Step 1. Draw the oxygen tank mouthpiece
Let’s draw a diver’s mouthpiece and snorkel! First, draw the tube extending to the side of the diver’s head as shown. Next, draw the mouthpiece by creating two curved lines.
Step 2. Add a diver mask
Add a diver’s mask by drawing a bean shape over the eye area. Now, attach the strap of the diving mask by drawing a rectangle.
Step 3. Sketch the head and diving helmet
Outline the diver’s head by first drawing a U-shape for the lower part of the face. Next, draw a small C-shaped line for the ear. Then, from the ear, create a downward curve to draw the top of the head. Draw the diving helmet by creating a curved line.
Step 4. Attach the body
Attach the diver’s body by first drawing the torso with a long, curved line upward. Next, add the oxygen tank by drawing an oval with four curved lines inside. Now, draw the legs by forming lines as shown.
Step 5. Add arms and straps
Let’s add the diver’s arms by first attaching two rectangles to the torso. Now, draw a hand on each arm by creating a circle with three lines. Don’t forget to draw the thumb by making a small curve. Then, draw the straps attached to the body as shown.
Step 6. Draw the body and legs
Next, draw the complete diver’s body and legs as shown.
Step 7. Draw the diving fin
Begin drawing the diving fin by forming a triangle with a rounded bottom corner as shown. Next, draw the visible side of the diving fin by creating a curved line at the bottom. Then, draw three lines to add the small wings.
Step 8. Add bubbles
Add bubbles by drawing circles of different sizes.
Step 9. Complete the diver drawing
Complete the diver drawing by coloring the diving helmet and diving suit with a blue pencil. Next, shade the outside of the diving mask, tubes, oxygen tank, and diving fins with a yellow pencil. Shade the skin with a light yellow pencil. Don’t forget to color the inside of the diving mask with a dark blue pencil with white streaks. Now, color all the straps with an orange pen. Then, fill in the mouthpiece of the snorkel with a purple pencil. Finally, color the bubbles with a dark blue pencil.
