How to draw a Turtum : Printable Version

Start by drawing an almost circular shape. This will be your Turtum's body and shell.

Next draw the outline of the shell and add three little legs. Turtums do have four legs, but in this view you can only see three.

Give your front legs a little more detail. Add an ear, cheek and mouth. Lastly draw two arches for your Turtums face, like so.

Make a line curving from the bottom of the ear to the back of your Turtum directly underneath the edge of it's shell. Then draw in one eye.

Add a little pattern along the base of your Turtum's shell and draw a large cross shape on the shell itself.

Go around the edge of your cross, creating a shield shape. Add small spots to your Turtum's legs.

Go around the outside of the shield once more to give it a border. Then erase some of your lines around the base of your Turtum's shell to make it look like this.

Erase all your extra lines and add a little pupil inside your Turtum's eye. Congratulations, your Turtum is now complete.

If you wish, add some colour and shading, this can really help make your drawing look alive.
