How to Draw Bluey (Step by Step)
Draw the head.
Start with a large rounded square or soft oval shape. Bluey’s head is wide with smooth corners. Add two pointy ears on top. The ears should be tall and slightly rounded at the tips. Do not worry if the shape is not perfect. This is just your base sketch.
Add the body.
Draw a smaller rounded rectangle under the head. Bluey’s body is short and simple. Keep it compact to match her cartoon style.
Draw the face.
Add two oval eyes close together. Inside each eye, draw a small black circle for the pupils. Bluey has a small oval nose in dark blue. Add a simple curved line for her smile. Keep the face clean and friendly.
Add Arms and legs.
Draw short, simple arms on each side of the body. Then add small rectangular legs at the bottom. Keep them thick and short.
Tails and Details
Draw a short tail at the back. Add Bluey’s darker blue patches on her ears, around one eye, and on parts of her body.
Color Bluey
Use light blue for most of her body. Use darker blue for her ears, patches, and tail. Leave the belly area a light cream color.
How to Draw Bingo (Step by Step)
This guide will help you draw Bingo, Bluey’s younger sister, in a simple and accurate way. Bingo is a Red Heeler puppy, so her shapes and colors are slightly different from Bluey.

Arms, Legs, and Tail
Draw short arms on both sides of the body. Add small rectangular legs at the bottom. Keep them thick and stubby. Draw a short tail at the back.
Color Bingo

Take your time and sketch lightly first so you can fix small mistakes easily.
How to Draw Bandit (Dad)
Draw the Head and ears.
Start with a large oval shape to form Bandit’s head; make it a little bigger than Bluey’s for a grown-up look. On top of the head, sketch two tall, pointy ears standing upright. Keep the ears slightly curved for a friendly vibe. This gives Bandit his recognizable dog-like features right away.
Body and Face
This is a broad rectangular shape below the head of Bandit, a solid form. Give him two round, plump eyes to show that he is a loving creature. Draw an oval-shaped nose in the center and complete it with a smile. All these will quantify his role as a playful and caring dad.
Arms, Legs, and Tail
Draw two strong arms on each side, slightly bent to show movement. Then add his legs at the bottom; make them solid to reflect his active energy. On the side, sketch his fluffy tail wagging happily. Together, these details bring Bandit’s fun-loving nature to life.
Color Bandit
-lookingFor his body, use a soft blue-gray to match his shiny look from the TV show. Shade the darker blue areas of his back, his ears, and his legs to contrast. Add the cream color to his belly, face, and paws. If you should color him, Bandit will be happy looking and ready for a fun adventure.
How to Draw Chilli (Mom)
Head and Ears
Begin with a medium-sized oval, not quite as fat as that of Bandit, to represent the head of Chilli. Above, draw two erect ears, but make them unsharpened and smooth. This provides her with a soft, tender appearance. Ensure that the head shape is tidy and well-balanced.
Body and Face
Below the head, create a shape of a rectangle, as she is taller than Bandit is and slimmer. In the head, draw on the drawing her sweet eyes, a small oval nose, and a kindly, motherly smile. These characteristics depict her quiet and maternal nature.
Arms, Legs, and Tail
stiff,Add her arms gently stretching out, not too thick, to show her softer character. Sketch her legs straight down for a balanced stance. Then draw a smooth, fluffy tail at the back. These details make her look graceful and welcoming.
Color Chilli
To color the majority of her body, use the shade of orange-red, keeping it bright yet warm. She has white on her face and belly and paws to make her soft. In contrast, there is a darker orange color on her back and ears. Cooling after being colored, chili appears very active and warm.
