How to Draw a Deep Sea Diver
Draw a deep sea diver 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: round helmet.
Step 1: Round helmet
Near the top of your paper, in the middle, draw a big round helmet.
Tip Make it as round as you can. Leave room above it for the air hose.
Step 2: Front window
In the middle of the helmet draw a circle. Draw a bigger circle around it for the rim.
Step 3: Friendly face
Inside the window draw 2 oval eyes with black dots, and a small smile under them.
Tip Only the eyes and the smile show through the window.
Step 4: Three ports
Draw a small rounded box poking out on each side of the helmet, and one on top.
Step 5: Brass collar
Under the helmet draw a wide collar with round shoulders. Add a curve across it from edge to edge.
Step 6: Suit and belt
Under the collar draw the suit body, straight down. Across its bottom draw a belt with a square buckle.
Step 7: Two arms
From under each shoulder draw a baggy arm. It goes out to the elbow, then straight down.
Tip Make each arm fat at the top and thinner at the wrist.
Step 8: Mitten gloves
On each wrist draw a mitten, thumb on the inside. Add a cuff line across each, from edge to edge.
Tip Rub out the end of the arm inside each glove.
Step 9: Baggy legs
From under the belt draw 2 baggy legs. From the outside of each knee draw a short crease.
Tip Leave an upside-down V gap between the legs.
Step 10: Heavy boots
Under each leg draw a big boot with a round toe pointing out. Draw a long ground line under them.
Tip Rub out the leg lines inside the boots. Draw a line across each boot for its thick sole.
Step 11: Air hose, bubbles
From the top right of the helmet draw a wavy hose going up. Draw 3 bubbles on the left.
Tip The hose carries air down from a boat.
Step 12: Peach face, yellow brass
Colour the face peach and leave the eyes white. Colour the helmet and the collar yellow.
Step 13: Sandy suit, orange trim
Colour the suit sandy: body, arms and legs. Colour the window rim, the 3 ports and the buckle orange.
Step 14: Brown gloves, grey boots
Colour the gloves and the belt brown. Colour the boots and the hose grey. Leave the bubbles white.
