Step 6: On the right side of the head, draw a small curved line similar to a backward letter C as a guide for Cleo de Nile's ear.

Step 7: Now draw a couple of lines as guides for Cleo's hair. First draw a small curved line inside the head on the top part as a guide for the front of the hair or the bangs. Add a very long curved line that's similar to an upside-down letter U above her head for the rest of Cleo de Nile's hair.

Step 8: That’s it for the initial sketch! You have the basic Cleo de Nile shape. Now go in and tighten your drawing. From this point on, press harder with your pencil in order to get darker lines and a more defined sketch.

Step 9: Draw Cleo de Nile's eyes by using the initial football-like shapes as guides. Follow the basic path of the guides but make the lines thicker. Add a few pointy shapes at the top and bottom for the eyelashes.

Step 10: Inside each eye, draw a circle for the irises. Inside each iris, in the middle, draw another circle and shade it in for the pupils. Draw a tiny circle inside each of Cleo de Nile's eyes, off to the side, to represent glare.
