Hey there! Are you ready to draw Knuckles, the cool character from the movie Sonic the Hedgehog 2? Follow these fun and easy steps to create your own awesome picture of Knuckles. Let’s get started!
Knuckles is a strong and brave character. He is an echidna, which makes him different from Sonic, who is a hedgehog. In the movie, Knuckles surprises Sonic and they have an exciting battle!
Before we start drawing, make sure you have these things:
Let’s begin by drawing a “V” shape near the top center of your paper. This will be Knuckles’ nose. Connect the top of the “V” and color it in.
Now, draw a line across the top of the “V” to make Knuckles’ eyes. Make sure the line is the same on both sides.
Draw curved eyebrows above the eyes to show his angry look. Start from the middle of the line, curve up and around, then connect back to the line.
Inside each eye, draw an oval shape touching the bottom line. Add pupils by drawing smaller ovals and coloring them in.
For Knuckles’ mouth, draw an “S” curve starting from the left side, curving up, then down. Connect the ends to form his mouth. Below the mouth, draw a “U” shape for his chin and cheek.
Draw two diagonal curves on each side of his face for Knuckles’ spikes. Start near his eyes and curve down towards his cheeks.
Create the top of Knuckles’ head by drawing a curve that starts from one side, goes over the top, and connects to the other side.
Start drawing Knuckles’ body by making two lines that come down from the sides of his head to form his waist.
Draw his arms coming out from his shoulders. For his gloves, draw the top part connecting to the arms, and then make big circles at the ends for the gloves.
Draw the thumbs and spikes on the gloves by making small curves and triangles.
For Knuckles’ legs, draw two lines coming down from his waist. Then, create his boots by drawing curves that connect the legs and adding details like the folded-over top and shoelaces.
Once you have finished the outline of Knuckles, go back and add any extra details you like.
Now it’s time to color your drawing! Use red for his body, white for his chest patch, and any other colors you like for the gloves and boots.
Yay! You have drawn and colored Knuckles from Sonic the Hedgehog 2! Remember, it’s okay if your drawing looks different from others. The most important thing is to have fun and keep practicing. Happy drawing!
Explore Echidnas: Knuckles is an echidna, a unique animal. With the help of an adult, look up pictures of real echidnas online or in a book. What do they look like? How are they similar to or different from Knuckles? Draw your own version of an echidna and give it a name!
Color Mixing Fun: Knuckles is red, but did you know you can make different shades of red by mixing colors? Try mixing red with a little bit of white to make pink, or with black to make a darker red. Use these new colors to create a colorful background for your Knuckles drawing.
