How to draw a UFO with this how-to video and step-by-step drawing instructions. Simple drawing for kids and beginners.
Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below
You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1
For this tutorial on how to start drawing a UFO, we’ll start with the glass dome above it. This step should be a pretty easy one, as all it requires is a simple shape and a steady hand.
The shape will be a slightly flat oval, and as mentioned, this will be the dome for the UFO.
Once you’ve copied the shape as it appears in our reference image, you’re ready to go!
Step 2
Draw the body of the UFO spaceship
UFOs are often referred to as flying saucers, the common interpretation of which is that they are the same as the name.
We are using that flying saucer design for your UFO drawing and that is the aspect we will draw now.
To do this, simply add another flat oval below and around the dome.
However, this one will be even flatter than the previous one. You can also add a line along the base of the disc as shown in our reference picture.
Step 3
Now you can draw a part below the UFO
For this UFO drawing tutorial, we will add a small circular section below the UFO.
To do this, we will draw a thin half oval below the UFO. This can serve all sorts of functions, from serving as a scanner to a beam for kidnappings! What purpose do you think this item could serve?
Step 4
Next, draw some details on the UFO
Now that you have the basic structure of your UFO drawing, you can now start adding some smaller details.
For this part, we’ll draw some small, circular shapes onto the spaceship. These could be flashing lights if this UFO was soaring through the air!
Once you’ve drawn these little ovals, you can add a line in the center of each for a little more detail.
Step 5
Now you can add some final details to your UFO drawing
Before you add some out-of-this-world color to the final step of our UFO tutorial, you might end up with some final details and elements of your own.
For our tutorial, we added some lines going down from the UFO to suggest a beam was sent to the ground.
However, this is just a small but effective detail that you can add, and you are free to add any of your own!
Drawing something like a UFO always uses a lot of imagination, as we don’t know for sure what they look like!
That means you can add all sorts of different details and interesting additions.
For starters, you can draw an alien inside the dome to show what kind of creature will pilot this ship!
You can also paint some ray guns or ship parts to make it look more technologically advanced.
In addition to these details, you can also paint a beautiful background for it to show where this UFO is flying around! There are so many amazing options you can use and we can’t wait to see what you come up with!
Step 6
Complete your UFO drawing with some color
Now that you’ve finished this UFO drawing and added your own details and elements, you can now bring it to life even more by adding some amazing colors!
We mainly used blues, grays and yellows for our example image, but this is definitely an image you can imagine.
