7. Begin to draw Squidward's body. Extend a pair of lines downward from the head to form the neck. Draw curved triangles on each side of the neck to indicate the collar of the shirt. Then, use curved lines to sketch the rectangular shapes of the body and sleeve of the shirt. From the sleeve, extend a pair of curved lines. Loop them in an "S" shape to form Squidward's tentacle. Draw small circles on the palm to indicate suckers.
