Let's start by showing off the big guns (this might not the most appropriate phrase for a rabbit drawing tutorial, but nevertheless...)! I won't spoil the carefully crafted PDF and Video tutorial download in this article, as I'm sure my paraphrasing wouldn't do it justice...

Follow these 3 easy steps that cover it all from basic proportions to fur, highlights and shadows:

Did You Know?

Welcome back! I hope you are enjoying your download... And since you're still reading my written words for some reason, I will try to entertain you with some factoids about rabbits...

I presume, you prefer this trivial information over a detailed and introspective chronicle of the trails and tribulations I've faced in my life... Okey, It's settled then:

1. Ear Antenas?

Most rabbits can actually turn their ears 180 degrees. This rotation can pinpoint the exact location of a sound. If you ever feel like no one ever listens to you, remember a rabbit out there most probably heard you... It couldn't care less, though!

2. Rabbit Eye Lens?

Rabbits have almost 360 degree vision, but they are born with their eyes shut... That must be for the best!

3. Bucks Bunny

Female rabbits are called "does" and male rabbits are called "bucks"... So basically Bugs Bunny sounds like "male rabbit"? Very clever, Chuck Jones...! Well, is it clever...?

4. Poop and Carrots

Carrots and root vegetables in general aren’t a natural part of a rabbit’s diet... But poop is! They produce droppings that are fit for consummation, called caecotrophs. By eating these they make sure they get the most nutrition possible... What a weird excuse to eat your own poo!

Those are enough rabbit factoids for today! I would advise against implementing your newly acquired knowledge into your drawing, though. A wall-eyed poop eating bunny isn't very cute!
