This guide shows how to draw Aerodactyl from Pokémon in 18 steps. The character has a clear pterosaur shape, so the sketch focuses on simple body curves, wing shapes, and the open jaw.
Main Features of Aerodactyl
Aerodactyl has a simple fossil reptile design. These notes help place the main parts of the body:
- Head: Long snout with sharp teeth inside the jaw.
- Eyes: Small angled eyes close to the top of the head.
- Body: Smooth rounded body.
- Wings: Large bat-like wings with simple inner shapes.
- Arms and Legs: Short limbs with clawed fingers and toes.
- Tail: Thin tail with an arrow shaped tip.
- Skin: Light purple tone with darker wing membranes.
After this one, drawing Mega Delphox, Mega Chesnaught, Mega Greninja or Mega Dragonite can build a nice Pokémon collection.
How the Aerodactyl Tutorial Works
The steps use a simple color system that keeps everything clear:
- Red Color: Lines added in the current step.
- Black Color: Lines already completed.
- Grey Color: Light sketch lines for body placement.
