"Alien" - step-by-step instruction on how to draw an extraterrestrial

Recently, among the young people is very popular science fiction in general and space topics in particular. In this category, among other things, extraterrestrial civilizations also fall. Fantasy about aliens is in great demand in the mass media: television (films and programs about UFOs), radio (stories and stories read and discussed on the air) and printed publications (books and press).

Also this topic excites fans of cheap fame. Many people who want to draw attention to their person, often claim to have seen aliens. This information is often unreliable, as well as the existence of other civilizations in general. Nevertheless, the popularity of this myth makes it popular, along with legends of dragons and unicorns. And all this leads to the fact that the images of the inhabitants of other planets leak into the art of art.

The question of how to draw an alien does not have a clear answer, because no one knows how these creatures really look, if they exist in real life. Any artist can come up with his own, previously unknown creature, call him a representative of the alien race, and no one can argue with him. Therefore, a clear guide, telling how to draw an alien, is appropriate only if it is a question of any particular character.

You can depict a green little man with eyes "on the strings," a six-legged green dog or a giant cockroach, or to think of nothing at all like a creature. In our opinion, the latter option is the most interesting, as it provides a wider scope for imagination. This is exactly what the creators of the rather popular fantasy film "Alien" did, presenting their unique, frightening and at the same time interesting monster in their own way.

Today we will tell you how to draw an extraterrestrial from this series of films. To begin with, you will need to sketch out the outlines of the future "Alien". After you have decided on the basic proportions, you can proceed to a detailed study of the image.

We start drawing from the head. First, the upper part, the so-called forehead.

Then draw the jaws.

After that, go to the neck.

Then we draw a tail. In the basic outline, of course, he was not, but he will give a more complete look to the picture as a whole, besides, he will add a lot of dynamism. It is quite easy to chart the tail end.

Now you need to pay careful attention to the structure of the surface of the body of the newcomer. Draw the base of the tail, the front paw and the ribs of the "Alien".

We add the second paw and finish the lower part of the trunk.

Now delete the unnecessary lines and fix the necessary ones.

At this stage, we conclude our lesson. If you care how to draw an alien in color, you can paint the image either manually or with the help of special computer programs, such as, for example, as Photoshop. The example presented at the beginning of the article was obtained in this way, and the technology of this process is already a topic for a separate conversation.
