Hey guys, how you been, I'm Enrique and welcome to Easy Things to Draw. Today I'll teach you how to draw baby Groot, you can find the pencils that I use to draw this drawing in the video description on my YouTube channel, but if you don't have time for that, I use a kind of charcoal pencil, these get dark pretty fast so you have to be careful with them. I also use the eraser from the back of my Mechanical Pencil, I like this because it is white, as some eraser with colors can dye the paper, although as I have said many times, you can use the materials of your prefer. If there are any questions, do not hesitate to ask me.
Also, if you want it, you can draw following the video tutorial with me, but you should pause if it goes too fast, since it is sped up three times. If you want to see it in real-time, you can find that in the description on YouTube, but unlike the video on my main channel, the real-time video has no comment.
Having said all this, let's start with the drawing. The first thing I want to do is draw a general position of baby Groot, this is without much detail because that I will be adding it later. So I add the shape of his head, body, his feet, which remind me of the feet of an elephant. Once I have done the general position that I want, I think about this body, for me, from the head down, it's an adult body, the head is what gives baby Groot the appearance of a child and this it also looks like an emoji.
The bigger you make the head, it will look more like a child. I find interesting that the eyes are quite small or normal considering the portion of the head. One thing a part of all this, is that Groot is one of my favorite characters since I love the design of him in the first movie.
Then it continued with the neck and I have to make sure to connect the connectors in the right way. As I was saying earlier the body of baby Groot is more like an adult since you can find pecs and that sort of thing. I also want to add deeper eyes and I do this by making them a little bit darker.
After doing this, I star detailing more the body parts. The body of baby Groot doesn't look so human but still follows the anatomy of one, for example, baby Groot possesses Deltoid, Biceps, triceps, etc. I darken the eyes a little more because I want them to pop out and I also add a smile on the face, which reminds me of the emoji that smiles.
Now I try to figure out how to draw the shoulders and I detail again the muscles of the chest, which are quite similar to humans only with the difference that I add these branches and the appearance of a tree, like if they were made of wood. When you look at the extra things I've put in, it seems like it doesn't follow the human proportion, but it does, it's pretty close to doing it…
I continued adding a little bit of shade, this gives more dimension to the drawing. With this drawing I'm adding more elements than I normally do and also I'm concentrating more on certain areas, for example, right now I haven't drawn anything in the hands and this is not normal in me, because when I normally draw, I like everything to be gradual, you know, I like adding details little by little on the whole drawing I don't usually concentrate on just one area. Another thing that I do now, is trying to fade or alter the darkness in some way because to me, it looks a little bit like a massive body.How to draw baby groot step by step easy.
Then I go down to his feet and interconnect some pieces. All the pieces have to relate to each other. For an experienced artist or the person who designed this character is easier to draw, but for someone with less experience, it has to be very careful to not leave the muscles like a pile of wood.
It continued with its rib cage and this part is not anatomically correct, because it looks like a explode tree.
Right now I'm just adding details and darken some parts, you know, adding some shadow patterns to make everything look a little more organized, that way you can differentiate each part and also know what's going on, I also do this by adding halftones and some parts leave them completely dark.
I still have to define more the hands and I don't want them to look like the hands of Pinocchio. For this character, it needs to have rivets and more dimension. Then I cleaned a little bit with the eraser since the pencil of charcoal can leave some dirties.
Then I add a thicker line around the contour of baby Groot, this is something that looks good in some drawings and I like how it looks in this, especially in the head. This is something that I usually do with marker, but for this drawing, I wanted to do it with a pencil.How to Draw Baby Groot Face.
Then I only add a little bit more shadow in some places and that's it. Hopefully, this tutorial has been helpful to you, if you want to learn how to improve in your drawings you can go to my YouTube channel "Easy Things to Draw 101", there I will teach you how to draw step by step.
