Take the pencil and draw a slightly oval circle for the head in the upper right corner. With a little distance, you place a slanted oval for the body underneath. The template shows you the correct position.

Step 2: comb, neck and tail feathers

You take momentum and draw the back line of the rooster, also indicating the course of the tail feathers. You also start drawing the front part of the comb and connect the two circles so that the animal now also has a neck and chest.

Step 3: Legs, beak and eyes

With simple strokes you draw the rough structure of the comb. The chicken also gets a beak and an eye. You also roughly define the course of the tail feathers with simple strokes. If you want to draw a hen, make the tail feathers shorter. On the lower part of the body oval, sketch the legs with strokes in the given position. Let the template inspire you.

Step 4: Final contours

The rooster gradually takes shape. Use the pencil to trace the permanent contours. You work the face more finely and give the chicken a jagged comb and wattles. The tail feathers gain shape and volume. You also draw the wing and the bird gets its final legs.
