Do you want to go on a big space trip? Nothing is impossible - just take out a sheet of paper, pencils and paints. In a fantastic adventure you will encounter unknown worlds, unexplored planets, strange creatures that, of course, can be drawn. You can even create a fantastic comic or cartoon. But first you need to draw something on which you will fly to explore distant worlds, that is, a rocket. Rockets are different, but the most traditional version is the same as on old Soviet postcards from the beginning of the space age.
It is necessary
- - paper;
- - a simple pencil;
- - watercolor paints;
- - brush;
- - a set of postcards dedicated to space exploration;
Instructions
Step 1
Determine in which position you will draw the rocket. If she is just getting ready for the start, it is better to put the sheet vertically. Any position of the sheet is possible for the image of a flying rocket. It is better to pre-tinted paper. Any colors are possible in Space, but think first what color the rocket will be. If it is light, then the sky can be bright or even black. Draw a bright rocket on a black or, conversely, a pale background.
Step 2
Mark the direction of the rocket with the center line. If your rocket is just getting ready for launch, only the vertical centerline will be enough. If the rocket is flying, draw perpendiculars to the centerline in both directions at its lowest point. From this point, set aside distances up and down, approximately equal to 1/4 of the length of the perpendicular and put points. Connect the ends of the perpendiculars and these points with an oval.
Step 3
From the ends of the perpendiculars up, draw lines parallel to the centerline, about 2/3 of the height of the rocket. Connect the ends of these lines to the top end of the centerline with straight lines. They do not need to be drawn along the ruler, the lines should be soft.
Step 4
Draw stabilizers. To do this, from the end of each perpendicular, set aside along the side lines of the rocket a height equal to about 1/3 of its height. Place points on the side lines just above the perpendiculars and draw straight lines to both sides equal to about half the length of the perpendicular. Connect the resulting point to the point marking the third of the side line of the rocket. On the sides, 2 identical triangles turned out.
Step 5
Draw a third stabilizer. Place one point on the centerline just above the lowest point, and the second at a height equal to 1/3 of the rocket height. On both sides of these points, draw short, equal segments, connecting their ends with straight lines. You should end up with a long but very narrow rectangle.
Step 6
Above the middle stabilizer, you can draw one or two portholes. They are simply circles of any size along the centerline. If there are several of them, the distances between them must be equal.
Step 7
Color the rocket. Apply a thin layer of paint by grabbing the side stabilizers. Do not paint over the portholes yet. Apply a second thin layer, leaving a strip in the middle. Apply the third layer only from the sides of the rocket body. Paint over the portholes in any other color.
