In this really simple drawing lesson the team of Drawingforall.net will show you how to draw Batman’s logo.

This Batman logo drawing tutorial consists of several very simple steps, each of which has an extremely simple and understandable description. So, let’s start the tutorial and learn how to draw Batman’s logo!

How to draw Batman’s logo step by step

Step 1: Sketch the guidelines for the sign

To draw Batman’s logo correctly, you must first create the guidelines of the drawing. In the center of the sheet of paper, draw two perpendicular lines. That is, the lines that intersect at right angles.  Note that the horizontal line should be much longer than the vertical.

Step 2: Draw the outer oval of Batman’s logo

Now using the guidelines from the first step draw an oval as in our example. The crossing of the lines must be exactly in the middle of the oval. To check the proportionality of your Batman’s logo drawing, just look at it through the mirror, and then all the errors in the proportions will be noticeable.

Step 3: Add the smaller inner oval

Inside the oval draw another one, but smaller and also perfectly smooth. Try to make these two lines equal in shape across the entire area of the picture. The distance between these two lines must be equal. You have now created the frame for the Batman logo.

Step 4: Sketch the bat head and ears

Inside of the ovals, drawn earlier, draw the contours of the head and wings of the bat. The guidelines will help you to draw these details perfectly. This part should be perfectly centered within the outline. And again, to check the accuracy of proportions, you can use a mirror.

Step 5: Sketch the outline of the bat’s wings

Now, draw the outlines of the bat’s wings. They should be parallel to the ovals you drew in the first steps. Note that both the frame lines and the bat wings must stay at the same distance from each other on each side.

Step 6: Draw the bottom edge of Batman’s logo

Draw the lower part of the bat using smooth, curved lines. Make sure the left and right sides of the logo remain as symmetrical as possible. The lower section consists of several “teeth”: two on the sides for the wing edges, two closer to the center for the membranes, and one in the middle for the tail. The side and central teeth should be of equal length, while the ones between them are noticeably shorter.

Step 7: Finalize and bold the Batman logo

At this stage, erase all the construction lines and darken the outlines of Batman’s logo. The sign is almost finished. Make all the lines clean and bold. You can use a darker pencil, marker, or ink to finalize your Batman logo drawing.

Step 8: Darken the rim and bat

Now it’s time to finalize the logo. You can color the Batman logo in various ways – for example, using pencils, markers, paints, or digital tools. Additionally, you can color the inside of the logo around the bat outline yellow or use a light gray, depending on the style you choose.

Batman is one of the most popular and charismatic comic book characters of all time. He is also among the earliest superheroes to reach massive worldwide fame.

In this lesson, we recreated Batman’s logo from the Golden and Silver Ages of comics. However, it’s worth noting that the logo has changed many times over the years, taking on completely different shapes and proportions.

Using the steps shown above, you can draw any version of the Batman emblem – whether it’s from the comics, video games, animated series, or movies.

This tutorial will also be very useful if you plan to draw Batman himself, helping you give the character an authentic look and the right details.

You can also try drawing Spider-Man’s logo, another famous emblem from a different universe, easily recognizable both in comics and in the real world – for example, on clothing and merchandise.
