How to Draw a Tractor

How to Draw a Tractor thumbnail
Tractors look best when they come with a waving farmer.

Most kids, and plenty of adults, are fascinated with tractors because they are powerful and fun and often contain a waving farmer in a straw hat. They are also quite simple to create on a blank piece of paper. You can draw a tractor--with a waving farmer--in few simple steps.

Instructions

    • 1

      Start with the wheels. Draw one large circle beside one smaller circle, both to be filled in later.

    • 2

      Connect the wheels with a line near their bottoms, and make a rectangular shape to serve as the tractor’s body. Add a stem for the steering wheel and the bottom portion of the seat.

    • 3

      Add shading and more details. Fill in the wheels; add the steering wheel head, farmer’s body sitting on the seat portion you already drew and his straw hat and head.

    • 4

      Make the body of the tractor two-dimensional by adding another line behind the initial one, putting in a second set of tires that peak out beneath the tractor. Shade the added area. Fill in the farmer’s face and hat.

    • 5

      Add final touches, like eyeballs for the farmer, headlights for the tractor, random details on the machine and small, rounded lines around the farmer’s hand so he can be waving at you.

Tips & Warnings

  • You can make your tractor into a hot-rod tractor by giving the farmer a helmet and drawing flames on the sides of the machine.
