Question

How do I color a Toothless drawing to make it more realistic?

Community Answer

Pick a point that the light is coming from, and then add your shadows and highlights according to that point. You can also add a subtle scale texture as well.

Question

How would I make toothless in a simpler and more adorable way?

Community Answer

Look at the pre-drawn ideas from the article and use them to come up with your own variation on Toothless' design. The cartoony version seems to match what you're asking for, so you can try practicing that first.

Question

How can I draw Toothless flying with Hiccup?

Community Answer

Try printing a picture of that and place a (not cardboard or anything thick) piece of paper over it. Start by tracing it and then gradually you should get the shape of the picture. Once this is in place, draw around it and color it. Then, practice drawing the designs freehand in the desired positions, now that you have the "feel" for their shapes.

Question

How can I color in the dragon when printing it?

Community Answer

Use an application that has some kind of coloring bucket fill option and choose what color you want to include in your drawing. You could also zoom in and carefully use your computer mouse to color small bits in yourself.

Question

How do I draw Toothless and Light Fury?

Community Answer

Use #1 above for Toothless, but use a reference picture (online images, the movie, or fan art) for Light Fury. I think they look the same, so maybe #1 for both, but add more female-ish details to Light Fury.

Question

How can I draw Toothless flying?

Community Answer

You can draw Toothless flying by drawing out his body in a smooth and straight way. Then, you can draw wings that spread out. You can do this by drawing the wings larger. Add details and you get a flying Toothless!

How do I draw the eyes and details better when drawing Toothless?

To draw the eyes better, you need to make them more walnut shaped. For the details, you can add rows of spikes and shade it in.
