How to Draw Peter from Family Guy

Last Updated: August 25, 2021

The goofiest member of the Griffin clan, Peter is the father and most immature member of the show Family Guy. He's a tubby, goofy, hilarious character and is fun to draw. Learning to draw Peter and put him in hilarious cartoons you make yourself can be easy by following a few quick-to-learn tips. See Step 1 for more information.

Steps

1
Draw the head. Draw a small circle connected to a large curvy rectangle. Sketch in guidelines for the face.
2
Draw his eyes/glasses with two circles, connected by lines. Add dots for the pupils. Draw his nose and give him a smile and that curvy W-shaped chin. Draw small, round ears.
3
Sketch in the hair. It should lie very flat on his head, curving very slightly over his scalp and ending high on his forehead with short bangs.
4
For the body, draw a large egg shape. Add fat ovals for the arms and a circle for each hand, with short ovals for fingers.
5
Draw two fat shapes for the legs and half-ovals for the feet. The legs should be stumpy but very rectangular, ending in bloated feet.
6
Sketch in his clothes. Don't forget that belly bulge! You can depict this with gentle curves coming over the top of his pants, with distended buttons on his shirt.
7
Color and outline your drawing. Make sure no excess guidelines remain.

By practicing. If you practice it'll get better and better. Also, it works best if you start by drawing the shoulder first, then continue on with the other parts of the arm.
