Hello everyone and welcome to drawing a guide on how to draw a shield for kids! Shields are known from the most ancient times and were the first means of protection against cold weapons. There is a huge number of different types of shields – metal, wooden, round, elongated, big, small, and so on.

Step 1

The shield will be drawn in half a turn, so first of all sketch an oval as the main shape.

Step 2

Inside the large oval, depict another one oval.

Step 3

Give a little volume with a couple of curved lines as in picture number three.

Step 4

In the middle of the shield draw the part which is called a “shield boss”.

Step 5

Draw round rivets that surround the shield. In the central part draw lines of wood.

Step 6

Erase all unnecessary lines to get such a nice shield as in my example!

Step 7

Paint out the shield in gray and brown or leave it in black and white as in the step number six.
