Halloween Mummy Tutorial

Well, everyone, it's getting close to Halloween!
I love this holiday, it is very fun and exciting! And, you can draw so many things! Today, I'm going to teach you how I draw my Halloween Mummy!


Step 1-
Lightly draw a circle for the head at an angle. Add a chin and a cross on the fight side of the face. Draw a curved backbone under the chin with an oval at its base. Sketch construction lines on slight angles for legs and flat-bottomed shapes bent inward for the feet. Sketch a circle under the chin for the chest and add shoulders running across. Draw a bent construction line for the right arm and a hand pointing up. Bend the left arm over the chest with a hand facing down.     
Step 2-
Study the outline of the mummy's muscular form. Beginning at the head, build the the curved shape of the body around the skeleton.


Step 3-
Observe how the curved and wavy line work wraps around the body. Draw eye sockets on either side of the cross. Sketch a nose and a fierce mouth with bared teeth. Working down the body, use a medium pressure with your pencil to draw the bandages. Draw way scraps flowing out and add fingers to the hands.


Step 4
Darken the outlines and add shading.
For a background, add faint lines for the moon and clouds. Then, draw rocks on the ground and two or three pyramids. 




That's all for this tutorial, until next time, have fun drawing!
