Ever been captivated by the amusing antics of Grizzly, Panda, and Ice Bear from Cartoon Network’s We Bare Bears? This guide will walk you through how to draw the bears standing on each other’s back, their signature bearstack pose. Let’s start your journey into the heart of San Francisco, Bay Area, where these three brothers live their adventurous lives!
Know the Bears Before You Sketch
- Grizzly: As the eldest, Grizzly leads the trio. His powerful stature and passionate nature contrast his often playful behavior. His dedication to his brothers is unparalleled, making him the protective figure in the group.
- Panda: The tech-savvy Panda holds the middle ground. Bridging the gap between Grizzly’s leadership and Ice Bear’s diligence, Panda’s adorable and anxious demeanor is a pivotal part of their dynamic.
- Ice Bear: The silent yet profound Ice Bear is the youngest but the backbone of the bearstack. His maturity and strength ensure the trio remains steady, both in their adventures and when they’re stacked up.
Decoding the Guide
Before we delve into the drawing process, it’s essential to understand the guide’s color coding:
- Red Color: Represents the current step in the drawing.
- Black Color: Highlights the lines drawn in previous steps.
- Grey Color: Showcases the basic proportionate sketch to guide your drawing.
This guide will take you through 17 stages. Initially, you’ll lay down a foundational sketch, capturing the basic proportions using light pencil strokes. Once the sketch takes shape, the adventurous can choose to ink it, letting the lines shine. Remember to wait for the ink to dry before gently erasing the initial pencil sketch to avoid smudges.
Now that you know how to draw the bears standing on each others back, give it a few tries until that stacked pose feels natural and balanced. The SketchOk YouTube channel uploads drawing videos regularly, so it’s worth checking over there if you learn better by watching someone work through the lines. And when you’re happy with your version of Grizz, Panda, and Ice Bear, the pinned post on Pinterest is a great spot to drop your finished drawing and see what others have done with the same tutorial.
