How to Draw a Megalodon
- Prepare the base.
Determine the contours of the future drawing. First draw a circle to represent the head and then draw the contours of the rest of the body with smooth lines.
- Depict the front of the head.
The fish raised its head up, so the front of the muzzle is located above everything and has a pointed shape. Draw the eye and the mouth.
- Add the mouth.
With the help of smooth curved lines draw the outline of the mouth, the outline of the lower jaw and then successively add the lot of pointed teeth of different sizes.
- Make the outline of the body clearer.
Focus on the auxiliary lines and trace the body of the fish along the contour, giving it the desired shape.
- Draw the fins and tail.
Sketch out the large and small fins with smooth lines. Draw the tail, which is in two parts.
- Add the gill slits and detail the coloration.
Below the head, add five gill slits and with a thin, uneven line, outline the counter where the body color will differ.
- Correct inaccuracies.
Look carefully at your drawing and if you notice inaccuracies, then immediately correct them. Remove the extra lines.
- Color the drawing.
To paint the body of the fish, you will need dark blue and gray. Color the eye black and color the mouth red. Add the shadows and highlights.
