Step 4. Draw the shape of the vampire's body using a rectangular shape. Draw the vampire's legs using long lines and draw circles for the two paws
Step 5. Add details to the face using the cross lines you drew earlier as a guide. Draw both eyes using two egg-like shapes and add a slanted line along both eyes for the eyelids. Draw a small circle for the iris and a curved line for the eyebrows. Draw the nose and mouth. Add two small upside-down triangles as vampire fangs
Step 6. Draw the vampire's face and hair. Add the ears, making the tips of the ears slightly pointed

Method 4 of 4: Draw a Vampire at Close Range with a Bat
Step 1. Start by sketching the contour of the egg-shaped image for the head
Step 2. Add the contour sketch of the image for the face

If you use an image processing program on your computer, it will be easier to add effects without disturbing previous images by simply adding an image layer. But if you use the technique of drawing by hand, use the basic method. Experiment with using rubber erasers, coloring agents and even your thumb to show the effect on the background. But make sure to be very careful in making it to avoid mistakes.
