How to draw star wars characters - R2D2 (part 2)
How to draw Star Wars characters - Always wanted to draw R2D2 from the Star Wars movies? This is your occasion to learn how.
Resourceful and spunky, the droid developed an adventurous personality during his many decades of operation. Inside of his cylindrical frame were many arms, sensors, and other tools that could be extended to fulfill various needs, such as slicing computers, extinguishing fires, projecting holograms, repairing starships, and flying.
How to draw Star Wars characters - building the legs
Divide the body-rectangle into three parts. The higher of these three sections will contain the hinges of the robo-legs.
These are built starting from a couple of elliptical shapes on each side as you can see here. The right one is self explanatory but the right one is more complicated because is partially covered by the body itself so be very careful with it.
From those two joints you want to draw straight lines going down and to the left. These lines must be parallel mind you because they are solid mechanical components and need to be reasonably precise.
This is an isometric view of the Droid D2R2 and all lines need to be parallel and coherent. Even though the right leg is mostly covered by the body it is useful to draw it anyway cause it gives a nice guide on how to position the feet.
the feet are two weird solids I know but not complicated to draw. Imagine you are just joining the smaller rectangles at the end of the legs with the bigger rectangles that form the base of the feet.
Do not forget the wheels!
How to draw Star Wars characters - the third foot
The third frontal foot is almost identical in size to the right food just positioned in front of the body and aligned to the midline.
To finish this construction off, connect the third foot neatly to body and get ready to finish the drawing and adding the necessary details!
