Shrimps don't just live in the ocean, they are also found in freshwater rivers and lakes. It is a unique aquatic creature different from fish!

Although they don't have a tail and their body shape is not suitable for swimming fast. But by jumping, they can also quickly avoid predators.

If you guys don't believe me, you can try and see if you can catch a shrimp with your bare hands! Even out of the water, you can't catch them easily.

In this drawing tutorial today, we are going to learn how to draw a beautiful shrimp step by step.

We will start by drawing its head, then its body, tail, legs and whiskers. This is not a very realistic shrimp and the lines are relatively simple, so you won't have to worry about that.

How to Draw a Shrimp Step by Step

Step 1 Trace the outline of this shrimp's head and add three lines to its left side.

Step 2 Draw a circle for the eye. Draw another circle in its center and blacken it.

Step 3 Add spine-like shapes to the top of the shrimp's head. If you touch the shrimp's head you can definitely feel it.

Step 4 Draw part of the body of this shrimp. You can think of it as drawing three overlapping eggs.

Step 5 Draw the rest of the body. You should observe that the body is gradually getting smaller from top to bottom.

Step 6 Draw the tail of this shrimp at the bottom of the body. It looks like a shell or the tail of a rocket.

Step 7 On the upper part of the body, near the head, add some thin lines for legs.

Step 8 Add two more strong legs. Then draw this shrimp's whiskers and some bubbles.

Step 9 The last thing is to color this shrimp. You will also need to color the rest of this drawing as well as the water environment.
