Step-By-Step Images and Instructions
1.
Use a black pen to draw two small, curved lines towards the bottom of your page. Connect these at the end with a short line.
2.
Bring a curved line across to the left, and add a long, thin triangle to the top of this.
3.
Take the line to a point, and then bring a lineup and across, flicking this up slightly at the top.
4.
Now, return to the top line. Add a “point” to the left of this, and then bring a lineup, and curve it across towards the left side of the page.
5.
Add a small point to the end of this, and then three slightly curved points below.
6.
From the bottom point, bring the line across, add a small “bump”, and then curve it up and across to the right. Take the line down, across, and up to complete a solid outline, and then add a line to the right of the “points”, across and down. Bring another line up beside this, and take this across and up.
7.
Add a curved line all across the bottom of the shapes…
8.
And then use a black pen to add color to the central section at the back, the front, and the front of the curved wing.
9.
Grab a gray pen, and use this to shade the rest of the top area…
10.
And then use an orange pen for the bottom of the beak at the front.
11.
Now, use a yellow pen to fill in the niche on the top of the neck.
12.
Use a blue pencil to bring a curved line down from the bottom of the chest, and then a lighter blue pencil to draw a long, curved shape below this – fill in the curved shape with the blue pencil.
13.
Use a dark blue pencil to add a “point” shape to the back of the tummy, with a curved line behind. Then, use the blue pencil to shade the rest of the page outside of these shapes.
14.
Grab a gray pen, and shade a wavy line just below the tummy…
15.
And then use a black pen to add another wavy line just in front of this.
And there we have it – a penguin enjoying a cool, refreshing dive through crystal waters – what could be better than that?
