Panda Pencil Drawings

Panda drawings in pencil: a panda face, a panda with bamboo, a panda with a ball, a panda seen from behind, a panda waving hello, a baby panda lying on its tummy, two baby pandas hugging, a panda hanging upside down and a panda asleep on a branch. There is also a red panda on a branch and a close-up red panda face.

The cartoon pandas are easy to copy: draw the outline first, then fill in the black ears, legs and eye patches. The drawings with shaded fur are good for teens: start with a light outline in an HB pencil and add the fur with a soft pencil in short strokes.

Questions and answers

What is the easiest panda to draw in pencil?

The panda face: a circle, two round ears and patches around the eyes. Then try a sitting panda with a ball or with bamboo, they have few details too.

How do I fill in the black patches evenly?

Outline the patch first, then fill it with a soft 2B or 4B pencil in close strokes going one way. Do not press hard: add a second layer instead, and the color will come out smoother.

How do I draw fluffy panda fur?

Use short strokes that follow the fur, from the head down. Make the edges of the black patches with small strokes instead of a solid line, so the fur looks fluffy. Keep the white chest and face almost clean.
