How To Draw A Candy Corn Monster Folding Surprise

How to Draw a Candy Corn Monster: A Fun Art Activity

In this article, we will show you how to make your very own candy corn monster. This fun drawing activity is great for everyone and only needs a few simple things. Let’s get started!

Materials Needed

Before we begin, gather these materials:

• Markers (or any drawing tool you like)
• Paper (marker paper is best)
• Scratch paper (to protect your table)
• Something to color with

Step 1: Prepare Your Paper

1. Fold the Paper: Take the top edge of your paper and fold it down to meet the bottom edge. Press it down the middle and out to the corners.
2. Create a Guide Fold: Fold the top flap back up to the top. Flip the paper over and do the same fold again. This will help guide your drawing.
3. Unfold the Last Flap: Unfold the last flap and flatten the paper. Put a piece of scratch paper underneath to keep your table clean.

Step 2: Draw the Candy Corn Shape

1. Draw the Letter ‘V’: Above the fold, draw a letter ‘V’ with a curved bottom. The top of the ‘V’ should be above the fold, and the bottom should be below it.
2. Connect the Sides: Draw the top of the candy corn by connecting the left side to the right, making the candy corn shape.

Step 3: Add Facial Features

1. Draw the Eyes: On the left side, draw a circle for one eye and another circle on the right for the other eye. Add smaller circles in the top left of each eye for highlights.
2. Color the Eyes: Fill in the larger circles but leave the smaller circles white.
3. Draw the Mouth: Start on the left and draw a line across to the right. Add cheek lines on both sides for extra detail.

Step 4: Create the Folding Surprise

1. Open the Paper: Carefully open the top and bottom parts of your candy corn to connect them.
2. Draw Teeth: In the mouth, draw a ‘V’ shape for the teeth and curve around to make a letter ‘M’ shape. Add more candy corn shapes on each side.
3. Draw the Tongue: Create a wavy tongue coming out of the mouth, making it look 3D by curving it back and forth.

Step 5: Add Details to the Mouth

1. Draw More Teeth: Add upside-down ‘V’ shapes for teeth at the top of the mouth, connecting them with curves.
2. Outline the Mouth: Draw the inside line of the mouth, following the original outline and connecting it down to the bottom.

Step 6: Draw the Bat Wings

1. Create the Wing Shape: On the left side, draw a line that curves up and back down, making sure it stays below the fold.
2. Add Wing Spikes: Draw spikes on the wing by curving up and down.
3. Connect the Wing: Draw a curve to connect the wing to the candy corn shape. Do the same steps on the right side, flipping the design.

Step 7: Final Touches

1. Color Your Drawing: Once you are happy with your drawing, it’s time to color! Feel free to add shading and highlights for extra detail.
2. Add Extra Elements: Think about adding more features, like baby candy corns flying in the background, to make your drawing even more fun.
