How to draw Dimitri Trio

Drawing three characters at once, all sharing the same base design but each with a distinct numbered pose, is the main challenge this tutorial tackles, and the Dimitri Trio from 101 Dalmatians Street makes that challenge very real across 40 steps. Keeping the proportions consistent across all three Dalmatian puppies while differentiating their expressions is where most of the work happens when you learn how to draw Dimitri Trio.

Three Puppies, One Sheet: What This Tutorial Covers

The tutorial runs 40 steps and produces a line art result, no color, so the full focus stays on getting the shapes and line weights right across all three figures. Because Dimitri 1, 2, and 3 are placed side by side, the drawing practices both proportion control and spatial composition at the same time. The trio format adds length to the sketch session, so working through this in segments rather than one sitting usually gives cleaner results.

Visual Features of the Dimitri Trio

• Three Dalmatian puppies side by side
• Numbers 1, 2, and 3 on each chest
• Large floppy ears with black spots
• Round eyes and wide open mouths
• Stubby spotted legs and feet

If you want to build up to this trio, starting with a single character first is a good approach. Deepak Dalmatian and Dylan are both solid single-character warm-ups, and Rolly covers the rounded puppy body type you will keep using here.

Reading the Color Coding in the Step Images

Each step uses a three-color system to show exactly what is new and what came before:

• Red Color: lines added in the current step.
• Black Color: lines completed earlier.
• Gray Color: base sketch for structure.

Finished the Trio? Show It Off

Drawing three characters in one composition takes real patience, so if you made it through all 40 steps, drop your finished sketch in the comments. If you want to keep going with the 101 Dalmatians Street cast, Triple D is a natural next step, and Perdita adds a good change of pace with her adult proportions. New tutorials get posted to the SketchOk Facebook page and Telegram channel as soon as they go live, a new YouTube walkthrough goes up every day, and Pinterest stays updated regularly, so there are plenty of ways to follow along.
