Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below
You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1:
First, draw the back of the crane. Draw a line that slopes down and to the right.
Step 2:
Draw the wings starting from the end of the back. Cranes have very large and wide wings that help them swim and fly very quickly.
Step 3:
At the end of the crane’s wings is the tail. The tail is short and pointed, like a triangle.
Step 4:
Now let’s draw the belly. Make a long curved line just to the left of the wing.
Step 5:
Next draw the crane’s head. First draw the neck, long and curved; then make an oval for the face and a long triangle with a line in the middle for the beak.
Step 6:
Now draw the eyes and feathers on the crane’s head. If you need help, just draw a series of straight lines going away from the top of the head.
Step 7:
After the feathering is done, draw the front legs. The crane’s knee is much higher than your knee! Also, make sure to draw four toes in the front and one in the back.
Step 8:
Your final step is to draw the second leg. Cranes have long slender legs that help them run and move quickly.
