From the title it is already clear what we will talk about. We will study how to draw war with a pencil step by step. It won't be star Wars and Darth Vader and not even a shooter game, but a real war! Three soldiers in a trench, with piles of military equipment. In order to draw all this, you will need a lot of knowledge about military affairs. You can, of course, sit down to play WoT, but in the end you won’t draw anything. Who doesn’t know this is such a super action game with the participation of tanks, which has gathered a huge number of gamers in our country. By the way, the yellow-faced Chinese are no less interested in this. It seems that half of their population goes in for sports, judging by the number of Olympic medals in 2012, but the second is mired in the whirlpool of online games. For the fact that half of our population has been staring at the LCD monitor for two years now, at the same time managing to stain the gaming mouse with greasy fingers from dinner and pour coffee on the keyboard... let’s all say “Thank you” to Wargaming! Although God bless him. Now let's take a break from tanks and try to draw military actions with the participation of real ones. There are five steps ahead.

How to draw a war with a pencil step by step

Step one First, let's outline the people in motion. Head, position of the torso, arms, legs.
Step two Now let's think about what will be around our soldiers: this is a fence, stones, logs. Let's show their outlines.
Step three Let's dress our combatants: helmet, pants, boots. Let's equip one of them with a bag. Let’s draw the face profile of the one closest to us. We will surround the fence with barbed wire.
Step Four Let's add details: barbs on the wire, belts on people's clothes, a spatula, etc.
Step five Let's do the shading. There are darker areas on the clothing at the folds. Let's darken the areas on the pillars. Well, here are the soldiers against the backdrop of a military and completely unpicturesque landscape.
See similar military equipment drawing lessons.

In this lesson we will look at how to draw the Great Patriotic War (WWII) of 1941-1945 with a pencil step by step. This is the war of the USSR against Germany and its allies. The Second One World War began on September 1, 1939, if you are interested in how it all began and what were the prerequisites for development, then read the article on Wikipedia. But let's start drawing.

Draw a horizon - a horizontal line, it is located approximately 1/3 of the top of the sheet. Draw a country road below and place three soldiers, the further away, the smaller the scale. Click on the picture to enlarge.

We draw houses and hills on the horizon, then the farthest soldier, he should not be big. Click on the image to see the details.

We draw the second one with a weapon behind a hillock, its head and body are slightly larger than the previous one, about 1.5 times.

Draw a soldier with a weapon in the foreground.

Apply dark areas on the bodies of the soldiers and on the weapons, draw a little grass.

Use strokes to define the grass, slopes and field.

Now, using a lighter tone, we imitate the smoke from the fires, we shade the steppe part, and in the foreground we highlight the bumpiness of the hillock and trench. This is how you can draw it.

The Great Patriotic War is a page in our history that cannot be ignored. For a peaceful sky, for bread on the table, we are indebted to our grandfathers and great-grandfathers, who, without sparing their lives, fought against a fierce enemy for the sake of a happy future for their children.

As a sign of eternal memory and respect in our country, it is customary to give veterans flowers and themed cards made by small children's hands. Such masterpieces are worth more than any awards, because they testify that even children know and are proud of the exploits of their ancestors. Today we will tell you how and what kind of drawings for children about war you can draw on the eve of a great holiday or simply to consolidate the knowledge gained from a history lesson.

So, we bring to your attention a master class on how to draw step by step Patriotic War for children with a pencil.

Example 1

Boys always associate war with military equipment and aviation. Tanks, helicopters, planes, different weapons- these are all those achievements of scientific progress, without which victory would have come to us at an even greater cost. Therefore, we will begin our first lesson, dedicated to drawings about the war (1941-1945) for children, with detailed description how to draw a tank step by step.

First of all, let's prepare everything you need: pencils and colored pencils, an eraser and Blank sheet paper

Continuing to improve our skills, let's draw a military aircraft:

Example 2

Of course, little princesses may not like drawing military equipment. Therefore, we have prepared separate drawings for them that can be used as a greeting card:

As you can see, draw these simple pictures It’s not at all difficult for a child to talk about war, the main thing is to show a little imagination and patience.

Military pencil drawings can be created step by step even for young children. There are a lot of lessons and instructions on the Internet, as well as pictures for sketching, which allow you to independently transfer various types of military equipment onto paper.

Drawing on military theme Boys will enjoy drawing with a pencil, but such pictures can also be created by girls, for example, on the eve of a big holiday on May 9 or February 23. On Victory Day, the drawing will be an excellent gift for veterans or relatives who served in the army.

Military aircraft pencil drawing

A military aircraft can simple drawing pencil to look interesting without coloring with paints or colored pencils. First, you should check if you have the tools necessary to create an art project:

• ruler;
• pencil;
• blank sheet of paper;
• eraser.

If possible, choose hard and soft pencils, which are convenient for making auxiliary lines or drawing the main ones. Next simple instructions will allow little artists to create their own beautiful military aircraft on paper.

1. We create the main lines that serve as the basis for placing the plane on the leaf. Using a ruler, draw a long line, which we tilt down slightly. The second will intersect the first, you need to lead it from the lower left corner of the leaf to the upper right, this is the basis for the wings and tail. To make the plane's tail realistic, add a small short line on the first main one, it should be perpendicular.
2. If the lines are not a good enough guide for drawing correct form airplane, we create additional points that serve as the edges of the nose, tail and wings of the object. It is recommended to start from the far right point, where the nose will be located.
3. We draw the airplane cabin with smooth lines. Movements should be smooth; you should not press the pencil on the paper. The cockpit lines should taper slightly as you approach the leftmost point, where the tail of the aircraft is located.
4. From the main lines of the cockpit, focusing on the second auxiliary lines with the same soft and smooth movements, we draw the wings of the aircraft.
5. An important step that completes the base is drawing the tail. Military aircraft may have a tail different shapes, with additional elements, so it is advisable to look at the example drawing and ask the child to copy the finished form.
6. The last step is adding important elements to bring the plane to life. A child can add various emblems to the aircraft body; he cannot do without drawing the front glass and side windows.
7. After the lines are drawn, using an eraser, auxiliary lines and points are removed, unnecessary strokes that were the basis of the sketch.

All drawings of military equipment in pencil are created on this basis: auxiliary lines intersecting in the right places, as a guide for creating basic contours.

Warship pencil drawing

Military pencil drawings allow a child not only to understand the basics of creating complex drawings, but also to study the structure of various vehicles. Many children enjoy creating a warship and a pencil drawing that requires following instructions.

Unlike the previous drawing, children begin the art project by drawing the waves of the sea, which are located at the bottom of the paper. Waves are curved lines that young artists can draw.

On the waves you need to place one horizontal line without tilting. A ruler will come to the rescue with this. The length of the main horizontal line should be of medium length, taking into account the fact that the sides will diverge additional lines, continuing the base of the ship's hull, they are made using a ruler. To do this, the ruler is placed slightly at an angle towards the outer sides of the leaf. You can connect these two lines with one solid line. The ship's base is ready.

Next, you should focus on the example picture, from which the cabin compartments and deck details are copied. IN mandatory the guns are drawn, and the main “highlight” of such a creation will be the ship’s flag. An important detail of the drawing. Finally, several curved wave lines are added around the ship to create the illusion of military transport moving.

Such military pencil drawings for children may seem simple at first glance, but with the help of shading they decorate the picture, and if desired, they add a little color with the help of paints.

Soldier drawing

A pencil drawing of a military soldier can be made by small children. The main thing is to first practice repeating basic geometric shapes and learn how to make neat lines.
As in the case of drawing a military airplane with a pencil for children, it is worth creating several auxiliary lines with which the proportions of the soldier’s body will be correct.

1. First, let's work on the markup. The frame of the drawing is the basis of the soldier’s body. On the vertical line at the top we draw an oval, which serves as the base for the head. Just below he draws two trapezoids - the base of the body. From the trapezoid we make lines for the arms and lines below for the legs. Important point– the drawing is made larger in order to clearly display all the details.
2. In the oval area, for accuracy, you can create auxiliary lines with thin strokes: one horizontally, just above the center of the oval, the second vertical, clearly in the center, crossing the area of ​​the soldier’s future face. From the oval on the sides we draw ears with neat curved lines. Along the auxiliary horizontal line we add eyes and exactly above them two souls of eyebrows. In the lower part there will be a nose, and between the created details of the face. You can add bangs on top of the oval.
3. Let's draw the cap. If it is difficult to replicate its shape, you can settle on a small triangle that “sits” exactly on top of the oval.
4. From the oval down to the trapezoids with smooth lines.
5. From the neck we move on to drawing the shape of the body, making the trapezoid less angular. At this stage, you can immediately work on such details as a collar, other clothing items in the form of a belt and shoulder straps.
6. Don't forget about pockets, buttons and a star on the strap.
7. The lower part is trousers. Kids should help with them, because not all little artists will be able to repeat the lines of the folds of trousers. We finish this part with boots.
8. Step by step, slowly, we draw the arms and sleeves of the uniform, from which the soldier’s hands can be seen. It is not necessary to draw the hands in detail. Kids can stop at the schematic image.
