How to Draw a Fairy Tattoo, Step by Step, Tattoos, Pop Culture, FREE Online Drawing Tutorial, Added by Dawn, October 25, 2008, 8:44:43 am

Okay are you ready for your first step lesson? Good then lets begin. You will start by drawing a circle for her face and then another shape for her chin or jaw. Next add some facial guidelines and proceed onto drawing out the lining shape for her upper body or torso. Next draw a narrow oval shape for her folded thigh and then add the guidelines for the bottom half of her leg, arm and wing. Make sure you also draw the three circle for her shoulder and arm as well as the hoove like shape for the hand.

STEP 2.

So how was your first step, easy right? Since your first step wasn't so bad let's tackle step two. Start by adding the fairy wing design lines as you see here and then draw out the shape of her breast. You will then start drawing out the shape of her arm and leg, as well as draw a curved line for her arched back and buttocks. Once that is complete you can add some finger lines on her hand and then the shape of her foot.

STEP 3.

Now here we are already on step three. What you will do first here is first switch from drawing to sketching. You will sketch out the right side of her hair lining first and then add the lines for her eye, nose and top lip. Add some detailing line designs to the tips of her fairy wings and then sketch the wing design on the bottom part of her wing. Now you will start adding shape to her arm and then her calf or lower leg. Finish the lining of her fingers and then add the curve of her foot and some finger lines on the left hand covering her breast.

STEP 4.

See she is coming out beautiful right? I know. Start this step by sketching the flowing shape of her hair on the left side and then add some bangs. You will then draw out her eye, eyebrow and the rest of her mouth (which is slightly open) and then add some hair that is under her left hand. Give this fairy some finger nails and toes and then thicken the design lines on her wing as seen here.

STEP 5.

Guess what step you are on? Yup, your last drawing step. This is where you start cramming ion the finishing touches to your work. Start by drawing and then coloring in the cyan lines under her eyes and then sketch out an elven looking ear. Detail the ear and then add some separate strands of hair as well as wrinkle lines that are coming out from the wing. Finish the design pattern as you see here and make sure you make the lines look loose and then give this pretty fairy some toe nails. Erase all the guidelines and shapes that you drew in step one and then proceed to the next step.

STEP 6.

When you are done your sketch should come out looking like the one you see here. As you can see this is my original sketch of her and she even looks good in this form. I hope you liked this tutorial on how to draw a fairy tattoo step by step. Maybe you can use her for future ink sessions. I will be back with more drawing fun in a bit so hang around okay.

Awesome!
Artist CommentsThis next tutorial is probably going on my favorites list along with the angel I submitted in the Tattoo art category because I think this new sketch came out so beautiful. What I am going to do for you now is show you how to draw a fairy tattoo step by step. This girl has a little bit of all the things men look for in a girl. She is sexy, pretty, tanned, has long hair, luscious lips, a voluptuous body, and she also has a bit of Goth in her as you can see by her eyes. I wanted to draw a really nice fairy that is both edgy, pretty and Gothic at the same time and this is what I came up with. I’m calling her Ivoy because she is a fairy that belongs to the earth and all its living foliage. I absolutely love fairies, I think that they are so beautiful and mysterious even the male ones. When I was doing a rough sketch on her, I wanted Ivoy to be sitting in an awesome position to make her look innocent and bad at the same time. The wicked look that she has was totally unplanned because at first I was going to have a tear fall from her eye. When I was erasing the lines, the smudged pencil left a cyan like type lining on her cheek which looked pretty cool. So what did I do? Yup, I enhanced it to the fullest. When the finished rough sketch was done I couldn’t believe what I just created. I mean she came out absolutely perfect in every way. The concept to put cloths on her body crossed my mind but in the end I left her body nude because I wanted to give her a natural and seductive look. Not only that but, she looks better with no clothes on anyway, trust me. I have been having a great deal of fun drawing new and exciting tattoo art designs. I guess I've been getting into it more because when I’m not working I have been spending time at my cousins tattoo parlor. Just seeing how he is able to use a tattoo gun like that on the skin of men and woman like it’s his canvas is amazing. This fairy was drawn out of inspiration because of the type of work my cousin does. I will show you how to draw a fairy tattoo step by step. The instructions are easy to read and the steps are simple to follow. I will be back with some more cool drawing lessons in a bit so stay tuned y’all there is more to come.
