How to Draw a Fox

ধাপ ধাপে

1. পদক্ষেপ 1

   ঝুড়ির মাথার বড় বৃত্তে গিয়ে ঠেকাও।

   Everything else gets measured against this, so draw it in one motion rather than in short careful passes. A slightly lopsided shape drawn confidently is more use than a perfect one built out of twelve nervous strokes, because you can correct a shape and you cannot un-see a hesitant line.

   সাবধানে Drawing it small to leave room for detail. The big shape is most of the drawing - use the space.

   চেক It should fill most of your page, with a margin all round.

2. পদক্ষেপ 2

   দুইটি কেন্দ্রীয় রেখাকে আধা- আধা যোগ করো ।

   These are the rulers for everything that follows. Without them the two halves of the fox drift apart by a few millimetres at a time and you do not notice until it is finished and subtly wrong. Press lightly - they come off at the end.

   সাবধানে Skipping them because it looks symmetrical already. It will not be by the time you are done.

   চেক They should cross at the middle of the shape you just drew.

3. পদক্ষেপ 3

   মুখের অংশটিকে লম্বা ও সংকীর্ণ করে আঁকো ।

   This is the shape that says fox rather than dog. It comes off the lower half of the circle and it is longer and thinner than feels right - compare its length to the head circle rather than guessing, and it should be about half as long as the head is wide.

   সাবধানে A short, wide muzzle, which reads as a puppy.

   চেক The muzzle should be about half the head's width in length.

4. পদক্ষেপ 4

   প্রথম কানের আকৃতি আঁকো: একটি লম্বা ত্রিভুজ, বাইরে দিকে ঝুঁকে আছে।

   Fox ears are big - roughly as tall as half the head circle - and the outer edge curves in slightly rather than running dead straight. Set the angle deliberately, because the two ears must agree.

   সাবধানে Making the ears too small and too upright.

   চেক The ear should be about half the height of the head circle.

5. পদক্ষেপ 5

   প্রথম কানের সাথে মিল রেখে দ্বিতীয় কানের আকৃতি আঁকো ।

   Compare it to the one you just drew rather than to your idea of a ear: same size, same angle, same distance from the centre. This is the comparison habit that fixes proportion everywhere, and a pair is the easiest place to practise it because the error is obvious once you look for it.

   সাবধানে Making the second ear smaller - it usually happens because your hand is more cramped on that side.

   চেক Both should sit the same distance from the centre line.

6. পদক্ষেপ 6

   প্রত্যেকটির ভেতরে ছোট ত্রিভুজ হিসেবে অন্তঃকণ্ঠ যোগ করো ।

   Set in from the edges and slightly lower than the outer point. This is where the dark goes later, and it is what makes an ear read as a cup rather than as a flat shape stuck to the head.

   সাবধানে Inner triangles that touch the outer edges, which flattens the ear.

   চেক There should be a visible margin all round each inner triangle.

7. পদক্ষেপ 7

   চোখকে অনুভূমিক কেন্দ্রীয় রেখায় রাখো।

   Fox eyes are almond-shaped and angled - the outer corner sits higher than the inner one, which is what gives a fox its sharp expression. Leave a full eye's width between them.

   সাবধানে Round eyes set level, which looks startled rather than alert.

   চেক You should be able to fit one more eye between the two.

8. পদক্ষেপ 8

   মুখের শেষে নাক যোগ করো আর মুখের দিকে একটা লাইন আনো।

   A small rounded triangle, and it points down. The line from the nose back along the muzzle is what separates the top of the snout from the jaw, and without it the muzzle reads as a solid wedge.

   সাবধানে A large round nose, which pulls the drawing back toward a dog.

   চেক The nose should be small relative to the muzzle.

9. পদক্ষেপ 9

   শরীরকে মাথার নিচে একটি গোলাকার ত্রিভুজ হিসেবে আঁকো ।

   A sitting fox is essentially a wide-based triangle with the head on top. Overlap it with the head circle rather than butting them together - the overlap is what makes the head sit in front of the chest.

   সাবধানে Placing the body directly under the head with no overlap, which reads as two stacked shapes.

   চেক The body outline should pass behind the head.

10. পদক্ষেপ 10

    লেজকে একটি লম্বা মোটা বক্ররেখার মত আঁকো, যা আপনার আশাকৃত চেয়ে বড় হবে ।

    This is the shape most people undersize. A fox tail is about as long as the body and roughly a third as thick, and it curls round the base of the body rather than sticking out behind. Draw its outline as two curves, not one.

    সাবধানে A thin tail, which loses the whole silhouette.

    চেক The tail should be at least a third as thick as the body is wide.

11. পদক্ষেপ 11

    সাদা পেট এবং সাদা লেজ চিহ্নিত করুন।

    These are the two shapes that make a fox recognisable without colour. They are areas you leave alone, not areas you draw - deciding now where the paper stays white is what stops you shading over them in the next step.

    সাবধানে Shading the whole fox evenly and then trying to erase the white back in.

    চেক You should have two clearly reserved light shapes.

12. পদক্ষেপ 12

    কান, পা এবং মুখের উপরের অংশের ছায়া দেন।

    A fox's dark points are its ear tips, its lower legs and the very tip of its muzzle. Get real contrast between those and the white chest - a fox in a narrow band of grey looks like a stuffed toy.

    সাবধানে Being timid, so the darks and the whites end up only slightly different.

    চেক The ear tips should be clearly the darkest part of the drawing.

13. পদক্ষেপ 13

    কিছু চুল আর বুকের উপর কিছু পালকের প্রস্তাব যোগ করো।

    Detail is suggested, never itemised. A handful of marks in the right places lets the eye fill in the rest, and drawing every one flattens the drawing into texture. Put them where they matter and stop early.

    সাবধানে Adding detail evenly all over, which removes the contrast between busy areas and quiet ones.

    চেক Step back. You should still read the big shape first, detail second.

14. পদক্ষেপ 14

    যে লাইনগুলো আপনি ধরে রাখতে চান, সেগুলোর উপরে যান, এবং গাইড হারিয়ে ফেলুন।

    This is the step that turns a construction drawing into a finished one, and it is the one most people skip. Press harder on the outline and the features; leave the small stuff light. That difference in weight is what makes a drawing look deliberate rather than traced, and it costs thirty seconds.

    সাবধানে Going over everything at the same weight, which flattens the drawing back out.

    চেক The outline should be clearly darker than the smallest details.
