This tutorial presents how to draw a bird. The example used as an example is a robin. Above, you see an overview of the different phases of the tutorial. The focus is on the drawing of the line. It can be particularly useful that artist beginners shoot something more serious but not too complex.

Step 1: Align the main shares of the bird.

Start your drawing by appreciating the total parts and the shape of the head and body of the bird. You want to have the most important and important forms. It avoids avoiding mistakes as part of the bird’s body, which is from the relationship to each other. It can also avoid returning more than you need to make a mistake. In this case, the body is much bigger than the head. The head looks very vague, like an egg. The body has a larger curve on the ground with a flat back.

Step 2: Describe the wing and tail.

Add the coarse shape of the wing and tail on the sketch of the bird’s body. The folded wing has a rounded base (about half of the body in width), followed by a cone as a shape that narrows towards the tip. Pull.

Pull the tail a little wider because it comes away from the body, followed by a rounded tip.

Step 3: Draw the beak and feet.

As soon as you have sketched the big body shapes, you can move down for smaller parts, z. B. spout and legs. Draw the beak with a lace tip, and it’s a kind of inner shape of “cut” in the head for about a third of its length. Note in the development of the legs that the rear leg is partway hidden after the front leg. The back leg should also be a little less because it is further from the viewer.

For a statement of the drawing in perspective, see:

The base of the legs lets some small springs on the joints around them. Draw these thicker areas than the rest of the leg as forms type “U” cable letter. From the common toe, the legs are pretty much right. Draw this part of the front leg with two parallel lines and show a part of the hind leg with a line. In general, the birds have three toes on the front of the leg and the other on the back. In this case, the foot on each leg is hidden forward to the other toes so that you can show the two per leg.

Step 4 – Drag eyes and other small details

Add the eye and other small claw details on your feet. Always pull the claws more and more of the upper / beast with two curved lines for each claw, which meet at the level of the tips. You can see a larger bird head design on top to see the details easier. Draw the eyes slightly left of the head and add a second shape, which essentially tracks the shape of the eye (a bit like an overview). It indicates the eyelids of the bird. Add a cleavage between the upper and lower part of the outlet. You can draw them with a slightly curved line, as shown by the example.

Step 5 – Establish feathers.

Once you have shot all body parts, create bodies to define the different spring’s sets. You only need two lines on the body and three on the wing in this case.

Step 6 – Add the springs and finish the drawing of birds.

Now draw the different spring’s sets in the various sections of the body defined by the design lines as indicated in the above example. Draw it from top to bottom and from left to right. You want to draw a set before drawing the one from below. You can also delete the building lines for each spring group when you have completed it. As soon as you get feathers, you can finish the bird drawing by crossing it with darker / stronger lines. 

If you are confident in your tracking feature, you can even do it with a thin black marker. However, if you are afraid of making a mistake, your pencil may be a better option. You can again see a larger drawing of the bird’s head in the above example, which facilitates some of the details. Fill in your eyes with a massive black color or shadow with a pencil, but leave a small white oval area for the upper nail (reflective light). You can also give the eyelid area to the eye a small bump on the front.

Conclusion

It’s a pretty simple tutorial that can help you create a beautiful and detailed birds drawing easy. If you are a beginner, you can also help you learn how to act in the right way by working from the largest dimensions to detail.
