Volcanoe Drawing Step by Step Tutorial
Step 1
The concept of drawing a mountain as intricate like Mount Everest seems like a daunting undertaking. When you break it down into steps it’s actually quite easy. Utilize a 2H or stiffer pencil to sketch basic guidelines. The first step is to create a vertical line on the lower portion of the page. This is our horizon. Even though we don’t need it to determine the vanishing points, it’s good to be able to use it as a reference. Above the horizontal line, draw a triangle mountain, which is protruding like a straight ledge across the right-hand edge of your page. The illustration we will draw is coming from the northern side of the mountain.
Step 2
After our guides are set We can draw the foreground terrain. It is best to begin on the ground, and then move towards the top of the mountain. The ground in the foreground should be rock and not covered in snow. Two ramps are that slope down towards central part of our page. The foreground terrain shouldn’t extend past the horizontal line.
Step 3
Alongside these small hills, you should also find rugged terrain, with small hills scattered throughout. Be sure that these hills don’t extend beyond the horizontal line. The hills shouldn’t go all to the left side of the page.
Step 4
Draw a gradient of a high grade on the left-hand edge of your page. This should have a straight line and then fall down the slopes we built in step 3. Draw some diagonal lines on either side that slope.
Step 5
After our foreground is finished Let’s begin working to work on Mount Everest itself. The bottom of the mountain includes a couple of smaller mountains that have been smashed into the mountain’s face. The first mountain should be drawn to that slope’s edge we traced in step 4. It must be sharp and have the form of an arc. The mountain is extremely rocky and sharp.
Step 6
Then create a few snowbanks on the right side of this mountain. Between these two snowbanks of round snow, you should draw a small area of rock.
Step 7
Over the snow bank is another mountain portion. This section must be rocky, with plenty of vertical, short lines running along the sides. The summit should not extend beyond the mountain guide that we prepared in step 1.
Step 8
Create more cliffs and massive rock to the left from the slope. Take note of how the right-hand side of the mountain is cut through a jagged line that indicates where the rock has broken as time passes.
Step 9
At the base of the hill, there ought to be slopes that gradually climb towards the shoreline of snow.
Step 10
We can now sketch the summit on the mountain. It must be very jagged and rocky. The top of the page has a pointed point at the center part of the page. The slope drops to the left side, where it comes into contact with a vertical piece of rock, before sloping downwards until it reaches the left-hand side of the webpage. To to the right of the top, there is the ledge that gradually falls, and ends right above the horizontal part of our guidelines.
Step 11
The right part of the mountain falls into a delicate descending diagonal. It requires it’s fair share massive rocks that line the top.
Step 12
Once the basic form of the mountain is sketched, return to the sharpened pencil to sketch cliffs, ledges and rock patterns throughout the ridge. The texture near the summit is mostly horizontal lines. There are some vertical slopes however, the vertical line is more prominent when we move down the edges of the mountains. There ought to be jagged, vertical horizontal lines on the right edge of the foothills.
Step 13
It is important to draw the edge of the snow line since the snow doesn’t reach all up towards the earth. The snow’s edge will rise up on the left of the page and lower in the center. It’s not a straight , solid line, but rather a thin line that is squiggly with distinct areas of snow.
Step 14
Mount Everest has a very high elevation and is frequently obscured by clouds. It isn’t a good idea to cover the drawing with clouds, so we’ll draw just some clouds that are that are floating beneath the summit of the mountain. This gives the viewer an idea of how high this mountain actually is.
Step 15
It is now recommended to draw a mark on the image. You can do this using India markers and ink as well as Micron markers. Be patient and make sure that you don’t accidentally write down any unneeded instructions. After the ink has dried you can erase the pencil marks using an eraser that has been kneaded.
Step 16
Let’s include a drop shadow in order to create more depth to the image. Create your lighting source. In this instance it’s on the left-hand right side. Dry brushes are great for shading mountains in the vicinity. Dry brush occurs when you dip your brush in the ink and then wipe it clean of the ink until the brush is dry. It can create incredible textures that aren’t possible in any other method. If you aren’t able to use dry brushes, you can try your best to shade the right-hand side of each area of rock.
Step 17
It’s that simple! If you’re required to correct your work then you can make them using the white color ink, or even opaque white paint. It is also possible to use it to highlight areas or it to add dimension to the areas that are shaded using Dry brush techniques again. This is drawing the most imposing ever mountain in the world: Mount Everest!
