What you will learn
Practice this visual check: First surround the large oval egg, then place your forearm in front of the egg and check the ear length.
Shapes and proportions
A rounded head positions the face first. The oval ears are elongated on the left and right sides of the head, the pear-shaped body and short arms are connected below, the oval egg is enlarged in the front, and finally decorated with curves.
A common mistake
If the arm passes through the egg and the size of the two long ears is too different, the posture of holding the egg will be unclear.
How to fix it
First surround the large oval egg, then place your forearm in front of the egg and check the ear length.

Select the color of the part to complete the crayon draft
The body and paired limbs of the rabbit are lavender, the two inner ears are pink, and the color is custard with blue and pink stripes. Apply the color first with light pressure, leaving the black outline, and then compare pairs of parts using the same color.
