| How to draw a dwarf warrior |
PRINTABLE NOTES
This Dwarf is not hard to draw, and if you keep adding little touches, it can be a cool picture. Being a fantasy dwarf, if you make any mistakes, no one can tell because that is maybe how it is supposed to be
I start with an outline of the Dwarf. Since he is a fantasy, you don't have to worry about proper body proportions and dimensions. The proportions for a dwarf are different; using the head as a measure, the Dwarf stands about four heads tall. I use blocky squares to create an outline of the body and then go over them to develop the drawing.
The head is larger than usual, but the eyes are still halfway between the top of the head and the chin. I draw a faint line down the center of the face to keep everything in the right places. The eyebrows are bushy on the top and smooth underneath. I gave him white eyebrows because I thought he was getting too dark.
The nose is pudgy; I draw it as three circles, one big in the center and two smaller ones on the sides, then I shade them until everything looks right.
The mouth is easy since his big mustache covers the upper lip. I make the lower lip by drawing two circles, one next to the other, then connect them with a wavy upper curved line, then I shade underneath it.
He is an older dwarf, and I gave him wrinkles around the eyes. The eyes are large because I think dwarfs live in mines, so they need big eyes. Start with the circles and then draw the eyelids over them.
You may need to practice the hands on a separate paper and even trace them onto the final project. The hands are really a few short lines. Don't forget to put the shiny spot in early, so you don't color over it.
I gave him a wooden shield and a battle-ax, but you can add different props like a sword or lance or club or a cooking pot. He is a warrior, so I put a few dents in his helmet.
Don't make the boots too black; use gray for most of it and add a few touches of black for the shape.
Draw the fur lightly using the pencil to make swift sweeps out and away from the top of the boots; as you sweep the pencil out and away, lift it up, so the line gets thinner as it moves.
I did an illustration where I put my Dwarf in a forest world, but you can create your own world, maybe a cave or volcano or pub; it is up to you. Have fun.

| Watercolor painting of a Warrior Dwarf |
I did this illustration in watercolor. It took about three hours, and I really enjoyed painting it. The only problem was that my son says it is not a dwarf, but it is a lawn gnome.
