MOUNTAIN SKETCH HOW TO
If you want to take this further, you can follow this tutorial on how to shade and colour your mountain range. Note that here we now show that between each two secondary ridge lines, we get a valley. We’re just looking for a sense of form here, and the viewer will do the rest of the work. This gives the form to the skeleton we drew.
Add all the detailĪt this stage, we draw all the details of the terrain that falls away from all of our ridges. These can overlap, but if they do, make sure one is clearly in front of the other. These will define the bulk and form of the range, and will give you valleys between them that lead into the range. Draw in ridgelines that come down from the peaks towards the viewer, away from the viewer. Draw the secondary ridges that come down from the peaksĮven though your primary ridgeline goes left to right, the peaks have many other ridges, and they will go in all directions. If you want it to be truly horizontal, make sure you’re ridgeline ends up at about the same level it began at. I’ve decided at the far right to bring the ridgeline around, and have it come out towards the viewer. At the other end, step down in the same way. Start at where the base of the range is going to be – and draw a line that steps up as you get to successively higher peaks. With a horizontal mountain range, you’ll definitely see the ridgeline.

If you want to go deeper into the north-south version, check out this earlier tutorial on mountain ranges. I had a question on reddit on how to draw mountain ranges that go east-to-west rather than north to south. Here’s a very quick tutorial on the difference. This is definitely the week of mountain ranges.
