Chinese Dragon Drawing

This year the Lunar New Year falls on January 29th, and celebrations culminate with the Lantern Festival on February 12th. Students can use the tutorial below learn how to draw a Chinese dragon in one of its more classic forms. There are many ways to draw a dragon, some more complicated than others. This version has a body that is more like a snake, the feet with distinct claws, and spikes running down the entire back, and so on.The trick to drawing one is to figure out how to get some main shapes in place, and then add lots (and lots!) of detail. This tutorial should do the trick for those that really want to draw something that looks like the original, without getting frustrated with all those spikes and claws.
