How to Draw a Turkey for Kids
- Draw the head.
The turkey has a small head, so draw the small circle. But he has a powerful body that he has.
- Draw the eye and crest.
The eyes of birds are on the sides. We draw the turkey on the side, so there will be only one eye. Draw the eye just above the middle, and above it a curved line is the eyebrow. Turkeys are also famous for their crests. It is located at the top of the head.
- Draw the neck and the wattle.
First draw the neck of the turkey using two lines extending them from under the head. Detail the lower feather part of the neck with wavy lines. Then add the turkey wattle as shown in the example.
- Draw the body and beak.
Like all birds, a turkey has a beak. Draw it in the shape of a triangle in the middle of the face. Then shape the body of the turkey using a large oval shape.
- Draw the tail.
One of the most beautiful parts of a turkey is the tail. It consists entirely of wavy lines.
- Draw the wing.
These birds do not fly, but they have wings. To do this, first draw an arc in the middle of the body, and above it a wavy line. Also add puffiness to the tail, draw the smaller wavy line inside the tail.
- Draw the legs.
Turkeys run fast because they have long and powerful legs. See how this is done in our drawing of a turkey, and draw according to the example.
- Color the drawing.
The last step is to color in the turkey drawing using felt-tip pens and colored pencils.
