Here is an easy step-by-step guide to draw a turkey:
- Start by drawing a rounded, modified egg shape for the turkey's body.
- Draw a fan shape at the back of the body to represent the turkey’s wide tail.
- Add the head and neck on top of the body shape; the neck goes down into the body.
- Add details like the beak, the top part of the legs, wing, and divide the tail into feathers. Create scallops at the bottom of the neck.
- Draw the wattle hanging over the beak, and add details to the wing and tail. Add a dot for the eye.
- Sketch the feet lightly as they can be difficult; erase and refine them until they look good.
This approach breaks the turkey into simple shapes and progressively adds details, making it easy to follow for beginners.
Another simple method:
- Draw an inverted U for the head.
- Add a round shape under the head for the body, similar to a pear.
- Draw eyes, beak, and wings.
- Create tail feathers by drawing curves connected by arches.
- Finally, add feet and color your drawing.
