Free course: How to draw a character
Six steps, one pencil, about ten 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 big circle for the head. Then two curvy lines swoop down from it. Wobbly is fine.
One wavy line across the page. Stop at each side of the neck.
Two round humps poke up out of the water. Make the first one bigger.
A pointy tail tip pops up at the end. Then give the head one eye and a shy smile.
One pointy spike on top of each hump. Two more go on the back of the head.
Short wavy ripples in the water and a splash by the tail. Now this sea monster is yours.
Now draw a sea monster peeking up at a surprised boat.
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.
