Helicopter Drawing

Why draw a Helicopter?

This tutorial is designed to help students learn how to draw a helicopter that is a bit fancier than just an oval with a tail, but is not a complicated 3D shape either. The fuselage is made by stacking a few simple shapes together, which when complete, looks like a pretty detailed helicopter.If your students are learning about transportation, here are a few fun facts to know about helicopters.• Helicopters are able to take off and landing vertically, hovering and flying in different directions.• The lift and thrust of helicopters are provided by spinning rotors, usually with two or more blades.• Helicopters typically have one main rotor and one smaller rotor in the tail which keeps the helicopter from spinning around.

Materials to draw a Helicopter

• Drawing Paper. This is the good stuff you can buy in bulk for a good price.
• Pencils. I like how this brand always makes nice dark lines.
• Black Marker. A permanent marker will give you a dark black color.
• Crayons. The larger packs are nice for more color choices.
• Note: All of the above are Amazon affiliate links.
