How to Draw a Betta Fish

In this drawing guide, we will tell you how to draw a Betta Fish. This will be a pretty simple tutorial. We did our best for you to create very cool art.

Step 1

Firstly, we draw an elongated oval shape. This shape is located on the left side of the paper sheet. Do not try to make this oval perfectly straight and symmetrical.

Step 2

Add the front part of our fish, which looks like a small cone with a smooth taper. The tail begins on the back of the body. So, with the help of smooth lines, we outline the outlines of a wide plate that will become the base of the tail.

Step 3

Draw the outlines of a wide, flat tail. As you can see, it looks like two smooth lines forming an obtuse angle. These lines are connected using a long, wavy line.

Step 4

Several steps in this guide will focus on drawing fins. These are very important organs that the fish uses as a rudder to correct the direction of movement.  Let’s sketch the rough outlines of the top fin in this step.

Step 5

So in this step, we will draw a large fin that is located on the lower part of the body of our fish. The bottom edge of the fin should have a slight slope as in our sample.

Step 6

If you are bored with drawing fins, we can please you. We are already finishing. This is the last pair of fins that are located in the lower head region.

Step 7

Fish fins are highly elastic organs. As I said, fins are used to correct movement, which means that these must be very mobile organs. So in this step, we will draw long thin segments that form the fins.

Step 8

So we continue our guide on how to draw a Betta Fish. Add small details to the head of our fish. This is a round eye, a small line in the form of a mouth, and a branchial slit.

Step 9

It is not necessary to draw the scales of our fish completely. It will be great if you sketch out the scales using several oblique lines that intersect and form rhombuses.

Step 10

We always highlight a special stage so that you can evaluate your art, find all the errors, and correct these mistakes with the eraser. Let’s do this because the next step is to work with colors.

Step 11

So we are almost done with this tutorial. We will now work with flowers. We will use a light blue color and a darker shade of the same color to create the shadows.

So we did a great job. I hope that our guide on how to draw a Betta Fish was useful to you. We are waiting for your feedback and your questions!
