Let’s Get Started!!!
How To Draw A Monster Truck Step 1: Draw the two big wheels – the most important part of the monster truck! The wheels do not have to look exactly like the ones in the picture. You can just draw two big circles. Use a stencil if you need to or trace around a circular object like a plastic lid.
Step 2: Add the body of the truck. Keep it simple to start.
Step 3: Add accessories like the roll bar and the bumpers.
Final Step: Draw the suspension and shocks connecting the wheels to the body of the truck.
Kids can add flames and colorful designs to make the monster truck their own.
