How to draw a pig beautifully, and most importantly, believable.

How to draw a pig beautifully, and most importantly - believable? It is quite simple and even an inexperienced artist can do, because the animal has a simple body in the form of a solid cylinder, it does not even have a neck. The head, legs and tail are also very easy to portray. So, let's learn step by step how to draw a pig.

Pig standing

Step 1. Draw a large oblong horizontal oval. This will be the body for your swine. Next to the large horizontal oval (body), draw a small vertical oval so that it does not touch the main one. This smaller oval should be about 1/5 of the size of the body. In the appendix to the smaller oval, you need to draw a triangle. This will be the pig's snout. To know how to draw a pig correctly from the very beginning, carefully consider figure 1. On the model by smooth lines connect 2 ovals - the body and the head of the future mumps.

Step 2. By smooth contours, connect the upper and lower parts ready with the trunk.

Now we finish the lower extremities. Let's start with the front legs. Draw a circle near the front of the large oval so that the greater part of the circle goes into the trunk. Under the circle, draw a quadrilateral, narrowed in the middle. It resembles a child's drawing of a tree (crown and trunk). To draw the rear legs, you must, in fact, repeat the same actions: draw a circle as shown in Figure 2, draw the quadrangles, narrowed in the middle. They will represent the hind legs. The only difference is that the hind legs are thicker than the forelegs, and the hind legs should be slightly bent back approximately in the middle (where the pig has the knee joint).

We give the picture of naturalism

Step 3. The first steps showed how to draw a pig in a pencil step-by-step. Having basic contours, it is necessary to give a picture of plausibility. To begin with, eraser gently remove all the extra lines in the picture. At the top of the head, draw a couple of vertical ears, from behind add a twisted tail. At the bottom of each leg, add small trapezoids that will serve as guinea pigs.

The last figure shows that the shape of the head has been slightly changed - the stigma is slightly enlarged. The drawing is almost finished. Now, opposite the ear, you need to add a point - the pig's eyes are small, draw a snout, and a dash, slightly curved downwards, to designate the mouth. By the line of the abdomen, forelegs and shoulder blades of the pig with short strokes to lay muscles under the skin. Done!

Pig in an inclined position

And how to draw a pig differently? For example, which eats? This is also very simple. The algorithm is the same as in the previous version.

Step 1. Again, we use the basic shapes - an oval and a circle. But in this case, a large oval is widening from behind and slightly tapering in front (in the form of a large drop). We also do the same with the shape of the head - the occipital part is rounded, and the front part is sharpened (also we get a drop). The shape of the animal is already ready.

Step 2. With a smooth curved line, connect the trunk with the head. Draw the front and hind legs in the form of paired irregular quadrilaterals, as shown in the figure. With triangles, mark the ears on top of the head, slightly back from the edge of the circle. From the front of the muzzle, use a trapezoid for the future snout.

Finishing contours

Step 3. Now you need to finish the drawing. To do this, erase all unnecessary lines with an eraser. Smooth out all contours. On the muzzle we'll finish eye-sighting. They are very small pigs, slightly almond-shaped, located just opposite the ears. A short stroke is the mouth as in the figure. At the back we draw a twisted tail. In addition, short lines draw the muscles and denote the skin folds on the body of the pig.

If your drawing is similar to the original, then now you know how to draw a pig with a pencil. If something does not work the first time, do not worry, but try again!

How to draw a pig is even easier

The proposed method is suitable even for children. The main element of the picture is a circle. You need to start with a sketch. Draw 2 circles - great for the torso and small for the head. And the small circle should turn out as if flattened from above and from below. We'll arrange the circles so that the little one comes a little on the big one.

Now inside the small circle - the head - we add details such as eyes and nose. They are also represented in the form of circles. Eyes draw with small dots, close to each other, nose - in the form of oblong oval immediately under the eyes. On the nose-stigma add 2 vertical dashes-nostrils for the plausibility of the figure.

At the top of the head triangles draw ears. Inside each ear, draw one more small triangle. Add the legs at the bottom of the body with rectangles. Draw small dashes to the hooves.

Now, at the back of the short spiral, add a tail.

Now you have learned how to draw a cartoon pig. To give your masterpiece a finished look, you can color the pig.
