How to Draw a Wrestler
In this lesson I will show you how to draw a wrestler. If you complete this lesson, then once again practice drawing a human figure.
I bring to your attention a simple instruction on how to draw a wrestler. In the picture you see a man of strong build, who takes a fighting position. Pay attention to the proportions of the body, the upper torso is much wider than the lower. The wrestler has broad shoulders and short lower limbs.
Try to correctly portray the position of the body. The legs are widely spaced, so the wrestler takes a stable position. The wrestler’s hands are clenched into fists, and he is ready to start the fight at any moment.
I hope that you will enjoy this lesson and remember all the drawing steps so that in the future it will be easy to depict such an athlete if necessary. So grab all your art supplies and get started with the tutorial.
