Before you learn how to draw A Scroll Or A Parchment, did you know?

If you love historical movies/TV shows about the Medieval Times, then you’ve probably noticed the majestic scrolls. They were used by our ancestors for writing down orders, maps, secret government plans, and other stuff.

Obviously, they are super outdated today and aren’t being used anymore. However, you’ll find both scrolls and parchments in certain libraries and museums that keep the legacy alive. In some remote convents, scrolls are still in wide use and gadgets are forbidden. Wouldn’t you want to visit a place like that for a couple of days?

Some Things To Keep In Mind…

These tutorials are only here to guide you. Your drawing does not need to look "identical" to mine.

Start with rough but light pencil strokes that you can work into the shapes you want.

Once you have your rough drawing completed, go over it in a darker stroke for your final drawing.

Add shading and/or color to complete if desired.

Using this technique you will be able to draw anything after some practice... even without following step-by-step tutorials.
