About This Article
To draw Iron Man, start by lightly sketching a rectangle for the body and an oval for the head. Add two big diamond shapes for his legs and sketch in four ovals and two rectangles for arms. Finish his arms and legs with sketched rectangles and draw connecting lines to bring your sketched shapes together. Then, draw any additional details you want, erase the sketched guidelines, and add color to bring your Iron Man drawing to life! For tips on drawing Iron Man while he's flying, read on!
