Coconut Crab Drawing Step by Step
Step 1
Let’s draw a Coconut Crab, one of the largest crabs. To draw the head, create a rounded rectangle with two circles on top for the eyes. Next, draw a small nose shape as shown and another small line below the curve.
Step 2
For the crab’s back, draw a large circle behind the head.
Step 3
To draw a beard, draw two long curved lines from the front of the head. Coconut crabs have a very good sense of smell so they can easily locate food.
Step 4
Draw the chelipad or leg first by creating several connecting bubbles until you reach the claw at the end. Add two small, pointed cones to make pliers.
Step 5
Now add the other front chelipad by drawing much larger ovals to make them connect together. Draw the one at the end with a large claw. Their claws are so strong that they can even break coconuts!
Step 6
Now draw the front leg by adding more bubble ovals along a straight line. Add a curve in the back for the far leg.
Step 7
Next, draw another leg, but this time, make the shapes a bit more rectangular. Don’t forget points!
Step 8
For the back legs, draw two smaller bubbles in the back.
