Today we will tell you what drawings on the theme of war you can draw for the holiday “Victory Day”. This great holiday informs us that in 1945 we won a victory over Nazi Germany. The 1941 war was the worst and claimed many lives. Now, celebrating this holiday, we pay tribute to our grandfathers and great-grandfathers for their victory!
If you want to draw drawing on the theme of the Great Patriotic War, then we will help you with this! Here are the options for themes for drawing war:
1. Battlefield (tanks, planes, military);
2. In the trench (a military man shoots from a trench, a doctor bandages a wound in a trench);
3. Portrait of a military man or full height;
4. The return of a soldier from the war.
Topic: Great Patriotic War (1941-1945) drawings
Here is a lesson on this topic that we have prepared for you. It shows a fight between two soldiers on the battlefield. This drawing is quite simple to make; you can color it with pencils, paints or any other way.
We have also prepared pictures for you to draw. There is children's drawing on the topic of war and several examples of pictures on the same topic. You can simply sit in front of your computer and draw any of these pictures with a pencil.
And also here are some variants of drawings on the theme of war, drawn with a pencil or pen.
Children's drawing on the theme of war
Especially for beginning artists, we have developed several step-by-step lessons. How to learn to draw a tank, a military plane or a rocket with a pencil - this is what you can learn, and if you come up with a drawing theme and combine several of our lessons into one, you will get a complete drawing on the theme of the Great Patriotic War!
2 variants of St. George ribbons
And here are 2 options for tanks for your drawing. It’s difficult to draw them, but it’s possible with the help of our lessons.
We draw various military equipment: airplane, helicopter, rocket. All the lessons below will help even a novice artist draw a picture on the theme of the Great Patriotic War.
Drawing on the theme of Victory
If you need to draw greeting card, then here are the lessons on drawing a postcard with a pencil (everything is explained step by step). The cards depict symbols of victory, and the inscriptions “Happy Victory Day!” are beautifully executed.
On the postcard you will draw a beautiful number 9, congratulatory inscriptions, stars and ribbons.
And here is a drawing of a military order, a St. George ribbon and an inscription for Victory Day.
May 9 is coming soon and I really want you to be able to prepare good and beautiful cards and posters for this significant event in our .
In this lesson we will practice with Lesia (you can easily find her website on Google), how to draw a postcard for Victory Day in the Great Patriotic War. With its help, everything will work out easily and we can quickly and easily learn how to draw the Great Patriotic War and a battlefield with real ones. We will try to downplay the contribution and evaluate it according to the fact, so that they do not get too excited and rewrite history in their own way. And we will try to provide more attention veterans, thanks to whom we can be proud of our history and live in the modern world.
We all know and remember the years of the Second World War of 1941-1945 and we know that the USSR waged a bloody struggle against Nazi Germany and its allies. So it's time to start drawing the battlefield and Soviet soldiers!
Step 1.
Let's start with a basic sketch of the drawing. Draw a horizon line about a third of the way from the top of the paper. Add a couple of lines for a country road in the battlefield. Then we will draw a schematic diagram of three soldiers on one straight line going into the distance to show the line of defense. The further away the soldier is, the smaller he is naturally. For a more convenient view, you can click on the picture and take a closer look.
Step 2.
Now let's diversify the horizon a little. Let's finish drawing small houses and forest shape lines. Let's add a little hilliness. Then let's start drawing the farthest soldier. Be sure to enlarge the image of the battle drawing for yourself so as not to miss the small details of the drawing.
Step 3.
Let's draw the next soldier. We'll put a combat rifle in his hands and also draw a small defensive hillock. The soldier himself has already been slightly increased in size compared to the previous one.
Step 4.
Now let's deal with the soldier on the main close-up. Try to consider the shape of his helmet and add details for the rifle.
Step 5.
Let's easily and simply apply shadows to the bodies of the soldiers and their weapons. We will also draw in the details of the background so that the grass and landscape become noticeable.
Step 6.
Using strokes we will sketch the grass in the field and add the shapes of the hilly terrain.
Step 7
Now, using a light, light tone of pencil smudges, we will convey on the horizon the shapes of smoke from fires in a local village, we will finally shade the field drawing and add details for the hillocks and the soldiers’ trenches. We did a great job and can see what else to draw for May 9th!
Hello! In today's lesson we will tell you how to draw a Soviet soldier.
The fact is that this topic concerns each of us - after all, “there is no family in Russia where its hero is not remembered.” Taking this opportunity, I would like to ask every reader whose heroes are alive and well to express to them your attention, recognition and care.
This article is being written on the eve of a great holiday - Victory Day, but we would really like our Heroes to receive congratulations and respect not only on this important day, but also all the other 364 days of the year. Call yours and your grandmothers, provide all possible assistance in everyday issues, ask about their health, give them a cool, complex drawing that you personally created in their honor. The team of our site can help you with the last point - let's start drawing a real Hero - the Soviet Soldier!
Step 1
This lesson is quite complicated, but we will start drawing it with a very simple stickman - a man made of sticks and circles. However, do not be deceived by its simplicity - the fact is that this stage is the most important of the entire lesson, because mistakes made here will be very difficult to correct in the future. Before we start drawing a stickman, let’s remember the basic rules of body proportions: a person’s height is equal to the sum of the lengths of about 7 heads, with 3 of them falling on the torso (from the neck to the waist), and 4 on the legs. The arms, extended at the seams, reach the middle of the distance from the waist to the knee joint, and the width of the torso is equal to the sum of two heads (also in width).
However, be extremely careful at this stage, because the soldier does not stand at full height (as, for example, in one of our lessons), but takes a position immediately before the shot - he leans on his knee and takes aim.
Pay attention to the features - the arms seem too short, but this is an illusion arising from their folded position and the lack of volume at this stage against the background of the head. By the way, the head should be pulled into the shoulders, that is, the neck will not be visible here - again, this visual effect arises due to the soldier’s non-standard “aiming” pose.
Step 2
Now let's work on it a little top part our drawing. Let's draw a helmet line at the top of the head, mark the remaining lower part with two lines - a vertical one, which will indicate facial symmetry (note that it is slightly beveled to convey the tilt of the head) and the line of the eyes perpendicular to it.
Let's also draw part of the silhouette of the helmet and outline the weapon in the soldier's hands (the butt should cover the lower part of the face). Let's complete the stage by drawing rectangular fists.
Step 3
Let's add volume to the arms and upper torso. In fact, at this stage we will only outline the previously outlined lines. We will not draw the muscles here, since the soldier’s clothing is not tight-fitting.
Step 4
Now let's do the same operation with the lower part of the body. This will be much easier to do if you imagine parts of the body in the form of figures - the belt and groin area in the form of a triangle, legs - in the form of cylinders, knee joints in the form of a circle and a flattened oval. Again, nothing complicated, since we are not required to anatomically draw muscles and tendons.
Step 5
“Volume stickman”, that is, the silhouette of the soldier is ready, you can start drawing it. If you doubt the accuracy of the soldier’s position or the proportions of his body, hold the sketch of this stage to the mirror and look at the reflection - all errors in it will be very striking and noticeable.
And now, in fact, we continue: erase the extra guide lines from the helmet and outline its outline, also draw a strap on the soldier’s cheekbone. Then draw the eyes - one of them should be squinted.
Overall plan will be something like this:
Step 6
Usually we draw and detail drawings always from top to bottom, that is, in the direction from head to feet. And this lesson will not be an exception, therefore, we continue to detail our soldier.
Let's work on the jacket. Let's draw the sleeves, outline the folds of the fabric and cuffs. Then we will designate a belt that goes diagonally across the entire torso, a collar and strokes that will later become large pockets located on the chest.
The palms are the most mobile part of the body, so drawing them is what causes greatest number difficulties. To do this, we decided to make a couple of close-ups:
Actually, drawing the palms here is not particularly difficult, you just need to correctly convey their position and how they hold the weapon.
By the way, don’t forget to draw the weapon itself, namely the legendary Mosin rifle. The general plan is this:
Step 7
Let's go lower and draw the lower part of the soldier's torso and legs. First, let's draw the belt and side pockets, and then the bag and the loose lower part of the jacket (pay attention to the smooth bend of the line of the jacket in the area of the leg closest to us, it must be marked, it emphasizes the pose).
Next are the legs. Let's erase the extra guide lines, outline the contours, giving the legs a "baggy" look - that is, we make the contour itself slightly wavy and apply folds to the fabric. Yes, such a moment - the legs should turn out to be quite voluminous, again in order to emphasize the loose fit of the pants.
Step 8
Great, already very close to what we need. Now let's complete the final drawing of the torso and legs of our soldier. At this stage, we will outline and detail the warrior’s left hand and the edge of the rifle butt.
Look carefully at our sample and try to repeat all our steps in your drawing - be sure to draw such, at first glance, inconspicuous details as a patch on the elbow, cuff edging, buttons and folds. Draw the knuckles on the outside of the hand.
Step 9
Now let's repeat the same operation, but on the other hand, to the right of us. Here, unlike the previous stage, the fingernails are visible and we will need to mark them. Also outline the strokes of the phalanges of the fingers, but otherwise everything is the same - cuffs with hems, buttons, patch in the elbow area and folds.
Step 10
Let's draw the Mosin rifle. Don't forget that most of the barrel parts of this weapon were made of wood, to visually represent this material, draw a few lines along the barrel at the front of it. Also mark short horizontal lines running across the barrel - the first of them is located next to the front sight, and the last one is in the area of the hand on our right hand. Draw the sight, trigger and belt (note the belt buckles and its upside down position).
Step 11
We detail the torso. Draw the stripes on the collar, the horizontal line of the fastener and the pockets. Pay attention to the hem that is located along the edges of the pockets and the folds coming from the belt. Don't forget to also edge the bag's strap and draw a buckle.
Step 12
Let's draw the legs, starting with the one to the left of us. Outline it, keeping the previously outlined wavy contour, mark the line of the fly on the pants, mark a rectangle in the knee area and draw a shoe with a thick, rough sole. Apply several short folds to the boot material.
Step 13
Now let's detail the other leg. Edge it, mark the folds, draw stripes of fabric in the shin area. Draw the thick sole of the shoe, indicate the lacing and a couple of strokes on the material of the shoe, which will indicate folds.
Step 14
Looks good, doesn't it? Let's now work with the shadows. First, let's put a shadow on our soldier's helmet. Before starting work, do not forget to look at the 6th stage of the lesson, dedicated to - firstly, the structure of a realistic shadow is described there, and secondly, the shadow on the grape brush, in terms of the level of distraction, is very reminiscent of the shadow that lies on the soldier’s helmet from this lesson.
Before applying shadows, determine the location of the light source - our light falls on the soldier from the front, the source is located approximately at the height of his height, and since the soldier is slightly turned to the right of us, we will shade the side to our left.
We will apply the shadow on the helmet with light but frequent cross-hatching, achieving the density we need by adjusting the pressure on the pencil and selecting the optimal number of layers of crossed hatching. Don't forget to mark the strip of reflex light that is located along the edges of the helmet.
Step 15
Let's apply a shadow to our left hand. Please note that almost every fold casts a light shadow, and in the area of the trapezius and deltoid muscles the shadow is especially thick.
Step 16
Light cross-hatching will indicate the shadows on the body, increasing the number of layers in the most densely shaded areas.
Step 17
In conclusion, I would like to show you one video, a quote from which we used at the beginning of our lesson. This impressive video sequence is created from footage from the iconic Soviet film"Officers", and the music is written talented composer Evgeniy Agranovich.
Actually, all that remains is to apply a very light shadow to the soldier’s legs and our drawing is ready.
This was a lesson about that from the Drawingforall website, all the best to you, don’t forget your grandparents - your attention is incredibly important to them. Come to us for new lessons and write in the comments your suggestions regarding their topics. Happy upcoming holiday everyone!
Military pencil drawings can be created step by step even for young children. There are a lot of lessons and instructions on the Internet, as well as pictures for sketching, which allow you to independently transfer various types of military equipment onto paper.
Drawing on military theme Boys will enjoy drawing with a pencil, but such pictures can also be created by girls, for example, on the eve of a big holiday on May 9 or February 23. On Victory Day, the drawing will be an excellent gift for veterans or relatives who served in the army.
Military aircraft pencil drawing
A military aircraft can simple drawing pencil to look interesting without coloring with paints or colored pencils. First, you should check if you have the tools necessary to create an art project:
- ruler;
- pencil;
- blank sheet of paper;
- eraser.
If possible, choose hard and soft pencils, which are convenient for making auxiliary lines or drawing the main ones. Next simple instructions will allow little artists to create their own beautiful military aircraft on paper.
- We create the main lines that serve as the basis for placing the plane on the leaf. Using a ruler, draw a long line, which we tilt down slightly. The second will intersect the first, you need to lead it from the lower left corner of the leaf to the upper right, this is the basis for the wings and tail. To make the plane's tail realistic, add a small short line on the first main one, it should be perpendicular.
- If the lines are not a good enough guide for drawing the correct shape of the plane, we create additional points that serve as the edges of the nose, tail and wings of the object. It is recommended to start from the far right point, where the nose will be located.
- We draw the airplane cabin with smooth lines. Movements should be smooth; you should not press the pencil on the paper. The cockpit lines should taper slightly as you approach the leftmost point, where the tail of the aircraft is located.
- From the main lines of the cockpit, focusing on the second auxiliary lines with the same soft and smooth movements, we draw the wings of the aircraft.
- An important step that completes the base is drawing the tail. Military aircraft may have a tail different shapes, with additional elements, so it is advisable to look at the example drawing and ask the child to copy the finished form.
- The last step is adding important elements to bring the plane to life. A child can add various emblems to the aircraft body; he cannot do without drawing the front glass and side windows.
- After the lines are drawn, using an eraser, auxiliary lines and points are removed, unnecessary strokes that were the basis of the sketch.
All pencil drawings of military equipment are created on the following basis: auxiliary lines intersecting at in the right places, as a guide for creating basic contours.
Warship pencil drawing
Military pencil drawings allow a child not only to understand the basics of creating complex drawings, but also to study the structure of various vehicles. Many children enjoy creating a warship and a pencil drawing that requires following instructions.
Unlike the previous picture, children begin art project from drawing the sea waves, which are located at the bottom of the leaf. Waves are curved lines that young artists can draw.
On the waves you need to place one horizontal line without tilting. A ruler will come to the rescue with this. The length of the main horizontal line should be of average length, taking into account the fact that additional lines will diverge to the sides, continuing the base of the ship's hull; they are made using a ruler. To do this, the ruler is placed slightly at an angle towards the outer sides of the leaf. You can connect these two lines with one solid line. The ship's base is ready.
Next, you should focus on the example picture, from which the cabin compartments and deck details are copied. The guns must be drawn, and the main “highlight” of such a creation will be the ship’s flag. An important detail of the drawing. Finally, several curved wave lines are added around the ship to create the illusion of military transport moving.
Such military pencil drawings for children may seem simple at first glance, but with the help of shading they decorate the picture, and if desired, they add a little color with the help of paints.
Soldier drawing
A pencil drawing of a military soldier can be done by small children. The main thing is to first practice repeating basic geometric shapes and learn how to make neat lines.
As in the case of drawing a military airplane with a pencil for children, it is worth creating several auxiliary lines with which the proportions of the soldier’s body will be correct.
- First, let's work on the markup. The frame of the drawing is the basis of the soldier’s body. On the vertical line at the top we draw an oval, which serves as the base for the head. Just below he draws two trapezoids - the base of the body. From the trapezoid we make lines for the arms and lines below for the legs. Important point– the drawing is made larger in order to clearly display all the details.
- In the oval area, for accuracy, you can create auxiliary lines with thin strokes: one horizontally, just above the center of the oval, the second vertical, clearly in the center, crossing the area of the soldier’s future face. From the oval on the sides we draw ears with neat curved lines. Along the auxiliary horizontal line we add eyes and exactly above them two souls of eyebrows. In the lower part there will be a nose, and between the created details of the face. You can add bangs on top of the oval.
- Let's draw the cap. If it is difficult to replicate its shape, you can settle on a small triangle that “sits” exactly on top of the oval.
- From the oval down to the trapezoids with smooth lines.
- From the neck we move on to drawing the shape of the body, making the trapezoid less angular. At this stage, you can immediately work on such details as a collar, other clothing items in the form of a belt and shoulder straps.
- Don't forget about pockets, buttons and a star on the strap.
- The lower part is trousers. Kids should help them with them, because not all little artists will be able to repeat the lines of the folds of trousers. We finish this part with boots.
- Step by step, slowly, we draw the arms and sleeves of the uniform, from which the soldier’s hands can be seen. It is not necessary to draw the hands in detail. Kids can stop at the schematic image.
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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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. In the hands of a person - military equipment, 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 to 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. On the face - thick beard. 
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.
