Step 1: The head

Draw a pear shape for the head of the dinosaur.

Step 2: The spikes

Draw the spikes on the back of the dinosaur starting by a small one on the top of its head going up drawing about five pairs of spikes on top of each other.

Step 3: The back

Draw a large dome intersecting the top two spikes and going down on both sides, looking like a mountain to make the back of the dinosaur.

Step 4: Front legs

Draw 2 chubby front legs and their toenails.

Step 5: Back legs and face

Draw the 2 back legs, they are partially hidden as shown in the drawing below, so they will be smaller than the front ones.

Draw eyes, nose and the snoring mouth of the dinosaur!

Step 6: The tail and the snores

Draw a cone shape curved upwards, coming from behind the back legs and the back of the dinosaur to make the tail, then decorate this tail with a few triangular spikes.

Write a few "Z"s coming out of this dinosaur, so we know that this dinosaur is snoring!

Congratulations, now you can draw a nice sleepy dinosaur.
