Today, drawing123.com will guide you how to easily draw characters from South Park with simple steps.
Let’s get started!
Step 1: Starting the Hair
Start by drawing the very top of Butters’ head. Draw a simple, three-pointed star-like shape, which will form the peak of his messy hair. This shape is centered on the canvas.
Step 2: Defining the Head Shape
To create the rest of his head, add a large, smooth circle that begins below the two outer points of the hair and curves all the way around. The bottom of the circle is left open for now. The previous hair shape is still visible inside the top curve.
Step 3: Outlining the Torso
From the lower-left and lower-right parts of the head circle, draw two long, slightly curved lines that flair outwards and downwards. These lines will form the outer edges of his coat.
Step 4: Adding Hands
On each side of the torso, at the lower end of the arm areas, add a circle. A smaller circle is drawn on the inner side of each large circle to complete his closed-fist hands.
Step 5: Completing the Coat
Connect the inner sides of the hand circles with a single, long, downward-curving line to form the bottom hem of his coat. Then, add a single straight vertical line from the bottom of the head circle to the bottom of the coat, dividing it into two panels.
Step 6: Starting the Legs
Add two straight vertical lines, one starting from each side of the bottom of the coat, extending downwards. These represent the inner edges of his pant legs.
Step 7: Adding Feet and Finalizing the Legs
From the bottom of each new leg line, extend a horizontal line outwards to form the pant-leg cuffs. Then, add two long, thin, bean-like shapes at the very bottom, connected to the cuffs, which are his shoes.
Step 8: Drawing the Face
In the lower-center of the main head circle, draw two large, blank ovals side-by-side for the eyes. Add a small dot to the center of each eye. Below and between the eyes, draw a simple, downward-curving line for a sad expression.
Step 9: Adding the Final Colors
The drawing is complete! It is now time to color it in. Fill his messy hair with a bright, sunny yellow. Color the skin of his face and hands a light, pale peach. His coat is a soft teal. The collar-less inner shirt and his pant legs are a deeper, darker green. His shoes are a dark grey or charcoal color. The inside of his eyes and the background remain white.
Step 1: Laying the Foundation for the Hat
Start by drawing a simple, wide, upward-curving line. This will be the base and brim of Cartman’s beanie hat.
Step 2: Completing the Hat and Adding the Pompom
To finish the beanie, add a complete, simple dome shape above the first curved line. Then, draw a small, fluffy, irregular cloud-like shape right on top of the dome to create the pompom.
Step 3: Outlining the Head
From the two outer corners of the hat’s brim, draw a very large, almost perfectly circular U-shape that connects underneath. This large, round shape forms the outline of Cartman’s entire head.
Step 4: Sketching the Body and Mitten Hands
On each lower side of the large head circle, draw an oval-like, round shape for his closed hands, which look like mittens. Then, from the head and behind the mittens, extend two curved lines outwards and downwards on each side to create the silhouette of his upper body and arms.
Step 5: Completing the Torso
Connect the lower edges of his mitten hands with a single, long, wavy line that curves downwards and across, forming the hem and bottom of his jacket. This encloses his entire upper body.
Step 6: Adding Coat Details
To define his jacket, draw a straight vertical line from the bottom of his head to the wavy hemline, dividing the jacket into two panels. Along this vertical line, add three small filled-in dots to create his jacket buttons.
Step 7: Structuring the Legs and Shoes
From the bottom corners of his jacket, draw two straight vertical lines down. Connect these at the bottom with a short, wide, slightly curved shape. Underneath this curve, add two thin, horizontal oval shapes for his shoes.
Step 8: Finalizing the Face
Add his facial features within the large head circle. Draw two large, overlapping, slightly blank circular eyes with a tiny dot pupil in the center of each. Above his eyes, draw two sharp, downward-angled lines for angry eyebrows. Below his eyes, add a long, wide, gentle curve for a mouth and a small horizontal dash for a nose/chin.
Step 9: Applying the Final Colors
The drawing is complete! It is now time to apply the iconic colors. Fill the main dome of his hat with a bright turquoise or teal. Color the hat brim and the fluffy pompom with a sunny yellow. His face and hands are a light peach or skin tone. The jacket must be a bold red. For his lower body, fill the pants area with a dark brown or maroon color and color his shoes a solid black.
Step 1: Draw the Spiky Hair
Start by drawing a spiky shape at the top of your page to form the tuft of hair. The hair has several sharp peaks, looking somewhat like a small crown or a stylized bush.
Step 2: Add the Upper Head
From the bottom edges of the spiky hair, draw a large dome shape extending downward and curving slightly at the bottom to form the upper half of the head.
Step 3: Outline the Lower Head
Directly underneath the upper head, add a matching curved crescent shape to complete the lower half of the circular, split head. Leave a very thin gap between the upper and lower sections.
Step 4: Sketch the Arms and Hands
Draw two downward-curving arms extending from the sides of the lower head. At the end of each arm, add a simple circular shape for the hands, with a tiny thumb loop on the inner side of each circle.
Step 5: Form the Body Lines
Draw two straight vertical lines extending down from the bottom of each hand to define the outer sides of the legs. Then, draw an upside-down “V” shape or a small arch in the bottom center to outline the inner legs.
Step 6: Create the Feet
Connect the bottom leg lines by drawing flat, oval-like shapes at the base to create the feet.
Step 7: Add Outfit Details
Draw a curved collar shape just below the chin, split down the middle. Extend a straight vertical line from the center of the collar all the way down to the crotch area to represent the jumpsuit opening. Add two small circular buttons along the upper part of this center line.
Step 8: Draw the Facial Features
Inside the upper half of the head, draw two small, open circles for the eyes, and a tiny hooked line for the nose. In the lower half of the head, draw a simple curved line to create a friendly smile.
Step 9: Color the Character
Color the spiky hair completely black. Fill the entire split head, hands, and the small thumbs with a light peach/skin tone. Color the entire jumpsuit—including the arms, body, collar, and feet—in a vibrant turquoise or cyan blue. Ensure the two buttons on the front of the suit are filled with black.
Step 1: Draw a Large Circle
Begin by sketching a large, perfect circle in the upper half of your page. This will serve as the outer boundary for the character’s large hood.
Step 2: Form the Inner Hood Ring
Inside the large circle, draw a slightly smaller circle that mimics the outer shape. Add an extra curved line along the bottom inside edge of this ring to give the opening of the hood a bit of depth.
Step 3: Draw the Eyes and Face Opening
Inside the very center of the hood, draw a diamond-like or almond-shaped opening with pointed top and bottom tips. Inside this opening, sketch two large oval eyes that touch each other in the middle, and place a small solid circle inside each eye for the pupils.
Step 4: Add the Arms and Mittens
Draw two curved arms extending downward from the lower sides of the outer hood. At the end of each arm, add a circular shape to create the mittens, making sure to include a small thumb loop facing inward.
Step 5: Outline the Parka Body
Connect the two hands by drawing a gently curved line across the bottom to form the lower edge of the coat. Then, add a straight vertical line right down the center of the coat to show the jacket’s zipper line.
Step 6: Create the Inner Leg Lines
Directly below the coat, draw two vertical lines on the outer edges for the sides of the legs. In the center, draw an upside-down square-like “U” shape or a small arch to separate the pant legs.
Step 7: Complete the Feet
Close off the bottom of each pant leg by sketching flat, smooth oval shapes to finish drawing the feet.
Step 8: Color the Complete Character
Color the entire outer coat, hood ring, and pants in a bright orange. Fill the interior area of the hood surrounding the face opening with a solid dark brown. Color the exposed diamond-shaped face area (around the eyes) with a light peach or skin tone, while keeping the eyeballs completely white and the pupils black. Color both of the circular mittens in a matching dark brown. Finish by coloring both of the flat shoes entirely black.
Step 1: Draw the Hat Brim and Earflaps
Start by drawing a wide, slightly curved horizontal rectangle near the top to form the front brim of the hat. Then, add two long, downward-pointing oval shapes attached to the bottom corners of the rectangle to create the earflaps hanging down on both sides.
Step 2: Add the Top of the Hat
Draw a large, inverted U-shaped line connecting the outer edges of the earflaps. This line goes up and across the top to complete the main shape of the ushanka winter hat.
Step 3: Outline the Face
Add a wide, smooth curve connecting the inner bottoms of the two earflaps. This half-circle outlines the lower part of the round face.
Step 4: Sketch the Coat Outline and Inner Arm Lines
Draw a bell-shaped outline extending downward from the head to create the body. Inside this outline, add two slightly curved vertical lines on each side to define the inner edges of the arms.
Step 5: Detail the Coat Collar, Center Seam, and Pockets
Draw a wide, shallow V-shaped line across the neck area to form the collar. Add a straight vertical line running down the center of the coat. Finally, draw two square pockets on the chest, each topped with a triangular flap and a small dot for a button.
Step 6: Draw the Mittens
Add two rounded mitten shapes at the bottom ends of the sleeves. Each mitten should include a simple curved thumb shape pointing inward toward the body.
Step 7: Outline the Pants and Shoes
Draw three straight vertical lines extending down from the coat to map out the two pant legs. At the base, sketch two flat, oval shapes pointing outward to form the shoes.
Step 8: Draw the Face Details
Complete the line work by adding the facial features. Draw two large, overlapping circles in the center of the face for the eyes, with a small dot inside each for the pupils. Above the eyes, add two short, slanted lines for the worried eyebrows, and draw a simple, gentle curve below the eyes for a happy smile.
Step 9: Color the Character
– Hat: Bright green for the main top section and the earflaps, and a slightly darker forest green for the rectangular front brim.
– Face: A light, soft peach or skin-tone color, with clean white eyes and black pupils.
– Coat: Bright orange for the main body and sleeves, with a lime green collar that matches the hat.
– Mittens: Lime green, matching the coat collar and hat.
– Pants: A dark, muted teal or grayish-green color.
– Shoes: Dark charcoal gray or black.
Step 1: Pompom and Top Cap Curve
Begin by drawing a spiky, multi-pointed shape at the top center to form the pompom. Directly beneath this, draw a single, partial curved line to establish the top boundary of the beanie.
Step 2: Define the Beanie Band
Add a second, matching curved line below the first one to create a band across the front of the cap. Close the sides of this band to form a complete rectangular shape below the initial curve. Draw one more lower curved line below this band.
Step 3: Sketch the Head Outline
Construct the full head. Draw a large, perfect circle that begins and ends at the bottom corners of the beanie band, creating the round outline of the face.
Step 4: Detail the Scalloped Collar
Add detail just below the chin. Draw two symmetrical scalloped or cloud-like shapes inside the head circle to define the split collar of his coat.
Step 5: Draw the Outer Arms
Sketch two outward-curving lines extending downwards from the sides of the head to establish the jacket’s width and the outer edge of the arms. Also, draw two small, short vertical marks inside the body outline to indicate the inner lines of the arms.
Step 6: Add the Hands (Mittens)
Draw two basic, smaller circular outlines at the bottom ends of the torso curves to represent his hands, or more accurately, his mittens.
Step 7: Complete the Coat Structure
Finalize the body of the jacket. Draw a single straight vertical line from the collar center down to the bottom center. Then, connect this central line to the mitten shapes with a clean, horizontal curved line to complete the lower edge of the coat.
Step 8: Draw the Pants Lines
Begin constructing the legs. Draw two straight, simple vertical lines extending down from the coat’s bottom edge to form the basic outline of his pants.
Step 9: Detail the Boots
Complete the legs and feet. Create the boots by drawing a wider, flatter horizontal oval or two flat curves below the pant legs to establish the shape of the footwear.
Step 10: Sketch the Face Details
Draw the facial features. Inside the head, add two large, overlapping perfect circles for the eyes, with two small dots inside each for the pupils. Below the eyes, draw a simple, slight curve to form his mouth.
Step 11: Final Details and Color Application
Inside the head, draw two large, overlapping perfect white circles for the eyes, with two small black dots as pupils in the center. Sketch a simple curved line below the eyes for the mouth. For coloring, fill the pompom with bright red and the beanie cap body with blue. Color the beanie band with red. The scalloped collar and the central coat line are bright red. The main body of the jacket is brown. His mittens are red. The pants are blue, matching the beanie cap. Finally, color the boots dark charcoal gray.
Hopefully, this drawing tutorial on South Park will help you easily create a nice drawing.
