How to draw a big truck: step-by-step tutorial

Step 1 – Frame the cab and elongated cargo section

First, depict the outlines of the large car using barely visible lines. At this stage, the cab and long cargo area should be clearly visible.

Step 2 – Adjust the body edges and detail the bottom

Draw the front arch using a semicircular line. Now use smooth lines to correct the outline of the body. Finish this stage by depicting a line at the bottom of the cargo area.

Step 3 – Draw the big door and window of the truck

Now let’s move on to the cabin to draw the details. Start by drawing the windshield and side window. Next, use simple straight lines to depict the door and decorative lines on the cabin.

Step 4 – Mount the tall vertical mirror and handle

In the front lower corner of the window, depict a vertically elongated rear-view mirror. Next, sketch the visible side of the radiator grille. Complete the stage by drawing the handle in the lower right corner of the door.

Step 5 – Draw the rows of big wheels of the truck

Carefully get rid of all unnecessary construction lines. Now carefully depict the wheels. Draw the rims inside the wheels, which should have a perfectly round shape, like the wheels.

Step 6 – Refine the cargo area lower frame

Now carefully depict the details at the bottom of the cargo area as the artists of Drawcarz.com did. In order to check the correctness of the drawn details, you can look at your big truck drawing through a mirror.

Make the lines of the drawing darker and cleaner. Get rid of any remaining unnecessary lines. In addition, you can add shadows and highlights to make the large truck drawing more authentic and convincing.
