Drawing a Sea Turtle: Dive into the Deep Sea!

Animals
Hi little artist! Today we are going to draw a beautiful sea turtle swimming through the ocean. Using simple shapes like circles and lines, you'll conjure a turtle onto your paper in no time. Will you join me?
1
A small oval with a vertical line through it as the base for the head.
Draw a small oval for the head and put a guide line in the middle.
2
A large curved line indicating the shape of the shell and the neck.
Make a large arch above the head for the top of the shell and draw the neck.
3
Simple lines marking the position of the four legs or flippers.
Place a few diagonal guide lines where the flippers will be later.
4
The outlines of the front legs and a small circle for the eye.
Now draw the rounded shapes of the large front flippers and give the head a little eye.
5
Details of the mouth and an extra line along the bottom of the shell.
Make the turtle's snout a bit more pointed and draw the edge of the shell.
6
The back legs and a refined shape of the large swimming flipper at the front.
Draw the back flippers and refine the shape of the large front flipper.
7
The shell gets a double edge for more depth and sturdiness.
Give the shell a nice thick edge and draw small lines for the details.
8
Patterns of squares on the shell and dots on the turtle's legs.
Now draw spots on the flippers and small sections on the large shell.
9
The finished sea turtle with sharp lines and small round bubbles around it.
Make the lines of your sea turtle darker and draw some air bubbles in the water.
