Today, we’re going to learn how to draw Aang, the fun and brave character from the show “Avatar: The Last Airbender.” Get your drawing tools ready, and let’s have some fun!
Before we start, make sure you have these things:
First, draw a big circle for Aang’s head. He doesn’t have hair, so a circle is perfect! It’s okay if it’s not perfect; it makes your drawing special.
Next, draw two smaller circles for his eyes. Put them on each side of his face. Add tiny circles inside for highlights and color the bigger circles, leaving the tiny ones white.
Now, let’s add Aang’s nose. Draw a small curve that looks like a smile. For his mouth, make a happy smile. Don’t forget his eyebrows and ears! Draw a “C” shape and a backward “C” for his ears.
To draw his body, start with two lines from his chin that get wider at the bottom. Draw a small curve under his chin for his neckline and an upside-down “V” for his collar.
For his shoulders, draw curved lines from the collar. Then, draw two lines across his body for his belt.
In the middle of his body, draw a smaller upside-down “V” for his pants. Connect the sides with curves to make his legs. For his boots, draw straight lines down and a “U” shape for his foot. Add straps and curves for details.
Keep Aang’s arms simple. Draw a curve or line from his shoulders to his legs. Add lines for his sleeves and wrists.
For his staff, draw two lines from his hand to make a glider shape. Add curves at the bottom to finish it.
Now, let’s color! Use markers for a smooth look. Start with Aang’s skin color and add layers with colored pencils. Be careful not to smear the black lines.
For Aang’s blue arrow, use a blue marker to draw it on his forehead. Make it bright by adding more color.
Once you’re done coloring, go over the outlines with a black marker to make them pop. This makes Aang stand out and look more like a cartoon.
Great job! You’ve drawn and colored Aang. Remember, it’s okay if your drawing looks different. The most important thing is to have fun and keep practicing. You can add your own creative touches or backgrounds to make your artwork special.
Happy drawing!
Character Observation Walk: Take a walk around your home or neighborhood and look for things that remind you of Aang or other characters from “Avatar: The Last Airbender.” It could be shapes, colors, or even objects that look like something from the show. Draw or write down what you find and share it with your class or family.
Create Your Own Character: Use the steps you learned to draw Aang and create your own character. Think about what makes your character special. Do they have a unique hairstyle, outfit, or special power? Draw your character and write a short story about their adventures.
Color Mixing Experiment: Gather your coloring supplies and experiment with mixing colors. Try to create the perfect shade for Aang’s skin or his blue arrow. What happens when you mix different colors together? Share your discoveries with your friends or family and see if they can guess how you made each color.
