Futuristic Landscape Drawing

To create your futuristic landscape, focus on the different types of lines and angles you can use to shape your city. Imagine a world filled with tall buildings, floating train tracks, and vibrant signboards. Think about how you can use geometric shapes to form the structures and platforms in your drawing. As you work, let your ideas surface on your paper and don’t be afraid to experiment with different designs. Picture the details that will make your city unique, like a sleek bullet train zipping through the air or colorful windows that catch the light. Remember, this is your chance to let your imagination run free as you build a stunning scene that showcases your vision of the future!

Time Needed: 45 minutes

1. Draw a Platform

   

   Begin by drawing a platform with railings in the foreground by creating long horizontal lines as shown. Using a ruler for this tutorial will be a big help!

2. Add the Railing Balusters

   

   Add evenly spaced vertical strips to form the balusters of the railing.

3. Outline the Buildings

   

   Outline tall buildings framing the edges of the drawing.

4. Draw the Train Tracks

   

   Draw a long horizontal strip between the two buildings to create the floating train tracks.

5. Add a Bullet Train

   

   Add a bullet train passing along the train tracks. Then, outline its windows.

6. Draw More Buildings

   

   Fill in the background with more rectangular buildings. Add some variation in the shapes as shown.

7. Attach the Signboards

   

   Attach large rectangular signboards to some of the buildings.

8. Add the Windows

   

   Add square and long rectangular windows on the buildings.

9. Color the Futuristic Landscape Drawing

   

   First, use a very dark shade of blue for the platform, train tracks, and bullet train. Next, color the train windows yellow. Fill the railings with dark purple. Now, color some building windows yellow and others dark purple. Use bright colors like teal, pink, and red to add pops of color to the signboards, the tops of buildings, and the base of the train tracks. Then, color the buildings with a gradient from shades of purple to pink. Finally, fill the sky with a deep blue color.
