Looking for simple dragon drawings are you? Well, my friend you are just in the right place.
I am going to show you, through this tutorial, how to realize a simple drawing of a dragon. I'd say a very stylized and fun one. So grab your favorite pencil and start drawing with me!
Dragons are a bit complicate to draw aren't they? At least the western style dragons. They have the head of a reptile, the neck of a giraffe and the body of a dinosaur plus a long and flexible tail not to mention the wings!
So I understand it may seem daunting to start drawing. Where to start from??
Stay calm and breath. As usual we'll start by defining basic shapes that we'll use as a skeleton upon which to build our drawing of a dragon.

In the picture I have drawn in red the very backbone of our drawing. With few lines I have decided approximately the size of the head, of the body, the length of the legs and even sketched a possible position for the tail.
A couple of lines are really important here: the spine, which continues in the tail and the simple bones of the leg. Nothing fancy as you can see but enough to give me an idea of the pose and general proportion of the dragon.

In this second picture I have "wrapped" the skeleton with a bit of flash, sketched in the shape of the head and added the wings in green.
As you can see everything is super sketchy at this stage and you should keep it like that. Many things can and will change during the drawing.
However now we have a better idea on the general layout of the dragon and how the various parts interact with each other.
