Few modern parents know that today's mega-popular cartoon characters - Transformers - are a continuation of a story that dates back to 1980. Of course, in the countries of the current CIS they even heard about them then, and the real boom began after the release of the animated series "Transformers: Prime".
The secret of popularity
What is the secret of such incredible fame of these favorite boys and girls, as well as their parents? Indeed, in addition to cartoons themselves and toys created based on them, there are always a variety of comics, coloring books, board games with their image, but it’s not worth talking about school notebooks, pencil cases and other accessories, and the demand for them does not fall over time, but, on the contrary, increases. It's actually quite simple. The story is based on the long-standing struggle between good and evil, but taking into account the requirements of modern times, the roles of the main characters of the cartoon are played by Autobots and Decepticons. If you follow the plot, then evil alien creatures called Decepticons wanted to take over the Earth, destroying the bulk of the people and enslaving the rest, but the Autobots, led by the fearless Optimus Prime, came to the aid of the planet's population in time. They protected the earthlings from attack. However, the battle did not come to a final conclusion, and the Decepticons did not abandon their attempts to capture. And the Autobots still stand guard over people. Each character, no matter whether he is positive or negative, has human traits, which attracts the viewer to them, helps to better understand and feel the plot.
Everyone loves to draw
Except role-playing games, modeling, reading and coloring, children love to draw. Depending on the type of character of the child, as well as on the circumstances prevailing at one time or another, they can, without being distracted, do this for hours, especially if we're talking about about creating images of beloved characters and various scenes from their lives on a sheet of paper. Parents should be prepared for the fact that their child will sooner or later ask them how to draw a transformer or someone else. Don’t worry and give up ahead of time, because it’s much easier than it seems at first. First sharpened with a simple pencil you need to sketch out the main lines of the torso and head. It is very important to ensure their uniform arrangement and distribution in accordance with the size of the sheet. Then, depending on the hero being depicted, elements of clothing or weapons corresponding to him are applied to this base. Step by step instructions Even a beginner can easily master how to draw a transformer.
Let's start work
Having prepared a sheet of paper, a simple pencil, paints or markers, you can safely get down to business. Considering that most children are fans of the leader of the Autobots, we will look at how to draw a transformer step by step, using Optimus Prime as an example. We will not return to creating the foundation again; we will start immediately with its distinctive features. What sets Optimus apart from other Transformers? Of course, the helmet, the weapon and, most importantly, the color. Determine for yourself the basic pose and size of the future image, because how to draw Transformers (Prime) will mainly depend on this.
1. We plan very thin lines location of the main parts of the body. It will be convenient for beginners to use ordinary rectangles and ovals for this. Arrange them depending on how you see the final image. Thin pencil lines can then be easily removed with an eraser.
2. After the sketches of our hero are located on the sheet, we move on to the body parts. Special attention you need to pay attention to the character's head. It's easy, just copy the original. After all, despite the fact that all the faces of transformers are very similar to human ones, they always have a helmet on their head, and it is much easier to depict its exact straight lines.
3. Apply strokes to finer details on the body. Do not try to exactly repeat the original, because even professionals are not always able to accurately perform such complex technical touches. The basics, such as a protective vest and shoulder pads, will be enough. After finishing the work, they will be additionally highlighted with the appropriate colors.
4. Draw hands. To do this, we give the rectangles that designated them at the very beginning the required form, add pointed ends on the protective gloves.
5. Particular emphasis should be placed on the legs. Without going into the smallest details, this is not difficult to do. Steel protective knee pads are the main thing that should be depicted.
6. We outline the main contours of the entire drawing, and remove unnecessary ones using an eraser. There is no need to rush at this final stage. By slowly moving from one area of the image to another, you can not only emphasize the most necessary details, but also come up with something of your own.
7. All that remains is to decorate. Remember that the drawing must be appropriate for the child’s age. After all, there are huge differences in how children of 5 and 10 years old paint. Therefore, when creating a drawing that your child will then work on with colored pencils, paints or felt-tip pens, try to make his work as easy as possible.
No more than two repetitions are enough to understand how to draw a transformer with a pencil, and after that it takes no more than five to ten minutes to create an Autobot or Decepticon on paper.

After all, small sizes do not allow the development of large physical strength. Everything has to be obtained with the help of intelligence and ingenuity. Like all short guys, he tries to prove to others that even he is capable of something. This is especially true for speed.
