How to Draw a Monocular

As has been said repeatedly in previous articles, our artists want to show you how to draw everything in this beautiful world. And this article will be devoted to how to draw a monocular. This item, which has long been not so popular, and which has already been replaced by binoculars, was very popular around the world and was the assistant of hundreds of discoverers.

 

Step 1

We begin many drawing lessons with a simple cylinder, and this simple instruction is no exception. To draw the cylinder correctly, first sketch two simple straight lines. Then, on one side draw an oval, and on the other side a “C” shaped curve.

Step 2

Now let’s turn this simple cylinder into something more like a monocular sketch. To do this, depict the outlines of the front face of the monocular and the lens, as is done by the artists of Drawingforall.net.

Step 3

All modern monoculars have different modes, which can be customized using special thumbscrews that wrap the body. So, draw these very thumbscrew with the help of several elementary transverse and longitudinal lines.

Step 4

Our drawing of the monocular is almost complete, and we just have to make it more voluminous and solid. To do this, we need to portray some shadows on the body and some glare on the lenses.

Above, we showed you how to draw a monocular using four literally elementary steps. But using these simple steps you can draw not only a monocular, but also a telescope and even binoculars, simply by adding a second “eye” and connecting them with the help of such a bridge and adding a few thumbscrews.

The team of Drawingforall.net really hopes that you were able to accurately repeat everything that you saw above. Try to draw a monocular separately, or in the hands of a military man or a sailor.
