If you are preparing for Halloween, the ability to draw a ghost will come in handy. Ghosts can be scary, funny, and downright terrifying. It will take only a few seconds to depict a recognizable character, but you can spend a little more time and make a beautiful full-fledged drawing.
It is necessary
- - album sheet;
- - pencil;
- - eraser.
Instructions
Step 1
Draw the eyes of the ghost in the form of two black shapes on a sketchbook. Their shape can be different. In addition to the usual round, try drawing eyes in an oval or semicircular shape. The eye contour can be not only smooth, but also wavy. Experiment with eye options. Thanks to this, you will be able to get different facial expressions of the character.
Step 2
If you draw small eyes inside the black shapes, consisting of white circles and black dots, the ghost will look like a cartoon skeleton. This will make the character's face look creepy even if you paint a smile on it.
Step 3
To make the eyes more expressive, add eyebrows above the ghost's eyes. You can draw them as thin arcs or short dashes. Depending on the slope of the lines, the ghost's gaze can be calm, ominous, or frightened.
Step 4
Next, draw the mouth of the ghost. To make your character fun, draw a downward arc under the eyes. Thus, you will portray a smile on the ghost's face. If you make a mouth that looks like the letter "O", then his face will become frightened.
Step 5
Then draw the head of the character in an arc. Start a line to the left of the face at mid-eye level. Moving around the eyes from above, finish a line to the right of the face, opposite the starting point.
Step 6
Draw the outlines of the ghost's hands. They should start from the extreme points of the head line. Make the arms outstretched ovals. At their ends, draw three sharp fingers, similar to the leaves of trees.
Step 7
Draw the rest of the ghost's body. From the bottom of the character's arms, lower slightly slanted lines. Connect them at the bottom with a wavy line.
Step 8
Erase the top line of the trapezoid and the lines separating the arms from the body with an eraser. Draw folds on the body of the ghost. To do this, place three dots on an imaginary horizontal line dividing the body in half. From these, draw lines down to the lower edge of the ghost's body. Make the lines a little curved.
