How to Draw Thunderbird

Simple steps to draw thunderbird, based on what works in the examples above.

  1. 1 Start with the biggest, easiest shape in the prompt and keep it centered.
  2. 2 Add beak and wings early — these are the features that make a thunderbird recognizable.
  3. 3 Add two unmistakable clues that make the subject different from nearby prompts.
  4. 4 Keep it simple at first. Do not chase detail before the basic idea is readable.
