How to Draw a UFO Beaming Up a Cow
Draw a UFO beaming up a cow 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: cow head.
Step 1: Cow head
A little left of the middle, draw a wide egg for the head. Draw a big oval nose across it.
Tip Leave lots of room above for the flying saucer.
Step 2: Ears and horns
Draw a leaf ear on each side of the head. Draw 2 small curved horns on top.
Step 3: Surprised face
Draw 2 big eyes with black dots looking up. Add 2 nostrils and a small round mouth.
Tip A little round mouth says: oh!
Step 4: Back and bottom
Start behind the ear. Draw along the back and round the bottom. Stop half way down the body.
Step 5: Dangling legs
Start under the nose. Draw a leg hanging down, then the tummy and a back leg. Stop at the bottom.
Tip The legs hang loose because the cow is floating.
Step 6: Far legs and hooves
Draw 2 more legs peeking out behind. Draw a short line across each leg for 4 hooves.
Step 7: Tail and patches
Draw a thin tail with a tuft on the end. Draw 2 round patches on the cow's side.
Step 8: Flying saucer
High above the cow, draw a long flat shape with a pointy end on each side.
Tip Make both halves match, like a lemon lying down.
Step 9: Dome, hatch and lights
Draw a round dome on top and a flat hatch below. Add 3 round lights along the saucer.
Step 10: Beam of light
Draw a grass line near the bottom. Draw 2 long straight lines from the hatch down to it, spreading wide.
Step 11: Yellow light
Colour the beam of light yellow, all around the cow. Colour the 3 lights yellow. Leave the cow white.
Step 12: Pink and blue
Colour the cow's big nose pink. Colour the dome of the saucer light blue.
Step 13: Green and grey
Colour the grass green to the bottom of the page. Colour the saucer and the 4 hooves grey.
Step 14: Black patches
Colour the 2 patches and the tail tuft black. Leave the horns white. Moo, up we go!
