Drawing a dragon might be a hard task for people that do not know how to draw; however, these simple tips will help you draw like a pro.

Follow the tips below on how to draw a dragon.

1. Draw two circles as a guide for the dragon’s body; please pay attention to space within the circles. They determine the size of your dragon.

2. Now draw a smaller circle on the upper right side of the dragon’s body; this smaller circle will determine the dragon’s neck length.

3. Draw a small arc next to the small circle, which is the head; the arc will be a guide for the dragon’s muzzle.

4. Draw angled lines below the body. This will stand as the dragon’s legs, make some parts of the lines darker to create the stripey look.

Now use a series of curved lines to connect all major shapes to form.

Drawing a dragon can be easy as long as you would stick with easy dragon drawings first. To start drawing a dragon, these are just a few things that you can do:

• Start with a v−shape because this is what you will base on when you are making a mouth.

• You need to add jaws. Depending on the type of dragon that you want to create, you can make a scary−looking dragon or something that will look cute.

• Draw the top portion of the dragon’s body.

• Add the legs of the dragon.

• Start adding the claws of the dragon.

• Add the different details such as the eyes, the teeth, and all of the other details that will make your dragon look like an actual dragon.

• Draw the right lines.

• Draw some spikes.

With all of these things in mind, you will be able to draw a dragon even if you are a beginner.

Drawing a dragon can be both fun and challenging, especially if you are a beginner withdrawing, but with a few simple steps, you can create some masterpiece.

• Draw a circle in the middle of your paper.

• Use a pencil and lightly sketch so that later you can remove the parts you had traced.

• Create a sphere in the center of the page and keep the room on either side so that you can add more detail to the dragon.

• The circle does not need to be entirely round.

• Use a compass to come as close to round as possible.

• Add a rounded trapezoid on the side of your circle to create the snout of the creature.

• Draw the top flat line coming from the bottom of the circle to make the bottom of the snout.

• The two lines should be attached and rounded.

• Make parallel lines coming out of the bottom of the circle for the dragon’s neck.

• Start with one of the lines where the bottom of the snout becomes bonded to the head.

• There should be a curved line from the head.

• Draw another curved line that is parallel to the first.

• Make the lines further apart near the bottom.

• Sketch a curved horizontal line through the trapezoid to make a mouth.

• Extend the line horizontally.

• It should end nearby the middle of the head.

• Add triangles in the mouth to make the teeth.

• Add bumps and ridges on the top of the dragon’s head for more texture.

• Erase the lines you used to trace.

• Shade the drawing and add color to make it bolder and livelier.

You may want to draw different things but right now, you would like to know how to draw a dragon. There are different things that you can do to make this possible.
* First, you need to know where you would like to draw the dragon. Do you want to draw the dragon on paper? Would you rather draw a dragon on the computer or the gadget that you are using?
* No matter where you are going to draw, make sure that you have the right tools that are available.
* The next step is to decide what type of dragon you are planning to draw.
For beginners, you need to draw a simple head shape first. Then you need to draw a simple body. You need to place some hands and legs before you start making the claw shapes. Once you are done with everything, you can just add a few details so that you can make your dragon look more like a dragon.

• The first step in drawing a dragon is to draw a sideways “V” shape for the open mouth. The V shape should have its pointed side facing the right side.

• Add jaws that look like that of a crocodile to the previously drawn V shape

• The next step after all that is to draw the top of its body, the top of the body has a kind of “S” shape

• Add bottom to the top of the body. This would take almost the same shape as the top of the body

• Add two legs to the body

• Add claws to the legs

• To the V-shaped mouth, add an eye, teeth, and some other details that make up for the face.

• Draw the belly lines. This comes up at around the bottom

• Draw spikes on its back then fire in its mouth area with clouds serving as part of the background

• Trace and color your dragon.

Drawing is a fun hobby to do and as one becomes more experienced, they may want to expand the catalog of items they draw. One thing that can be drawn is a dragon.

This is how you may draw one.

• First, draw two circles, which should be guides for the body of the dragon

• To the right of the body, draw a smaller circle

• Next to the head, draw an arc. This is the muzzle of the dragon

• Then, draw lines, which are legs for the dragon

• Continue to draw lines for the arms, as well as the tail

• Then, draw the wings of the dragon

• From there, you will add on the eyes and teeth.

• You can then outline, erase the sketch, and then color it.
