Wei's China map stick figure picture encyclopedia with background color
In this digital age of information, let's go back to paper and explore how to use a piece of white paper to outline China's great rivers and mountains. Imagine a simple pencil jumping across a blank sheet of paper and turning a magnificent 9.6 million square kilometers of scenery into black and white art. Here, I'm going to share with you a few steps and tips to help you draw a beautiful stick figure of a map of China.
Preparation Phase:
- Tool selection: Make sure you have a good texture drawing pen or HB pencil, as well as an eraser that is sensitive to light, and a piece of paper that is large enough to be A3 or larger.
- ResourcesFirst, find a clear vector map of China on the Internet as a template, print it out for later use, or skillfully memorize the outlines and locations of provinces, municipalities and autonomous regions.
Drawing Steps:
- Outline: Start with a general outline, such as drawing the shape of the "big rooster" in Xinjiang, which can be used as a reference point to locate other provinces. Remember, simplicity is key, don't let the lines get too complicated.
- Fill in the details: Gradually add and refine sections, such as the curve of Heilongjiang and the "elephant's head" of Guangdong, these unique geographical features will help you more accurately depict each province.
- Simplify and connect: Once you've finished the layout, remember to simplify the overly complex lines to ensure that the entire map is both geographically accurate and artistic.
- The lines are clear: It's important to keep the lines continuous and fluid, so that the whole map looks uniform and layered.
Tips:
- Mnemonics: Using the memory of the geographical location relationship between provinces, such as "Shandong Wangtai Mountain", can help you compose more quickly and accurately.
- Practice multiple timesHand-drawn skills, like any other skill, require constant practice to improve, so try them a few times and you'll find yourself becoming more familiar with Chinese maps.
- Creative additions: After the basic framework is completed, consider adding some symbolic patterns or city names to the map to add a sense of hierarchy.
