Free course: How to draw a character
Six steps, one pencil, about twelve minutes. Watch the video, follow along on paper, then print the practice sheet and draw it again.
Watch it first
Draw it step by step
New lines are purple. Lines you already drew turn light.
Draw a small, slim body in the middle, round at the front and pointy at the back.
Each wing is a big triangle. Draw a straight edge out to a bump, bend down to a point, then scoop back to the body.
A thin neck up to the head. Add a long pointy beak at the front and a long pointy crest at the back.
One round eye on the head, and a smile along the beak.
Two little feet tucked under the body, pointing back.
A puffy cloud down below, a round sun up high, and two wind lines behind the tail. Now this pterodactyl is yours.
Now draw a pterodactyl carrying something home to its nest.
Practice on paper
Faint lines to trace, all six mini steps, and an empty box to draw your own. One page, works in black and white.
