How to draw Inkling Octopus | Octonauts

If you’ve been enthralled by the marine adventures of the Octonauts, then you’re probably familiar with their wise and venerable founder, Professor Inkling. The journey on how to draw Professor Inkling awaits you, and it promises to be as exciting as any Octonauts mission!

Character’s Appearance and Focus Points When Drawing:

  • Head Structure: Professor Inkling has a rounded head with unique flaps that resemble ears, setting him apart from other octopus characters.
  • Monocle and Bow-Tie: His monocle and blue bow-tie are signature elements of his attire. Don’t forget to capture these to give him that scholarly appearance.
  • Tentacles: With eight arms, drawing Professor Inkling can be a challenge, but it’s essential to capture his movements and tentacle wrestling skills.
  • Muzzle: A distinguishing white muzzle adds a touch of age and wisdom to his persona.

While you’re at it, consider adding other Octonauts like Captain Barnacles or the Vegimals to create a complete underwater scene.

About the Guide:

This drawing guide comprises 7 meticulous steps that will lead you through every curve and line of Professor Inkling’s anatomy. Our unique color-coded system will assist you:

  • Red Color: Indicates the current step you should be focusing on.
  • Black Color: Highlights the lines you have drawn in previous steps.
  • Grey Color: Represents the basic structure sketch, which should be drawn with light pencil strokes for proportion.
