Learn how to draw these ten numbers in three dimension, and of course any combination is then possible. Even “2021” to celebrate the New Year!
Numbers seem to involve a lot more curves than letters do, but the basic process is the same as with my “How to Draw 3D Letters” tutorial. Draw nice big block numbers first, that add the angled sides, and finally connect them all to create the back edge. Color the sides a little more to add shadows and you have a very 3D looking shape.
The tutorial you can download below has the two pages shown above, plus a coloring and tracing page too, just to offer a few more options.
Materials to draw 3D Letters
Note: This post contains affiliate links.
- Drawing Paper. Don’t substitute it with copy paper or construction paper. The surface will get fuzzy, erasing might cause holes, and the colors will generally not look as bright. *affiliate link
- Stabilo Markers. The large pack provides lots of fun color choices, several shades of each color, including a few choices for skin. The tips are perfect for coloring, and there’s even a promise that they will work after being uncapped for 8 weeks! *affiliate link
- Pencil. The Ticonderoga brand are the most reliable, make nice dark lines when you need them, and are the easiest to erase. *affiliate link
- Black Sharpie Marker. Great for making a crisp outline to your drawing. Use them when you want your outline show up, but not be so heavy that it detracts from other things. *affiliate link
