How to Draw a Dragon Face: A Fun Guide

Drawing a dragon face is super fun and lets you use your imagination! Let’s learn how to draw one step by step. Grab your drawing tools, and let’s get started!

What You Need

Before we start, make sure you have these things:

  • A marker or any drawing tool you like
  • Paper
  • Coloring materials like markers or colored pencils

Step 1: Draw the Nose

1. Draw two small circles in the middle of your paper. These are the dragon’s nostrils.

2. Above the circles, draw a curved line on each side.

3. Connect the curves with an upside-down “V” shape.

4. Add more “V” shapes to make the dragon’s snout.

Step 2: Create the Eyes

1. Draw two circles for the eyes, one on each side of the nose.

2. Above each eye, draw an eyebrow that arches over the eye.

3. Draw a line under each eye that curves down and connects to the side.

Step 3: Add Flames Around the Eyes

1. From the middle of each eye, draw an “S” curve that goes up and back down.

2. Draw another “S” curve next to the first one.

3. Connect these lines to the outer part of the eye.

Step 4: Draw the Mouth

1. In the center, draw a “V” shape for the top of the mouth.

2. Create a zigzag line from the nostrils to make the mouth’s outline.

3. Add flame-like curves coming out from the mouth on both sides.

Step 5: Add Teeth

1. Draw a big sharp tooth on each side of the mouth.

2. Between these teeth, draw a “W” shape for the top row of teeth.

3. For the bottom row, draw a “U” shape and add sharp teeth with upside-down “V” shapes.

Step 6: Define the Jaw and Whiskers

1. Draw a “U” shape for the bottom lip, making it thicker at the bottom.

2. Add an “S” curve under the jaw to look like fire.

3. For the whiskers, draw long curved lines from the nostrils, like a mustache.

Step 7: Shape the Head

1. Draw a curve from the top of the head.

2. Create zigzag shapes to make the dragon’s horns.

3. Add more curves and lines to shape the top of the head and connect to the eyebrows.

Step 8: Add Final Details

1. Add any extra details or designs to make your dragon unique.

2. You can draw more curves, flames, or patterns to make it look cool.

Step 9: Color Your Dragon

Now for the fun part—coloring! Use your favorite colors to bring your dragon to life. You can choose any colors you like. There are no rules!

Conclusion

Great job on drawing your dragon face! Remember, the most important thing is to have fun and be creative. Try different designs and colors. Happy drawing!

  • What do you think makes dragons so interesting to draw? Have you ever seen a dragon in a book or movie that you liked? What did it look like?
  • If you could make your dragon face look like anything you wanted, what special features would you add? Would it have big eyes, colorful scales, or maybe a funny expression?
  • Think about the colors you chose for your dragon. Why did you pick those colors? Do they remind you of anything special, like a favorite animal or a place you’ve visited?
  1. Dragon Observation Walk: Take a walk around your neighborhood or a nearby park with an adult. Look for things that remind you of dragons or dragon features. Can you find shapes that look like dragon eyes, noses, or flames? Draw what you see in your sketchbook and think about how these shapes can inspire your dragon drawings.
  2. Create Your Own Dragon Story: Use your dragon drawing as the main character in a short story. Think about where your dragon lives, what it likes to do, and who its friends are. Share your story with your family or classmates. You can even act it out as a play with your friends!
  3. Dragon Color Experiment: Gather different coloring materials like crayons, markers, and colored pencils. Try coloring your dragon using different materials to see how the colors change. Which colors make your dragon look fierce? Which make it look friendly? Share your colorful dragons with your friends and talk about the choices you made.
