Step-by-step instruction - How to draw the Paperwarrior

One thing is missing now at the drawing of the glass: the light reflections.

The light reflections must be either planned from the beginning and accordingly the bright areas have to stay free of colour - however this is very difficult. Or the light reflections are made afterwards. This can be done with a hard eraser pen. Simply remove the colour at the spot where a light reflexion should be placed and than draw over it with a white crayon. If you want to have the reflexion even brighter you can enhance the effect with a brush and white paint.

I have drawn the light reflexion I at the top of the glass und up to the edge of the tea in the glass. I made a further reflection along the glass in vertical direction.

The lemon still misses. You can draw it with a yellow and a bright orange crayon. The structures can be made with an orange and brown crayon. If necessary you can free the white areas of colour residues with the eraser pen.

At last a light reflection is made with the eraser pen on top of the gorilla arm. This reflexion let the surface appear slick.

Then the drawing is finished. I hope you liked the tutorial and it will help you learning to draw with crayons.
