Let’s Get Started!
Step 1: Gather your supplies.
You’ll need:
- Paper: Any kind of paper will work, but drawing paper is best.
- Pencil: A regular pencil will do, but you can also use colored pencils or crayons.
- Eraser: You’ll need this to fix any mistakes.
- A reference image: Find a picture of a snail that you like. This will help you see the details and shapes.
Step 2: Start with the shell.
- Shape: Snails’ shells are usually round or oval, but they can also be spiral-shaped. Start by drawing a simple circle or oval.
- Spiral: If you want to draw a spiral shell, start with a small circle and then draw a series of smaller circles around it, making sure they overlap slightly. Connect the circles to create a spiral shape.
Step 3: Add the body.
- Shape: Snails’ bodies are long and thin, and they usually have a pointed head. Draw a curved line under the shell to represent the body.
- Details: Add two small circles for eyes, and a tiny line for a mouth.
Step 4: Color it in!
- Colors: Snails come in all sorts of colors, so let your imagination run wild. You can use bright colors, pastel colors, or even black and white.
- Patterns: You can add patterns to your snail’s shell, like stripes, dots, or swirls.
Step 5: Make it funny!
- Expressions: Give your snail a funny expression by drawing its eyes wide, its mouth open, or its tongue sticking out.
- Accessories: You can add accessories to your snail, like a hat, a scarf, or even a little backpack.
Tips for Drawing Funny Snails:
- Exaggerate: Don’t be afraid to exaggerate the features of your snail to make it funnier.
