Video Transcript

"This one is a popular one with a lot of the ninja boys and people who are into some oriental designs. It's a dragon. And I love this one personally. It's really cool, it's really fun to draw and it's really easy. So, I'm going to start off with the outline. Now I just usually go to the side of people's heads. And so for him. Just use people's face as a gage for how big you want their pieces to be. Now this I'm starting off with two 'V's. What it is is it's just the head. And then I'm going to draw crazy antennas coming off the top of the dragon's head. And I'll follow up with the drawing the body and the tail, which I'll pull down nice and low unto his cheek. And so pull out the stomach. And that's the main part of the body. And then I'll draw some arms just like lizard arms. Just pull them up in a kind of upward acorn shape. Then come down in a eye lid slit. And then draw some claws on the bottom. And just continue that for the bottom legs too. And just go crazy with your paintbrush. Just use all the contours of their face. They end up really loving it. OK. And that's the base for your dragon."
