Level of difficulty:
EasyAdvanced

Drawing a realistic car is not easy. This step by step guide can help you master this task. As a man-made machine, a car is characterized by high symmetry and straightness.

To make your result look real, you need to draw very precisely. Therefore, take enough time and look at the template carefully.

For the drawing you will need a pencil, a ruler, a dividers, an eraser, a drawing pencil and suitable colors according to your taste.

Step 1: Rectangle as border & frame

The initial shape for your drawing is a narrow rectangle with an aspect ratio of about 2.5:1

Step 2: Area layout

Draw a straight horizontal line with the pencil a bit below the half of the drawing area.

Step 3: Wheels

In the lower compartment, draw the two wheels of the car with a dividers. Keep a sufficient distance from the side edge.

Step 4: More guides

Now draw two more straight guides with the pencil. Use the first to divide the area above the first guide into two equal halves. Use the second to add the same area again below the first line.

Step 5: Silhouette of the vehicle

Now outline the shape of the body with the pencil. Use the guide lines to orient yourself and maintain the proportions. Pay attention to the contours of the headlights and bumpers.

Step 6: First details

Draw the first details such as windows, lights or turn signals. Make sure that the shapes are clear and uniform so that the final look is as realistic as possible.

Step 7: More subtleties

Deepen the details, working neatly and carefully. Draw rims, side mirrors and contours of the seat and steering wheel.

Step 8: Removing the guides

Draw everything neatly with a drawing pencil and erase the pencil drawing and guides completely.
