If you’ve ever watched the animated series “Josie & the Pussycats,” you’d know the vivacious, quirky, and endearing lead singer Josie McCoy. This tutorial aims to guide you on a journey to create a beautiful sketch of this lovable character.

Spotlight on Josie McCoy

Josie McCoy, with her iconic red hair and guitar, is a character full of life and ambition. Notably, she’s much more than just a talented musician; she’s also a symbol of determination, successfully achieving her dream of being a world-famous rock star before graduating high school.

When sketching Josie, you should focus on several key features:

• Her quirky and sometimes goofy expressions
• The iconic red hair and its shape
• Her guitar, a crucial part of her character

As you sketch, consider adding her bandmates, Valerie and Melody, or even their manager, Alexander Cabot. Including these characters could provide depth to your artwork, and create a more dynamic scene from Riverdale.

Your Sketch Map: The Guide Explained

The guide you’ll follow has a simple color coding system:

• Red Color: Represents the current step.
• Black Color: Showcases the lines you’ve already drawn.
• Grey Color: Indicates the basic sketch or structure.

This guide takes you through 15 meticulously planned steps. The journey begins with you creating a basic sketch, using light strokes to establish the proportions. By the end, you can opt to ink the sketch. Be sure to wait until the ink dries before gently erasing the initial pencil sketch. This technique helps your final lines stand out, giving your artwork a clean, polished look.
