Step by Step Guide

Chameleons are some of the most interesting creatures on this planet. Apart from their color changing capabilities, I also love their sharp appearance. Some might find them creepy, but I actually quite like them. That brings me to the point I am about to make. I love drawing chameleons, but I know that many of you struggle with these drawings. For them, I can provide a bit of guidance. Just stick to the basics with me, and you can draw them with ease.

Start with the head. Then the body and tail. And the facial features and limbs. Then the stripes. Color everything, and you are done.
