Learn How To Draw A Vulture Quickly

The neck is the first step today (00 min 06 sec). Use two identical curves for it like you see in the video. The round head follows (00 min 12 sec). You’ll need one big oval for it. The beak consists of two parts. The “pointy” one looks like a tiny dagger (00 min 24 sec). The sharp eye is next on the menu in this how to draw a Vulture tutorial.

Ok, we’re done with the head. Let’s move on to the bird’s body (00 min 40 sec). See that round “collar” around it? Put it in first. You’ll need to be accurate with the lines when it comes to the wing and the tail (00 min 47 sec). As you can see, I’ve added the super-long tail first, and only then added the wing. They look similar, by the way.

The right half of the body and the legs are the final steps in this how to draw a Vulture tutorial (01 min 04 sec). The legs are pretty much identical to each other (01 min 16 sec). Does your bird look like a hunched old man? That’s exactly what we need!

Before you learn how to draw A Vulture, did you know?

These scavengers have been around for ages and they prey on the corpses of dead animals. They come with bold heads, and the bare skin is vital for what the biologists and medics call thermoregulation. When it’s cold outside, these birds tuck in their heads to heat themselves up. And when it’s hot, the vultures stretch their necks out.

Overall, there are 16 species on planet Earth, and they all come in different shapes, sizes, and color combinations. Today, 9 of those species are critically endangered, while the rest are also in the danger zone. So, even though they have a bad reputation among the humans, it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t do something to help them. 

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.
