Materials Needed

Before we begin, here are the materials you will need:

Step by Step Guide

Step 1: Sketch the Basic Shapes

Start by drawing a circle for the crab’s head and a smaller circle for its body. Draw two lines connecting the two circles to create the crab’s thorax. Sketch two small circles for the eyes and two long lines for the claws.

Next, draw the crab’s legs by sketching three lines on each side of the crab’s thorax. These lines will serve as the crab’s legs. Lastly, draw two lines at the bottom of the crab’s body for its tail.

Step 2: Add Details to the Crab’s Body

Now, you can add details to the crab’s body. Draw two smaller circles inside the crab’s eyes for the pupils. Sketch two triangles attached to the top of the crab’s head for its antennae. Then, on each side of its head, draw three lines for its mouthparts or mandibles. Next, draw patterns on the crab’s body. You can use different shapes such as triangles, circles, or squares, to create texture.

Step 3: Outline Your Drawing with a Pen

When you have sketched the basic shapes, and added the crab’s details, use a pen to outline your drawing. Thicken the lines of the crab’s body and legs, and add more contrast to the parts that need emphasis, such as the eyes and claws. Erase the pencil marks once you have completed the outlining.

Step 4: Color Your Drawing

The final step is to add color to your crab drawing. You can use colored pencils, markers or paint. Color the crab’s body and legs, and don’t forget to add shading to create depth. You can also color the details such as its eyes, claws, and antennae.
