Draw a Sea Turtle
Do you want to draw an underwater reptile? Here's your chance to learn how to draw a sea turtle.
Steps
- Look at a sea turtle. If you don't have a sea turtle around, a picture of one will do. This article roughly follows the photo above.
- Draw an egg-shaped body. One end of the egg can (and should) be a bit wider than the other.
- Draw a head on the wider end.
- Draw flippers and feet. The feet should be much smaller than the flippers.
- Draw a crescent moon shape on the top of the shell.
- On the larger part of the shell, draw some kind of design. It can be realistic or fanciful, depending on what sort of turtle you want to draw.
- On the smaller part, draw a simple design, like lines.
- For the head, draw an eye and a mouth and lightly color.
- Draw a tail and shade that in lightly too.
- Draw scaly designs on the flippers and the feet. Color the rest of the turtle, if you wish.
Tips
- On your turtle's body, make the moon shape about 1/6 of the oval.
- Make it simple.
Warnings
- Try to make your flippers the same size.
- Curve the tail up so it looks right.
