How to Draw Zeus

Draw the Head.
This part of the body, as in the case of other people, should be outlined in the form of a simple circle.
Draw the hair.
Use long and flowing lines for this.
Draw the torso.
Draw the upper torso first, then the part of the clothing covering the thighs.
Draw a laurel wreath and ears.
First, create the branches of the wreath, then add the leaves. Sketch the ears with a pair of curved lines.
Draw the beard of Zeus.
First sketch out the top line of the beard, then the bottom edge as in my example.
Add the facial details.
Depict the eyes. Add highlights inside them using circles. Then add the eyebrows and mouth.
Draw the limbs of Zeus.
Using smooth lines, depict the arms first, then the legs. Sketch the line of clothing on the torso.
Erase the guidelines.
Try not to touch on the important lines of the drawing. After that, you can trace your Zeus drawing.
Color Zeus.
Color the laurel wreath green and leave the hair and clothes white.
