Have you ever observed the majestic beauty of an eagle? Flying high in the sky, these birds are heavy-beaked and big-footed creatures that are said to be very powerful. Known for their great strength and excellent eyesight, they are awe-inspiring beings that can be fun to draw.
If you are captivated by the regal charm of the bird, then capture it in your canvass. This article will help you draw an eagle through step-by-step instructions. Follow the instructions carefully and make a perfect piece:
Instructions
We will start with simple basic shapes and then add details to the shapes for the finishing touch.
- First, draw an oval shape for the body of the eagle.
- Next, add the tail. For this, first, draw two straight lines from the end portion of the body and then join the two lines by a rough curve. The lines should be slanting a bit away from one another.
- Draw the head and neck portion of the bird. For this, you can use a half oval shape. Ensure the broader part of the oval forms the neck and the narrower makes the eagle’s head. Add a beak to the head by drawing a shape resembling ‘<‘. The brim should be pointed at the edge so as to have a hook-like effect.
- Add wings to the body by making two boxy flaps. You can initially make rectangles for the wings. Later, add desired curves and fringes as and where required. Make these wings balanced with the body to add realism and perspective to your sketch.
- Now add two lines (a bit curved) descending from the bottom of the body. These will become the eagle’s legs. At the edge of these lines, draw the claws of the bird’s foot.
- Add the evil glaring eyes. Shape them up for a finer look. The basic structure of the bird is ready. Now add extra details to make it more realistic.
- Give finishing touches to the sketch, like add feathers and sharpness to the nails. All these details will make your drawing more delicate.
Your drawing is complete. See how awesome your eagle looks!
