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 long bean shape, higher at the front. Leave the back end open — the tail goes there.
A long wavy sail growing out of the back, then a tail that gets wider at the end, like a paddle.
A short neck up to a long, thin snout, like a crocodile. Add one eye and a smile along the mouth.
Two strong back legs and a little bent arm. Draw a wavy waterline where the legs stop.
Four lines inside the sail, growing up from the back. Leave a little space at the top.
Two ripple lines under the water, and a tiny splash by the tail. Now this spinosaurus is yours.
Now draw a spinosaurus using its sail as something else.
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.
