This tutorial shows how to draw Mordecai, the tall blue jay who serves as one of the two main protagonists in Regular Show. Mordecai works at the park with his best friend Rigby, balancing slacking off with saving the world from bizarre threats. His elongated bird design with the distinctive crest and wing-arms creates a recognizable silhouette that captures the show’s unique art direction perfectly.

Mordecai’s Key Visual Elements

Mordecai’s romantic storylines involve both Margaret and CJ throughout the series, making them natural companions for group drawings.
