Have you ever tried to draw a dragon and struggled with capturing its proportions and posture? This class will guide you through creating a dragon taking flight in a step-by-step process. Dragons are one of the most interesting fantastical creatures to draw because they’re so dynamic! By the end of this course, you’ll have completed a cartoon style dragon that will help you with all future fantasy drawings!

By the end of this course, you will know how to:

Draw a dragon
Capture proper proportions
Break down a dragon in simple shapes
Use a monochromatic colour scheme
Explore value through shadows and highlights

Materials:

My demo is drawn digitally using Medibang Paint Pro, but you may use any medium
If you're working traditionally, I recommend pencil, fineliner and coloured pencils
To learn how to use digital techniques, see our lesson: Intro to Digital Art in MediBang
