How to Draw Frankenstein
Draw Frankenstein 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 head.
Step 1: The head
Near the top of your paper draw a big head with a flat top and a round chin.
Tip Make it a bit more than half the page tall.
Step 2: Two ears
On each side of the head draw a C ear, starting on the head line and stopping lower down.
Step 3: Big eyes
Below the middle of the head draw 2 big tall eyes, one eye apart. Colour a black dot in each.
Step 4: Nose and smile
Draw a tiny U nose between the eyes. Under it draw a wide smile with a curl at each end.
Step 5: Eyebrows
Above each eye draw a short curved line like a little rainbow.
Step 6: Flat hair
Start on the left by the ear. Draw over the flat top of the head and stop on the right.
Step 7: Jagged fringe
Start at the same left point. Draw a zigzag across the forehead above the eyebrows, stopping on the right.
Step 8: Stitches
On the forehead draw a slanted line with 3 tiny lines across. Add a short one on the left cheek.
Step 9: Inside the ears
Inside each ear draw a smaller C that follows the outside curve.
Step 10: Neck and jacket
Draw 2 short neck lines under the chin, then round shoulders down to a flat bottom. Add a U collar.
Step 11: Neck bolts
On each side of the neck draw a bolt sticking out: a small box with a cap on the end.
Step 12: Green skin
Colour the face, the ears and the neck green. Leave the eyes white.
Step 13: Black hair
Colour the hair black and the jacket and bolts dark grey. Go over your lines and your Frankenstein is done!
