James P. Sullivan or “Sully” is one of the lead characters in Disney’s 3D animated movie Monster’s Inc. He is known in the movie as the best monster for scaring little children. He’s also Michael Wazowski or “Mike’s” best friend and later on in the movie Boo’s friend. So, practice your drawing strokes as Sully practiced his scares by following this tutorial on how to draw Sully.

Steps

1
Learn how to draw Sully's head. To draw his head, start drawing two distorted hearts. First draw a smaller heart, then draw a larger one below it. Connect them by drawing another shape and then finish by drawing guidelines or vertical and horizontal lines.
2
Know that Sully is a big fuzzy monster. Start drawing his fuzziness by drawing zig zag lines on his head. Then connect your drawn shapes to form the shape of his head and add his horns.

3
Take note of how to draw his body. Sketch a shape that looks like a bent out tin can for the upper part of his body followed by a circle.
4
Add in his arms and legs. Draw his arms by drawing large elongated shapes with circles and then draw his legs by drawing bumpy “L” shapes. Draw also hairs on his stomach or main body.
5
Add fingers to the circles of your drawn elongated shapes and then add hairs on his arms and legs.
6
Connect everything together and erase some inside lines to clean up your drawing.
7
Create spots on his body. His spots are usually wavy and curvy ovals and circles. Then sketch lines on his hands and feet and add spiky fingernails on them. Finalize this step by adding his tail with spots.
8
The last step is to draw his face. He usually has big fuzzy eyebrows, round eyes, a large nose and a big grin.
9
Outline your drawing. Erase guideline and inside lines then sketch thick lines on your drawing.

Color Sully! He usually has an aquamarine fur, purple spots and blue eyes.
