Introduction
Are You ready to Create a super awesome drawing that combines emojis and monsters? In this tutorial, we will Show you step-by-step how to fold and draw an emoji that transforms into a monster when you open it up. All you need are a few simple supplies and you'll be able to impress your friends with this cool folding surprise. So let's get started and let your creativity run wild!
Supplies Needed
Before we begin, let's Gather the supplies you'll need for this drawing project. You will need:
- Marker
- Paper
- Bowl (optional, for drawing the circle)
Folding the Paper
To start, we need to fold our paper in half. Take the top edge and line it up with the bottom edge. Once aligned, crease the paper down the middle and then out to the corners. This will create a perfect center fold for our drawing.
Next, take the top flap of the folded paper and line it up with the top edge. Crease it down again to create a smaller folded section. Flip the paper over and repeat this step with the other flap. The final fold is just a guide fold, so flatten out the flap to complete the folding process.
Tracing the Emoji Circle
Now that our paper is folded, it's time to draw the circle of the emoji. If you have a bowl or a circular object, you can use it as a template to draw a perfect circle. Place the bowl upside down on the paper and Align it so that it fits on the top and bottom edges. Use your non-dominant HAND to hold the bowl in place, and with your marker, Trace around the edge of the bowl to create a circle. If you don't have a template, you can also try drawing a circle freehand.
Drawing the Face
Once we have our circle drawn, it's time to add the face to our emoji. Start by drawing a circle on the left side of the emoji for the left eye. Then, draw an oval on the right side of the emoji for the other eye. These will serve as the basic shapes for the eyes.
Next, let's add the eyebrows. Start above the left eye and draw a curved line that goes up and then back down. Make the eyebrow thicker by drawing another line that matches the first one but has a point at the end. Repeat this step for the right eye, making sure to match the Shape and thickness of the eyebrows.
Now it's time to draw the mouth. Start on the left side of the face and draw a wide, open mouth shape. You can turn your paper sideways to make it easier to draw. Feel free to make the mouth as wide as you like, as this will determine the width of the monster's mouth when it's open. Add another horizontal line on top of the fold to create the top part of the mouth that will be visible when the drawing is unfolded.
Opening the Paper
To add dimension to our drawing, let's open up the folded paper and flatten it out. This will make it easier to draw on. When you open up the paper, you will have half of the emoji on top and the other half at the bottom.
Adding Teeth
Now that the paper is open, we can add the teeth to our monster's mouth. Start by drawing a zigzag line from one side of the mouth to the other for the bottom teeth. You can make some teeth small and others larger for a scarier look. Once the bottom teeth are drawn, repeat the same step for the top teeth.
Drawing the Tongue
Next, let's draw a gross, split tongue for our monster. Start by drawing a curve that comes out of the teeth on the left side and curls around. Repeat this step for the right side of the tongue. Add a guide point in the middle of the tongue where it splits. Then, draw another curve from the guide point to the end of the tongue, making sure to create a point at the end.
Adding the Top Teeth
Now it's time to draw the top teeth. Follow the same process we used for the bottom teeth and draw a zigzag line from one side of the mouth to the other. Make sure the top teeth align with the bottom teeth for a balanced look.
Drawing the Sides of the Mouth
To add more Detail to our monster's mouth, let's draw the sides. Start at the top of the mouth and draw a bumpy line that comes down on each side, overlapping behind the tongue. Connect the line to the bottom of the emoji to complete the sides of the mouth. You can also choose to draw a straight line if you prefer a simpler look.
Adding the Inside of the Mouth
Now it's time to draw the inside of the mouth. Draw bumpy lines going in one direction on one side of the mouth and in the opposite direction on the other side. These bumps add texture and make the mouth look more realistic. Feel free to get creative with the placement and size of the bumps.
Adding the Back of the Mouth
For the final touch, let's draw the back of the mouth or the throat. Draw the shape of a letter "U" at the back of the mouth, connecting it to the tooth and tongue. This adds depth to the drawing and makes it look more interesting. Feel free to draw behind the tooth for an even cooler effect.
Coloring the Emoji Monster
Now that our drawing is complete, it's time to add some color. Get your markers or coloring supplies ready and let your imagination run wild. You can add shading, spots to the tongue, or even additional details like bat wings to make your emoji monster unique. Have fun and experiment with different color combinations to bring your drawing to life.
