Drawing of a Ship
If students enjoy studying the history of ships, they will probably enjoy drawing one too. Even though there are many different types, and some can get pretty complex, they do have lot in common too. Those that want to learn how to draw a ship that has the really old look, with wind in its sail, can follow this easy step by step tutorial.
In real life, many of the masts are layered, and that can get complicated to draw really quickly. If students just draw the poles first, and then the masts that are attached to them, they can can quickly get a lively looking drawing of a ship that appears to be sailing along in the water. These amazing ships do make quite a sight in real life, so it’s always fun to create a drawing that looks like the real thing!
