Are you interested in drawing a crow? Then follow this simple step-by-step method.

Step 1: Draw the beak, which has a sharp appearance, where the upper part is a little wider than the lower.

Step 2: Draw the rounded head that appears from just above the beak and curves backwards with inclination.

Step 3: The neck of the crow needs to be drawn through small spiky lines. This will be followed by drawing the rounded lower body.

Step 4: Its upper body needs to be drawn by making slanting lines with spikes on it.

Step 5: Make a sharp V shape for its wings.

Step 6: Complete the wing with a rounded curve ahead.

Step 7: Draw the leg of the crow with sharp toes and claws.

Step 8: Draw the lower half-body with spikes.

Step 9: Draw the other leg also.

Step 10: Create a narrow V-shaped tail feather behind it, followed by a long, slanting line.

Step 11: This line takes a narrow U-turn forward to complete a tail feather at the back.

Step 12: Add a piece of wing beside, for the whole tail feather.

Step 13: Draw feather patterns inside the wing.

Step 14: Create the next set of patterns behind it.

Step 15: Add a subtle pattern to the lower portion of the wing.

Step 16: Make wing pattern on the upper side.

Step 17: Provide patterns for the remaining portion of the wing.

Step 18: Now draw vertical stripes for the tail feather.

Step 19: Draw details for the beak, head and neck. Use dash like lines and commas.

Step 20: Draw a long line behind its legs. It is a branch for the bird to sit on.

Step 21: Complete the lower portion of the branch along with a leaf attached to a twig.

Step 22: Provide a round eye behind the beak.

Step 23: Color the eye leaving a tiny dot at the centre.

Step 24: Hence you have completed a curious crow drawing.
