Draw a small oval for the head
Add a rounded teardrop shape for the body
Sketch four thin legs under the body
Draw a long tail curving behind the body
Add two small rounded ears on top of the head
Draw the snout at the front of the head
Add two eyes, a nose, and a mouth
Sketch the cheetah’s tear lines from the eyes to the mouth
Refine the body shape to look sleek and streamlined
Add muscle lines on the legs and shoulders
Draw the paws at the ends of the legs
Add spots across the head, body, and tail
Erase extra lines and clean up the outline
Shade or color the cheetah with golden yellow and black spots
