In life, there are some activities that are irresistible to the curious. Drawing a Minion has to be one of them. A Minion is adorably goofy, delightfully funny and endlessly entertaining, and to draw one is a real treat. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to draw the stunt of your dreams!<\/p>\n

Step One: Start With A Basic Circle<\/h3>\n

Before jumping into drawing your Minion, we recommend starting with the basics. Start by sketching a basic circle that’ll serve as the body of your Minion. Don’t worry if it’s imperfect – drawing isn’t an exact science. Experiment with circle sizes to find the right fit.<\/p>\n

Step Two: Add A Cylinder For The Neck<\/h3>\n

Now that you’ve got the basics set, let’s move on to adding details. Start by adding a cylinder-shaped neck directly beneath the circle. This will bring your figure to life and add some dimension to your drawing. Don’t worry if it looks disproportionate. That’s why we leave plenty of room for experimenting.<\/p>\n

Step Three: Refine The Shape<\/h3>\n

It’s time to refine the shape of your Minion. Begin with the legs by creating two triangle shapes. Add the arms by creating two long rounded rectangles. To complete the body shape, draw a curved line connecting the legs, arms, and neck. <\/p>\n

Step Four: Start To Shade The Body<\/h3>\n

Now it’s time to start shading the body. Using a soft pencil, add some shading to the circle, the cylinder, and the curved line. Add more detail and dimension to the arms and legs by shading those triangle shapes. To make your Minion look more realistic, shade around the edges and in the hollows. <\/p>\n

Step Five: Add On The Features<\/h3>\n

It’s time to bring your Minion to life. Start by drawing on the eyes using two big circles centered over the head. Then draw a line coming down from the eyes to make the nose. For the mouth, use an upside-down U shape. Add some hair and goggles (optional). <\/p>\n

Step Six: Finish Off The Drawing<\/h3>\n

You’re almost done drawing your Minion! To finish off the drawing, you’ll need to fill in the remaining details. Start by shading in the eyes and the mouth. Then, add some texture to the hair and any other details you want to include. When you’re finished, stand back and admire your masterpiece! <\/p>\n

Step Seven: Have Fun With It!<\/h3>\n

Drawing a Minion can be an endlessly creative process. When you’re finished, play around with your drawing and make it as unique as you are. Add extra facial features or clothing and accessories – anything goes. One of the best things about being an artist is that there’s no wrong way to draw!<\/p>\n

Step Eight: Don’t Be Afraid To Try Again<\/h3>\n

Sometimes the first version of a drawing doesn’t end up being the masterpiece you were hoping for. If that’s the case with your Minion, don’t be afraid to try again. With practice, you’ll find the perfect balance between fun and form. Keep experimenting and you’ll find the perfect Minion in no time!<\/p>\n

Step Nine: Make It Last<\/h3>\n

Finally, once you have a drawing of your Minion that you love, don’t let it languish in obscurity. Frame it, hang it up, or share it online. Let your work live on and inspire others – you never know who you might reach with your creative talent!<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
