In this tutorial I will try to explain how to draw naturalistic buds using standard graphics. Bumps like these:
Cedar cones
We need:
1. Paper.
2.Simple pencils. Hard soft (TM) and very soft.
3. Feathering (how to do it, described below)
4. The softest eraser you can find.
To begin with, I drew on separate sheets of paper a lot of light sketches of cones in different positions in space, when I decided on the desired ones, I simply transferred their contours to a clean copy and made another copy for the future (if you ever want to make it in color, you can use).
Note that I personally try to apply shading from the upper left corner to the lower right - there is no such thing as dirt and rubbing, hands always remain clean. In this work, from the left cones and needles, through the middle to the right.
It is very important to initially convey the direction of the tunga by the contours (these are the scales of the cedar cones in which the nuts sit). Along the axis of the cones, they are turned towards us, and towards the edges they are already turned sideways. There are also nuances at the base of the cones, where they seem to tip at the viewer, and at the very end the cones narrow, close into a pyramid.
Let's start drawing. Initially, we use a TM pencil, because we need a medium tone and can be erased if anything. While we will work in a plane, outlining the primary chiaroscuro, all with one sharp pencil.
Personally, I am a supporter of a clean stroke, a neatly applied stroke, clearly directed - this is not only an artistic tool, but also an aesthetic pleasure for the viewer. Speaking of artistic means ... when drawing a tunga, we show the direction of growth of each scale with a stroke direction. It is round and in the middle it is divided in half by nature, so all this must be shown with a stroke. The pencil should be like a needle.
How to show the volume. When the primary shading is applied in the plane, you can outline the volume. This is done with a very soft pencil. The scales farthest from the viewer on this bump are those at the base, so they should be the darkest. We outline this with short strokes FROM the lightest adjacent place. Contrast is a means of volume.
We finish the initial shading all over the bump.
To round off the entire bump, you need to apply black strokes from the edges less and less towards the middle. Having finished this work, darken already with a TM pencil the joints of the scales, which go under the higher ones (circled in the figure) and make corrections throughout the bump.
The most recent work is to apply the "pumppies" to the tips of the scales.
The needles of cedars, especially adults, are distinguished by the fact that they do not stick out, but hang in cascades, for which you always want to stroke the branches, they are heavy, but elastic.
We outline its position on the left with a hard-soft pencil, filling in the very depths with tone.
Apply black for the depths.
We sharpen the tips.
We repeat all the same above.
Where it is necessary to make a smooth transition or even tone, apply "shading". This is a cone made of a piece of paper, twisted and secured with tape. You cannot rub graphite with your finger, except for smearing and dirt it will do nothing. Lightly touching the tip of the cone to the hatch layer, gently scratch it.
Special effects. This is what I call the use of an eraser not for erasing extraneous lines, but the deliberate use of its quality to tear off graphite from the surface with a simple touch. In other words, the process of bleaching. You can also use a nag for this.
We take the softest eraser we have, cut off a part from it to make it sharp, well, or almost sharp. And by typing, we remove the graphite from the drawing where it is necessary to lighten. (I circled these places in the figure) A soft eraser pulls out the graphite from the surface of the paper. Also, with a sharp edge, we pass along the lightest needles.
In all kindergartens and schools, every year they are asked to make products with their own hands. This is perhaps the most common parenting puzzle.
And you know, it's not even bad at all.
We have a lot of natural material, we need to add a little imagination.
And most importantly, your whole family will immerse yourself in the enchanting world of creativity.
Today, we will look at a natural resource - cones.
It is used not only in school crafts, but also for the interior, Hand-Made designers and others.
Below are photos and a detailed diagram of several cone crafts.
What crafts from cones can be made by hand
Almost everyone will be able to make a craft from real pine and spruce cones, the main thing is desire and a little imagination.
Using this amazing natural resource you can do:
- Decor elements that will bring a stunning forest smell and a cozy atmosphere into your home.
- Christmas crafts: holiday wreath, candlestick, Christmas tree, garland, Christmas ball and more.
- Interesting crafts of funny animals with children.
Festive wreath
You can convey the New Year's mood to guests right from the door. For the design of the New Year's wreath, we will use:
- Cardboard
- Spruce or pine branches
- Cones
- Satin ribbon
- Not real snow
- Paint
- Glue gun
- Decorations for decoration, optional.
Many materials are used in the manufacture of the base.
For example: plastic, cardboard, twigs, bending wire, and even newspapers.
We settled on cardboard, it is quite simple and convenient to work with.
Cut out the diameter of the circle that we need on the cardboard. Next, we fix the branches and cones, forming a symmetrical circle.
After the cones are glued, we continue to decorate our wreath. We take a can of artificial snow and spray the edges of the cones.
If you couldn't find snow, you can paint the scales with white or silver paint.
We tie it with a satin ribbon, choose the color yourself.
Note!
For a more interesting and rich wreath, you can add additional decorative elements: red beads, acorns, nuts, flowers.
Turn on your imagination and you will succeed!
Christmas garland
Fast and easy craft to make.
The material you need:
- bumps
- glue gun
- rope
- paint
- sparkles
Step-by-step instructions for crafts:
- We prepare the cones in advance, paint them with paint. The paint can be chosen in different colors. Or make it in one color that suits your interior design. You can also use sparkles for the "dressiness" of the product.
- Take the rope and mark the distance between the cones.
- We leave 10-15 cm from the edges in order to have a place to attach the garland.
- Using a glue gun, attach the bumps to the rope. We glue it along the entire length.
- We are waiting for the glue to dry. And Voila! The New Year's garland is ready.
Note!
For kids and schoolchildren, it will be easy to make crafts from cones and plasticine of funny animals: Mishutka, Hedgehog, Squirrel, Owl, etc.
Mishutka
We will use:
- Cones different types (pine, spruce, open, closed)
- Scissors
- Plasticine
Step-by-step instructions for making crafts:
Body. From the collected material, select an elongated pine cone. Apply glue to the connecting parts of the scales. We connect the parts so that the scales would fix each other.
Paws. Choose 2 larger bumps on the lower legs, and 2 smaller ones on the upper ones. We glue the parts with the body, watch out for symmetry.
Head. We make the head from open pine cones. They perfectly convey the fluffiness of a bear's coat. We attach with glue to the base.
Note!
Ears, eyes and nose. It can be made from plasticine, and the tip of the nose, for example, from black peppercorns.
If you want to surprise everyone around you, then you can make a big bear. You choose the size of the bear, the main thing is to collect the required number of cones.
You can make the base - the Mishutka frame from polyurethane foam, polystyrene or papier-mâché. An excellent solution for the stability of the product would be to attach something heavy to the bottom.
We stick around the frame with cones, and make the ears and muzzle from plasticine or pompons.
Hedgehog
The simplest baby cone craft. To make it, you need only two materials:
- Cones
- Plasticine
Step-by-step description:
Body. The cone itself is well suited for the base of the craft. If you look closely and rotate correctly, the scales look like hedgehog needles.
Muzzle. Here we have some plasticine. We make an oblong muzzle from it. And fix it on the craft.
Eyes, nose, paws, ears. We also use plasticine, only of a different color.
As you can see, there is nothing complicated, this cone craft is suitable for kindergarten.
Experiment! Decorate your home with interesting designs that you have prepared yourself. Do not forget about the children, they will also be interested in taking part in the creation of a small miracle.

Master Class
"We draw a spruce branch simple pencil»
Teacher: Smalchenko Antonina Aleksandrovna
2014
The drawing master class is intended for schoolchildren ... The drawing can be used for interior decoration, as a gift.
Goal:
drawing a spruce branch with a simple pencil.
Tasks:
-to teach in stages to draw a spruce branch with a simple pencil;
-develop creativity;
-to cultivate accuracy in work.
Preparation for drawing:
Right choice in this case it is very important, the quality of the drawings depends on it.
In order to start drawing, we need:
pencils B, 2B, 4B and 6B, dyne hard pencil H or 2H.
a4 paper - must be thick enough not to wrinkle in the process
eraser.
Class time : 15-25 min.
A drawing is an image made by an artist by hand using such graphic means as a line, contour, stroke, point, spot, as well as their various combinations and combinations.
PENCIL. (Türkic kara - black, tas or das - stone) - a tool and material for drawing. It looks like a rod made of pressed coal, lead, graphite, dry paint, enclosed for convenience in a wooden or metal frame.
Nothing is more associated with the New Year than a tree. Many people from all over the world really like to decorate it with toys, tinsel, rain, various garlands, etc.
And who doesn't want to have on his desk a drawing of a forest tree with his own hand?
So let's not waste time, but let's see how to draw a spruce branch with a pencil:
Drawing a branch is divided into five stages:
1)
STEP ONE
: compositional placement in foliage.
2) STAGE TWO : building a general form of nature
3)
STAGE THREE
: Linear drawing, outline refinement. We start drawing needles
4)
STAGE FOUR
5) STEP FIVE : Drawing details.
Generalization of the figure. Working out the shadows
Application.
1.
Getting out for a walk in the forest, we are faced with the beauty of majestic fir trees and, of course, a pine cone will be in our hands. Small, but interesting in its structure, it becomes an interesting attribute for creative crafts. Those who like to make their own exposition from natural materials are attracted by cones for making animals, birds and fairy-tale characters. If you are reading this article, you need a lesson on drawing a pine cone. How to draw a fir cone in stages?
We draw step by step
For beginners in drawing, in order to reproduce the drawing, we offer a drawing technique using circles and ovals. Such a beginning is easily perceived and, by connecting the rounded parts with smooth lines, we get a real character. The spruce cone is no exception. To sketch a drawing, you need a simple pencil:
Stage 1. The base of the cone will be an elongated oval, inside which we will place the scales. Carefully draw an oval. The oval should be symmetrical.
Stage 2. At the top of the oval (find the top center point), draw a small arc inside, connecting the side parts of the oval. The scales have begun. The rest will move away from the first scale.
Stage 3. Draw the scales neatly, tightly so that they are extremely uniform. Bring the sides slightly beyond the contours of the oval. Looking at the bump, we see that its coating is wavy.
Stage 4. We continue to draw semicircles. Towards the center we increase the size of the plates, slightly widening the space between them. The cone blooms in the same way as a flower bud, and it is not entirely correct to depict the scales in one range. There is nothing ideal in nature. The scales in the center of the cone are different in size. Try to distribute them slightly unevenly (one more, the other a little smaller).
Stage 5. Going down to the bottom of the cone, we reduce and compact the scales in size. At the very bottom of the plate, depict very small and slightly pointed. Do not move your pencil outside the oval.
Having finished sketching the scaly plates, look at the picture carefully. What catches your eye? Sure! A bump without a branch is an incomplete drawing. How to draw a spruce branch?
Before starting to draw a branch, erase unnecessary lines on the cone, reinforce the contours of the scales with thin lines from below.
Step 6: Distribute a slightly curved line (branch skeleton) over the bump. Draw the length as you wish. Add one or two side lines to the skeleton. Just remember - the length should be in harmony with the side branches.
Stage 7. We fluff up the depicted branch. Gently, on both sides, in random order, add thin needles at a moderate distance from each other. Draw the slope of the needles to one side. If the branch seems not fluffy enough, add needles.
The last stage of our creative lesson is coloring. It is impossible not to notice that the scales of the cone and the needles of the branch have different shades.
Choose a convenient material for coloring. It could be colored pencils watercolor paints, colored crayons. We begin to decorate the cone. We shade the scales with several tones of brown. The plate is lighter below. We paint the spruce branch with light brown paint, and the needles in dark green color... If you find it difficult to imagine shades, take a ready-made drawing for the base and take a closer look at the color overflows.
Have fun drawing!
This lesson fell into the category of lungs, which means that in theory even a small child can repeat it. Naturally, parents can also help small children draw a pine cone. And if you consider yourself a more advanced artist, then I can recommend the lesson "" - it will require you to be more diligent, although it will be no less interesting.
What is needed
In order to draw a bump, we may need:
- Paper. It is better to take medium-grained special paper: it will be much more pleasant for novice artists to draw on this one.
- Sharpened pencils. I advise you to take several degrees of hardness, each must be used for different purposes.
- Eraser.
- Shading wand. You can use plain paper rolled into a cone. Lego will rub off the shading, turning it into a monotone color.
- A little patience.
- Good mood.
Step by step lesson
Any objects are best depicted by looking at them live. This makes it much easier to draw a pine cone if you draw from life. Also, I advise you to study the subject of drawing well before starting to draw. This can get rid of many design mistakes. Look in Yandex.Pictures how it looks and imagine how it should work in order to bring maximum benefit.
By the way, besides this lesson, I advise you to pay attention to the lesson "". It will help you improve your skill or just give you a little pleasure.
Simple drawings are created using paths. It will be enough for you to repeat what, and only what is shown in the lesson, to get an acceptable result, but if you want to achieve something more, then try to imagine that. what you draw in the form of simple geometric bodies. Try to sketch not with outlines, but with rectangles, triangles and circles. After some time with the constant use of this technology, you will see that drawing becomes easier.
Tip: Sketch with as little thick strokes as possible. The thicker the strokes of the sketch, the more difficult it will be to erase them later.
The first step, more precisely zero, you always need to mark out a sheet of paper. This will give you an idea of \u200b\u200bexactly where the drawing will be. If you place the drawing on half of the sheet, you can use the other half for another drawing. Here is an example of centering a sheet:
There is also such a drawing of a pine cone, it has not yet opened to sow its seeds. Start drawing with an oval
now, we will draw such scales as those of a riba, as in the photo
now, erase the contour line so that the edges are bumpy
add in the picture on each scale, a drawing of a small oval, as in the photo
That's it, now you can paint with colored pencils
Now you know how to draw a pine cone and I hope you could repeat the lesson. Now you can pay attention to the lesson "" - it is just as interesting and exciting. Share this lesson with your friends on social media. networks.
