• The next step is to round off the base of the trapezoid (make its bottom line round) and draw the hind legs with toes.

• On the right side of the circle, a triangular ear is drawn, on which the inner part is immediately highlighted.
• Next, from the place where the nose connects to the head at its lower part, you need to start drawing the left part of the neck and the abdomen, not forgetting about the fluffy white pad located at the place where the neck turns into the abdomen.

Drawing diagram of a sitting fox:

• At the top of the sheet you need to draw a head, which should look like an uneven rhombus with rounded edges.
• On both sides, draw triangular ears. They should be different, because the fox sits half-turned.
• It is important to draw the eyes carefully. They should be placed diagonally, with the iris and pupil inside.
• Next, the inner part of the ears is drawn, volume lines are added. After that, you need to draw fluffy fur on the cheeks of the animal and carefully draw the nose.
• Using smooth lines, draw the back and the outer line of the left front paw.

• Next, the right front paw is drawn and the outline of the back one is made.

Sleeping fox

A drawing of a fox in pencil for children in a sleeping position is done according to the following scheme:

• On the left side of the sheet you need to draw the fox's head in the shape of a mushroom, draw the ears on top, and the eyes and nose inside.
• The back and hind leg should be depicted with one smooth, curl-shaped line.
• The last thing you need to do is draw a fluffy tail that hides the belly and paws from view. On the tail, you need to delimit the color with a zigzag line.

Funny fox

To create an image of a cheerful fox with a mischievous look, you need to complete 6 steps:

• First, the frame of the drawing is sketched. It should consist of a circle (for the head), an oval (for the upper part of the body), a curved line (for the tail) and reference lines for the eyes, nose, ears, and paws.

• The second stage involves drawing the ears, eyes, lower part of the body and the left front paw.
• Next, the fluffy fur on the animal's face is depicted, the chest, right front and left back paws, and the upper part of the tail are drawn. The color is delimited by a smooth line on the tail.

• At the end, the inner part of the left ear is drawn, the color on the paws is delimited and auxiliary lines are removed. The outline of the drawing is outlined with a simple pencil brighter.

Realistic drawing

Scheme for creating a realistic drawing of a fox:

• The contours of the future drawing are created as a frame of angular figures and lines. The head is depicted as a small trapezoid, under it a rectangle twice as large is drawn – the future body. Simple single lines mark the places of the four paws and the tail.

• At the next stage, the frame is outlined with smoothed contour lines. The result should be a "raw" sketch of the drawing without specifying details.
• The third stage is to refine the sketch. The sketch is transformed into a drawing close to realistic, using correct lines applied over the previous layers. Here, sharp ears, an elongated and slightly pointed nose, the place of the fluff on the cheek and neck, the mouth, feet, and the tip of the tail are drawn.
• Now you can start working on the details of the fox's image. Draw the tip of the nose, indicate the fluff on the forehead, cheeks, neck, belly, paws, etc.
• Next, the paws are carefully drawn, taking into account their position during movement.
• At the end, fluff is added to the ears and a lush tail is depicted.

Techniques for drawing a fox with a pencil from geometric shapes

A fox drawing with a pencil for children from geometric figures can be simple and complex. Simple ones include, for example, a fox from triangles or ellipses. Complex ones include a fox drawing from polygons.

Drawing variant	Step by step description
Fox of triangles	First, you need to draw a triangle, placing it diagonally. This is the fox's head. Then you need to make a thick dot at the very bottom of the triangle – this is the animal’s nose. Next, you need to draw a second triangle larger than the first one. It should sort of protrude from under the first one. To the right of the second triangle, draw a drop-shaped tail. At the end, you need to work out the details: add ears, draw eyes, whiskers and paws.
Fox of Ellipses	First, you need to draw 2 ellipses intersecting each other. The first one, which is larger, is the head, the second one, which is about 3-4 times smaller than the first one, is the body. Next, you need to draw the ears - for each one, use 2 ellipses: one larger, the other smaller. The tail is also formed from an elongated ellipse intersecting with the body. The right end of this ellipse should be slightly sharpened. Then you need to draw a nose in the form of a stretched drop with a smooth end. Eyes and a nose are drawn in the form of micro-ellipses. The color on the tail is separated by a smooth line. The last step is to add the whiskers as a pair of dashes on each side. The legs are depicted using small elongated ellipses intersecting with the body. The auxiliary lines must be removed with an eraser.
Fox of polygons	The drawing must begin with the image of a rhombus. After that, right-angled triangles are drawn to the right and left of the rhombus, and quadrangles with a beveled side are drawn above them, above which isosceles triangles are drawn. Next, using 2 small triangles and 1 scalene quadrilateral on each side, the fox's cheeks are depicted. The large octagon, located exactly under the rhombus, denotes the chest of the animal. The front paws are depicted in the form of 2 large triangles, the obtuse angles of which touch each other, and the acute angles are directed downwards. The tail of the geometric fox is formed from 2 quadrangles and 3 triangles. The tail should partially cover the front paws of the animal. After its depiction, it is necessary to erase the extra lines from the drawing with an eraser.

Schemes designed especially for children will help you create a drawing of a fox using only pencils and paper.
