“Do not reinvent the wheel,” - such a phrase can often be heard from the lips of our compatriots. It means that everything was invented before us, and do not complicate anything. Of course, we will not do this, as well as engage in the invention of a bicycle. Instead, we will draw it.
Immediately worth a warning, this task is not easy. Few can immediately answer how to draw a bicycle in stages, because for this you need to know its structure. We will depict the usual two-wheeled version, familiar to any eye. So, let's move on to drawing
How to draw a bicycle with a pencil? First step
The first moment in building the future image is preparatory. Before you draw a bike, you need to take everything you need. In our case, it will be paper, pencil, eraser, as well as a ruler and compass. Then we should strain our memory and mentally imagine what we plan to draw, or rather, the components of the future image. In the case of a bicycle, it is necessary to recreate in the imagination its frame, steering wheel, seats, wheels. And it’s with the latter that we will begin the immediate story of how to draw a bicycle. They have two ordinary vehicles, they are about the same size and are located on the same line.
Therefore, we pick up a pencil, a compass, draw two equal circles, which will become the wheels of our bicycle. Now we make the compass solution a couple of millimeters smaller, and in the same places we draw again - this time the tires. We paint them evenly with a pencil or depict the relief of the tread - as desired. Now, with the same compass, draw small circles at the starting points - the axis of our bicycle.
Second phase
After this, the second stage of drawing begins. We have to depict the body, namely the frame and steering wheel. And for a start, we connect the axles of both wheels with a line. We make it the base of the trapezoid, which will represent the frame of the bicycle, and draw a figure with a pencil.
Next, we recall how the support frame should go. From the center of the line connecting the axes, draw a segment to the upper third of the side. From it, the steering wheel will go from above, which at this stage can also be depicted as a hook. But the seat holder for us will come from the same point as the support frame at the base, but go in the opposite direction. To do this, draw a line from the bottom to the upper right corner of our trapezoid, but do not stop, but extend it a little further, because in bicycles the seat is not located on the frame itself, but a little higher, above it.
The left part of the trapezoid base can now be erased - it is not needed in the construction of our bicycle. At this point the second stage is completed, and we can only correct the errors with the eraser and paint over our frame.
Third stage
Now we move on to the next part of the master class. The third stage is already drawing details. Around the axis of the rear wheel, we depict a chain that stretches to the place where the pedals are located - the point where the support frame and the seat holder originate from. And then on top we depict pedals. Do not forget that if one is directed up, the second should be down.
The angle between the pedals is always 180 degrees, that is, they are located on one straight line. Now, from the end point of the support frame to the steering wheel, we draw
hand brakes in the form of a thinner curved line
, and on the edges of the steering wheel we designate handles. Well and the last draw the seat of our bike. Also, for beauty, you can draw spokes in each wheel.
Conclusion
We hope you now understand how to draw a bike. And you can handle this. Remember that drawing a bicycle in its execution is closer to drawing, but it should be so with a work of engineering. After all, you depict it as similar to the original as possible. Well, now you can safely tell your friends how to draw a bicycle, because you already know all the subtleties of this process.
