How to Draw a Signed Cast
Draw a signed cast in 13 easy steps, about 10 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 cast.
Step 1: The cast
Draw a leg in a cast: a soft top at the knee, down the shin, and a foot bending right.
Tip A cast is a thick white shell that keeps a broken bone still.
Step 2: Two big eyes
Halfway down the shin draw 2 big egg eyes, with a black dot and white shine in each.
Step 3: Smile and cheeks
Under the eyes draw a little U smile, and a small flat cheek beside each end.
Step 4: Toes
At the foot's end draw a rounded bump poking out of the cast for the toes, with 2 lines across.
Step 5: The knee
Draw a round knee peeking out of the top of the cast, starting and stopping on its top line.
Step 6: Cuff and toe bands
Draw a curve across the cast under the knee, and one down the foot near the toes, for the edges.
Step 7: The pillow
Under the foot draw a soft pillow with round corners and a flat bottom, tucked behind the cast.
Step 8: Signatures
On the cast draw 2 squiggles where friends signed: one near the top and one on the foot.
Step 9: Heart and star
Draw a little heart low on the shin and a star near the top, away from the face.
Step 10: Ground
Draw a flat ground line under the pillow, a little longer than it on both sides.
Step 11: White cast, peach skin
Go over your lines. Colour the cast white, round the doodles. Colour the knee and toes peach.
Tip Keep the eyes white.
Step 12: Yellow star, pink cheeks
Colour the star yellow and the cheeks pink.
Step 13: Red heart, blue pillow
Colour the heart red and the pillow blue, around the cast and toes. Get well soon!
