Drawing a cool Stegosaurus in 9 steps

Animals
Hi little artist! Today we are going back to the time of the dinosaurs. The Stegosaurus is a very special dino with large plates on its back. Grab your pencil, because we are going to bring this giant to life step by step!
1
Drawing of a large oval for the body and a small circle for the head of a dino.
Start with a large horizontal oval for the body and a very small circle for the head.
2
The head and body are connected with a neck and a long tail line is drawn.
Connect the head and the body with two curved lines for the neck and draw a long line for the tail.
3
Guide lines for the four legs and the mouth of the stegosaurus.
Draw four straight lines under the body where the legs should go and a short dash for the mouth.
4
The legs of the dino take shape with thick ovals and the snout becomes clearer.
Make the legs thicker by drawing ovals around the lines and give the mouth a solid shape.
5
The legs and the thick tail of the stegosaurus are now clearly visible.
Now draw the actual shapes of the legs with large feet and make the tail nice and thick.
6
Drawing of spikes on the tail and the first diamond-shaped plates on the back.
Place small triangles on the tail for the spikes and start with the first plates on the back.
7
Two rows of large diamond-shaped plates on the back of the dinosaur.
Draw a second row of large diamond-shaped plates on the back so he looks truly dangerous.
8
Details such as the eye, nose, and toes of the stegosaurus have been added.
Give the dino an eye, a nostril, and draw small toes at the bottom of the legs.
9
The finished drawing of a stegosaurus without guide lines.
Erase the guide lines and trace the outer lines extra thick for a beautiful result!
