How to Draw a Rapper
Draw a rapper 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: head and ears.
Step 1: Head and ears
Near the top draw an egg head. Add a C ear on each side, starting and stopping on the head.
Tip Leave room on the right for an arm holding a microphone.
Step 2: The face
Draw 2 big eyes with dots and shines. Add a U nose and an open smile with a tongue.
Step 3: Flat cap
Draw a round cap over the top of the head. Add a flat brim sticking out left and a button.
Step 4: Neck and baggy top
Draw 2 neck lines from the chin. Add round shoulders, then a baggy body from armpit round to armpit.
Step 5: Resting arm
From the left shoulder and armpit draw 2 sleeve lines down to the wrist. Add a mitten hand.
Tip Let the arm bend a little at the elbow.
Step 6: Microphone arm
From the right shoulder draw a sleeve out to the elbow, then up to the wrist. Add a round fist.
Tip The arm makes an L shape, with the fist beside the cheek.
Step 7: Microphone
Next to the mouth draw a ball. Join it to the fist with a fat handle that pokes out behind.
Step 8: Big chain
From the collar hang a fat U chain, 2 lines down and back up to the collar. Add a star.
Step 9: Baggy trousers
From the top's left corner draw 2 wide trouser legs with a gap between. Stop at the right corner.
Step 10: Shoes and ground
Under each leg draw a shoe with the toe pointing out. Add a long ground line under the shoes.
Step 11: Peach skin, pink cheeks
Colour the cheeks and tongue pink. Colour the face, ears, neck, hand and fist peach. Leave the eyes white.
Step 12: Yellow chain, red top
Colour the chain and the star yellow. Colour the baggy top and both sleeves red, around the chain.
Step 13: Blue cap, black microphone
Colour the cap and trousers blue. Colour the microphone, the mouth and the shoes black. Your rapper is done!
