How to draw a creature from the fantastic four.

Today I will teach you. We already know how to draw a dragon with a pencil step by step, and now let's take on the gargoyle.

You could meet this fantasy character in computer games both in literature and in films. Also popular in recent times become . But what are these monsters?

Gargoyles are medieval monsters of demonic origin that guard temples and castles. Their body is made of stone, but their wings allow them to fly. They were endowed with fangs, claws and incredible physical strength.

These were the symbol of a vague divine intervention. They, like the elves, appeared, did the will of the gods and disappeared on for a long time. Many statues of these creatures today are the greatest achievements of architecture.

To begin with, let's draw on the paper the line of the ridge of our demon and the oval of his face. You can also draw a pedestal or parapet under it, on which it wakes us to sit.

Next, we should use lines to indicate the position of the skeleton. We apply them in places where the wings, paws, horn and other parts of the body will be located. We will also draw auxiliary circles that will help us draw the body of the gargoyle. We also give an approximate outline of the head - ears, snake eyes, mouth.

Since our demon is very strong, we draw a muscular body, and no less muscular front and hind legs. Although many argue that they did not have paws, but arms and legs, but on most statues they came down in this form.

Now let's move on to drawing the wings. Like everyone else, gargoyles had sharp fangs that we should draw.

On last step draw the tail, spikes on the ridge, teeth and others small parts. After all, it is no secret to anyone that the realism and greatness of any work of art is manifested in the little things. Do not forget about the auxiliary lines that we applied at the beginning. They need to be erased.

Now you can clearly highlight the contours and start painting our gargoyle. The best way to do this is with shading. soft pencil. If you have a desire, you can finish the environment.

These stone knights of darkness look very beautiful against the sunset.

Well, how did it happen? In my opinion, TrustNo1 turned out well!

If you liked it - write, I would also like to know what drawing lessons you would like to see.

Pay special attention to next lesson! It is very important! Lesson topic: "Basics of pencil drawing"

Especially for you.

Hello! Today we will tell you about how to draw a member of one of the most famous families on the planet - the Fantastic Four. As you have already seen in the preview picture, we will draw the Creature, or Ben Grimm, an incredibly charming and cute superhero.

Benjamin Grimm, a friend of Reed Richards from his college days, quickly realized that science was not for him, and, somehow graduating educational institution, went to the army, where he proved to be a good pilot. It was the skills of the pilot that allowed Ben to be one of those who were selected in space expedition, during which Sue, Johnny, and actually Ben himself fell under cosmic radiation and became the Fantastic Four.

Let's start this tutorial and learn how to draw a Creature from the Fantastic Four!

Step 1

Let's start with stickman. Ben Grimm - a common person, but only until it turns into a huge creature, covered with a dense and durable orange shell. At the stickman stage, the ratio of the lengths of the head and the whole body will be completely different from - here, 4-4.5 heads in length fit into the growth of our hero.

Now it seems that the head is disproportionately large, however, when we create a powerful silhouette, it will no longer appear so.

By the way, a powerful silhouette will be formed by a wide line of shoulders - at least 3 heads wide (note that it is beveled) and a narrow line of the pelvis, if it were wide, the figure would be overweight, not powerful.

Step 2

Now different parts of the stickman are simple geometric shapes. We denote hands in wide circles and rectangles, smooth bends should not be here. We outline the torso with a wide rectangle with smoothed corners - by the way, pay attention, the upper part of the torso overlaps the lower part of the head.

We denote the inguinal region with a triangle, the hips with cylinders that narrow towards the knee (again, the narrowing should not be smooth), then we denote short shins and rectangular feet.

In the same step, mark the face with a pair perpendicular lines- the vertical one will indicate facial symmetry, and the horizontal one (see how high it is located, the cost of the angle - we are looking from the bottom up at Ben) will show the location of the eyes.

Step 3

Now, using the markings from the previous step, let's draw a wide superciliary arches, directly below them (almost, intersecting) is the oval of the nose. Also, the contours of the cheeks, which are similar to the letter "T", depart from the superciliary arches. Under the cheeks, draw a large lower lip - an angular beveled line passing through the entire face.

Here we will draw the shorts of the superhero, drawing the upper border and outlining a plaque with corporate logo Fantastic Four.

Step 4

The silhouette of the Creature from the Fantastic Four is ready, now you can start drawing it. We will detail this lesson, like all the others, in the direction from top to bottom, that is, from head to toe. Therefore, now we erase the extra lines from the face, draw the eyes (two semicircles that border on the superciliary line and draw the mouth.

Step 5

So, we continue the lesson on how to draw a Creature. This step is very simple, here we erase all the previously outlined internal lines, leaving only the most important ones, such as the contours of the pectoral muscles. More precisely, not that the most important, but those whose relief is repeated by the shell. Naturally, we do not erase the outer contours.

Here we draw Ben's shorts, as well as the logo of the Fantastic Four. By the way, we also have drawing lessons for those with whom Ben seems to be allies, but from time to time he is not averse to fighting - for example, and.

Step 6

Now we begin to draw the shell of the Creature. A significant part of the stones that form it are hexagons, but here we are starting to get very important rule: when we draw the shell of this hero, the stones of the shell should have a random, that is, a random shape. If we try to make them look like, we will get a Ben Grimm made of bricks, and this should not be. Note that the rule of drawing "random" stones is preserved for drawing the Creature in any style, even in the most realistic one.

In this step, draw with a pencil a small part of the stone pattern on the upper area of the head and on the upper body. We also try to apply a pattern on the arms and upper legs. Now it is important to try to draw the stones of the shell, so the pencil should be pressed very lightly.

Step 7

If in the last step everything turned out to look like a completed drawing, you can outline the markup with confident, clear lines. We begin to do this, of course, from the head.

Step 8

We perform the same operation, only with the body and the arm of the Creature. The outer contours of the torso can be additionally edged so that they do not merge in the area of the arms and sides of the body. An important point is that the stones on the chest need to be made smoother and more curved in order to convey the angle. As we said, we look up to Ben

Step 9

We draw the shell on the legs. From above, the stones should also be slightly curved. Another important point- as you approach the feet, the stones become smaller.

Step 10

We impose shadows. We use the usual hatching with a soft pencil. First, paint over the darkest places - the belt on the shorts and the space on the inner parts of the legs. Then we cover individual stones with large, vertical shading on:

Torso (chest and abdomen area);
Hands (to the right of us - the elbow and the inner side of the fist, to the left - the outer part of the forearm and armpit);
Legs (hatching intensity increases as you get closer to the feet)

A very difficult lesson. We hope everyone succeeded. Don't forget to check out our VK group, all the best!

Today I will teach you. We already know, and now we will take up the gargoyle.

Now let's move on to drawing the wings. Like everyone else, gargoyles had sharp fangs that we should draw.

At the last stage, we finish drawing the tail, spikes on the ridge, teeth and other small details. After all, it is no secret to anyone that the realism and greatness of any work of art is manifested in the little things. Do not forget about the auxiliary lines that we applied at the beginning. They need to be erased.

Now you can clearly highlight the contours and start painting our gargoyle. This is best done with the help of shading with a soft pencil. If you have a desire, you can finish the environment.

These stone ones look very beautiful against the backdrop of sunset.

Well, how did it happen? In my opinion, TrustNo1 did well too! If you like it - write, I would also like to know

In this lesson we will draw a gargoyle in stages with a pencil. Gargoyle is originally a drainage structure in gothic buildings which was depicted in different types, demons, mermaids, dragons, etc. Subsequently, the gargoyle began to take on a mythical character, a demonic image of an animal that drives away evil spirit and for some reason changed the second letter to "o", i.e. gargoyle.

The drawing will have a side view, we draw the main lines.

We add limbs and wings, the latter, however, are optional, but I like it this way. The note is over. Now we are slowly starting to add details. I start with the head, because then it will be easier to understand what the whole gargoyle will be like. For example, mine has an elongated and narrow skull and long horns, which means that all of it will be quite elegant and a little angular.

Now let's get down to the main step - we plan general form. The main thing here is not to rush and carefully look at what happens. Is it a thin neck or arms and legs? Or vice versa, something needs to be reduced or lengthened, etc.

So, now let's give free rein to imagination and begin to carefully draw our little animal. Add horns and spikes to taste. Let's not forget the muscles. And remember, the scarier the better.
