How to Draw a Hatchback
Draw a hatchback in 11 easy steps, about 8 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 body.
Step 1: The body
Start low on the left. Draw a stubby nose, a long windscreen, a flat roof and a tall back. Stop.
Tip A hatchback is a little box on wheels: the back is tall and straight.
Step 2: Belly and tyres
Start where you stopped. Draw 2 rainbow wheel arches with a flat belly, ending at the nose. Add tyres.
Step 3: Big headlight eye
On the bonnet draw a big round headlight almost as big as a tyre. Add a pupil with a shine.
Step 4: Two big windows
Inside the windscreen draw a slanted front window with a shine line. Add a big square back window behind it.
Tip The gap between the windows is the pillar behind the front door.
Step 5: Smile and cheek
Start under the eye and draw a bold U smile, stopping before the nose. Add a round cheek.
Step 6: Door and handle
Start under the front window and draw a door line down, stopping on the arch. Add an oval handle.
Step 7: Bumper, light and pipe
Add a bumper on the nose and a tail light. Draw a pipe, starting and stopping low on the back.
Step 8: Puff and road
Draw a little cloud puff behind the pipe. Start under the nose and draw a road, stopping past the puff.
Step 9: Sky windows, yellow lights
Colour both windows sky blue, leaving the shine white. Colour the headlight and tail light yellow.
Step 10: Pink cheek, teal body
Colour the cheek pink and the whole body teal around the windows, lights, cheek and handle.
Step 11: Grey bits, black tyres
Colour the hubs, bumper, handle, pipe and puff grey, and the tyres black around the hubs. Dot each hub black.
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a hatchback, drawn by you.
