How to Draw a Security Camera
Draw a security camera 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 body.
Step 1: The body
In the middle of your paper draw a box with rounded corners, wider than tall.
Step 2: Two big eyes
On the box draw 2 big egg eyes. Colour a black dot in each, leaving a white shine.
Step 3: Smile and cheeks
Under the eyes draw a small U smile. Add a little oval cheek beside each end.
Step 4: The rain cover
On top of the box draw a long thin cover. Let it stick out a long way to the right.
Tip The cover keeps rain off the lens.
Step 5: The lens
On the right side draw a short tube, wider at the end. Close the end with a tall oval.
Step 6: Lens glass
Inside the tall oval draw a smaller oval for the glass. Add a curved ring line across the tube.
Step 7: A little light
In the top left corner of the box draw a tiny circle for the light.
Step 8: The wall
Far to the left draw a long line down for the wall. Add a tall thin plate on it.
Tip The plate sits lower than the camera.
Step 9: The arm
Start on the plate. Draw a thick arm across, then bend it up to hold the box.
Step 10: Pink and red
Colour the 2 cheeks pink and the tiny light red.
Step 11: Blue glass
Colour the lens glass light blue.
Step 12: Grey body
Colour the box light grey, around the cheeks and the light. Leave the eyes white.
Step 13: Dark grey parts
Colour the cover, the lens tube, the arm and the plate dark grey. Your security camera is watching!
Your finished drawing
Follow the steps above and this is where you end up: a security camera, drawn by you.
