How military drawings are drawn. How to draw a war so that the picture has a certain meaning

Step by step instructions for practical drawing of tanks, planes and helicopters.

Items needed for work: a clean white sheet of good quality paper, a pencil with medium hard or soft lead, an eraser. Compasses, ink, feather, brush, ballpoint pen, felt-tip pen - optional.

Choose a sample of military equipment that you want to draw.
With light touches of the pencil, without pressure, very carefully and carefully apply the strokes on the paper that make up the initial (first) “step” - usually it is located in the upper left corner on the pattern you have chosen.
Then take the second "step" - also without pressure and just as carefully. Follow not only the direction and curvature of the lines, but also the distance between them, that is, their relative position. The size of the drawing should match the size of your sheet of paper - not too small and not too large. The first "steps" seem to be the least difficult, but they must be carried out with particular precision, because any mistake made at the beginning of the process can ruin the final result.

The new lines for each “step” are shown in bolder in the diagram so that it is easier for you to recognize what exactly should be added to your drawing at the next step.
Continue working as before with light, thin strokes. If some line turned out to be too thick or dark, lighten it with an eraser: draw it along the line without much pressure, without trying to erase it completely.

And a few more tips.
Remember that for all the apparent complexity of some objects, they can always be reduced to simple geometric shapes: a ball, a cone, a pyramid, a cube, a parallelepiped, a cylinder.

Well, of course, say, ships do not exist on their own, but, as a rule, organically fit into the surrounding landscape. Therefore, the elements of the landscape - the sea, the river, the rocks, even if only slightly outlined - will greatly enliven and enrich the drawing.

When you have finished applying light strokes, that is, having completed the entire eight “steps” shown in the selected diagram, and making sure that all the elements of your drawing correspond to the desired image, outline them with confident pencil movements with the necessary pressure. After this final finishing, the drawing can be considered ready. If desired, you can increase the contrast of the lines using ink (using a thin brush or steel feather), a ballpoint pen, or a felt-tip pen. When the ink, paste, or ink is dry, use an eraser to remove any unnecessary pencil marks.

Remember: if the first attempts to draw do not lead to the desired result, keep trying. It is very important not to lose perseverance, patience, enthusiasm. In the end, your efforts will be crowned with complete success - at that moment you may not immediately believe yourself, but you will still be pleasantly surprised by what you have achieved.

We sincerely hope that your drawing skills will improve and the long time spent on recreating the images of all these formidable and in their own way beautiful examples of technology will not be wasted.

"War Through the Eyes of Children". Drawings and reflections

Photo report from the exhibition of children's drawings "The Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945".

Not much time will pass and the opportunity to recreate the "living history" of the war will be destroyed forever. That is why the interest of children in the events of the terrible 40 years on the eve of the 69th anniversary of the Great Victory is so valuable.

What drives the guys, what encourages them to return again and again to the events of 70 years ago? They are looking for their past, their roots, studying the history of the war not only from fiction, documentary essays about the war, but also from the memories of grandfathers and great-grandfathers passed down from generation to generation. Young authors recorded their stories - this is the living history of the Great Patriotic War. We, adults, understand that the worst thing that could happen to our ordinary children, who, fortunately, did not hear the howl of bombs, who did not know the horrors of war, is ignorance and insensitivity. The worst thing is that without yesterday there is neither today nor tomorrow.

For the essays “War through the eyes of children”, for the respect shown to veterans who defended the independence of our Motherland in a fierce battle with fascism, for the memory of the heroic past of our people, I thank the pupils of the creative association “Needlewoman”:
Plekhanova Irina
Kivilevich Anastasia
Neverova Oksana
Balanyuk to Evelina
Manakhova Elizabeth
I thank the young artists participating in the fine art competition "Forever in the memory of the people."
Many years have passed since the Great Patriotic War, but the stories of grandfathers and great-grandfathers resurrect the terrible image of the past, so that we know that it was so, so that we would protect the world that the soldiers won for us. To remember the heroes who gave the Motherland a Great Victory!
The most significant day in our history. The day Nazi Germany fell. The day the Soviet flag was raised over the Reichstag. The day that went down in history as the day of the greatness of the Soviet Army. This day is May 9th.
On the eve of the main holiday of the country, our creative association hosted an essay and drawing competition “War through the Eyes of Children”. An exhibition of children's drawings on the theme "The Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945" began its work. The exposition presents works in different genres. The drawings exhibited in the hall are the work of our pupils, young and old. Some of the artists have recently turned 7 years old, but their paintings are already on display at the exhibition.
June. Russia. Sunday.
Dawn in the arms of silence.
A fragile moment remains
Until the first shots of the war.

Get up, soldier!
Well, why are you quiet?
Get up, dear!
The earth will give you strength...
But he didn't get up. The poet will write a poem
And read aloud over the mass grave.
It was forty-one. There was a fierce fight
For the Motherland, for the blue sky.
For you and me to breathe...
Let's remember those who did not come from the battle.
N. Seleznev.

And the fallen are all alive in our hearts, -
Silently stand next to us.
(V. Snegirev ■)

In this lesson you can learn how to draw a soldier with a pencil and your own patience.

Previously, we have already drawn drawings on a military theme:

In drawing a soldier, the lesson "" may also be useful to you, but this is already for an in-depth understanding. So let's get started.

First, we make the base markup, such a frame for the body of our soldier. Above - an oval in the form of a head, Then it connects to the body of two trapeziums, then the line of the legs and also the lines of the arms. Did it look like the picture below? We move on.

Within the oval, we need to draw the head-face of a soldier. First, mark the oval with guide lines, draw the ears on the sides. On a horizontal line, draw the eyes and eyebrows, a little lower - the nose and mouth. Add lines to the ears, draw a little short hair of a soldier.

From above we draw a cap. Add its top, as well as a star. We finish the neck.

So, our head is ready, you can finish the collar and shoulders of our friend.

The next step is to draw its shape, or rather its upper part. We draw shoulder straps and a belt.

Pockets, buttons and a star on the belt should also be depicted on the top of the form.

Now you need to draw the bottom part - trousers. Pay attention to the folds.

Do not forget to also draw the hands of our soldier in uniform. Step by step we draw the sleeves, and then we draw the palms. It will not be too easy for beginners to draw detailed hands, so everything is very schematic.

It remains only to draw the boots.

In this lesson we will look at how to draw the Great Patriotic War (WWII) 1941-1945 with a pencil in stages. This is the war of the USSR against Germany and its allies. The Second World War itself began on September 1, 1939, if you are interested in how it all began and what were the prerequisites for development, then read the Wikipedia article. But let's get down to drawing.

Draw the horizon - a horizontal line, it is located about 1/3 of the sheet from the top. Draw a country road below and place three soldiers, the further away, the smaller the scale. Click on the picture to enlarge.

We draw houses and a or hills on the horizon, then the farthest soldier, it should not be big. Click on the image to view the details.

We draw the second one with a weapon behind a hillock, his head and body are slightly larger than those of the previous one, about 1.5 times.

Draw a soldier with a weapon in the foreground.

Apply dark areas on the bodies of the soldiers and on the weapons, draw a little grass.

Fill in the grass, slopes, and field with strokes.

Now, in a lighter tone, we imitate smoke from fires, hatch the steppe part, in the foreground we highlight the hillock and trench. This is how you can draw.

Military drawings with a pencil can be created in stages, even for small children. There are a lot of lessons and instructions on the net, pictures for sketching, which allow you to independently transfer various types of military equipment to paper.

Boys will like to draw a drawing on a military theme with a pencil, but girls can also create such pictures, for example, on the eve of a big holiday on May 9 or February 23. On Victory Day, the drawing will be a great gift for veterans or relatives who served in the army.

Military aircraft pencil drawing

A military aircraft can look interesting as a simple pencil drawing without coloring it with paints or colored pencils. To begin with, it is worth checking the availability of the tools necessary to create an art project:

• ruler;
• pencil;
• blank sheet of paper;
• eraser.

If possible, choose hard and soft pencils, which are convenient for making auxiliary lines or directing the main ones. The following simple instructions will allow young artists to create their own beautiful military aircraft on paper.

1. We create the main lines that serve as the base for placing the plane on the leaf. Using a ruler, draw a long line, which we tilt down a little. The second will cross the first, you need to lead it from the lower left corner of the leaf to the upper right, this is the basis for the wings and tail. To make the tail of the plane realistic, let's add a small short line on the first main line, it should be perpendicular.
2. If the lines are not a good enough guide to draw the correct shape of the plane, we create additional points that serve as the edges of the nose, tail and wings of the object. It is recommended to start from the extreme right point, where the nose will be located.
3. Smooth lines draw the cockpit of the aircraft. The movements should be smooth, do not press on the paper with a pencil. The lines of the cockpit should narrow slightly as you approach the leftmost point, where the aircraft's tail is located.
4. From the main lines of the cockpit, focusing on the second auxiliary with the same soft and smooth movements, we draw the wings of the aircraft.
5. An important final step is drawing the tail. For military aircraft, the tail can be of different shapes, with additional elements, so it is advisable to look at the drawing for an example and ask the child to copy the finished shape.
6. The last step is adding important elements to bring the plane to life. A child can add various emblems to the body of the aircraft, and one cannot do without drawing the front glass and side windows.
7. After the lines are drawn, with the help of an eraser, auxiliary lines and points are removed, extra strokes that were the base of the sketch.

All drawings of military equipment with a pencil are created on such a base: auxiliary lines intersecting in the right places, as a guideline for creating basic contours.

warship pencil drawing

Military drawings with a pencil allow the child not only to understand the basics of creating complex drawings, but also to study the structure of various vehicles. Many children like to create a warship and a pencil drawing that requires instructions.

Unlike the previous drawing, the children begin the art project by drawing the waves of the sea, which are located at the bottom of the leaflet. Waves are curved lines that young artists can draw.

On the waves you need to place one horizontal line without tilt. The ruler will come to the rescue in this. The length of the main horizontal line should be of medium length, taking into account the fact that additional lines will diverge into the sides, continuing the base of the ship's hull, they are made using a ruler. To do this, the ruler is placed slightly at an angle to the outer sides of the leaf. You can connect these two lines with one solid line. The base of the ship is ready.

Next, you should focus on an example-picture from which the cabin compartments and deck details are copied. Cannons are drawn without fail, and the flag of the ship will be the main "highlight" of such a creation. An important detail of the drawing. At the end, some curved wave lines are added around the ship to give the illusion of a military vehicle moving.

Such military drawings with a pencil for children may seem simple at first glance, but with the help of shading they decorate the picture, and if there is a desire, they add a little color with the help of paints.

Soldier drawing

Drawing a military soldier with a pencil can be done by young children. The main thing is to pre-train to repeat the basic geometric shapes and learn how to make neat lines.
As in the case of a drawing of a military aircraft with a pencil for children, it is worth creating several auxiliary lines with which the proportions of the soldier's body will be correct.

1. First, let's work on the markup. The frame of the picture is the basis of the soldier's body. Draw an oval on the top of the vertical line, which serves as the base for the head. A little lower draws two trapeziums - the base of the body. From the trapezoid we make lines for the arms and lines below for the legs. An important point is that the drawing is made larger in order to display all the details well.
2. In the oval zone, for accuracy, auxiliary lines can be created with thin strokes: one horizontally just above the center of the oval, the second vertical clearly in the center, crossing the zone of the soldier’s future face. From the oval on the sides, draw the ears with neat curved lines. On the auxiliary horizontal line, we add eyes and exactly above them are two souls of eyebrows. In the lower part, it will be located, and between the created details of the face, the nose. On top of the oval, you can add a bang.
3. We draw a pilot. If it is difficult to repeat its shape, you can stop at a small triangle that "sits" exactly on top of the oval.
4. From the oval down to the trapezium with smooth lines.
5. From the neck we move on to drawing the shape of the body, making the trapezoid not so angular. At this stage, you can immediately deal with such details as the collar, other elements of clothing in the form of a belt and pagons.
6. Do not forget about pockets, buttons and an asterisk on the strap.
7. The lower part is trousers. Kids should help with them, because not all little artists will be able to repeat the lines of the folds of trousers. We finish this part with boots.
8. Step by step, slowly draw the hands, the sleeves of the form, from which the hands of a soldier can be seen. It is not necessary to draw the hands in detail. Kids can stop at a schematic image.
