How to draw a miracle in stages

Miracle Yudo is a character in Russian fairy tales, known to many. But who really imagines what it looks like? In Russian folk tales, Wonder Yudo is a separate species of dragons with a large number of heads. The most famous of them is the Serpent Gorynych. The harm from these monsters, according to myths, is that they burn villages and fields. The fire-breathing hydra is who it is. How to draw miracle judo in stages with a pencil can be read below.

The basis

To begin with, it is worth determining the position of the creature in space, posture and, possibly, movement. At the moment, it is a flying kite with three heads, aggressive and angry. Once the idea is clear, you can get down to business. All you need is a simple pencil, an eraser and paper.

What the circuit consists of

As a basis we take balls and lines. It is enough to distribute them so that the key moments of the image fall under the scheme. Instead of heads, knees and folds of wings, you need to substitute ellipses and circles. The joints and limbs will be lines. The scheme of how to draw a miracle judo is ready.

Drawing the basics to a recognizable character

More difficult. It is necessary to make a simplified, but already recognizable image from the circuit. It will require attention to detail, but this is not the most painstaking process.

  1. Start with the goals. We divide them visually into two parts, the half that is closer to the neck will be larger, the remaining - the jaw and nose. Do not forget about the eyes. Since the aggressive character was chosen with a pencil when plotting to draw miracle-yudo, the whole appearance should talk about it. The eyes need to be narrowed, the pupil should look like a dot or a vertical strip - everything is as narrow as possible. So, visually the creature will become angrier. It remains to add sharp teeth and a forked tongue - the head is almost ready.
  2. We move on. Neck - should not be too thick or thin, but it is desirable that it be powerful, you can draw muscles, showing the strength of the creature. It is worth trying to draw large scales or horn plates on the neck of a monster, so it will become more colorful and closer to the dragons. The tail, like the neck, should show power.
  3. The body of the dragon has a shape closer to the triangle - a wide chest and a narrow pelvis, all this can be reflected in the diagram with ellipses. When drawing large details, you need to focus on the horny plates - they will occupy most of these parts of the body.
  4. We make the lower legs “pumped up” so that muscles can be seen there, the scales on them are small, but we don’t remember about it yet. The general structure of the lower extremities can be taken any, but as a lizard, it is better not to draw hooves. The claws should be sharp, there are at least 3 of them, and it is better to draw a fourth on the heel, if it is visible.
  5. Wings for any dragons are characteristic - like a bat, which means you need to draw membranes and bones. It should be borne in mind that it is easy to draw membranes only in a tense state. When folded or half-lowered, they more resemble heavy fabric, which means - you need to draw folds.

When the overall image is ready, you can proceed to the fine details and elaboration of the background. This is where all the patience that the artist only has is needed. Without trifles, the image will seem unfinished.

Average result

Small parts

Like it or not, a masterpiece will be ready only when there are any little things on it that make it unique. That is, it’s easy to draw a miracle, but to make an image complete is difficult. In this figure, the dragon will have a mane and horns, as well as some little things, such as an additional row of small scales that set off the horn plates, or horns on the nose and “arrows” on the tail. Without such nuances in any way.

Penultimate stage

You can write about how to draw a miracle judo, especially given the specifics of the character. You can try on the basis of different poses and change the appearance, change the character's character and, in the end, play with color. All this is interesting and exciting for any artist.
