(fast-version) How to Draw Sea Horse Step by Step Tutorial with Commentary

so first we draw a circle like this and this one would represent roughly just the head where the head is going to be and then right below it we'll draw a second circle that's slightly larger you can make yours it doesn't matter how many larp if you if you make your circle like a little bit smaller a little or a little bit more larger that's fine if there's no you know hard rule there's no wrong you cannot do no wrong basically well you can't do no wrong basically and lastly we do a third circle right here this represents where the tail is and you'll see how this comes into play and i'm going to make this now very light and this is all we need really to make this drawing look good and well to make john look correct right because we we don't let's let's let's hope we can make this one look good all right let me now now based on these circles i'm going to start at make the lines light uh heavier what am i saying lighter heavier and i know the mouse is going to come out from roughly around here and then roughly around here and then on top of the head i know it's a seahorse and this part you you can freehand and because there's no um you can basically you can make make a mistake and you still look good there's there's no need to make any guidelines just make a kind of join like this you can kind of finish the head roughly around here apologies for any mistake that i make oh and here if you want to even though i'm not sure if seahorse do have years i think they do but let's just add some year anyway so that's a year and here you have that finn right you have to thin so we're following the structure and the size of the initial structure circle which i made lighter so it's light gray and you can add an eye you can add around here you can make a little bit bigger or smaller and it's not going to be a big deal i'm going to add eyes with a slight spot right there that's because i feel like it if you want to you can add the eyelid with some eyelash even though it makes no sense why would they have eyelash but hey we can do whatever we can do whatever we want as artists and you can add the uh you know the mouth and the nose maybe a little smile that also doesn't make any sense as far as i know seahorse doesn't have um a nose and mouth like that but we're making a cartoon version so now we're gonna come to using the second circle so we're going to come to its neck comes down and now we're going to follow the second circle like like so right okay and we're going to use mostly the left side because the right side we're not going to need it as much for the for the left side i want to draw another line like so and then make few lines like this pretty straight forward maybe slightly curve upward to give that feeling that it's a round shape it's a round shape and on the right side like like i mentioned just going down and when you reach roughly you know this point add the fin again you can make this part you can make the fin a little bit larger or smaller and you'll still look good and you can make the seahorse like a little bit skinnier or a little bit wider and used to be fine that's why i said it doesn't really too matter too much on regarding the right side and then continue the right side and look now we have our head and body of the seahorse and it's based on just the two circles and now the third circle which i'm going to use is kind of like this like a tail the kind of curl scene see like snail tail that's how i use a third circle and then you can obviously use that when you draw snails too and so on this just shows you how easily you can use structure to make sure your drawings are looking good proportionally speaking and you can now add details that's you can you should always do the large picture first and then add details in later so now i'm adding a bunch of little details maybe some lines there i'm connecting the lines right it's a thing maybe it comes down here i don't know up to you and you can then add colors if you want to and i'm gonna do that so but i don't want to do it too crazy so i'll leave it what color is the horse anyway maybe i'll make the make the make the body part like yellowish oh maybe a little bit more brighter yeah there we go yellowish i don't think that's the best color but hey it's as as artists we can have fun with the drawing it's a cartoon seahorse so it's uh up to our interpretation right and then i think i'll add different color to those little three little thingies whatever you call them patterns in the middle i mean on the fin all right and then i want to maybe have something like a little bit pinkish color for the stomach or should i say reddish color that's not really pink i'll add more saturation if you want more add more saturation go for it and i'm doing this pretty fast so there'll be probably a lot of mistakes and when you do it feel free to take your time to make sure everything is as perfect as you can and then for the thing i'll just decide i want to use a credit color like blue or purple i'll use blue to contrast with the yellow right provides a nice little contrast this is like a fantasy seahorse doesn't exist in real life and when you color in you probably don't have unless you're doing this on a digital pad on the computer like i have you put just just do with the you know charcoal pen i mean a regular pencil and you work just as well and done we have our sea horse the drone with three circles and some and uh see you guys in the next video cheers usually i like to add some lines as shadows but since that doesn't make any sense since it's a sea horse and i'm assuming it's floating in water right i'll add some bubbles so i'll maybe i'll use light blue i'll make some bubbles simply you know just draw like a circle and then jot some small circle on it you know and that gives the idea that it's like a bubble so yeah i hope you guys enjoyed this video really short and quick tutorial and i hope let me know if you want me to make more of these videos up with voice commentary
