Hello again everyone!
Call your children to the monitors, because today we will learn how to easily draw a minion step by step. For those who don’t know, minions are such cute and funny characters from the animated trilogy “Despicable Me”. All of them yellow, look like a package from a chocolate egg toy, speak their own own language and always end up in interesting situations led by his master, a gangly man with a big nose named Gru. Although I think that every adult, and even more so a child, can imagine what these restless pets look like.
I will draw with a felt-tip pen, you can follow my example or use with a simple pencil, so that if something happens, you can correct the drawing. Take a sheet of paper, preferably a landscape one.
If you want to draw a large minion, then it is better to place the sheet vertically; if you plan to draw several pieces next to each other, then you can horizontally. All minions are very similar to each other, but there is one thing significant difference- some are luckier and have two eyes, while others are content with only one. I will draw a more developed yellow belly, which sees twice as well.
I'll start drawing from the eyes. First, we draw two identical circles, around which we make an edging. The edging will serve as glasses in the future. The result is an eight.
To make the eyes real, add pupils to them. I draw two pieces, whoever decides to draw a one-eyed Cyclops can do it twice as fast! 
At the next stage, we will draw a body for our minion. Here you can dream up. Depending on the size of the torso, it will be high, short or normal, like mine. 
Are there bald minions? Certainly! But I decided to make mine handsome and gave him these rare curls. You can depict the hair on your head in a different way, for example, draw a thick bunch from one point, similar to how a palm tree grows. And at this stage, don’t forget to draw the glasses strap. It turned out like this. 
The yellow men are mostly dressed in the same denim overalls, in other words just pants with straps. My friend is no exception. Now I’ll draw the very straps that hold the pants on. The dots on the straps are buttons or buttons. 
Almost left our yellow hero without the opportunity to discuss latest news with brothers. Let's go back and draw his mouth. I love to smile, so of course I decorated my face with a smiling grin. 
What's next, you ask? Next we will draw the hands, one raised up, the other down. Yours may be different, both up, both down, you can even portray a one-armed bandit. In fact, these are just blanks; a little later we will turn them into real hands. 
Let's return to the torso and clothes, let's complete the overalls with the obligatory pocket in the middle. 
In the next step, let's finish the arms and draw the hands, in my drawing it turned out like this. 
There is a head, there are hands. What's missing? Correctly draw the minion's legs. This is also easy and simple to do. That's it, the drawing is ready! 
Of course, children love colorful and bright drawings more. Therefore, to ensure that the impressions from today’s lesson remain in your memory for a long time, take pencils or markers and color the picture, as I did. Our minion itself is yellow, the clothes are blue, the eyes are brown, and the glasses can be shaded with a silver felt-tip pen or a simple pencil. I think it turned out great, write your opinion in the comments. 
Fresh wind in your face, measured rocking of the deck, the taste of salt on your lips. Who hasn’t at least once dreamed of becoming the captain of a ship sailing towards adventure? By drawing a ship, you automatically become its commander-in-chief and send it on a mysterious voyage. It depends only on you what awaits him over the horizon.
How to draw a ship for a child
Draw a horizontal line on a piece of paper to mark the boundary of the water. Draw an irregular tetragon over the line, rounding one of the smaller sides (body).
Draw a rectangle on top of it (the cabin), outline the shape of the stern.
Mark the location of the window and cabin door.
Above the deckhouse, draw an elongated rectangle (pipe) and draw several horizontal stripes on it. Draw a porthole on the door to the control room. Mark the location of the waterline on the hull.
Use an eraser to erase unnecessary lines and let the ship float on the waves.
The ship is ready, you can paint it if desired.
How to draw a ship easily
Draw a free-form hull of the ship.
Place 2 mats in the middle of the body. On each mast, draw 2 horizontal lines (yards, sails are attached to them). “Stretch” a rope from the first mast to the bow of the ship, and place a triangular sail on it.
From the top of the second mast, stretch the rope to the stern of the ship. You also need to draw a sail on it. Under each yard, draw a quadrangle with curved bottom and sides (sails). The more curvature the lines are, the more the sail inflates. Add flags to the mast.
Erase the extra lines.
Color the sailboat as you wish.

How to draw a ship step by step
Draw the hull of the ship, and there are 3 masts on it.
To the left of the edge of the hull, draw a straight line at a slight angle (bowsprit - protrudes on the bow of a sailing ship. It is used to move the center of sail forward, which improves the maneuverability of the ship). Draw 4 perpendicular yards to the first 2 masts, draw inclined yards to the third mast. Approximately in the middle of the body, mark the boundary of the water.
Draw the cables holding the masts. The third is secured with 1 rope, the rest are secured with 4 ropes.
Mark the shape of the sail on the first mast.
Give the sails volume by drawing an arc at the bottom. Mark the positions of the sails on the 2nd and 3rd masts.
Add volume to the sails. From the bowsprit to the front mast of the ship, draw 3 cables.
Add triangular sails to the cables. Add another one to the third mast, keep in mind that its lower corners are attached to the deck.
Add details to the sailboat by drawing folds in the sails, the texture of the ship, additional ropes, and waves.
How to draw a ship with sails. Drawing a frigate
A frigate is a fast warship with 3 masts. It was used both for long-range reconnaissance and for independent combat operations (the prototype of cruisers).
Draw an irregular polygon, shaped like a trapezoid (body).
Mark the position of the masts, the middle one should be longer than the first, the one on the far left the shortest. Add a bowsprit to the bow of the sailboat. Mark the location of the yards.
Mark the location of the rectangular sails. There are 3 of them on the first 2 masts, and 2 on the last one. Draw a triangular sail for the bowsprit.
Shape the ship's hull. Round the side lines, the bow should be slightly higher than the stern. Add railings to the deck. You can add windows on the hull.
Draw the outlines of the bowsprit and masts.
Divide the triangular sail into 2 parts, give them a bend. Give the rest of the sails volume.
Darken the lower part of the body, the upper part is lightly shaded. Add shadows along the bottom of the sails, draw flags, rigging, and rope ladders on the masts.
How to draw a pirate ship
Draw a three-dimensional hull of the ship, and on it there are 3 masts (the middle one is the highest).
Next to the 3rd mast draw a triangular sail. The sails of the 1st and 2nd masts have a trapezoidal shape. Add a bowsprit with a sail and the outline of the keel at the bottom of the ship's hull.
Add crow's nests and flags to the masts. Add details to the hull by drawing the stern deck and bow of the ship.
Draw the rigging and rope ladders. Add a pirate emblem to the flags. Draw the hull of the ship.
How to draw sailing ship
Draw an oval (the hull of the ship), three masts with ropes, 2 auxiliary lines along the hull at a slight angle.
Using auxiliary lines, draw the elongated bow of the ship and the stern. Add yards and ropes to the masts.
Draw sails on the masts and windows on the hull. Emphasize the wooden structure of the sailboat by drawing a few lines on it.
Add the remaining sails and small parts of the ship.
Erase auxiliary and extra lines.
How to drawb ship in pencil. Drawing a Galleon
This is a large vessel with good maneuverability, designed for long passages on the open sea. As a rule, 3 or 4 masts. The first two masts have straight sails, the others have slanting sails.
Mark on the drawing the position of the ship's stern, masts and yards.
Outline the hull of the ship, marking the main guides of the sides. Feature sailfish - high, richly decorated stern. Draw the masts and sketch out the voluminous sails.
Work out the hull details, armament, decorate the stern and sides. Erase the auxiliary lines and lighten the drawing.
Hatch the sails and hull of the ship, having decided on the light source in advance.
Instructions
The most primitive version of the boat available to babies fine arts- a straight horizontal line, a triangle is drawn in the center of it at the top. These can be used to depict an endless horizon, beyond the line of which a sailboat has almost disappeared from view.
A more complicated version - the boat sailed a little closer so that the stern became visible. Instead of a straight line, draw a trapezoid with the wide side up. Upgrade the sail by adding a mast.
At the next stage, you can try to depict not one, but two sails. At the top of the mast, draw a flag - triangular or rectangular. You can depict some kind of symbol on the flag - three petals, for example, or a cross.
On any ship there are items that you cannot do without. Place the steering wheel in the bow of the boat. First, it will be a circle that needs to be turned into a steering wheel by drawing an additional one around. On the steering wheel draw something like petals, and inside the circle there are rays - like the spokes of a bicycle wheel.
Another important thing is the anchor. At the bottom of the back of the ship on the side, draw a cross, at its top a small circle, and under the base a concave arc. Make the ends of the arc in the form of arrows, adding checkmarks. From the circle up to the very stern, you need to draw a chain on which the anchor hangs - several even smaller circles close to each other.
By polishing your skills as a novice artist, you can improve the boat by decorating it (if you have free space on the deck) with a second mast and adding a few more sails - large and small triangles. Sails can also be depicted as curved rectangles - as if they were inflated by a gust of wind.
In addition to the anchor, any reputable ship must be equipped with life preservers. Draw at least one rescue “steering wheel” in the bow of the ship. In the middle of the side add three circles - portholes.
Spend a few minutes below the ship wavy lines symbolizing the sea. Color the picture. The sails can be made yellow or blue, or left white, just outlined with a bold outline. The flag is suitable in any color - red or green, with or without a pattern. The side of the ship can be decorated with a bright wide strip along its entire length. Highlight the anchor by coloring it black or whatever dark color. The lifebuoy can be left white, adding only a few red stripes across the steering wheel. Shade the portholes or paint them blue or yellow paint- depending on the color of the ship itself.
What an adult can do, seems very difficult and sometimes unattainable for kids. Drawing lessons help your child to develop comprehensively, so teachers recommend holding classes with your child several times a week, in which you, as an adult, knowledgeable person, you will tell your child the stages of creating his first independent masterpieces.
If you have set yourself the goal of teaching your child to draw, then be patient. You shouldn’t expect your child to do everything perfectly the first time. Learn to praise your baby for his achievements, albeit small ones.
If you don’t have drawing skills, but you really want to do this with your baby, look through the relevant literature, read articles on the Internet that will step by step tell you how to create the drawing correctly.
Also choose a topic according to the age of the child. You shouldn’t show how to draw a sparrow to a three-year-old child. Observe the lesson time; for example, for a four-year-old child, a quarter of an hour will be enough. Offer to take a break.
Today's lesson will teach children aged 3 years and older how to draw a ship with a pencil step by step. To do this you will need a piece of paper, a pencil and a little patience.
Step-by-step creation of an elementary drawing
It should be remembered that kids love to inherit, so prepare paper and pencil for both yourself and your child.
The beginning of the drawing consists of a straight horizontal line. Having drawn it, you can explain to the child why this line has such a name and what it is in in this case stands for water.
- Let's draw the side of the boat with a pencil.
- Let's place a mast that will run parallel to the base.
- Let's add a developing sail.
- Don't forget to draw a flag on the mast.
This is one of the most simple ways sketches of a ship for very young children. If your child can draw the main details without your participation, then you can teach him to make the image more dynamic.
To do this, show him how to draw waves and seagulls.
Don't forget to give your child the opportunity to color his drawing. It also contributes to the overall development of children.
Creating a More Complex Pattern
The drawing of a ship with several sailing masts has a more complex execution technique, which is based on the knowledge and skills acquired in the first lesson.
The initial steps when creating the base are identical to the previous ones, but here it can be slightly increased in size, and the top line of the side of the future ship will be slightly concave in the middle. Next, draw two or three masts as desired.
Next you need to draw three triangular shapes, which are connected by a straight line at the bottom. We gradually draw trapezoids from the bottom up near the masts, starting with large figures and gradually making them smaller. These will be the inflated sails of the ship.
The next stage is connecting each sail to each other. The ropes are carefully drawn.
The last, final stage will be the details:
- flags;
- portholes on board;
- waves;
- possible pirate emblems.
Children can draw such a more complex boat preschool age provided you have good basic drawing skills.
Drawing details
This stage in drawing is important. After the children have been taught to draw the base, you need to explain that by using details you can bring the picture to life.
Give your child time to remember what exactly is on the ship. He can name many different things, for example, flag, helm, anchor, captain, barrel, pirate. Invite him to draw it.
You can also fill other parts of the picture with details: sky, sun, fish, sea, birds. Let the child himself offer options for what he sees next to the ship. Sometimes children's imagination is limitless and can surprise.
So, step by step, the baby will learn to improve his drawings and, thus, will develop comprehensively.
No matter how your child succeeds in drawing his first drawing, always praise him. Ask them to tell you what is depicted, and then the drawing lessons will be beneficial. They should contribute to your baby's development.
This article contains instructions step by step drawing warships to design a themed postcard or prepare a school wall newspaper for the holiday. The finished drawing can also become an independent gift for dad and grandfather.
Here you will find step-by-step description drawing of a warship with pencils, paints, and learn how to draw a festive parade of warships.
Since drawing military equipment is not easy, and our instructions are intended for schoolchildren, some details are depicted schematically. This does not make the picture lose its picturesqueness, but it is easier to depict it.
We choose a drawing that we like best, prepare a simple pencil, paper, eraser, paints and brushes, colored pencils - if desired, and get involved in the creative process.
How to draw a warship with a pencil for a child step by step?
Before we get started, let’s remember some of the subtleties of making pencil drawings:
- the initial strokes are applied to the paper with light touches, without pressure
- It is more convenient to draw the first lines starting from the upper left corner
- start drawing from the body.
Large warships from the Second World War look more impressive: they are equipped with large gun turrets and chimneys.
- Numerous details will bring the drawing to life.
- the drawing must fit into a sheet of paper, which means it should not be too small or too large (a rectangle is first drawn on a sheet of paper, inside which the image will be applied)
- in a drawing, the direction of the lines and their relative position, therefore the first strokes are applied with particular precision (the final result can be affected by any mistake made at the beginning of the process
Draw new lines also without pressure. If any stroke turns out to be too dark or bold, go over it without pressing with an eraser, without completely erasing it.
- Even if it seems to you that it is very difficult to depict a certain element of a warship, then by giving it a simple geometric shape (cone, ball, pyramid, cube, parallelepiped, cylinder), you can easily move on to the next stage.
- The drawn ship needs to fit organically into the surrounding landscape. Elements of the landscape, even if slightly outlined, will improve the impression of the picture, enlivening and enriching it.
- After all the elements have been applied to the paper in accordance with desired sample, they can be traced with confident movements of the pencil, pressing it if necessary.
- Finishing with a ballpoint pen or felt-tip pen will enhance the contrast.
- Unnecessary pencil marks are removed during the process or at the final stage.
If the first strokes do not lead to desired result, then you shouldn’t quit your job. The main thing is not to lose perseverance and keep trying. Then your patience and enthusiasm will be crowned with success and you will be pleasantly surprised by the results achieved.

Drawing a warship with a pencil
- We draw the elongated hull of the ship, located at an angle. Let's draw a center line.
Drawing the elongated hull of the ship 
Draw a straight line in the center and clarify the shape of the body - Let's draw a straight line from which we'll start drawing the ship's superstructure.
- Let's continue drawing the lower part of the body, drawing a line along the one already drawn.
- Let's draw the bow of the ship with a curved line.
- Let's work on the superstructures on the deck: draw two rectangles and draw 4 perpendicular lines: 2 on the back of the ship's hull, and 2 on the front.
Drawing rectangular superstructures on the deck - We draw the superstructures of the ship, giving them the appearance of parallelepipeds, cones and cylinders.
- We draw 3 more straight lines on the center line of the ship's hull.
Specifying the form of the add-ons - We are working on the guns on the deck and clarifying additional small details.
Finishing the cylindrical superstructures - Add waves on the water, draw contours and erase auxiliary lines.
Adding guns and missing parts 
Finished drawing The second version of the drawing of a warship -battleship "Sevastopol"
- Using light lines we outline the hull of the ship. At the bottom of the body we draw 9 curved lines to indicate the volume of the body.
- We depict the superstructure on the body with a few strokes. We clarify the contours of the body by continuing the drawn 9 lines upward.
- We draw the guns on the deck and shade some areas.
- We wipe away any excess pencil marks and continue shading.
- Adding the missing elements. Draw the reflection of the ship in the water.
Drawing an aircraft carrier
- Let's draw the outline of the vessel with light dashed lines, trying to maintain all proportions.
Drawing the initial contours - We draw small details: railings and beams, electronics in the upper part of the ship. Accuracy is not so important here, so you can draw some elements schematically.
Let's draw top part ship - We draw in more detail the lower part of the ship's tower. The stages of drawing an aircraft carrier are shown in the photo.
Let's pay attention to the ship's hull, drawing all the small details. On both sides of the deck we will draw parking areas for aircraft.
Draw the lower part of the superstructures on the deck 
Refine the image of the deck - Draw the bow of the ship. Add an anchor.
Finishing the bow of the ship 
The aircraft carrier drawing is ready Video: Learning to draw ships How to draw a combat warship with a pencil step by step
How to draw a warship with paints for a child step by step?
- Let's start drawing a warship by dividing the sheet with a vertical line into two halves: the right and lower parts. This will help to correctly draw the contours of the ship.
Draw a modified triangle - Let's draw a slightly modified triangle in the left half. From two points of the triangle we draw straight lines to right side: lower - straight, upper - with a downward slope.
We draw two straight lines - The back of the ship's hull is hidden from the viewer, so we do not connect the straight lines, leaving a small gap between them.
Designating the captain's bridge - Let's draw the captain's bridge. To do this, we will depict all the elements in the form of rectangles, checking the lines with the drawing in the photo.
We complete the captain's bridge by drawing strokes between the rectangles - To complete the bridge, you need to draw straight lines down from each rectangular figure. As you can see, the hard part A warship can be depicted using simple strokes drawn in the desired direction.
Drawing guns - There is a gun on the deck of a warship, which is drawn like this: we draw two lines at a distance from each other on the front of the ship, and under them we draw parallel lines. Now we draw a semi-oval to which the trunks are attached, and add another small semicircle at the back of the ship (at the stern).
- We detail the drawing, depicting all the missing elements.
Applying the finishing touches - At the final stage of creating a sketch of the ship, you can draw a flag, portholes on the ship's hull and an anchor at the bottom of it. Let's draw a straight line along the entire body.
- A ship cannot exist on its own or simply hang in the air. Therefore, let's draw waves under it.
Draw portholes and an anchor on the bow of the ship - We erase everything rough lines, trying not to touch the main contour. Let's start painting: use gray paint for the ship, make the sea deep blue.
Drawing waves 
Coloring the drawing How to draw a festive Parade of warships at the Victory Parade?
Well, now let's try to draw a festive Parade of warships. Or rather, one of the moments of the parade.
Let's prepare everything you need for the drawing:
- sheet of watercolor paper
- simple pencil and eraser
- available paints (gouache or watercolor)
- brushes
- two containers of water (one for rinsing brushes, the other for wetting paints and adding water to the palette)
- clean cloth
- palette or what will be used instead (white plate, sheet of paper)
Let's get started:
- Place the sheet horizontally. In order for the child to cope with some elements of the ship, we will explain to him that it is much easier to depict complex figure, if you give it the usual geometric shape (triangle, rectangle, square).
- We retreat from the bottom edge of the sheet by 4-5 cm and draw a rectangle with an elongated corner, which will become the “bow” of the ship.
- If the student is already familiar with the names geometric shapes, then we say that you need to draw a horizontally elongated trapezoid, one corner of which is higher than the rest.
- Since at a military parade the ship is surrounded by another military equipment, then we will depict the contours of an airplane in the sky, reminiscent of the body of a dolphin or fish. To do this, you need to retreat 3 cm from the top edge of the sheet.
- A cannon is usually mounted on the deck of a warship. Let's draw it in the form of a semicircle with a protruding barrel. Let's draw an airplane cockpit with a pilot and a navigator in it.
- We draw the wings of the airplane. Let's depict the middle one in the form of an elongated rectangle, and give the back one the shape of a triangle. Let's draw a small triangle on the tail of the plane (in its lower part).
- We draw the superstructures on the ship in the form of rectangular steps, in which there are cabins and service annexes.
- We draw the locators, giving them a triangular shape, with circles-portholes under them. We equip the ship with another small cannon. We detail the picture by drawing doors and windows.
- Let's draw an identification flag that flutters beautifully in the wind.
- Adding porthole windows in the lower decks and an anchor. We draw the horizon line.
- Let's start applying paint. We will cover the ship and plane with silver-gray color. To obtain the desired shade, mix on the palette blue with white, and combine with a small amount of black.
- Too much dark color dilute with white paint. Initially, you need to outline the outline of the ship and only then paint it completely.
- We will decorate the plane with the same paint composition, adding a little more blue to it.
- We paint the sea with a mixture of emerald green or azure blue. We start drawing waves from the bottom of the sheet, continuing them to the base of the ship.
- We put more water on the brush and paint over the area of water up to the horizon line.
- We draw waves in the lower half of the sheet with a mixture of black, purple and blue paints. Draw a shadow at the edge of the ship with the same color.
- Let's draw blue a few circles to the left. It will be festive fireworks. We use the same color for the sky and the airplane cabin.
- We wait until the drawing dries and with a thin brush we begin to outline the contours of military equipment, portholes, and guns. For this we use a mixture of black and purple paints.
- We put red paint on a brush and draw a stripe on the flag. After this, we paint the bottom of the ship and the fireworks red. Add white paint on the flag.
- Draw the foamy crest of the wave and paint over the areas in the drawing with red paint
