Materials You'll Need
Before we begin, make sure you have the following materials:
- Drawing paper
- Pencils (HB, 2B, 4B)
- Eraser
- Sharpener
- Colored pencils (optional)
Step 1: Triceratops
Let's start our drawing journey with the mighty Triceratops.:
1. Begin by lightly sketching the basic shapes of the Triceratops. Draw a large oval for the body, a smaller oval for the head, and connect them with a neck.
2. Add details to the head by sketching the eyes, nostrils, and of course, the iconic three horns on top. Don't forget to include the frills on the back of its head!
3. Move on to the body and sketch the legs, tail, and the distinctive bony plates that run down its back.
4. Once you're satisfied with the sketch, start outlining the Triceratops using a darker pencil to bring out the details. Pay attention to the folds and texture on its skin.
5. Erase any unnecessary guidelines and add shading to give your Triceratops a three-dimensional look. You can use different shades of pencils to enhance the depth and texture.
6. If you're feeling adventurous, you can even use colored pencils to add vibrant tones to your drawing.
Step 2: Stegosaurus
Next on our journey, we will explore how to draw the marvelous Stegosaurus.:
1. Begin by sketching the basic shapes of the Stegosaurus. Draw a large oval for the body, a smaller oval for the head, and connect them with a neck.
2. Add details to the head, including the eyes, nostrils, and the triangular plates on its top.
3. Move on to the body and sketch the legs, tail, and the iconic double row of spikes running down its back.
4. Once you're satisfied with the sketch, start outlining the Stegosaurus using a darker pencil. Pay attention to the shapes and curves that make up its body and tail.
5. Erase any unnecessary guidelines and add shading to give your Stegosaurus a realistic appearance. Focus on emphasizing the varying textures of its skin and the shadows cast by the spikes.
6. Let your creativity shine by experimenting with colors to bring your Stegosaurus to life. Look up references to get an idea of the dinosaur's likely color patterns.
Congratulations, you've successfully drawn two remarkable dinosaurs, the Triceratops and the Stegosaurus! With practice, your drawings will only improve, and you can even start exploring other species of dinosaurs.
Remember, drawing dinosaurs is not just a fun activity; it also helps you develop your observation and fine motor skills. So keep experimenting, be patient, and let your imagination run wild as you bring these magnificent creatures back to life through your artwork!

Everyone can draw and so can you, no previous knowledge is needed. The drawing book will show you how to draw these interesting dinosaurs; Triceratops, Stegosaurus, Tarbosaurus and many more, step by step. The pages don't contain text, and suitable for children who don't know how to read yet, but are eager to draw by themselves. Recommended for kindergarten and up. Enjoy.
