How to draw a plague doctor step by step

Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below

You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below

Step 1

Start by using four curved lines to draw a curved rectangle. This will form the top of the plague doctor’s hat.

Step 2

Use a long, curved “S” shaped line to draw the brim of the hat. Notice how the top of the “S” meets the middle of the “S”, giving the brim a three-dimensional appearance.

Step 3

Use two long curved lines to sketch the bird-like plague mask. Allow the lines to meet at a point.
Draw a circle within a circle to represent eye opening; shade between the circles. Draw several curved lines running the length of the beak.

Step 4

Use curved lines to outline the back of the head and the scarf around the neck.
Draw curved lines from the back of the mask to the back of the head, indicating the tape used to hold the mask in place. Draw curved lines along the scarf, forming folds in the material.

Step 5

Use a series of overlapping curved lines to draw the arm of the plague doctor’s robe. Overlap shows folds in the fabric due to the presence of multiple materials.
At the bottom of the arm, use curved lines to enclose the shape of the hand and the curved rectangular outline of an open book.

Step 6

Use two overlapping curved lines to draw the top of the garment. Draw the buttons using small circles.

Step 7

Sketch the torso and arms using overlapping curved lines. Again, note the folds in the material. Use a curved line to differentiate the belt. Draw vertical lines across it to form the belt buckle.
Sketch the hand and fingers using curved lines. Then, place two partial circles underneath the hand, forming the handle of the lantern.
Draw the body of the lantern using a series of rounded rectangles, the center sphere of the lantern being the largest.
Then, draw pairs of curved lines connecting the top and bottom of the lantern.

Step 8

Use a long curved line to outline the skirt of the plague doctor’s gown. Don’t forget to draw the other side of the belt behind the arm. Draw long curved lines along the length of the skirt.
Use curved lines to enclose the irregular shape of the shoes, and draw short lines across their tops to indicate buckles or laces.

Step 9

Use small lines to add detail to the plague doctor’s outfit.
