Draw two circles to indicate the basic shape and size of the ears

Towards the bottom end of the large face circle, draw two more circles (slightly overlapping the large circle) to represent the end of the muzzle.

Draw a half circle below the two “snout” circles (slightly narrower to equal) for the lower jaw

Project a set of lines from the large face circle to the lower jaw semicircle to act as construction lines

Draw two curves seen from below the horizontal line slightly towards the “snout tip” curve to create a construction line for the muzzle

Draw the outer shape of the mane as two sets of curves
