Ahhh. A cheeseburger. It’s the perfect combination of ooey-gooey cheese, juicy beef and a crisp sesame-seed bun. The very sight of it can make your mouth water. Drawing a cheeseburger isn’t hard, but it requires attention to detail so that your masterpiece looks realistic enough to satisfy your taste buds. Here’s how to do it.
The first step is to create the basic shape of the cheeseburger. A circle is good for the bun, an oblong shape for the patty and a triangular one for the cheese. Use a flat pencil to create the shapes and trace it twice for each shape to give it more depth. After you’re done with that, draw the sesame seeds on the bun. They should be small and evenly distributed. Next, draw in the outline of the cheese so that you can shape the cheese to your desired thickness.
Now your cheeseburger is starting to come together. It’s time to add more details. Start with the hamburger patty. Choose whether you want the patty to be cooked, raw or seared. Draw in the grill marks for a cooked patty, or use a combination of curved lines for a raw patty or one that’s been into the fryer. For the melted cheese, use a shadow and light technique to give it a 3-D look. Sharp lines are also helpful to draw in the sides of the cheese so that it doesn’t look like a blob of molten goo.
The final step is the condiments, which can be anything your heart desires. Some prefer pickles, while others prefer onions. The important thing is that you draw the condiments to their appropriate size and add the right amount of detail. Using thin lines for mustard and ketchup and thin stripes for onions will help make them look realistic. Finally, use a eraser to soften the edges, and voila! You have a delicious-looking cheeseburger.
The best way to create a realistic looking cheeseburger is to use a combination of thin lines, shadows and light and the proper shading techniques. Make sure to pay attention to all the details, from the grill marks on the patty to the condiments, if you want to create a mouth-watering art piece.
Creating the perfect bun starts with a flat pencil. You’ll want to trace your circle shape twice to give it more depth. After you finish the circle, draw in the sesame seeds. Small, evenly distributed sesame seeds are the key to making the bun look appetizing. With the right amount of practice, you’ll be able to draw delicious buns every time.
Although creating the patty may seem simple, it can make a big difference in the realism of the cheeseburger. Decide whether you want the patty to be cooked, raw or seared before you dive in. Then, draw in the grill marks or curved lines to give it that realistic look. Don’t forget to consider the thickness too. The thicker it is, the more juicy and substantial it will look.
Now it’s time to make that cheese look oh-so-tempting. To do so, use a combination of shadows and light or sharp lines. This will give your cheese that 3-D, melted look. You can also use thin lines to create the sides of the cheese, which will give it that realistic texture.
Finally, don’t forget the condiments. Whether you like pickles, ketchup or onions, the important thing is to draw them to their appropriate size and add the right amount of detail. For ketchup and mustard, use thin lines and for onions, use thin stripes. All in all, your condiments should look delicious.
Drawing a cheeseburger is fun and simple. All you need to do is create the basic shapes of the bun, patty and cheese and add details as you go. Don’t forget to add the condiments of your choice. With the right amount of practice, you’ll be able to draw delicious looking cheeseburgers in no time!
