The light yellow will make the plane stand out a little bit more from a white background while the blue is a good complimentary color to it.Airplanes and other aircraft are such a common sight in the modern world that it’s easy to take what a technological marvel they are. For this example the two main colors are blue and yellow with the inside of the engine being grey. To finish the drawing you can add some color. Once done you can trace over your drawing with darker pencil lines or a black pen/marker. Draw the windows slightly larger and rounder towards the front and slightly smaller and narrower (more oval in shape) towards the back. To finish the line drawing of the plane add the passenger windows along the the body of the plane. You can also leave some or all of these out if you want a simpler drawing. To make the plane look a little more interesting you can add some more details to the wings and engine as shown in the example. Just slightly ticking out from that draw the spinner. To show this draw the door sort of a wrapping around it similar to a label on a bottle.įor the engine draw an oval to show the opening in the engine. The part of the body of the plane the door is located on is shaped like a tube. Afterwards add the cockpit windows (again see example). Show the tip of the nose with just one curved line as in the example above. Now draw the details on the front of the plane as well as the engine. The shape of the engine should be somewhat similar to a barrel. You only need to draw one as in this view the second engine will be hidden behind the body of the airplane. Step 5 – Draw the Engineīelow the foreground wing draw the outline of the engine. Step 4 – Draw the Tail WingsĪdd the tail wings (called the horizontal stabilizers) similar to the front wings with the one in the foreground drawn longer and wider and the one in the background drawn smaller and narrower. Draw it leaning backwards and make it wider towards the bottom and narrower toward the top. Step 3 – Draw the TailĪdd the “tail” called the vertical stabilizer at the upper back of it’s body. The other reason is that part of it will be hidden behind the body of the plane. One reason the back wing should be drawn smaller to show some perspective (objects getting smaller as they go off into the distance). Add the wings with the one in the front (closer to the viewer) being wider and longer and the one in the back snorter and narrower.
