Children's drawings about the war with a pencil are light. How to draw war with a pencil step by step

Step by step instructions for practical drawing of tanks, planes and helicopters.

Items needed for work: a blank white sheet of paper good quality, a pencil with a lead of medium hardness or soft, an eraser. Compasses, ink, feather, brush, ballpoint pen, felt-tip pen - optional.

Choose a sample of military equipment that you want to draw.
With light touches of the pencil, without pressure, very carefully and carefully apply the strokes on the paper that make up the initial (first) “step” - usually it is located in the upper left corner on the pattern you have chosen.
Then take the second "step" - also without pressure and just as carefully. Follow not only the direction and curvature of the lines, but also the distance between them, that is, their relative position. The size of the drawing should match the size of your sheet of paper - not too small and not too large. The first "steps" seem to be the least difficult, but they must be carried out with particular precision, because any mistake made at the beginning of the process can ruin the final result.

The new lines for each “step” are shown in bolder in the diagram so that it is easier for you to recognize what exactly should be added to your drawing at the next step.
Continue working as before with light, thin strokes. If some line turned out to be too thick or dark, lighten it with an eraser: draw it along the line without much pressure, without trying to erase it completely.

And a few more tips.
Remember that for all the apparent complexity of some objects, they can always be reduced to simple geometric shapes: a ball, a cone, a pyramid, a cube, a parallelepiped, a cylinder.

Well, of course, say, ships do not exist on their own, but, as a rule, organically fit into the surrounding landscape. Therefore, the elements of the landscape - the sea, the river, the rocks, even if only slightly outlined - will greatly enliven and enrich the drawing.

When you have finished applying light strokes, that is, having completed the entire eight “steps” shown in the selected diagram, and making sure that all the elements of your drawing correspond to the desired image, outline them with confident pencil movements with the necessary pressure. After this final finishing, the drawing can be considered ready. If desired, you can increase the contrast of the lines using ink (using a thin brush or steel feather), a ballpoint pen, or a felt-tip pen. When the ink, paste, or ink is dry, use an eraser to remove any unnecessary pencil marks.

Remember: if the first attempts to draw do not lead to the desired result, keep trying. It is very important not to lose perseverance, patience, enthusiasm. In the end, your efforts will be crowned with complete success - at that moment you may not immediately believe yourself, but you will still be pleasantly surprised by what you have achieved.

We sincerely hope that your drawing skills will improve and the long time spent on recreating the images of all these formidable and in their own way beautiful examples of technology will not be wasted.

One of the most exciting pages in the history of the Great Patriotic War was and remains the theme of military childhood. Children and adolescents worked on an equal footing with adults at enterprises and collective farms, volunteered for the front and became children of regiments, gave their savings to the USSR Defense Fund 1 and joined partisan detachments. And on the pages of newspapers, children tried to keep up with adults: for example, to the editorial office of the Pionerskaya Pravda newspaper, as well as a number of other publications for children and youth that continued their work during the war years, children sent drawings, poems about the war, and even cartoons on German soldiers. Among the letters and drawings there are both childishly naive (see doc. N 2), and letters from schoolchildren who tried to write and draw "in an adult way." In particular, the guys mastered caricatures of the enemy - satirical genre, characteristic primarily of "adult" Soviet newspapers.

One of the most popular newspapers among schoolchildren was Pionerskaya Pravda, the printed organ of the Central and Moscow Committees of the All-Union Leninist Young Communist League. With the beginning of the Great Patriotic War, the structure of the newspaper was rebuilt to take into account wartime. Since June 1941, several special wartime headings appeared on the pages of Pionerskaya Pravda: “From the Soviet Information Bureau”, “Pioneer piggy bank of scrap metal”, etc. Stories, feuilletons, poems, cartoons as employees of the newspaper were published in the satirical heading “On the Bayonet” And famous writers both poets and readers. We publish several children's cartoons and letters to them below.

Drawings are children's weapons

Schoolchildren, to the best of their ability, tried to participate in the activities of the pioneer newspaper. Among the drawings you can find not too skillful, and quite professional. From the "adult" genre of caricatures to children's caricatures, also different in execution technique, one of the main principles passed - the image of an enemy with bestial features, more like an animal than a person. Soviet fighters and nurses in children's drawings were examples of heroism and selfless service to the Motherland.

In addition, schoolchildren responded vividly to stories about the exploits of Komsomol war heroes. So, in the drawing by V. Arkhipovsky "Death of "Tanya"", obviously, the execution of Zoya Kosmodemyanskaya, who was captured by the Germans while performing a combat mission in the village of Petrishchevo, is depicted. During interrogation, she called herself Tanya, and for the first time they learned about her feat from Peter Lidov's article "Tanya", published in the Pravda newspaper on January 27, 1942.

Children's cartoons and drawings about the war, published below, are part of a set of documents collected in wartime for display at the exhibition "Komsomol in the Patriotic War" at the State Historical Museum (SMM).

Exhibitions about heroism

At a meeting of the secretariat of the Central Committee of the All-Union Leninist Young Communist League on May 2, 1942, an official decision was made to organize an exhibition 2 that would highlight the heroism of Komsomol members and youth in the fight against the enemy at the front and in the rear. Initially, the opening of the exposition was scheduled for the anniversary of the start of the Great Patriotic War - June 22, 1942. In reality, the first exposition was deployed in 1943 in the State Historical Museum. About 40 artists and sculptors took part in the design of the exhibition. In 1944, the Central Committee of the All-Union Leninist Young Communist League decided that the exhibition should exhibit materials not only about the Komsomol, but also about Soviet youth in general, in connection with this, the exhibition became known as "Komsomol and Youth in the Patriotic War."

In January 1949, the exposition "Komsomol and Youth in the Patriotic War" was included in the exhibition prepared for the 30th anniversary of the Komsomol (November 1948). In September 1949, this exhibition was called "Lenin-Stalin Komsomol". In July 1953 the exhibition was closed. The material exhibits of the exhibition were mainly transferred to Moscow museums - Historical, Revolution, Soviet Army. Documents and some material relics were transferred to the archive of the Central Committee of the All-Union Leninist Young Communist League. Later, the archival and museum collection of the Central Committee of the Komsomol was replenished with materials received from the participants in the events and their relatives. At present, the set of exhibition documents is fund M-7 "Documents of the Exhibition of the Central Committee of the Komsomol" Lenin-Stalin Komsomol "(1942-1953)" RGASPI. Separate materials of the exhibition are also included in fund N M-14 "Museum materials on the history of the youth movement in the USSR and Russia".

Published documents are stored in the fund M-7 RGASPI and reproduced with the preservation of spelling, punctuation and stylistic features of the texts.

The publication was prepared by Natalia Volkhonskaya, chief specialist of the department of scientific and information work and the scientific reference apparatus of the RGASPI.

Great Patriotic War- this is the page of our history that cannot be ignored. For a peaceful sky, for bread on the table, we owe it to our grandfathers and great-grandfathers, who, not sparing their lives, fought against a fierce enemy for the sake of a happy future for their children.

As a sign of eternal memory and respect, it is customary in our country to give veterans flowers and themed postcards made by small children's hands. Such masterpieces are more precious than any awards, because they testify that even kids know and are proud of the exploits of their ancestors. Today we will tell you how and what drawings for children about the war can be drawn on the eve of a great holiday or simply to consolidate the knowledge gained from a history lesson.

So, we bring to your attention a master class on how to draw the Patriotic War for children in stages with a pencil.

Example 1

Boys always associate war with military equipment and aviation. Tanks, helicopters, planes, various weapons - these are all the achievements of scientific progress, without which victory would have come to us at an even greater cost. Therefore, we will begin our first lesson on drawings about the war (1941-1945) for children, with detailed description how to draw a tank step by step.

First of all, we will prepare everything you need: simple and colored pencils, an eraser and a blank sheet of paper.

Continuing to improve our skills, let's draw a military aircraft:

Example 2

Definitely draw. military equipment little princesses might not like it. Therefore, for them, we have prepared separate drawings that can be used as a greeting card:

As you can see, it is not difficult for a child to draw such simple pictures about the war, the main thing is to show a little imagination and patience.

From the title it is already clear what will be discussed. We will be studying how to draw war with a pencil step by step. It will not star Wars and Darth Vader, and not even a shooter game, but a real war! Three soldiers in a trench, with heaps of military equipment. In order to draw all this, you need a lot of knowledge about military affairs. Of course, you can sit down to play WoT, but in the end you won’t draw anything. Who does not know this is such a super action with the participation of tanks, which has gathered a huge mass of gamers in our country. By the way, the yellow-faced Chinese are no less addicted to this. It seems that half of their population is involved in sports, judging by the number of Olympic medals in 2012, but the second is mired in the whirlpool of online games. For the fact that half of our population has been staring at the LCD monitor for two years now, while at the same time managing to smear the gaming mouse with greasy fingers from dinner and pour coffee on the clave ... let's all say "Thank you" Wargaming! Although God is with him. Now let's digress from tanks and try to draw military operations involving real ones. There are five steps ahead.

How to draw war with a pencil step by step

Step One First, let's outline the people in motion. Head, body position, arms, legs.
Step Two Now let's think about what will be around our soldiers: this is a fence, stones, logs. Let's show their contours.
Step Three Let's dress our combatants: helmet, pants, boots. Let's supply one of them with a bag. Draw the profile of the face closest to us. We wrap the fence with barbed wire.
Step Four Let's add details: thorns on the wire, belts on people's clothes, a shoulder blade, etc.
Step Five Let's do the hatching. There are darker areas on the clothes at the folds. Darken the areas on the pillars. Well, here are the soldiers against the backdrop of a military and completely non-picturesque landscape.
