This tutorial will teach you step by step to draw everyone's favorite cephalopod, Squidward Tentacles!

Step 1: Draw the Eyes

draw two ovals side by side, these will eventually be his eyes

Step 2: Draw a Line

Draw a slightly curved line across both ovals.

Step 3: Pupils!

Add two rectangles right beneath the line you drew in step 3 and shade them in to make the pupils

Step 4: Add a Nose

To make Squidward's nose, draw a large tear drop shape starting from between the eyes

Step 5: Define the Eyelids

after you've added the nose, refine the eyelids like so using the line you drew in step two to make the outside creases.

Step 6: Eyelids Part 2

shade them in and finish the creases by adding two short lines above the pupils like those in the picture

Step 7: Cranium Time

to make his bulbous head, draw a large watermelon shape that starts and ends right below the eyelids.

Step 8: Start Drawing the Face

To make the face draw a vertical line on either side of the head, overlapping it slightly with the outline of the eyes. Try to make these lines curve just a little bit towards the inside of the face.

Step 9: Begin the Mouth

to make Squidward's mouth, draw a horizontal oblong/ banana shape on each side of the face. Begin each shape from the bottom of the vertical lines you drew in step 8, and end it at the nose.
