How To Draw A Snail with this how-to video and step-by-step drawing instructions. Easy animals to draw for beginners and kids.
Please see the drawing tutorial in the video below
You can refer to the simple step-by-step drawing guide below
Step 1
For the first step of the tutorial on how to draw a snail, we will start small! We’ll start by drawing two small stalks on top of the snail’s head.
These are called upper tentacles and have snail eyes at the end. You can draw these tentacles using some curved lines with small round knobs at the end of them.
They will then be connected by another very small curve between the tentacles.
Finally, you can add a little dot on the knob on each tentacle.
Step 2
Next, draw the head of the snail
We will continue to add the top of your snail drawing in this next step.
All you need to do for this step is draw some downward curves from the tentacles that you drew in the first step.
You can then add two thick dotted lines at the ends for the lower tentacles of the snail’s face.
Step 3
Now draw your snail’s legs
The flat base of the snail is called the leg, and that’s what we’ll be drawing in this part of the how to draw a snail tutorial.
To do this, simply extend the line from the front of the face into a small protrusion at the front of the foot.
Then, extend back in a wavy line until you have the base of the snail. It will then fold on its own to form the instep.
Step 4
Next, draw the outline of the shell
Without a shell, a snail would be a slug, so we’ll start adding one to your snail drawing in this next section.
The snail shell will be drawn with a large and round line on the back of the snail. It will also have a slight bump on the left side of the bottom of the case.
The reference image will guide you on how it will be shaped as you draw.
Step 5
Now draw a curved line inside the shell
We’ll start building the inner swirling shape of the shell in this step of the how to draw a snail tutorial.
