Step by Step Guide

Drawing a skeleton is hard. After all, you have to get everything done with accurate details. Yet, you can draw these things easily if you know the right approach. And in case you are thinking how so, you can check out how I draw a skeleton. I take the difficult steps out of the equation and replace them with much simpler ones. You will find these steps to be super easy and highly effective.

We start from the top and finish right at the toes. The majority of details will be on the skull. To keep the proportions accurate you can use a scale. Finally, once the drawing is done, simply sketch or use some light colors to color the drawing. And you are done.
