In this guide, I’ll walk through how to draw a unicorn head front view using simple geometric shapes. This is a symmetrical drawing and it’s fully composed of angular lines. The design doesn’t require complex curves or shading, so it’s easy to follow even if you’re new to this type of style. The unicorn is drawn in 21 steps.
Key Visual Elements to Note Before Drawing
- Large triangle horn placed at the center
- Pointed ears with interior line detailing
- Symmetrical polygon eyes
- Multiple shapes forming the muzzle and jaw
- Sharp angular outlines for the mane and neck
Once you’re done with this one, you might want to try other stylized animal heads like a tiger, sheep, or cow. All of them follow different style to experiment with.
Understanding the Structure of the Drawing Guide
This unicorn drawing tutorial uses a clear color-coded system to guide the process:
- Red Color: shows the current lines to be drawn in the active step
- Black Color: shows the lines already drawn in previous steps
The complexity of this guide is low to medium. All the shapes are straight-lined, and the symmetry makes it predictable, but it helps to follow the steps closely to maintain proportion.
