Draw Camouflage

Basic camouflage is fairly easy to draw once you get it.

Steps

  1. Look at a few photos of camouflage to get an idea of its form.
  2. Draw a big (or small, depending on your paper size) splotch.
  3. Draw the next splotch so that it fits into the previous one like a puzzle piece.
  4. Continue drawing these splotches until your area of paper is covered.
  5. Color them gray, green, black, brown, or whatever you see fit.

Alternate Method

  1. Start by drawing random curvy shapes, they kind of look like ink stains, be sure to make them dispersed, this will be the first color batch of patches out of four.
    • The illustrator used different shades of grey for you to easily recognize the different batches of ink stains.
  2. Repeat the process, make some shapes bigger or smaller than the first few, of course you will need a different color for this batch.
  3. That's right draw even a third batch of ink stains.
  4. Now you can just paint the remaining unfilled spaces with another color and that will be your last batch.
  5. If you used the "one batch at a time" method, your camouflage is already painted.
  6. You can use different shades of colors for different camouflage purposes. This one is for a jungle scenario.



Warnings

  • If you color one splotch say, brown, try to keep from coloring the one next to that the same color. Otherwise, it will look like a bigger splotch, creating an emphasis point, and draw all the attention away from the rest of the artwork.
