Conduct an oval with which you determine the size and location of your drawing. At the initial stage, use thin lines and gradually make the contour more clear.
- Add the front and back of the body.
Depict smooth bent lines along the edges of the oval. In this case, the front part has a smoothed shape, and the back has an elongated end.
- Detail the head.
In the front of the head, draw the long, thin tusk. Using a short line, depict the mouth and draw the eyes in the form of a small circle.
- Depict the side fins.
The body of the body is ready, and it remains to add some small elements. In the bottom of the body, draw two fins. In this case, use smooth curved lines.
- Sketch out the tail.
