Kort samengevat
In this drawing lesson, you will learn how to draw an octopus with a large round head and squiggly tentacles. We'll finish with funny suction cups and air bubbles for a real underwater effect.
Stappen
Draw a large egg shape for the octopus's head and place a guide line in the middle.
Draw small circles under the head to determine where the eight arms will begin.
Draw long, wavy lines outward from the circles for the shape of the tentacles.
Make the arms thicker by drawing a second line around the wavy lines and sketch the eyes.
Give the eyes more detail with pupils and draw guide lines on the arms for the suction cups.
Draw small circles along the back tentacles to create the first suction cups.
Now you can draw small suction cups on all the other arms for a real water effect.
Make the outlines of the octopus a bit darker and add cheerful air bubbles in the water.
Erase the guide lines and color your octopus with your favorite colors!
