How to Draw an Armoured Hero
Draw an armoured hero in 14 easy steps, about 11 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the helmet.
Step 1: The helmet
Near the top of your paper, draw a big round helmet, a little narrower at the bottom.
Tip Leave most of the page below for the body and legs.
Step 2: Face opening
Inside the helmet, draw a rounded opening for the face, leaving a band of helmet all the way round.
Step 3: Friendly face
In the opening, draw 2 big round eyes, each with a black dot and a shine. Add a smile.
Step 4: Collar and suit
Under the helmet draw a short collar. From it draw round shoulders, the sides and a flat bottom.
Step 5: Shoulder pads
On each shoulder draw a round shoulder pad, like half a ball, hanging just over the edge.
Tip Rub out the shoulder line inside each pad.
Step 6: Chest plate and star
In the middle of the chest draw a plate with a round bottom. Put a 5-point star inside it.
Step 7: Arms
Start under each pad. Draw the arm down to the wrist, bent a little, and back up to the body.
Step 8: Gauntlets
Over each wrist draw a wide cuff. Under it draw a round mitten hand with a thumb pointing in.
Tip Rub out the arm lines inside each cuff.
Step 9: Belt and buckle
Just above the bottom of the suit, draw a belt line from side to side. Add a square buckle.
Step 10: Legs
Start at the left corner of the suit. Draw 2 legs down, and end at the right corner.
Step 11: Boots and ground
Under each leg draw a tall boot with the toe pointing out. Draw a ground line under the boots.
Step 12: Peach and yellow
Colour the face peach. Colour the star and the buckle yellow.
Tip Leave the eyes white.
Step 13: Grey armour
Colour the helmet, collar, pads, chest plate, belt, gauntlets and boots grey, around the face, star and buckle.
Step 14: Blue suit
Colour the suit, arms and legs blue, around the grey armour. Your hero is done!
