A rabbit drawn as a rabbit rather than a character: real proportions, fur marked in short strokes, whiskers spread out from the muzzle. This realistic rabbit drawing is for someone who has outgrown round animals. Colored pencils, two tones, and let the strokes do the work; the grass around the paws is where a green can go without touching the fur. For a round, simple one, try the bunny face.

Realistic Rabbit: how to draw it step by step
Here is realistic rabbit in 9 steps.
Lay in the head and the crouched body as smooth shapes first.
Set the ears at a natural angle, not straight up.
Place the large eye high on the side of the head.
Add the muzzle, the nose and the split lip below it.
Break every outline into short strokes for the coat.
Work the strokes in the direction the fur lies, shoulder to hip.
Fan the whiskers out from either side of the muzzle.
Add the grass around the feet, longer than the fur strokes.
Leave pale gaps through the coat so it does not go solid.
What you need
Paper, a pencil and an eraser.
