How to Draw Transformers Optimus Prime: Easy Step-by-Step Art Lesson for Kids

Here you’ll find an easy step-by-step tutorial video for how to draw a Transformer and a Transformer Coloring Page. It will help make sure all his details are added to his drawing.

Transformer Drawing

Part of the fascination with Transformers is that they DO have so many parts to them, so learning how to draw Optimus Prime, one of the most famous of the Transformer characters, needs to be a study in how to get as many details in as possible. At the same time though, I’m sure there are many Transformer fans that are still in elementary school, and need something that is not way beyond their abilities either.

This Optimus Prime tutorial hopefully lands in the middle, with all the panels and attachments that make him look so cool, but not in any complicated poses. This step by step lesson shows what he could look like with a straight point of view, so all his shapes are symmetrical and easier to see.

Please note: If you try this tutorial and like what you created, email a photo of your drawing to [email protected]. Sharing is one of the best ways to inspire other young artists!
