How to draw a Dolphin tutorial

Let`s learn how to draw a Dolphin.

You certainly know that dolphins, although live in water and are very similar to fish, yet are mammals. Scientists believe that animals such as whales and dolphins for the second time switched to aquatic life. And in the water, the most convenient form of the body is as in fish. Thank God there are still many different kinds of dolphins. And the first we draw a bottlenose dolphin.

The structure of the body is so simplified that I will not even encourage you to draw a scheme – the drawing itself will be like a scheme.

Well, draw the body, it is conical, or rather spindle-shaped:

During the swim the dolphin gracefully bends.

Now draw the “fins”.

The front are on the sides of the chest, on the back there is also a triangular fin. And still – tail, consisting of two blades, located horizontally, but not vertically, like in fish.

I don’t see much similarity of a dolphin nose with a bottle – just jaws extended forward. But the dolphin’s forehead is high and steep, it’s not for nothing that they are considered almost the most intelligent animals.

And now we will slightly color the picture.

So, you learned how to draw a swimming bottlenose dolphin.
