Learn to see the shape of the duck. In animation we see the shape of the duck reduced to its simplest form. In essence the duck is two egg shapes placed in opposite directions joined by an "S" shape. Try it on a piece of paper. Draw a big egg shape, this is the body. Now draw another egg shape in the opposite direction above the other one and leave a little space between the two. Now put a snake shape from the bottom of the little egg to the big egg. We begin to see the duck shape come in. Now make a blunt cone-ish shape on the little end of the small egg. This will be the bill of the duck. Make sure you have a good eraser to work with because you will want to change your shapes as you go. Put in eyes. These are almond shapes above the bill shape. If you are animating, this shape will be half moons but the real duck shape is almond-y shaping. On the big egg, draw in the wing and make the tip of the wing extend a bit above the fat edge of the egg. Make the tail on the little end of the egg above the pointy end. Now erase the pointy end and you have the duck body. Put feet on him. Make webby feet and short legs. These legs are just four short straight lines and the webby feet are on the end. Now that you have the basic shape of the duck, look at pictures of your inspiration and refine the picture until it pleases you. That is the art of drawing, to refine the basics until you are pleased with what you did. Above all, have fun with your drawing.
