 walking pose is a good place to start. The angle gives a sense of motion and volume, and there’s just enough complexity in the posture to keep things interesting without making it too difficult.
Main Features to Focus on While Drawing a Cougar Walking
- Rounded head with small ears placed far apart
- Thick neck flowing into a muscular shoulder
- Extended foreleg stepping forward and the opposite back leg following through
- Long, tapering tail curled at the end
- Eyes aligned with a relaxed but alert facial expression
Next, you might want to try drawing a cheetah, a prowling lioness or lions in different poses to continue exploring big cat forms in different angles.
