How to Draw Ice Skates

We will arrive at a finished drawing of ice skates by creating one area at a time. The drawing will take 9 steps to complete as we continue to draw each section which will get us closer to the completed drawing. The completed drawing will be beautified with color resulting in a artwork you can be proud of!

Time Needed: 30 minutes

1. Outline The Ice Skates

   

   Start by drawing the shape of boots to outline the ice skates.

2. Draw The Stiching

   

   First, draw a curving line from the ankle to the toe cap. Next, add a line near the bottom to create the outsole.

3. Attach The Blade

   

   Attach the blade by adding a thin, curving shape at the bottom of the ice skates.

4. Add Stanchions

   

   Add curved lines between the outsole and blade to form the stanchions.

5. Draw The Lacing

   

   Draw several curved lines to create the lacing.

6. Outline The Hook

   

   Form a curved shape with a slightly pointed tip at the very top for the skates to hang on to.

7. Add The Shoelaces

   

   Attach diagonal lines on the topmost eyelet to form the shoelaces hanging from the hook.

8. Form The Rest Of The Shoelaces

   

   Draw the tied part of the shoelaces by creating curved lines. Next, form the excess shoelaces in between the hanging ice skates by drawing four thin shapes similar to the illustration. Don’t forget to add the tips of the shoelaces by drawing a shaded rectangular shape.

9. Complete The Ice Skates Drawing

   

   Let’s complete our ice skates illustration by adding some color. First, use a red crayon to fill in the hook. Next, use a gray crayon to color the blades. Then, shade the sole of the ice skates with a black crayon. Now, use a cream colored crayon to color the laces. Finally, use a light blue crayon or even white to fill in the rest of the ice skates!
