Drawing is a simple matter. You can draw something in your own way, as you imagine. But sometimes you may need to draw a believable image. Next, consider how to draw a crane as realistic as possible.
Beginning of work
In order to draw something, you will need paper, an eraser, pencils, paints and other tools.
You can use special programs ("Photoshop", "Paint" and so on) for drawing. It’s much more interesting to do it yourself.
To understand how to draw a crane, you need to decide how it will look. Plan its dimensions, come up with a base, valve shape, thickness, etc.
Typically, the base is a sink to which the faucet is attached using a metal nut, or a wall.
How to draw a water tap
The first step is to draw the crane itself. With a pencil, draw two parallel lines (if the base is sink, then vertical, if the wall - then horizontal). The length of the lines can be different (about twenty centimeters). The contour forms a kind of pipe.
Further, the lines are symmetrically rounded down. Water will flow from there.
The next step is to draw a valve. The mixer can be either single-valve or two-valve. It is absolutely necessary to draw all the nuts and washers, the sleeve and the glands that connect the pipe to the valve and the flywheel. These elements are round, and displaying them is not difficult.
A two-valve tap is drawn in the same way as a single-valve tap, only it will be necessary to draw an additional element symmetrical to the first.
To make the crane look real, you need to draw a realistic flywheel. This is such a mechanism, when you turn it, water flows from the water pipe.
The flywheel can also be different: round with branches, two-sided, four-sided and so on. To draw the first type, you need to make a circle with several branches to the center.
Quadrilateral and bilateral are made very simply. A ball is made in the middle of the flywheel, from which small segments are drawn in two or four sides.
But there is also a lever type mixer. In this case, you do not need to draw a valve with a flywheel. Using two rounded lines, a lever is drawn.
After the contour of the crane has been fully formed, it needs to be decorated. Depending on the material, the colors will be different. The plastic tap needs to be painted white. And iron - gray or yellow.
Do not forget about the glare of lighting. They can be emphasized with strokes of white paint.
The middle of the flywheel is usually painted with blue or red paint, which will indicate from which valve cold or hot water will go, respectively (this applies to a two-valve tap).
We looked at how to draw a crane easily and simply. But sometimes you need to draw it with pouring water. Consider this option.
How to draw a faucet with water? It is very easy. Already to the finished water tap you need to add droplets or a trickle of liquid.
The droplets are displayed easily: a semicircle is made, the two ends of which are connected at the bottom at one point. A trickle is drawn vertical lines. The most important thing is their proper coloring. You can choose the blue color (imitating water) or for realism - black-gray-white lines (after all, the water is clear).
Afterword
Having learned how to draw a crane, you can make other objects. After all, as they say, in order to learn how to draw beautifully, you need to go from simple to complex. This will help to understand the color perception of objects, their shape and properties.
