Remember to keep things in proportion! , Define his face more and add in an elfish ear.
Follow the illustration for guidance. , Sketch the eyes, nose, and mouth following the guidelines.
Make eyebrows above the eyes.
Add the hair and the pointy hat with a feather and carefully erase the guidelines.
The eyes especially might look a little unnatural (even maniacal) at this point, but that's okay; Peter ought to look a little crazed, considering, and the eyes are hardly the focus of the whole drawing. , Draw a long shirt with leaf-like short sleeves and triangular ends over the waist.
