In this lesson you can learn how to draw a soldier using a pencil and your own patience.

Previously, we have already drawn drawings on military themes:

In drawing a soldier, you may also find the “” lesson useful, but this is for in-depth understanding. So let's get started.

First we make a base-marking, such a frame for the body of our soldier. At the top there is an oval in the form of a head. Then it connects to the body of two trapezoids, then the line of the legs and also the lines of the arms. Did it look like the picture below? Let's move on.

Within the oval we need to draw the soldier’s head-face. First, we mark the oval with guide lines and draw ears on the sides. Draw the eyes and eyebrows along a horizontal line, and a little lower – the nose and mouth. Add lines to the ears, draw a little short hair soldier

We draw a cap on top. Add its top, as well as a star. Let's finish drawing the neck.

So, our head is ready, we can finish drawing the collar and shoulders of our friend.

The next step will be to draw its shape, or rather its upper part. We draw shoulder straps and a belt.

Pockets, buttons and a star on the belt should also be depicted on the top of the form.

Now you need to draw the lower part - the trousers. Pay attention to the folds.

Don't forget to also draw the hands of our soldier in uniform. We draw the sleeves step by step, and then draw the palms. It won't be very easy for beginners to draw detailed hands, so everything is very sketchy.

All that remains is to draw the boots.

Step-by-step instructions for practical drawing of tanks, planes and helicopters in the process of mastering the art of black-and-white and halftone graphics.

We invite you to learn how to draw domestic, mainly Russian, examples of military equipment in their modern form using a step-by-step method.

Remember! Any mistake made at the very beginning of the drawing process can hopelessly ruin the final result. You may find it difficult at first to draw curved outlines (round, egg-shaped, or sausage-shaped) or even to get the pencil on the paper to the intended point. Don't despair! Stay enthusiastic and continue drawing with persistence and patience. The more practice, the higher the skill. If you wish, you can use a compass - professional artists do not consider this shameful for themselves.

Items needed for work: a blank white sheet of paper good quality, pencil with medium-hard or soft lead, eraser. Compasses, ink, feather, brush, ballpoint pen, felt-tip pen - optional.

Choose a sample of military equipment that you would like to draw. Using light touches of the pencil, without pressure, very carefully and carefully apply on the paper the strokes that make up the initial (first) “step” - usually it is located in the upper left corner of the diagram you have chosen. Then take the second “step” - also without pressure and just as carefully. Keep track not only of the direction and curvature of the lines, but also of the distance between them, that is, their relative position. The size of the drawing should correspond to the size of your sheet of paper - not too small and not too large. The first “steps” seem to be the least difficult, but they must be performed with particular precision, because any mistake made at the beginning of the process can spoil the final result.

It is also very useful to look at the reflection of your work in the mirror from time to time - it can reveal distortions that you would not otherwise be able to notice.

New lines for each “step” are shown in the diagram as bolder, so that it is easier for you to recognize what exactly should be added to your drawing on next stage. Continue working as before with light, thin strokes. If any line turns out to be too thick or dark, lighten it with an eraser: run it along the line without much pressure, without trying to erase it completely.

And a few more tips. Remember that for all the apparent complexity of some objects, they can always be reduced to simple geometric shapes: a ball, a cone, a pyramid, a cube, a parallelepiped, a cylinder.

Try to draw equipment not from the front, but from more advantageous angles, taking into account perspective, so that they look three-dimensional rather than flat.

You can also “cheat” a little when depicting complex details: in order not to be distracted from the integrity of the image and not waste too much time, you can draw them approximately, as a complex of expressive strokes, dots, underlines, and wavy lines.

Well, of course, let’s say, ships do not exist on their own, but, as a rule, organically fit into the surrounding landscape. Therefore, elements of the landscape - sea, river, rocks, even if only slightly outlined - will significantly enliven and enrich the drawing.

Having finished applying light strokes, that is, having completed the entire eight “steps” shown in the selected diagram, and making sure that all the elements of your drawing correspond to the desired image, outline them with confident pencil movements with the necessary pressure. After this final finishing, the drawing can be considered ready. If desired, you can enhance the contrast of the lines using ink (using a thin brush or steel nib), ballpoint pen or felt-tip pen. When the ink, paste or ink is dry, use an eraser to remove any unnecessary pencil marks.

Remember: if the first attempts to draw do not lead to desired result- keep trying. It is very important not to lose perseverance, patience, and enthusiasm. In the end, your efforts will be crowned with complete success - at that moment you may not immediately believe yourself, but you will still be pleasantly surprised by what you have achieved.

We sincerely hope that your drawing skills will improve and the long time spent on recreating the images of all these formidable and in their own way beautiful examples of technology will not be wasted.

So today, continuing the military theme and ignoring all kinds of fantasy and the like, you and I will draw a really cool dude with sniper rifle. In anticipation, I’ll tell you a little about snipers: So, a sniper is a specially trained dude who will give odds to any eagle eye, since, aiming at a small peephole, he manages to hit the target and hit that very target. Here are the types of snipers:

  1. Sniper saboteur. This is the one who is found in many computer games. Acts alone or with a partner. He tries in every possible way not to give himself away: quieter than water, lower than the grass, that is. It can kill at a distance of 1.5 - 2 kilometers. The weapon is a first-class, precision rifle with a silencer.
  2. Infantry sniper. Works alongside the infantry. It shoots at important targets with general bang, so it doesn’t really need a silencer. The distance is usually up to 400 meters, there is no time to take special aim.
  3. Police sniper. Well, this one is generally a loser compared to the previous two: it shoots at a distance of no more than two hundred meters. But not everything is so simple, it turns out. Usually the criminal is armed and has already pointed his gun at the helpless victim. So you need to shoot in such a way as to hit your finger and prevent this bastard from shooting.

So, let's get creative.

How to draw military equipment with a pencil step by step

Step one: Draw an oval head at the top of the sheet. From there downwards there is a large body. We will outline other parts of the body with large oval shapes. The man holds military equipment in his hands, but so far it is only an elongated figure.
Step two We gradually transform all the defining details into the human body. Some details of the clothing are already visible. Let's give the rifle the desired shape.
Step Three Draw the clothes: a T-shirt, a cap, rolled-up pants, and shoes. Let's pay more attention weapons. It is squeezed by strong gloved fingers. By the way, there are folds on the trousers and gloves. Now let's move on to the face. The eyes are covered with dark glasses, and a small ear is clearly drawn. There is a thick beard on his face.
Step Four Everything that we have drawn needs to be strengthened: outline, add lines, and then draw in the missing details. This is how we ended up with a strong man, holding a serious gun in his hands and carefully watching the target.
I also advise you to look at drawing lessons for other types of weapons, for example.

In this lesson we will look at how to draw the Great Patriotic War(WWII) 1941-1945 in pencil step by step. This is the war of the USSR against Germany and its allies. The Second One World War began on September 1, 1939, if you are interested in how it all began and what were the prerequisites for development, then read the article on Wikipedia. But let's start drawing.

Draw a horizon - a horizontal line, it is located approximately 1/3 of the top of the sheet. Draw a country road below and place three soldiers, the further away, the smaller the scale. Click on the picture to enlarge.

We draw houses and hills on the horizon, then the farthest soldier, he should not be big. Click on the image to see the details.

We draw the second one with a weapon behind a hillock, its head and body are slightly larger than the previous one, about 1.5 times.

Draw a soldier with a weapon in the foreground.

Apply dark areas on the bodies of the soldiers and on the weapons, draw a little grass.

Use strokes to define the grass, slopes and field.

Now, using a lighter tone, we imitate the smoke from the fires, we shade the steppe part, and in the foreground we highlight the bumpiness of the hillock and trench. This is how you can draw it.
